Landscaping and masonry in Bronxville, NY
Bronxville packs steep hillside lanes, century-old Tudors and a walkable village center into one square mile. The properties are small, the standards are not, and half the yards in the village are held up by stone that somebody built a hundred years ago.

Recent work
Lawrence Park, Cedar Knolls and Sagamore Park
Lawrence Park was laid out in the 1890s as an artists' colony on a granite hilltop, and the lanes still wind around the rock the way they did then. Cedar Knolls, Sagamore Park and Armour Villa carry the same inheritance: Tudor, Norman and stucco houses on steep small lots, with old stone retaining walls doing quiet structural work on almost every one of them.
Working here means respecting that fabric. Beds and screening are designed to the scale of the lot, new stone is matched to what the house already has, and the crew stages around narrow streets where a full-size truck does not fit. Small properties, kept to a high standard, week after week.
Retaining walls that hold the hill
Most of the village is built on grade, so the retaining wall is the most common piece of masonry in Bronxville and the one most often failing quietly. A bulge, a lean or a wet face on a wall that holds a lawn or a driveway is structural, not cosmetic.
We rebuild and repair those walls in stone matched to the original, on compacted bases with drainage behind the face so water stops pushing the wall out. The village reviews significant wall and grading work, and Lawrence Park has its own design review on top, so the approvals are planned before the digging.
The Bronx River and where the water goes
The Bronx River runs the western edge of the village, and Bronxville's flood history is not a secret: the parkway closes in serious storms, and the blocks near the river have been underwater more than once in living memory. On the hill, the problem inverts, with runoff moving fast down slopes and old walls toward whoever is below.
We cannot move the river, but we can change what your property does with water. Grading and downspout extensions come first, then surface paths, then French drains and dry wells where pipe is genuinely required, with the discharge decided before anyone starts digging.
Co-op and building grounds near the station
A large share of Bronxville living is in the handsome co-op and apartment buildings around the village center and the Metro-North station. Their entries, lawns and foundation plantings are the building's face, and boards need them to read as maintained every week of the year, not just after a spring cleanup.
That is our commercial and HOA grounds work: a written seasonal scope, the same crew on the same schedule, and snow handled by the people who already know the property.
Every job here starts the same way: a twenty-minute walkthrough and a written price.
What affects the price in Bronxville
Scope, access on the hillside lanes and any village review set the number.
Common factors:

- Stone matched to century-old masonry
- Village and Lawrence Park review where the job needs it
- Staging and access on narrow winding streets
- Drainage scope on lots near the river or below a slope
- Seasonal contract versus one-time work

Common questions
If yours is not here, call (914) 486-3682. Someone answers seven days a week.
Often, yes. The village reviews retaining walls, significant grading and tree removal, and Lawrence Park adds its own design review on top. Nelson checks what your specific job triggers with the village Building Department before the crew is scheduled, so nothing stops halfway through.
Yes. The hilltop lanes were laid out in the 1890s around granite outcrops, so the properties come with real slopes, rock and old stone retaining walls. We repair and rebuild that masonry in matching stone, and stage the work around narrow winding streets where a big truck simply does not fit.
The river itself is beyond any landscaper, but what your property does with water is not. The blocks near the river and the parkway have a long flood history, and we reduce the damage with grading, downspout extensions, surface paths, and French drains or dry wells where pipe is genuinely needed.
Yes. A large share of Bronxville living is in the co-op and apartment buildings around the Metro-North station, and boards need entries, lawns and beds that read as maintained every week of the year. One crew, one contact, and a written scope the board can actually read.
The whole village, one square mile of it: Lawrence Park, Cedar Knolls, Sagamore Park, Armour Villa and the streets around the school and the village center. We also work the surrounding Eastchester neighborhoods that share the zip code.
It depends on scope, access on the narrow hillside lanes, and any village review the job needs. There is no flat rate without seeing it. Nelson walks the property and leaves a written scope and price. The visit is free. Call (914) 486-3682.
