Stonework: Making a Statement
Stonework as a landscaping focal point can help your garden grow; make waves around your swimming pool; and transform a walkway into a way of life. From landscaping stone walls to ornate pillars, stone is a durable, adaptable, and visually appealing medium that will make visitors stop and study your design work, and will serve as a constant reminder of why you fell in love with your home and garden in the first place.
Timeless Craftsmanship for Exceptional Outdoor Spaces
Stonework adds weight, texture, and timeless character to a residential landscape. At McHale Landscape Design, we specialize in custom stone features that define and elevate outdoor spaces. From dry-stacked garden walls to hand-cut patios, our stonework is built to last and designed to fit seamlessly into the landscape.
We serve clients in Annapolis, Easton, Clarksburg, McLean, and surrounding areas. Each stone project reflects the property’s architecture, terrain, and overall design goals. Whether you’re looking for a new seating wall or a full outdoor living space, we bring decades of expertise to every project.
Custom Stonework, Built by Experts
We offer a wide range of stone applications tailored to your needs:
- Garden and retaining walls
- Patios and terraces
- Walkways and steps
- Outdoor fireplaces and fire pits
- Stone edging and accents
- Pillars, columns, and gateways
Our landscape architects and masons work together from concept to completion. Every stone is chosen, shaped, and placed with care. The result is a feature that blends structure with beauty.
In Easton and Annapolis, we often use regional stone to complement the natural setting. In McLean and Clarksburg, we create more formal layouts that reflect classic architectural styles. Whether it’s rough-cut fieldstone or sleek cut bluestone, we select hardscape materials that support your overall vision.
Where Stonework Meets Landscape Architecture
Stonework is never just decorative. It provides structure, solves elevation challenges, and defines outdoor spaces. When integrated into patios, walkways, or garden design features, stonework enhances both form and function.
Our design-build approach ensures every hardscaping detail supports the bigger picture. We coordinate grading, drainage, lighting, and planting to create cohesive and functional outdoor environments.
Stone elements are often paired with brickwork, wood structures, or metalwork to create texture and contrast. Whether it’s a stone path through a planted courtyard or a fireplace anchoring an outdoor living room, our designs feel balanced and rooted in place.
Maintenance and Long-Term Care
Quality stonework is built to endure, but it still benefits from proper maintenance. Our landscape maintenance team provides seasonal care to help preserve the strength and beauty of your investment.
We offer joint repair, surface cleaning, drainage inspections, and restoration services across the region from our offices in Annapolis, Clarksburg, McLean, and Easton. Our lawn care and planting teams also protect the areas surrounding stonework, ensuring plant roots and soil conditions support long-term success.
Proper maintenance keeps your stone surfaces safe, stable, and visually appealing for years to come.
