What we build
Three trades. One crew.
Most outdoor projects around here need more than one of these. A patio needs a wall to hold the grade. A lake lot needs the shoreline fixed before the steps go in. We do all of it, so nothing falls between contractors.

Broom-finished pool decks pitched away from the pool wall, with coping, expansion joints, and paver soldier-course borders, timed with your pool builder.
-

Wood-plank, stone, and slate stamped patterns in colored concrete, sealed and honestly explained: it costs more than broom and needs resealing.

Poured stoops and steps on frost footings, paver steps, and boulder steps down to the lake, with risers that match and landings that drain.

Front walks, side-yard paths, and lake paths in pavers, flagstone, stepping stones, or concrete, built to the width and pitch that actually work.

Low-voltage path, step, and wall lights installed during a hardscape job, with the wire run under the pavers before they go down.
-
Backyard renovations
Grading, drainage, walls, a concrete or paver patio, steps, and a fire pit built in the right order by one crew instead of four contractors.

Outdoor living design
The planning step before the build: sightlines from the house, zones for cooking and sitting and fire, and materials chosen for Minnesota winters.

Landscaping
The finish work around the hardscape: planting beds, mulch, decorative rock, steel or paver edging, and seed or sod where we graded.

Fieldstone riprap and boulder walls that stop a lake bank from sliding into the water, built out of Cokato for lakes across Wright and Meeker County.
-

-
Drainage and erosion
Grading, drain tile, swales, and rock beds that get water away from the house and keep a sloped lot from washing, built for the clay till around Cokato.
