Stone patios, walls & walkways in Watertown, MA.

The Victorians here set the direction, and gently rising ground above the Charles River, from riverfront flats up to the wooded slopes around Oakley Country Club sets the scale. That usually means hand-set fieldstone and bluestone detailed to look original to the house rather than applied to it.

It depends on the season and the size of the scope. Watertown sits in Middlesex 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.

Yes. Mount Auburn Cemetery, the nation's first garden cemetery, sits on the Watertown line, and the town's Charles River frontage and active conservation commission mean riverbank and drainage work is closely reviewed. And because the land here is glacial till with river alluvium and clay pockets near the Charles, ground that holds water and rewards a drained, engineered base, we plan the base and drainage for those conditions from the first day on site.

We serve all of Watertown — from Oakley, Bemis, and Coolidge Square — and the surrounding Greater Boston towns, working from our base in Marlborough, MA. Cleiton Landscape & Masonry has hand-built stone patios, walls, and walkways across the region since 2008.
