Hardscaping Questions
A professionally installed paver patio in the Hudson Valley typically costs between $25 and $55 per square foot, with most homeowners spending $4,000 to $12,000 for a standard 200 to 400 square foot patio. The final price depends on materials, design complexity, site preparation, and any add-ons like fire pits or sitting walls. We provide detailed estimates so there are no surprises. Learn more in our patio cost guide.
Most residential hardscaping projects take 3 to 10 days depending on size and complexity. A standard patio typically takes 3 to 5 days. Larger projects that include retaining walls, walkways, and outdoor living features may take 1 to 2 weeks. We provide a timeline estimate before starting any project so you know what to expect.
As a Unilock Authorized Contractor, we primarily use Unilock pavers and retaining wall systems, which are backed by a lifetime warranty. We also work with natural stone, bluestone, and other premium materials depending on the project design and your preferences. Every material we use is selected for durability in Hudson Valley weather conditions. Visit our hardscaping page for more details.
Lawn Care Questions
During the growing season in the Hudson Valley (typically April through October), most lawns should be mowed weekly. During peak growth in late spring and early summer, some lawns benefit from mowing every 5 to 6 days. In late summer and fall, mowing frequency can decrease to every 10 to 14 days. Our lawn maintenance plans adjust frequency based on seasonal conditions.
Spring cleanup in the Hudson Valley typically starts in late March to mid-April, once the ground thaws and temperatures stay consistently above 40 degrees. We recommend scheduling your spring cleanup early, as this is our busiest season. Read our spring cleanup checklist for a complete guide to what is included.
Yes, we offer seasonal contracts for weekly mowing, spring and fall cleanups, and full-season maintenance packages. Seasonal contracts lock in your pricing and guarantee your spot on our schedule throughout the season. Contact us to discuss a plan that fits your property and budget.
Snow Removal Questions

For commercial properties with specific requirements, we can customize trigger depths based on your needs. Our snow removal services include plowing, shoveling walkways, and ice management with salt or sand application.
Yes, we offer seasonal contracts for snow removal that cover your property for the entire winter season. Seasonal contracts ensure priority service during storms and provide predictable monthly billing. We recommend signing up by early November to guarantee your spot. Contact us for pricing.
