An outdoor living project is a worthwhile investment in your property value and quality of life at home. It can also feel like a big undertaking for a busy homeowner in West Chester, Pennsylvania. At Dutchies Stoneworks & Outdoor Living, we make the process of creating your dream space as simple as possible for you. With decades of experience and local expertise, we offer professional guidance and recommendations, creative designs, durable construction, and friendly service every step of the way.
Your vision is our priority, so we seek to understand how you want to spend your time outdoors. You will work with our outdoor living designer to ensure every detail of the plan is as you imagined before we begin construction. With our background as stonemasons, we love using natural stone for patios, driveways, retaining walls, and more, but we are skilled in the use of a wide range of materials to ensure we can meet your needs. Our craftsmanship is unparalleled, and we use the highest-quality materials we can find, backed by warranty for your peace of mind
With our hospitality-inspired care, we strive to make your experience as rewarding as the finished project. We always strive to do what we promise, and you can rely on us for open communication, clear expectations, and a commitment to you for the long haul. A year after your outdoor living space is complete, we check in to make sure you are still satisfied with it.
Our unwavering commitment to excellence is grounded in respect and efficiency. When working with us, a Dutchies crew shows up on time, minimizes disruptions to your life, and maintains a clean, quiet job site. When appropriate, we let your neighbors know when we will be there and what we will be doing, and we treat your property as if it were our own. You’ll find our construction process to be every bit as smooth and efficient as the design process.

Fill out our contact form to tell us more about your vision and landscaping needs. You will have the opportunity to schedule a 15-minute call at your convenience, and we will send you more information so you can prepare for our conversation. Check out our budgeting guide to get a sense of what is possible with your investment.
Discuss your options for plants and hardscaping materials, placement of features, and budget considerations with our Project Strategist. This is a great time to ask questions so you can feel confident in your decision to proceed with us.
At your convenience, you will meet with one of our owners for an hour to review your outdoor space. We will take pictures and measurements and offer recommendations based on our experience and your ideas. The $179 fee for this consultation is credited back to you upon the agreement signing.
Typically within one week of your onsite consultation (or within two weeks for larger projects), we will meet with you on your property to review the 2D renderings, making it easier for you to visualize the completed project. 3D renderings are also available for an additional cost. At this meeting we will discuss a price range for your complete landscape.
For larger projects, we meet again to review and finalize the design and help you make your material selections. You will approve every detail, and we will make any necessary revisions to ensure the plan meets your needs and expectations.
When you are thrilled with your design, you will receive a detailed quote, sign the agreement, and make a deposit. We will review your payment plan with you so you know what to expect as we proceed, and your project will be added to our construction calendar.
Two weeks before we start the installation, you will meet your Project Manager and crew leader. You can expect the team to work with respect for your property and the entire neighborhood, and they will leave the site clean each day. Your Project Manager will be your primary point of contact, and you are welcome to reach out at any point with questions and concerns.
You are invited to take a walk with us through the finished project to make sure you are satisfied with every detail. We will share all the details of the manufacturer’s warranties on your hardscaping and the five-year warranty on our craftsmanship. This is also when we will collect your final payment.
Like the landscape itself, we are with you for the long haul. After one year, we will return to make sure the work is holding up and see if you have any questions or concerns.
Inspired designs. Expert construction. No matter what you envision for your outdoor space, our team can transform those ideas into a lasting landscape with a range of services and a meticulous approach.
