Testimonials

Thank you so much for the fantastic job you did on the stone wall at my home in Alton, New Hampshire.  When our wall fell into the lake, my wife and I were very concerned about finding someone to repair it.  We obtained several estimates and we are so pleased we decided to go with Rustic Stone & Garden Design.  As a fellow business owner, customer service, communication and a fair price are very important.  You, and your company, went above and beyond our expectations.  The project went as scheduled, on budget, and if there was a hiccup you kept us informed.  Thank you again!!

Rustic Stone & Garden Design put in a stone fireplace and an outdoor walkway and patio at our lake house in Center Harbor.  Scott’s work is truly fantastic!!  He took great care to make sure everything was exactly perfect and his workmanship is truly incredible.  Scott is the best mason that I have ever seen.  Anyone hiring Scott will be extremely pleased with his work.

Scott restored our stone wall to perfection:  sturdy, visually appealing and durable (it’s been 5 years so far).  When we needed a new patio, Scott created a lovely one which, too, has stood the test of time.  Scott’s work was neatly done, on time and on budget.  We will ask Scott to help us with all our masonry and hardscape projects.

Scott and his team at Rustic Stone & Garden Design have done a great deal of masonry work at our home in Center Harbor. They built two chimney/fireplace systems (one fieldstone and the other split face granite), installed granite veneer on the foundation, and completed thousands of square feet of irregular bluestone and granite flooring. Throughout all of this work, Scott has done a truly professional job. He, and his crew, have been great to work with, very reliable and dependable. I would be happy to
recommend them to anyone in need of masonry work. In fact, the masonry content of our project increased in part because of the great job they did (and may still increase!).

Scott – Thank you for building such a beautiful stone wall especially in light of all our unusual requests. Being on an island covered with rocks we asked that you build our wall with the rocks on the property so that it looked like it belonged – no small feat!! We also asked that you make a stone staircase incorporating stepping stones my father-in-law placed 50 years ago. His walkway was not really functional but we needed yours to be. You listened to our requests, understood the sentimental value we were trying to preserve and ultimately built is a work of art. We adore the wall and stairs. As the landscaping fills in around the stairs they will get even more beautiful. Thank you for being a true craftsman. Your work will enhance our family retreat for generations to come.

I initially hired Rustic Stone to rebuild a wall at our home in Laconia, New Hampshire. Upon seeing his work, I knew Scott was the person to take on the project of rebuilding our fireplaces on Mink Island. I challenged Scott to create two (2) very different looks. The first I wanted formal, but unique, creative, and attractive. The second was to be more of an old-fashioned camp. After much planning between he and I, Scott devised a plan to use veneer stone mixed in with quarried stone and stone native to the island. The end result was nothing short of amazing. I am in the building industry and the artistry Scott brings to work is unmatched.

We had a vision for a new stone wall and bluestone patio for our lake home. Scott was able to take our ideas and use his artistry to make our outdoor space a beautiful extension of our home. The patio fits perfectly into the landscape, and the wall, with each stone precisely placed…well, let’s just say we could not have asked for a better result. Prior to starting on the outdoor work, Scott refaced our ugly brick fireplace with gorgeous stone. The transformation was remarkable!! Scott was an absolute
pleasure to work with, and we look forward to future projects with him.

Just hire him. I love the work he has done for me. I don’t know if it’s the military background but Scott does what he says he will do, works hard, charges a fair price, and is enjoyable to work with.

When I originally built my lake home, I hired a large masonry firm to construct the walls and landscaping. Years later, a boat house was to be constructed, which required extensive masonry – walls, patios, steps, etc. The original work on our home was already deteriorating, so we needed another solution. Scott came highly recommended. It has now been years, since boat house completion and his work looks as good as the day he built it. He is truly talented and intelligent. He has built incredible columns to
mark the entrance to my home and devised plans to resolve water management issues that others could not solve. I will hire him again and again.

I live year round in the Lakes Region and my property was a blank slate. I was worried I would never be able to afford nice landscaping because of all the amazing homes in our area. I had seen Scott’s work on Facebook and really wanted him to do the work. We discussed so many ideas. Scott came up with a fire pit and patio design that I just love and could afford. He was a pleasure to work with. Each year, I will have him back to do a little more.

My wife and I were having problems with deterioration of bluestone entry steps on our lake house. We hired a masonry contractor to repair, but his work failed in one winter. Then I met Scott of Rustic Stone & Garden. He immediately knew what to do, how to make it more attractive, and executed the plan. I have since hired Rustic Stone to construct a seating area around my fire pit. Scott also built a perfect small patio which looks like it has been there forever. Glad to have found a competent, hard-working professional

Scott and his crew absolutely saved my property. I consider myself a pretty ingenious guy and I enjoy doing work myself. I rented equipment, brought in material, and tore down an old landscaping wall with plans to built a machine-laid stone wall. I quickly learned that I was in over my head. I went to the local masonry supply company and they gave me Scott’s name and number. I explained the predicament that I had removed the wall supporting my foundation and he immediately came over on Friday
night. He and his excavation team were there Monday morning to build not only a structurally sound wall, but one that is visually appealing. So thankful, he dropped everything to help us.

I am a local builder who has been in the construction business for many years. I want people on my job site who are conscientious, hard-working, fair and are easy to get along with. Scott is all those things. The added bonus is he is incredibly talented and skilled at his craft.
