Landscaping and masonry in Greenwich, CT
Greenwich runs from four-acre backcountry wooded lots to salt-sprayed streets in Old Greenwich, and the old fieldstone walls thread through all of it. We cross down from Mount Kisco, about twenty-five minutes out.

Recent work
Fieldstone walls, built and restored
Native fieldstone walls are the signature of backcountry and mid-country Greenwich, and many runs are centuries old. When a section slumps, the right repair is a dry reset with the stone already on site, cleared of brush, rebuilt on a base that handles frost, and finished so the fixed stretch disappears into the run.
New walls, piers and entrances get built in stone chosen to match the vernacular rather than the catalog. On properties this visible, that difference is the whole job.
Retaining walls on ledgy ground
North of the Merritt the lots are wooded, rolling and frequently sitting on rock. Retaining walls here earn their keep: fieldstone, granite or engineered block depending on height and load, always with drainage behind the face and footings placed for what the ground actually is.
We probe for ledge at the walkthrough so the written price already knows what is under the topsoil.
Wetlands and the 100-foot review area
Greenwich reviews land work seriously. Digging, clearing or altering ground near a wetland or watercourse can fall under the town's wetlands agency, whose review area extends a hundred feet out, more in the drinking-water watershed. Drainage projects feel this first.
We design site work to stay clear of regulated ground where the property allows, and we tell you at the walkthrough when a project is the kind that needs review before it starts.
Coastal Greenwich is a different climate
Old Greenwich, Riverside and Cos Cob garden in salt air on sandier ground, with flood maps that matter. The plant list that thrives in backcountry browns out near the Point.
We plant by exposure, grade shoreline-side yards to shed storms deliberately, and detail hardscape for salt as well as frost.
Every job here starts the same way: a twenty-minute walkthrough and a written price.
Planting where the deer are official
Greenwich's own government calls its deer population unsustainably high, which any backcountry gardener could have confirmed for free. Unprotected beds feed the herd.
We plant what holds up, structure beds defensively, and say plainly at the estimate which wish-list plants will not survive the browsing.
What affects the price in Greenwich
Stone, water and exposure set the number from backcountry to the shore.
Common factors:
- Wall work measured by the running foot
- Ledge found at probing
- Wetland review before ground opens
- Salt-tolerant planting near the Sound
- Acreage zones priced separately
- Seasonal contract versus one-time work

Common questions
If yours is not here, call (914) 486-3682. Someone answers seven days a week.
Possibly. The town's wetlands agency reviews work near wetlands and watercourses, with a review area reaching a hundred feet out and further in the watershed. Nelson flags what applies at the walkthrough so review happens before scheduling.
Yes, and restoration is usually the right call. Sections reset dry with the original stone on a rebuilt base. Replacement stone, when needed, gets chosen to vanish into the run.
Yes. We are based in Mount Kisco, about twenty-five minutes from central Greenwich, and lower Fairfield has been part of our service area for years. Cross-border work is routine on this stretch of the state line.
It depends on height and what the ground gives us: dry fieldstone for character walls, granite or engineered block where loads demand it, and always drainage behind the face. Probing at the walkthrough decides the method before the price is written.
A short and honest list. The town itself acknowledges the deer problem, and we plant accordingly, telling you at the estimate what will need protection to survive.
It depends on stone, water, exposure and acreage. A backcountry wall run and a Riverside garden are different jobs. Nelson walks the property and leaves a written scope and price. The visit is free. Call (914) 486-3682.
