For over 13 years, our team at Summit Scapes Construction has been proud to serve Manlius and the surrounding communities. We’re not like the other companies you’ve had to deal with in the past. We know this area; its people, its landscapes, and we deliver services that exceed your expectations.
At Summit Scapes Construction, we believe that a beautiful and functional landscape begins with a strong foundation. You can improve your outdoor space and make the best use of your property with hardscape and stonework projects in Manlius and the surrounding areas. Not only are they functional, but they are also attractive, complementing your property’s overall look.
Hardscaping refers to the structures that are integrated seamlessly into your landscape, giving refined shape to the softer elements like plants, flowers, and lawns. Hardscaping is more than just adding stone to your yard. It’s about crafting features that look great and function well. With our hardscape and stonework services, we help turn your ideas into a reality, improving the functionality of your space and creating a cohesive look that blends with your home and outdoor space.

If you love to host, you don’t have to limit yourself to the inside of your house. Your yard can be the perfect place to hold parties or small get-togethers. Patios are ideal areas for dining, relaxing, and entertaining. If your property has a garden, we can create a cohesive layout that allows guests to move from the patio through the garden and back around without creating blocks. If you already have other features like a fire pit or a pool, we can integrate them into the layout and make sure your yard flows smoothly together.

Having a well-designed outdoor space is not just about looks; it’s about making the space safe and accessible. When you add pathways and walkways to your property, you’re providing a stable, clear path to navigate through. By adding walkways, you minimize the risk of trips and falls and prevent damage to your landscaping.
Retaining walls
are another common safety feature that can double as a design element. If your Manlius property is on a slope, installing a retaining wall will help prevent erosion and keep your home and outdoor space safe from any sudden shifts or collapses.

At Summit, we don’t offer out-of-the-box services; we make sure that you’re getting a layout that fits your home. If you have a property with some previous work done on it and want to upgrade a small section, we can mimic the previous work done so the whole look is cohesive. If you want to rip out old stonework and do a complete overhaul of an area, we can do that too. And if you do have inspiration from a reel that you just can’t get out of your head, show it to us! We can use any inspiration that you have to create the look you want for your space.
We understand it’s easy to scroll through social media and feel inspired by all the outdoor DIY projects. A 60-second reel might make laying a patio or replacing your driveway with herringbone brick look like a weekend job for one person. But the truth is that hardscaping requires a lot of experience and precision. Not to mention all the materials you need for the project, the reality behind the reel is that DIY hardscaping can quickly become overwhelming, expensive, and even unsafe if done incorrectly.
When you invest in our professional hardscaping and stonework services for your Manlius property, you’re putting your trust in skilled professionals. Our team of contractors understands how to calculate drainage, slope, and soil conditions, and keep to New York State code. When we’re on the job, all you need to do is share with us the layout and functionality that you want for the space, and we’ll take it from here.

Hardscape project timelines can vary based on the scope of the project and the weather conditions, but here are some common timelines:
Simple projects, such as hardscaping under 100 sq ft or small step builds, typically take between 1 and 2 days to complete. More complex projects, such as large landing step builds, patios, or step builds with 4+ steps, can take up to 2 weeks to complete.
In most cases, yes, we can. We work with a variety of suppliers and natural materials, so they can typically match your existing stone or paver. If the exact product has been discontinued, we can make recommendations for options that will flow seamlessly into your current look.
Yes! Hardscaping is one of the most effective ways to add curb appeal to your property, like icing on a cake. It also adds usable square footage to your property. According to real estate experts, features like patios and outdoor kitchens can yield an ROI of 80% or more.
