NEW ENGLAND STONEMASONRY

landscape design & construction

NES is a high-end stone landscape and design-build general contracting company. The owner, Robert Young, completed his degree in Mechanical Engineering at Cornell and enjoyed stonework as a hobby for many years before turning it into his profession in 1985 when the company was founded. Based in the West Boston suburbs, New England Stonemasonry is committed to upholding high standards of quality in design, construction, and restoration.

Hardscape

Many of our general contracting projects incorporate stonemasonry through bespoke combinations of landscape and hardscape design with driveways, patios, pillars, steps, walkways, and stone walls.

Water Features

NES stone landscape design seamlessly integrates natural water elements, such as fountains, ponds, waterfalls and streams.

Fire Pits + Outdoor Kitchens

NES stone landscape designs feature unique, tailored pieces both beautiful and functional; transforming exterior spaces into cozy, firelit social hubs perfect for discovering the joys of outdoor dining.

Corten Steel

NES landscape design often utilizes Corten steel, which develops an appealingly rusted appearance when exposed to the elements and eliminates the need for painting.

Restoration

Robert has over 30 years’ restoration experience in the historically rich Boston area, most notably the Old North Church of Paul Revere’s famous midnight ride. His continued work in this field with New England Stonemasonry elevates the meticulous process of reviving and preserving timeworn structures into an art form.

Carpentry

New England Stonemasonry’s custom design process creatively implements carpentry and woodwork with stonemasonry. Please note the project gallery is divided into two major categories: Landscape Components and General Contracting.
