Landscape & Hardscape in Kennebunkport, Maine.
Cape Arundel, Ocean Avenue, and the classic Maine summer colony. Cleiton Landscape & Masonry hand-builds landscape & hardscape across Kennebunkport and Southern Maine — set on granite ledge under thin soil, matched to its shingle-style summer cottages and sea captains’ houses, and built to outlast the New England freeze-thaw.
The honest numbers for Kennebunkport
Price in Kennebunkport is driven less by the stone than by what is under it. Access, how far material has to be carried, the depth of base granite ledge under thin soil demands, and the amount of drainage a site needs move a number far more than the choice between one bluestone and another.
You get an itemized scope after we walk the property — what is included, what is not, and where the money actually goes. No allowances that quietly become change orders halfway through.
The whole Kennebunkport property, built as one
Sometimes the project is not a wall or a patio — it is the whole site. On rocky open coast and tidal river frontage along Ocean Avenue, we take a property from rough grade to finished landscape: drainage and earthwork first, because a landscape that fights water never looks settled, then stonework, plantings, and the details that make a yard feel resolved.
Working over granite ledge under thin soil, exposed to full North Atlantic weather, we start under the surface so the finished Kennebunkport property sheds water, stays dry where it should, and never undermines the stonework above it.
The crew Kennebunkport designers trust
Kennebunkport’s Cape Arundel colony is built straight onto granite ledge above the surf — anchoring to rock and detailing for salt is the whole discipline here.
On full-site projects we are frequently the execution crew for landscape architects and designers — much of our Southern Maine work in ongoing collaboration with Jonathan Keep Landscape Design. We read plans fluently, flag conflicts before they become change orders, and build exactly what was drawn.
Sourcing stone for Kennebunkport
Stone varies wildly pallet to pallet, so we select it ourselves. In Kennebunkport, where the local character runs to shingle-style summer cottages and sea captains’ houses, getting the color and cleft right matters more than the grade printed on the invoice.
Working from a plan in Kennebunkport
If you are coming to us with a plan already drawn, we build it as drawn. We read grading and layout sheets fluently, hold the detail, and keep the designer informed at each milestone — the way we work with Jonathan Keep Landscape Design across Maine.

Questions
Landscape & Hardscape in Kennebunkport, answered.
Constantly. A large share of our work is executing plans for landscape architects and designers. We build precisely to the drawing and keep the designer informed at every milestone.
Both. We can take a property from grading through final planting, or come in for the masonry scope alongside other trades. We will scope it whichever way serves the project.
Usually, yes. We hand-select from regional yards to match color, cleft, and scale against what is already on the property — which matters in Kennebunkport, where the shingle-style summer cottages and sea captains’ houses tend to be added to over time rather than replaced.
Kennebunkport’s Cape Arundel colony is built straight onto granite ledge above the surf — anchoring to rock and detailing for salt is the whole discipline here. We handle the local checks that go with that as part of the project rather than leaving them to you.
