We're motivated by making homes more inviting and comfortable. After 24 years of crafting beautiful stonework, we love helping families create spaces where they actually want to spend time together.
If you've got a sloped yard that's more trouble than it's worth, we can help turn that challenge into your favorite outdoor space. Our retaining walls don't just hold back dirt—they create the level ground you need for gardens, patios, or just a place where the kids can actually play without rolling downhill.
We use beautiful natural stone and time-tested building methods that'll outlast all of us. Whether you're dealing with erosion that's driving you crazy, need more usable space around your home, or want to add some serious curb appeal, we build walls that solve the problem and look great doing it.
Over 24 years, we've tackled everything from small garden terraces to major slope stabilization projects across Rapid City and the Black Hills. Every wall we build includes proper drainage (because nobody wants their investment washing away) and foundations that laugh at our South Dakota freeze-thaw cycles.
Perfect for: Turning slopes into usable space, stopping erosion, creating garden levels, supporting driveways.
There's something magical about a real stone fireplace that brings families together. We've built dozens of them over the years, and we still get excited seeing families gather around the fires we helped create. Whether you want a cozy indoor fireplace for winter evenings or an outdoor fireplace to extend your patio season, we craft each one to fit your home and your life.
We work with gorgeous natural stone from right here in the Black Hills region and surrounding areas, creating everything from rustic fieldstone mantels that feel like they've always been part of your home to clean, contemporary designs that make your neighbors jealous. Our outdoor fireplaces are especially popular—they turn your backyard into the place everyone wants to be, even when the weather gets chilly.
From design to the final spark screen, we handle every detail. Safety is huge for us (nobody wants a beautiful fireplace that's a fire hazard), and we make sure everything meets code while looking absolutely stunning.
What we love building: Indoor or outdoor fireplaces with custom mantels, outdoor fire features, stone surrounds.
Your backyard should be as comfortable and inviting as your living room—just with better views and fresh air. That's where hardscaping comes in. We design and build patios, walkways, outdoor kitchens, and stone steps that turn ordinary yards into spaces where your family actually wants to hang out.
We use beautiful materials like natural flagstone, limestone, and granite that we source locally when possible. Every project starts with us really looking at your space, figuring out drainage (because pooling water is nobody's friend), and planning for our famous South Dakota winters. We want what we build to look great and work perfectly for decades.
Whether you're dreaming of an intimate courtyard for morning coffee or a grand entertainment area for hosting the whole extended family, we create outdoor spaces that feel like natural extensions of your home. We love integrating lighting and plantings to make everything flow together beautifully.
Services we provide: Patios that invite you to stay outside, walkways that welcome people home, outdoor kitchens for serious entertaining, stone steps that look and feel solid
Here's what we've learned in 24 years: a fire pit will absolutely grease the skids if you want your teenagers to hang around home more, or if you're hoping the grandkids will visit more often. There's something about a crackling fire that makes everyone want to pull up a chair and stay awhile.
We build fire pits that become the heart of your outdoor space, using beautiful Black Hills stone that looks like it belongs in your landscape. Whether you want something simple and cozy for intimate family evenings or a show-stopping centerpiece for entertaining, we design each fire pit to fit your space and your style perfectly.
Safety is crucial—we make sure every fire pit is properly ventilated and built with materials that can handle the heat. We can do traditional wood-burning pits or set you up with gas conversion for convenience. Our fire pits can include built-in seating areas or connect beautifully with existing patios and hardscaping.
Options we offer: Classic wood-burning pits, convenient gas conversions, integrated stone seating, cooking surfaces for s'mores and more, custom spark screens for safety.
The Black Hills region has some gorgeous historical buildings, and we feel honored when we get to help preserve them. There's something special about working on stone and masonry that craftsmen built 100+ years ago—you can feel the pride they took in their work, and we want to honor that legacy.
We specialize in matching original materials and techniques so that our restoration work blends seamlessly with the existing structure. Whether it's a century-old stone wall in Deadwood or a brick facade in Belle Fourche, we take the time to understand how the original builders worked and what materials they used.
We've worked with homeowners, historical societies, and businesses throughout the Black Hills area. Every project involves careful consideration; finding the right stone matches, and using period-appropriate methods that meet modern preservation standards while maintaining the building's authentic character.
What we restore: Historic stone walls, building facades that tell stories, historic chimneys that have weathered decades of South Dakota seasons.
