Fencing, Patios & Retaining Walls in Essex County, NJ
Essex County runs from the hillside streets on the Watchung ridge in Montclair and Short Hills down to the tighter older blocks in Bloomfield, so grade is almost always part of the job here. A retaining wall often has to go in before a patio has anywhere flat to sit. We handle the wall, the patio, and the fence as one build.
Grade Comes First
On a lot with real slope — the kind you get climbing toward the Watchung ridge — a patio doesn't have anywhere flat to sit until the retaining wall is in. We look at the grade before we talk finishes, figure out where the wall needs to hold, and build the patio and fence off of that foundation instead of fighting the hillside after the fact.

Frequently Asked Questions
Do I need a retaining wall before I can put in a patio?
Often, yes — on sloped lots like the ones near the Watchung ridge, there isn't a flat, stable area for a patio until a retaining wall holds back the grade. We assess the slope during the estimate and let you know if a wall needs to come first.
Can you handle the wall, patio, and fence as one project?
Yes. We plan and build them together rather than as separate jobs, so the drainage, grading, and finish all line up instead of getting patched together later.
Do you work on the tighter, older lots closer to Newark and Bloomfield?
Yes. Older, tighter blocks need a different layout approach than a sloped suburban lot, and we size the fence, patio, or wall to fit the space we're actually working with.
How much does a fence, patio, or retaining wall cost in Essex County?
Cost depends on the size of the project, the grade of the site, and the materials you choose. We provide a written quote after walking the property in person, not a ballpark number over the phone.
Which towns in Essex County do you serve?
All of them, from Montclair and Short Hills to Bloomfield and the surrounding towns — sloped lots and flatter, older blocks alike.
