Construction, Remodeling & Masonry

For Connecticut's freeze-thaw climate, bluestone and high-quality concrete pavers (Cambridge, Belgard, EP Henry) are the best choices. Bluestone offers a natural, elegant look and handles temperature swings well. Concrete pavers provide more design options and colors. We recommend a minimum 6" compacted gravel base with proper pitch for drainage—critical in Fairfield County's climate.

Retaining wall costs in Fairfield County range from $28–$65 per square foot of face area, depending on the wall height, materials (fieldstone, granite, segmental block), and engineering requirements. A typical 50-linear-foot wall at 3 feet tall averages $4,200–$9,750. Walls over 4 feet require engineering and may increase costs. We provide free on-site estimates.

Yes. In addition to Fairfield County, we take on projects throughout Westchester County, including Rye, Rye Brook, Harrison, Purchase, Scarsdale, Bedford, Armonk, Pound Ridge, Larchmont, and Chappaqua, and across all five New York City boroughs: Manhattan, Brooklyn, Queens, The Bronx, and Staten Island. From brownstone backyards and front stoops to rooftop terraces and suburban patios, our crews arrive with everything needed to complete the job.

Absolutely. Outdoor remodeling is a large part of our work. We remove cracked, sunken, or dated hardscape, correct the base and drainage problems that caused the failure, and rebuild with new materials and an updated layout. We also rebuild failing retaining walls and steps, and reface existing masonry with new stone veneer.

In Greenwich and most Fairfield County towns, patios generally don't require a permit unless they're attached to a structure or within setback zones. Retaining walls over 4 feet typically require a building permit and may need engineered drawings. We handle all permit coordination for our clients and are familiar with the requirements in Greenwich, Westport, Darien, New Canaan, and all local municipalities.

Proper drainage is built into every project we do. We start with a compacted gravel base (minimum 6"), install the patio with a 1-2% pitch away from structures, and add French drains, channel drains, or dry wells as needed. In Fairfield County where clay soil is common, we often recommend additional drainage solutions to prevent water pooling and protect your investment.

We offer a 5-year craftsmanship warranty on all installations, covering workmanship issues like settling, shifting, or drainage problems. This is in addition to manufacturer warranties on materials (which can extend 15–25+ years for pavers). We stand behind our work and have been serving Fairfield County for over 15 years.

Absolutely. We design and build custom outdoor kitchens throughout Fairfield County, from simple grill islands ($2,800–$8,000) to fully-equipped kitchens with refrigeration, sinks, pizza ovens, and bar seating ($15,000–$45,000+). We use stone veneer, stacked stone, or brick to match your home's aesthetic. Gas line and electrical work are coordinated with licensed sub-contractors.
