North Shore · Essex County, Massachusetts
Stone patios, walls & walkways in Essex, MA.
Tidal marsh, a shipbuilding past, and Conomo Point. From our base in Marlborough, Cleiton Landscape & Masonry hand-builds patios, walls, and walkways across Essex’s tidal marsh and river frontage backed by wooded upland — set on marsh edge and sandy till, matched to its antique capes and colonials plus riverfront summer houses, and built in ongoing collaboration with Jonathan Keep Landscape Design.
What We Build in Essex
Seven disciplines, one standard of craft.
Yes. Essex’s great salt marsh is protected state and federal ground — anything built near it is designed around the buffer, and we scope that before drawing a line. And because the land here is marsh edge and sandy till, with ledge on the higher ground, we plan the base and drainage for those conditions from the first day on site.
A natural-stone patio typically runs $30–$60+ per square foot installed. In Essex the swing usually comes from access and from how deep we have to excavate over marsh edge and sandy till — you get an itemized scope after we walk the property.
We serve all of Essex — from Essex Village, Conomo Point, and Southern Avenue — and the surrounding North Shore towns, working from our base in Marlborough, MA. Cleiton Landscape & Masonry has hand-built stone patios, walls, and walkways across the region since 2008.
Constantly. We routinely execute plans for landscape architects and designers, building to spec with millimeter precision — much of our work in ongoing collaboration with Jonathan Keep Landscape Design.
