Masonry & Hardscaping in Vienna, VA

Vienna mixes 1950s and 1960s ramblers with newer homes built on the same lots, and the yards show it: original driveways next to new construction, and slopes that need walls and steps. We build driveways, patios, retaining walls, and steps throughout the town and the surrounding area.

Building in Vienna

Town of Vienna or Fairfax County?

The Town of Vienna is incorporated and has its own permit process; addresses just outside it fall under Fairfax County. We confirm which applies before we design or price the job.

Old and new side by side

Many Vienna lots have an original driveway or walk next to a new or renovated house. Replacing them is a chance to correct grading that was never right, so water runs away from the foundation rather than toward it.

Walls and steps on slopes

Where a lot falls away from the street or toward the back, a block retaining wall with built-in steps turns a slope into usable yard. The footing and the drainage behind the wall are what decide how long it lasts.

Frequently asked

Does the Town of Vienna need to approve my project?

If your home is inside town limits, the town handles permits for work that needs one, such as taller retaining walls. Outside the town it is Fairfax County. We check which applies first.

Can a retaining wall include steps?

Yes. Steps built into a block wall are a common way to reach a lower yard. They are designed with the wall, not added afterward, so the two settle as one.

Can you fix water running toward my house when you replace the driveway?

Yes, and we will raise it if we see it. Regrading is itemized in the estimate so you can see what it costs.
