About Us

Crafting Timeless Masonry & Hardscapes in Central and Southern Vermont

Leighton's Landscapes & Masonry was founded on the principle that connecting nature with leisure and incorporating it with day-to-day life makes for a better existence. We bring over [X] years of experience in custom masonry, hardscaping, and stonework to homes and businesses throughout Central and Southern Vermont. Our skilled craftsmen specialize in creating durable, beautiful, and functional outdoor and indoor spaces, from stone patios and retaining walls to fireplaces, chimneys, and veneer installations.

Landscaping is so much more than a meticulously maintained lawn or a nice stone patio. It is the creation of space that one can learn and grow in. It is the ability to enjoy nature in its midst, and not through a window or from a deck chair.
