Landscaping and masonry in Somers, NY
Somers runs from Heritage Hills to the lake hamlets to open ground near the reservoirs, and almost all of it drains into the Croton system. We work it weekly out of Mount Kisco, twenty minutes south.

From lake lots to open acreage
Somers is really several places: the lake communities around Shenorock, Lincolndale and Lake Purdy with their compact yards, the newer subdivisions off the routes, and larger open parcels toward Amawalk and the farms. Each needs different equipment and a different plan.
Small-lot work is about access, tidiness and drainage between close neighbors. Acreage is about zones: lawn, field, edge and drive, each priced and maintained on its own cycle.
Heritage Hills and community properties
Heritage Hills is its own world: thousands of condo homes on managed hillside, with association standards and access rules that a crew either respects or does not get invited back to.
We keep community work scheduled, quiet and clean, and we size the crew to the job. Patio, bed and drainage improvements inside association guidelines are a regular part of our Somers calendar.
Walls and grading under watershed rules
Somers regulates ground disturbance more tightly than most towns. Steep-slope work is regulated at a small threshold, wetlands and watercourses need permits, and the NYC watershed rules add their own limits near the reservoirs.
That is the ground we build walls and patios on. Footings below frost, drainage behind every wall, and discharge planned so the project does not pick a fight with the town or the DEP. Nelson flags anything that needs review at the walkthrough.
Drainage near lakes and reservoirs
What leaves a Somers yard ends up in a lake or a reservoir, which is why the rules exist and why we plan drainage on the surface first. Swales, regrading and downspout extensions move water without triggering reviews that piped discharge changes can.
Where pipe is the answer, we place it deliberately and keep it clear of buffers. Wet corners near the lakes usually trace back to grade, and grade can be fixed.
Every job here starts the same way: a twenty-minute walkthrough and a written price.
Fall cleanup under hardwoods
Somers is oak and maple country, and fall is a campaign, not a weekend. Leaves off the lawn and beds, gutters cleared, and everything cut back before the first hard freeze.
Book cleanup by early October and snow by November. Both fill up, and the same crew that cut the lawn all summer handles both.
What affects the price in Somers

Common questions
If yours is not here, call (914) 486-3682. Someone answers seven days a week.
Often, yes. Somers regulates steep-slope disturbance at a small threshold, and wetlands and watercourses have their own permits, with NYC watershed rules layered near the reservoirs. Nelson flags what applies during the walkthrough.
Yes. We keep the work inside association standards, on schedule and clean, and we are used to the access rules that come with condo community jobs.
Usually, and often without touching the buffer. Surface fixes uphill of the problem solve most yards. Where pipe is needed, we route and discharge it to stay inside the rules.
All of them: Heritage Hills, Shenorock, Lincolndale, Lake Purdy, Amawalk, Granite Springs and Baldwin Place. We are twenty minutes away in Mount Kisco and in Somers weekly.
A short, proven list. We plant what holds up to northern Westchester browsing and tell you at the estimate what will need protection.
It depends on scope, slope, water and any community or town review the project needs. There is no flat rate without seeing the site. Nelson walks the property and leaves a written price. The visit is free. Call (914) 486-3682.
