Stone walkways and patios for Wilton hillside homes. Retaining walls on Belden Hill and Nod Hill slopes. Stone steps and features for Norwalk River corridor properties. We build hardscape that handles Wilton elevation changes, rocky ledge, and the river valley conditions every project requires.
Stone work that fails in Connecticut almost always fails at the base, not the surface. Frost heave, poor drainage, and inadequate compaction cause settling, cracking, and shifting within a few winters. We dig the proper depth, use the right base material, and install the stone so it moves with the ground instead of against it.
Natural stone, pavers, or flagstone. Cut to fit, set level, edged clean. Proper base depth for Connecticut frost cycles. Steps and entrance work with the right rise and run.
Walls that hold back soil without failing. Proper batter, drainage, and anchoring. Patio design graded for water runoff away from the house.
Base depth accounts for freeze and thaw cycles. Stone stays level through Connecticut winters because the base was done right the first time.

Contact UsWalkways and patios usually do not need permits. Retaining walls over four feet require Wilton Building Department review and engineered design. Conservation Commission for Norwalk River buffer zones. Tree Warden for street trees affected by hardscape. We pull permits before any excavation begins on the project.
Walkways start in the low thousands. Patios run from a few thousand to twenty thousand based on size and stone selection. Hillside retaining walls cost more because of access challenges, rocky ledge excavation, and engineered drainage requirements. Free site visit and written estimate first.
Yes. Belden Hill and Nod Hill hillside properties often need retaining walls to manage slopes and create usable yard space. We handle Building Department review for walls over four feet, install proper drainage systems behind every wall, and work the access challenges that hillside properties always present during the project.
Wilton hillside properties often have ledge close to the surface. We assess ledge conditions during the site visit and bring rock breaking equipment when needed. Sometimes ledge changes the project design or position because excavating through ledge is expensive and slow on residential masonry projects.
Yes. River corridor properties through Cannondale and Comstock have Conservation Commission buffer setbacks for the regulated zone. We follow setbacks, install erosion control during excavation, and document compliance for the town inspector throughout the project. Drainage design works within the regulatory zone.
