What we build

HARDSCAPE THAT HOLDS. PUNCH-LISTS THAT GET FINISHED.

Six services. One family. We hand-pick what we take on each season, so the calendar stays honest and the work stays good.

01
Avg 2–3 wks

PAVER PATIOS

Bluestone, granite, clay paver. Engineered base, edge restraint, polymeric sand. Built to outlast the freeze-thaw.

See work
02
Avg 1–2 wks

RETAINING WALLS

Engineered block, natural stone, or dry-stack rock work. Tiered, terraced, or single-run. Built to hold a hill, not just look like it.

See work
03
Avg 4–8 wks

OUTDOOR LIVING

Fire pits, pergolas, outdoor kitchens, seat walls, and dry-stack rock stacking. Designed around how you’ll actually use the yard.

WALKWAYS & STEPS

Front walks, side paths, stone steps, garden borders. The first thing visitors see. Built to stay flat.

HANDYMAN & REPAIRS

Doors that stick, drywall holes, leaky taps, sagging gutters, fence boards. The honey-do list, done.

Word of mouth

WHAT THE NEIGHBORS SAY.

They said three weeks. They were out in two. Yard was cleaner the day they left than the day they started.
KATIE & DAN R.

Patio + retaining wall
Got three quotes. CTRATH’s wasn’t the cheapest. It was the only one I actually trusted. No regrets.

Full backyard hardscape
Charlie took my call on a Saturday about a door that wouldn’t close. Braden was over Monday morning. That’s the whole story.
