Solved on local properties.
Every project here started with a site problem — poor drainage, an unusable slope, failing stone. Each entry shows the condition, the solution chosen, and how the work holds today.
— Featured project
Sky Hill Farm, Aldie VA
For the Sky Hill Farm project in Aldie, we handled a massive, multi-phase overhaul from the ground up. We installed structural culverts to fix the property's water drainage, then cleared the way for the heavy stone work. We laid a premium Blue Italian Marble patio, engineered a massive two-tier jointless retaining wall to hold back the grade, and built custom masonry entry piers to anchor the property's entrance. From there, we laid out natural stone steppers across the grounds and even handled the flooring for a custom horse stall. It was a heavy-duty, high-end build that required absolute precision across every square inch of the property.
Three projects, three site conditions
Basement access, residential backyard
The house had a buried basement with zero backyard access. We dug down to the footings, cut the foundation, and put in a new door. Then we engineered the retaining walls, handled the drainage, and laid a clean patio with stone steps leading up to the main yard. We didn't just add a door—we opened up the whole property and built a safe, multi-level layout that connects the house from top to bottom.
Concrete paver walkway
The old brick walkway from the driveway to the front door was uneven, shifting, and a constant tripping hazard. We tore out the failing brick, excavated down to prep a heavy aggregate base, and laid a dead-level concrete paver walkway. It completely changes the front of the house—giving them a clean, rock-solid path to the front door that won't shift or puddle.
Thermal flagstone entryway
The original concrete stoop had cracked through and heaved at the riser. We pulled it, re-graded the approach, poured a fresh concrete base and laid thermal PA bluestone.
