Hear from Our Customers
Your West End property deserves more than basic landscaping. You need outdoor spaces that handle Providence County’s clay soils, seasonal water challenges, and freeze-thaw cycles without falling apart in two years.
That’s where our masonry background makes the difference. We understand how materials actually perform in New England weather because we’ve been working with stone, brick, and concrete for years.
You get patios that don’t crack, walkways that don’t shift, and retaining walls that actually retain. More importantly, you get outdoor living spaces that increase your property value while giving you somewhere beautiful to spend time.
Above and Beyond Chimney brings something different to West End hardscaping: actual masonry experience. We’re not just another landscaping company trying to figure out stonework.
We’ve been working with materials in Norfolk and Plymouth counties for years. We know how coastal moisture affects different stones, what happens during freeze-thaw cycles, and which construction methods actually last in New England.
West End’s urban environment presents unique challenges – limited space, drainage issues from clay soils, and the need for designs that complement historic architecture. We handle these challenges because we understand both the materials and the local conditions.
We start with a thorough consultation and property assessment. This isn’t a quick walk-around – we’re looking at drainage patterns, soil conditions, existing structures, and how water moves across your property during different seasons.
Next comes design and material selection. We explain the pros and cons of different options so you can make informed decisions. Everything we recommend is chosen specifically for West End’s conditions and your property’s needs.
During installation, we handle the technical details that matter: proper base preparation, drainage solutions, and construction techniques that prevent settling and shifting. We protect your existing landscape, clean up daily, and keep you informed throughout the project.
The final step is a complete walkthrough where we explain how to maintain your new hardscaping and answer any questions about long-term care.
