North Shore · Essex County, Massachusetts
Stone patios, walls & walkways in Manchester-by-the-Sea, MA.
One of the North Shore’s most established coastal addresses. From our base in Marlborough, Cleiton Landscape & Masonry hand-builds patios, walls, and walkways across Manchester-by-the-Sea’s wooded ledge dropping to a working harbor and Singing Beach — set on granite ledge under thin soil, matched to its shingle-style estates and refined coastal cottages, and built in ongoing collaboration with Jonathan Keep Landscape Design.
What We Build in Manchester-by-the-Sea
Seven disciplines, one standard of craft.
We serve all of Manchester-by-the-Sea — from Smith’s Point, Singing Beach, and Manchester Center — 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.
It depends on the season and the size of the scope. Manchester-by-the-Sea sits in Essex County, Massachusetts, and we schedule by region so travel and material delivery stay efficient — we will give you a real date rather than an optimistic one.
A natural-stone patio typically runs $30–$60+ per square foot installed. In Manchester-by-the-Sea the swing usually comes from access and from how deep we have to excavate over granite ledge under thin soil — you get an itemized scope after we walk the property.
Yes. Ledge and salt define how stone is founded here — we anchor to rock and detail for spray, so the work still reads plumb and clean decades on. And because the land here is granite ledge under thin soil, with salt exposure on the seaward lots, we plan the base and drainage for those conditions from the first day on site.
