North Shore · Essex County, Massachusetts
Stone patios, walls & walkways in Gloucester, MA.
Granite headlands and harbor slopes on Cape Ann on granite bedrock under thin coastal soil — the ledge is the foundation — that is the ground we build on in Gloucester. Cape Ann granite, harbor light, and exposed coastal ground. Patios, walls, walkways, and whole-property work, hand-set to suit the shingled coastal homes of Essex County.
What We Build in Gloucester
Seven disciplines, one standard of craft.
Yes. Gloucester sits on the same Cape Ann granite that built half of Boston — coastal stonework here has to take salt spray, wind, and freeze, and we build it to. And because the land here is granite bedrock under thin coastal soil — the ledge is the foundation, we plan the base and drainage for those conditions from the first day on site.
We serve all of Gloucester — from Eastern Point, Annisquam, and Magnolia — 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.
The shingled coastal homes here set the direction, and granite headlands and harbor slopes on Cape Ann sets the scale. That usually means hand-set fieldstone and bluestone detailed to look original to the house rather than applied to it.
A natural-stone patio typically runs $30–$60+ per square foot installed. In Gloucester the swing usually comes from access and from how deep we have to excavate over granite bedrock under thin coastal soil — the ledge is the foundation — you get an itemized scope after we walk the property.
