NORTH RIDGE IN MENDOTA HEIGHTS
A local crew, 10 min away
Mendota Heights homes tend to be bigger and older than what we see in the newer south-metro suburbs, so the work has to match — natural stone instead of basic pavers, mature plant material instead of starter shrubs, and lighting designed around trees and architecture that are already established. Many lots here also have bluff edges or steep transitions, so any wall over 4 ft gets engineered drawings, geogrid reinforcement, and drainage tile before we start. Around Somerset and the Dodd Road corridor, estate-scale projects like this typically book 6+ months out.

FROM OUR SHOP TO MENDOTA HEIGHTS
We know what Mendota Heights ground does in a Minnesota winter.
Mendota Heights homes tend to be bigger and older than what we see in the newer south-metro suburbs, so the work has to match — natural stone instead of basic pavers, mature plant material instead of starter shrubs, and lighting designed around trees and architecture that are already established. Many lots here also have bluff edges or steep transitions, so any wall over 4 ft gets engineered drawings, geogrid reinforcement, and drainage tile before we start. Around Somerset and the Dodd Road corridor, estate-scale projects like this typically book 6+ months out. That is not something you learn from a spec sheet — it comes from building here, season after season, and going back to the same properties year after year.

Nick and Brandon are on the properties they sell. You are talking to the people who will actually be doing the work.

MENDOTA HEIGHTS QUESTIONS
Questions from Mendota Heights homeowners
Yes — it’s most of what we build here. Natural stone instead of basic pavers, mature plant material instead of starter shrubs, and lighting designed around existing architecture and trees.
Estate-scale work here typically books 6+ months in advance, so start the conversation well before Memorial Day for a 2026 install.
Many do. Walls over 4 ft on bluff edges or steep transitions need engineered drawings, geogrid, and drainage tile — we handle all three in-house along with the permit.
We’re 10 minutes from our Inver Grove Heights shop and offer same-day site visits when possible, with a written proposal within 5 business days.
Our Somerset project — a 1,400 sq ft retaining wall and planting install — was a 6-week build. Estate-scale stone and engineering cost more than a standard hardscape — we’ll give you a real number after seeing the site rather than a generic range that won’t fit your lot.

LANDSCAPE + WARRANTY
“They helped in the design and installation of retaining walls, a beautiful fire pit and gardens, drainage systems, patios, and they planned and planted hundreds of plants and trees. They completed every project on time and on budget, and they honored their warranty without question when we needed to repair a minor issue after the winter months.”
