Stone Walls · Westport, MA
Stone Walls in Westport, Massachusetts.
Coastal Westport estates — fieldstone walls, patios, and gardens against meadow and water. Cleiton Landscape & Masonry hand-builds stone walls across Westport and South Coast — set on sandy coastal loam over till, matched to its farmhouses, shingled coastal estates, and vineyard properties, and built to outlast the New England freeze-thaw.
See our Westport projectProblems We Solve
Common stone walls problems in Westport — solved.
A steep or eroding slope you can’t use.
An engineered retaining wall turns it into level, planted, usable ground that holds for generations.
An existing wall that’s bulging, leaning, or cracking.
That’s a drainage failure, not a stone one. We rebuild on a real footing with a weep system behind it so it never repeats.
You want privacy and a defined property line.
A hand-stacked fieldstone wall frames the land the way New England has for centuries — and looks original to it.

Building what was drawn
Designers keep sending us South Coast work for one reason: what gets built matches what was drawn. We hold the spec, raise conflicts early, and document as we go — including on the Jonathan Keep Landscape Design projects throughout this portfolio.
Fieldstone matched to Westport
Freestanding fieldstone is the older language of South Coast, and it is what makes new work read as though it belongs. We source local stone, sort it by hand on site, and dry-stack so each stone carries load to the ones below it — no mortar hiding a mistake. The result carries the settled, irregular character of the walls already standing around Westport Point, Central Village, and Horseneck.
Where the farmhouses, shingled coastal estates, and vineyard properties call for a cleaner line — a granite-capped seat wall, a mortared wall against a foundation — we build that too, matched to the house and the planting plan.
Building walls in Westport
Westport is stone-wall country — miles of old farm walls set the vocabulary, and our work extends that tradition against meadow, vineyard, and water.
Much of this work we build straight from a landscape architect’s drawing — batter, height, cap detail, and stone selection exactly as specified — in ongoing collaboration with Jonathan Keep Landscape Design. The Westport site is left clean at the end of every day.
Budgeting stone walls in Westport
We would rather explain the number than defend it. In Westport, the swing factors are access, excavation depth over sandy coastal loam over till, drainage, and protection of what is already growing on the property — the stone itself is rarely the deciding line.
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.
Schedule and site care in Westport
A job in Westport is a few weeks of trucks, machines, and people in your yard. We plan staging and protection before day one — drive plates, root-zone protection, a defined material area — and leave the site clean each evening rather than at the end.
Questions
Stone Walls in Westport, answered.
Most residential walls in MetroWest fall between $65 and $130 per square face foot, depending on stone type, height, drainage requirements, and access. Dry-stacked fieldstone and engineered retaining walls sit at the higher end. We give a clear, itemized scope after walking the site.
Yes. Cleiton Landscape & Masonry builds stone walls throughout Westport — from Westport Point, Central Village, and Horseneck — and across South Coast, and has since 2008. We’re licensed and insured, we work across Massachusetts, and we build from architectural plans with millimeter precision.
Usually, yes. We hand-select from regional yards to match color, cleft, and scale against what is already on the property — which matters in Westport, where the farmhouses tend to be added to over time rather than replaced.
Coastal farmland, salt meadow, and river frontage along the Westport rivers on sandy coastal loam over till, with the old farm walls as the local vernacular. That governs how we found and drain everything we build here — a proper base and drainage go in before a single stone is set, which is what keeps Westport stonework flat, plumb, and intact through freeze-thaw.
