Premier Landscaper & Hardscaper in Yorktown, NY
When you need a hand with masonry, stone work, or regular lawn care, Hilltop Masonry & Landscaping brings over 40 years of local experience straight to your home or business. We build outdoor spaces that handle wet springs, hot summers, and freezing winter ground without shifting, washing away, or falling apart.
Real Stone, Smart Drainage, and Yards Built for Westchester Weather
Getting a property to look good while managing heavy slopes and rainwater runoff takes a practical touch. Between heavy clay soil and elevation swings across Yorktown, NY and Northern Westchester, off-the-shelf landscape design & installation plans usually fail after a couple of harsh seasons. We look closely at how water moves across your yard before laying a single stone or planting a tree.
Whether you need a dry-stacked retaining wall to hold back a shifting hill or a paver patio for weekend cookouts, our hardscape design & installation focus stays on solid prep work and heavy base materials that last.
From custom stone masonry to complete site development and driveway installation, our experienced team provides personalized service from start to finish.
Everything We Do for Your Lawn and Hardscape in Yorktown
Every property has different needs. That's why we offer a complete range of landscaping and hardscaping services designed to help homeowners and businesses maximize their outdoor investment.
Seasonal Maintenance & Yard Care
Keeping a lawn clean takes consistent effort as seasons change. Spring cleanup clears off winter storm branches, summer heat calls for turf care, and fall leaf drops quickly smother grass if left sitting. We handle the heavy chores on a steady schedule so your outdoor space stays tidy year-round.
Design and Planting That Actually Thrives
Planting a lawn or garden around here means choosing species that can survive cold winters and hungry local deer. We help you pick native shrubs, trees, and perennials suited to your property's specific shade and soil conditions.

Complete Yard Overhauls
If your back yard is mostly rock ledges, muddy slope, or overgrown brush, a full renovation resets the whole property. We tackle initial land clearing, grading, stone work, and planting in one coordinated effort.

Mowing, Aeration, and Turf Care
Westchester's dense soil compacts over time, choking off oxygen and water from root systems. Our lawn maintenance plans include core aeration, dethatching, seasonal fertilizer, and targeted seeding.

Garden Beds & Shade-Tolerant Planting

40 Years Working Northern Westchester Soil
Hilltop Masonry & Landscaping started four decades ago. Over that time, we have handled almost every soil issue, ledge outcrop, and drainage challenge local properties can throw at a contractor.
Deep Local Knowledge
We know local municipal codes, soil profiles, and which plant varieties deer leave alone in our neighborhood.
Four Decades on the Job
41 years in business means we know how materials age over decades, not just how they look on installation day.
Tailored Property Layouts
No two lots share the same grade or sun exposure. We design around your site's physical reality rather than using template designs.
Built for Tough Winters
From wall bases to paver sand, we use heavy stone, natural blue stone, and crushed aggregate bases that resist freeze-thaw shifting.
How a Typical Project Runs in Yorktown, NY
Clear communication keeps jobs running on time without unwanted surprises. Here is how we handle work from start to finish:
On-Site Consultation
We meet at your property to inspect site slopes, measure the footprint, assess drainage, and talk through what you want to accomplish.
Layout and Material Choices
Next, we sketch out a functional design and pick stone styles, paver patterns, or plant choices suited to your home.
Excavation and Build
Our crew handles base digging, compaction, stone setting, and planting according to strict engineering and trade standards.
Final Walkthrough
We review the completed build together to ensure every stone is tight, water flows correctly, and the workspace is swept clean.

"What a pleasure to work with Glenn Griffen and his son Glenn Jr. and their team! They have been in the business for a long time and are still so excited to execute beautiful landscaping that matches the costumers vision! Their guidance and suggestions are what I needed. They removed overgrown landscaping and replanted the front of my house. I love the results. We also removed dead trees, did repair masonry work, and added to our sprinkler system. They can do it all! One stop shopping and a real pleasure to work with. I am one very happy costumer!🌺🌹🌻🦚🌳🌼"
