Residential Hardscaping & Outdoor Living
Create a Functional and Beautiful Outdoor Space
Hardscaping provides the essential structure of your yard—think patios, walkways, retaining walls, fire pits, and outdoor kitchens. These non-living, durable features create the backbone of your outdoor environment, adding form and long-lasting functionality.
Plus, hardscaping isn’t just beautiful—it’s an investment that adds lasting value. According to a report from the National Association of Realtors, well-designed patios can recoup up to 95% of their cost at resale, and outdoor kitchens may recover 100%. Even in Upstate New York’s cooler climate, high-quality outdoor spaces can significantly boost a home’s value and marketability.
Whether you’re dreaming of patios and walkways in Albany that connect your space or a custom fire pit to enjoy year-round, our hardscape design focuses on quality, style, and lasting value.
At the same time, landscaping—plants, trees, shrubs, and lawns—adds color, texture, and seasonal interest. Together, hardscaping and landscaping work hand in hand to transform your yard into a cohesive, inviting space tailored to your lifestyle.
Blue Spruce Landscape and Design is a family-owned and operated business proudly serving Albany, NY and the greater Capital Region. We combine local expertise with personalized service to craft outdoor spaces that are as beautiful as they are functional, designed for relaxation, entertainment, and making memories year-round.
Seamless Design That Goes Beyond the Water’s Edge
A pool and upgraded backyard are more than just luxuries—they’re investments that pay dividends in higher home value, personal health, and family happiness. An inground pool should feel like part of your backyard—not just dropped into it. As the Capital Region’s exclusive River Pools® partner, Blue Spruce designs complete outdoor spaces that bring it all together.
From patios and walkways to outdoor kitchens, lighting, and plantings, we design pool areas that are made for living, not just swimming. Whether you’re entertaining or unwinding, your space will look great, function well, and feel like home.
Brought to Life with Expert Design
Your outdoor space is unique, and your design should be too. At Blue Spruce Landscape and Design, we use 3D visuals to help you see your ideas before we start building. We work closely with you to make sure your outdoor space fits your lifestyle and feels just right.
Extend Your Outdoor Season
Fire pits are not just cozy features. According to a survey from HomeLight, they provide about a 67% return on investment, making them a brilliant addition to your backyard. Blue Spruce designs custom fire features that blend seamlessly with your hardscape and landscaping, perfect for chilly early fall evenings in Albany and the Capital Region. Whether you want a sleek, modern fire pit or a rustic stone fireplace, we build durable, beautiful focal points that create inviting gathering spots year-round.
Elevate Your Backyard Living and Entertaining
An outdoor kitchen transforms your backyard into a functional and stylish space for cooking and entertaining, customized to fit your lifestyle. Beyond enhancing daily enjoyment, outdoor kitchens often recoup 100% of their cost at resale, making them a smart investment in your home’s value, according to the National Association of Realtors.
