At Dutchies Stoneworks & Outdoor Living, we specialize in comprehensive landscape design and installation to create a dream space unique to you and your home in West Chester, Pennsylvania.
Our goal is to make your landscape design as simple and enjoyable as possible. Our collaborative process includes our professional guidance and recommendations based on your budget, natural landscaping features, aesthetic preferences, intended use of your space, and more. Whether we are adding a single patio or fireplace to your existing backyard or starting from scratch for a full outdoor transformation, we offer friendly service and unparalleled attention to detail.
As professional stonemasons, we are especially excited when your landscape design includes natural stone features! However, we have training and experience with a wide variety of high-quality materials, so we can meet your needs. Our craftsmanship is proudly backed by warranty.
With our hospitality-inspired care, we are with you for the long haul, offering open communication and transparency you can trust. The journey is just as important as the destination! Throughout the construction phase, our crews show up on time, work with respect, and maintain a clean, quiet jobsite. After your project is complete, we will check in a year later to make sure you still love it.

Accolades are nice, but the greatest reward is knowing you love your landscape. Notice the artistry and attention to detail in these projects, and find some inspiration for your own backyard oasis.
We first strive to ensure we are the right fit for your project. If so, we proceed with a process that prioritizes efficiency, transparency, and client satisfaction:
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.
Our education and experience in landscape architecture allow us to tackle complex high-end projects, accounting for every detail as we create your backyard oasis.
It all starts with a detailed plan, and our designers work closely with you to personalize every aspect of your backyard experience. Rely on our expert guidance as we discuss material selection, placement of features, and proactive problem-solving.
With a passion for fine craftsmanship, our stonemasons and construction experts build retaining walls, patios, pergolas, flowerbeds, and so much more, all customized to suit your landscape and lifestyle goals.
The space of your dreams may include outdoor kitchens, fireplaces and other fire features, stone or paver patios, pavilions, and so much more. Merge comfort, luxury, and creativity for a one-of-a-kind outdoor living experience that elevates your lifestyle.
This is what we are known for among landscaping companies in the West Chester area. Our craftsmen take pride in our custom stone driveways, walkways, stairs, travertine and flagstone pools, stone chimneys and pillars, and more—and you will, too.
Bioswales, rain gardens, dry streams, and other erosion control and stormwater management solutions can be as beautiful as they are practical. These property-protecting measures are an essential part of your landscape design and installation project.
