When Hardscaping Design Falls Flat, So Does Your Landscape

Without a clear plan, even quality materials can look out of place.

Patios that feel disconnected, walkways that lead nowhere, and retaining walls that stand out for the wrong reasons can take away from your home instead of adding to it.

We’ve seen it happen when layouts are rushed, materials are mismatched, or construction lacks experience. It is not just a missed opportunity. It is a visible reminder of what could have been done better.

At Hudson Landscapes, we approach hardscaping as an extension of your home. Whether you need a custom patio, a natural stone walkway, a properly engineered retaining wall, or a driveway that complements your architecture, each element is carefully considered and expertly built.

Our team includes ASLA-certified landscape architects, seasoned masons, and specialists who work together to ensure the structure, flow, and materials feel aligned with your property and your lifestyle.

We design and build with a long-term vision, creating spaces that age gracefully and hold their place over time.

What We Do

Local Hardscaping & Masonry Services

Patios & Walkways

Patios and walkways shape how you experience your outdoor space. They guide movement, create gathering areas, and influence how the landscape unfolds around you. We design and build surfaces that feel natural underfoot and are aligned with the architecture and layout of your home.

Using materials like bluestone, granite, brick, stone pavers, and porcelain tile, we help you select finishes and layouts that complement your home and the surrounding landscape.

From grading and drainage to installation, each step is executed with attention to detail and respect for the environment. Whether leading to a garden or anchoring an outdoor living space, each surface is built to feel complete.

Outdoor Kitchens

An outdoor kitchen should feel like a natural extension of your home, not an afterthought. We design and build fully integrated cooking spaces that support how you live and entertain outside, with layouts tailored to the rhythm of your gatherings.

From built-in grills and countertop space to sinks, refrigeration, and storage, each kitchen is customized to your needs and constructed with durable materials that hold up beautifully over time. Stonework, appliances, and finishes are all selected to complement the architecture and surrounding landscape.

Using materials like bluestone, granite, brick, and stone pavers, each path is carefully aligned with the architecture of the home and the natural lines of the land.

Retaining Walls

Retaining walls do more than reinforce your landscape. They create usable space, define edges, and give lasting structure to the land. On sloped or uneven properties, they can shape a patio, carve out a garden, or create a level lawn where none existed before.

We build walls with lasting strength and visual clarity, using materials like natural stone, masonry block, or boulders that work in harmony with the surrounding architecture and natural landscape. Every retaining wall serves a purpose, but is always built to feel like it has truly belonged from the start.

Driveways

A driveway is one of the first features guests see, but it’s often overlooked in the design process. We build driveways that are not only durable and properly engineered, but also cohesive with the architecture and layout of your property.

Whether constructed with natural stone, concrete pavers, asphalt with stone detailing, or another material suited to your home, every driveway is built to perform in all seasons and sit comfortably within the landscape. It should create a clear, welcoming approach that reflects the quality of everything beyond it.

Fire Features

Fire invites people to pause and gather. It brings warmth, light, and atmosphere to the landscape, turning open space into a destination. We build permanent fire features that work in conversation with the surrounding stonework and layout.

Designs range from classic fire pits and masonry fireplaces to modern flame channels and built-in seating walls. Each feature is built to match the scale, setting, and rhythm of the space so it feels connected to everything around it.

Water Features

Water brings contrast and calm to a landscape. It catches light, adds movement, and softens the edges of stone and structure. We design water features that feel rooted in their surroundings, using scale, material, and placement to create a quiet focal point within the space.

From a small fountain nestled into a garden to a larger waterfall integrated into the hardscape, each feature is carefully built to work with the architecture and the land. The presence is subtle, but the impact is lasting.

Testimonials

Hear From Your Westchester and Fairfield Neighbors

I have used Hudson Landscapes for over 25 years to take care of my property year round. With John Gualtiere’s expertise in engineering and landscape design I have had numerous sun or shade gardens planted, had a beautiful freestanding perfectly pitched patio built and had a long “fung shui” (at my request) retaining wall constructed.

Amy

John Gualteri and his team at Hudson Landscape Contractors and Tree Care Specialists have been the consummate professionals and have provided excellent service for the past 20 years. They have provided us with a full range of services from basic landscaping and design, to tree and lawn care services, to masonry, and building durable and beautifully designed stone walls and stairs. They’re the best of the best and I couldn’t recommend them more highly.

Alec Miller

We have worked with Hudson for more than 11 years. Over that time, John and his team have transformed our property, designing and incorporating both landscaping and hardscaping to help us make the most of our property. I could not be happier with the results, and neighbors often comment on how great our house looks…

What to Expect

Hardscaping Process

1

Start with a Conversation

We begin with a call to understand your goals, timeline, and the kind of space you want to create. Whether you are thinking about a new patio, wall, or full hardscape layout, this first conversation helps us prepare for a productive site visit.

2

On-Site Review and Proposal

We meet at your property to assess grade, drainage, and how the hardscape will interact with your overall landscape. Together, we explore materials and layout ideas before preparing a clear proposal with scope, cost, and next steps.

3

Construction and Completion

With the plan in place, our team begins work on site. Stone is set with consistency and alignment, transitions are resolved as we build, and the space takes shape with a clear relationship to the home and the land around it.
