STONE & TIMBER

Stone & Timber is a Plymouth, Massachusetts masonry outfit built around hardscape work — paver driveways, retaining walls, stone patios, and walkways — that shows up job after job in a review history running from 2020 through this year. The name that comes up in nearly every account is Mike, the owner. Reviewers across six years describe him fitting jobs in on short notice, walking customers through material choices with catalogs and portfolio photos, and finishing ahead of schedule more often than not. A 2021 customer whose backyard was a "dust-bowl" before the project called the result a beautifully hardscaped courtyard, complete with a stucco finish on the foundation and cobblestone planter borders; a 2023 customer whose driveway got a new paver section matched to the existing color and shape recommended the company without reservation. The praise holds up under specifics rather than adjectives: a 2021 Association job turned a "roots and bumps" path into a stone-dust walkway; a 2025 pool patio is described as flawless from installation to final result; and even a mixed 2020 review, where a hot tub patio grew larger than planned because of a previous contractor's work, still closed with the reviewer saying they would hire Mike's crew again. The one account that breaks from the pattern is a 2023 report that the job had not yet started at the time of posting — worth checking on if timing matters for a specific project. With 93 reviews averaging 4.9 stars on both Angi and HomeAdvisor (a shared listing, not two separate pools) and a matching profile on Thumbtack, Stone & Timber has one of the deeper, more consistent hardscape track records in the area. Anyone considering a patio, driveway, or retaining wall project has years of specific, dated accounts to look at before calling.
