Transform Your Property with Professional Hardscaping
Hardscaping refers to the installation of permanent, non-plant elements that bring structure and definition to your outdoor environment. Unlike softscaping, which involves flowers, grass, and other vegetation, hardscaping incorporates materials like stone, brick, and concrete to create usable, low-maintenance features. At Hilltop Masonry and Landscaping, our services cover a wide array of installations—from elegant patios and welcoming walkways to sturdy retaining walls, statement fire pits, and sophisticated outdoor living areas.
We believe in a client-focused process where homeowners are informed and involved from the very beginning. Our professionals guide you through material selection, design options, and construction timelines, ensuring clarity and confidence at every step. The result? Outdoor transformations that are both functional and visually stunning.
Benefits of Our Hardscaping Services

- Enhanced Aesthetics: Thoughtfully designed patios, garden walls, and other features can dramatically improve your home’s curb appeal and outdoor ambiance.
- Improved Functionality: Hardscapes allow you to make the most of your property by creating designated spaces for entertaining, dining, and relaxing—no matter the season.
- Increased Property Value: A well-constructed hardscape adds considerable resale value by enhancing your home’s overall appeal and utility.
- Reduced Maintenance: Unlike traditional landscaping, which requires seasonal upkeep, hardscapes are built for durability and demand minimal attention once installed.
- Durability and Longevity: Our team uses only premium-grade materials that are weather-resistant and long-lasting, ensuring that your investment continues to perform for decades.
- Practical Problem-Solving: Beyond beauty, our designs address real concerns like soil erosion, water pooling, and uneven terrain—transforming previously unusable areas into functional spaces.

Client's Reviews
George Riggs2025-02-08Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Glenn just finished a small project that involved clearing out several trees, regrading a driveway, and building a small retaining wall. Before starting, Glenn spent a lot of time with me going over various approaches and outcomes for this project. The end result has worked out great. In spite of weather challenges, he was able to kept the project moving. He was always available for questions. The friendly workers always cleaned up the site after each day. I couldn’t be any happier with the process and end result. Raymond Sturz2024-12-30Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I found this company by accident as they were doing work at my neighbor's house. They seemed to be doing a fine job so I asked for a quote to do tree work on my property. I couldn't be happier with the work they performed. The workers spent the day climbing trees and cutting off branches. They cleaned up so well that if you didn't see where the branches were cut, you'd never know that they were there. After they finished, they asked me to walk around with them to be sure that I was satisfied. I dealt with Bruce and Anthony. They have a business model that harkens back to the days when you could do work on a handshake and know you could trust them to do the work well. I will use them again and highly recommend them. Laura Lynch2024-12-19Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I had several trees cut down with Hilltop and I am very, very satisfied with the work and the process! Hilltop Masonry & Landscaping was recommended to me. We had a number of trees to cut down, in fact I initially thought we would get a few more trees, but Glenn clearly has expertise in this and was honest in his recommendations. He suggested holding off on one big tree for another time and instead of cutting down some small trees, to rather just do pruning. His suggestions and honesty helped me understand the structure/roots of trees on my property more, but it also showed me he was not trying to just get a big job (big price). Glenn was fair with price and was efficient in getting the work done. Workers were very kind, too. It definitely makes me want to work with the company in the future. Cathy Burress2024-11-13Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. We had Hilltop come to plant mums and clean up yard and leaves. They did a really good job.

Bobby Budhu2024-11-05Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Hilltop is friendly, professional and easy to work with. We find them to be very honest, reliable and reasonable in terms of prices on various projects such as, building wall, preparing backyard, blacktop and removal of debris, etc compared to many other similar contractors who have very much deceived us in so many ways. We recommend them highly! Stephen Damin2024-11-02Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. This was our first landscape project with Hilltop and they exceeded our expectations. Glenn was very knowledgeable and helped make our vision a reality. We loved how it came out and are already looking forward to the next project. Highly recommend Hilltop! Jacques DiCroce2024-10-30Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I contacted Hilltop Masonry & Landscaping to inquire about replacing a decaying retaining wall on my property. I received a call back from Glenn within 5 minutes and 30 minutes later he came to look at the condition of the wall and discuss hardscape options. After consultation, I decided to replace the existing wall with a new railroad tie wall. He gave me a ball park estimate on the spot and followed up with a formal estimate within a few days. The estimate was very competitive and after confirming a few details, I accepted the proposal. A week later, a crew was onsite to start the demolition of the old wall. The crew was very professional, respectful of the property, used high quality materials, cleaned up after each workday, and minimized any inconvenience during the construction of the new wall. They made suggestions during the course of the construction that we hadn’t considered to enhance the outcome. The project was completed in 4 days, the work and attention to detail was exceptional and we couldn’t be happier with the end result. I highly recommend working with Glenn and his team. huguette Antoine2024-10-29Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google.
