Replacing a rotted wood deck with a stone patio and building walls, paths, and patios around a new home are jobs New View customers have described. The Hopkinton company says Doug and Ryan DeWolfe lead its landscape design and construction team. It reports 30 years in business and offers residential and commercial outdoor projects, including stonework, pools, and outdoor kitchens. A June 2026 customer said Ryan and his team removed the old deck and installed a stone patio, praising the stone and attention to detail. The customer also said Ryan explained their options without trying to upsell and responded quickly to questions by text. In another June review, a customer described Doug working on a new-construction site that needed its outdoor spaces designed and built from scratch. Doug listened to their design, convenience, and budget priorities, produced custom renderings, made adjustments, recommended native shrubs, and built walls, paths, and patios. A July 2026 homeowner described New View’s work on both the front and back yard. They said Ryan checked in consistently, answered questions patiently, and was willing to alter course as the project developed. That customer specifically said Ryan acted like a general contractor on their project and praised the subcontractors he provided. Earlier customers described patio construction, planting, and broader backyard renovations. In a February 2024 review, a customer called New View a turnkey landscaping company with expertise in stonework and plantings and said Doug, Ryan, and the team were a pleasure to work with. Another customer writing that month described hiring New View for a backyard fire pit and patio, with Ryan involved throughout. A separate February 2024 reviewer said the company had completed several stone projects for them, including front steps, a patio, a driveway, a fire pit, and a grill. The handling of costs and schedules also drew specific praise. A December 2024 customer described an extensive backyard patio and landscaping renovation, saying Ryan and Dougie were upfront about costs and timelines and that the project stayed on budget. In an October 2024 review, another customer said Doug and Ryan answered calls at night and on weekends and arrived when they said they would. New View has an A+ Better Business Bureau grade; BBB describes it as a non-accredited Hopkinton landscape contractor established and incorporated in 1989.
New View is absolutely PHENOMENAL!!! We met with four landscaping companies before deciding to go with New View based on a friend's recommendation, and we are beyond happy we listened to our friend. Dougie and Ryan and the entire team...they are all extremely knowledgeable, reliable, trustworthy, creative, and talented. We thought their vision was beautiful and their finished product was even more gorgeous in real life. We are so happy with our yard, both front and back. Ryan guided us the entire way, checked in consistently, was always on time and positive, professional, and super helpful. He answered every question patiently and was open to altering course at any point to make us happy with the result. He really acted like a GC on our project and each and every sub-contractor he provided was incredible. Thank you, New View, especially Ryan, for giving us the yard of our dreams and then some. We never want to leave!
Doug and his team were fantastic! They came on during new construction, for a site that pretty much needed every designed and built from scratch. Doug really listened to what we were looking for in terms of design, convenience and budget. He drew up custom renderings, made adjustments, recommended native shrubbery and built amazing walls, paths and patios. I highly recommend New View for any project large or small.
So grateful for the New View team's time and attention to our yard. By partnering with New View, we have been able to create a setting filled with natural beauty and in which we can enjoy cherished family time. Thank you!
We hired Ryan and his team to remove our old rotted wood deck and replace it with a stone patio, and we are really happy with how it turned out. The patio looks beautiful and was installed with high-quality stone and great attention to detail. Ryan was professional, honest, and easy to work with throughout the whole process. He did not try to upsell us and was straightforward about our options, which we really appreciated. Communication was also excellent. Any time I had a question, Ryan responded quickly by text and kept us updated. Overall, it was a very positive experience, and I would definitely recommend Ryan and his team to anyone looking for patio or hardscape work.
We hired New View for an extensive backyard patio and landscaping renovation project and it was the best decision we made. Ryan and Dougie were excellent from start to finish. They were true partners ensuring the design was everything we wanted and so much more. And on top of that, they took great care to ensure our project was done in a timely fashion and stayed on budget. All of their sub-contractors were excellent and the work product was absolutely top-notch. Ryan takes so much pride in his work and that comes through and allowed us to feel comfortable throughout the project. Both Ryan and Dougie were honest and upfront with costs and timelines and there were no surprises. We are so happy with the way the project came out and would recommend them to everyone. We really cannot say enough excellent things about New View.
