Patio Design & Hardscape in Medford

By Allan at American Elm Landscape · building in Medford since 1989

Medford gives us a little more room to work than the city neighborhoods — a mix of Victorians, capes, and two-families with real backyards — but the goal is the same: a patio built right and built to last through New England winters. We've been building here for over 37 years.

From sloped lots that need grading to wetter yards that pool after a storm, Medford projects often come down to doing the unseen work properly: excavation, base, and drainage. That's exactly the part we don't cut corners on.

Where we work in Medford

All over town — Medford Square, West Medford, Wellington, the Hillside, and the neighborhoods near Tufts, the Mystic River, and the edge of the Middlesex Fells.

What we build in Medford

On a recent West Medford project, we regraded a backyard that flooded every spring and built a large paver patio with a fire pit — dry, level, and ready for summer.

From a customer

“Allan and his crew are awesome! He helped us with an extensive backyard project — installing our large outdoor patio, creating a dog run, and lots of planting. Allan also came through in a pinch when we were out of town during the first big storm this year. Love this crew!” — Andrea D.

Common questions

What parts of Medford do you serve?

Medford Square, West Medford, Wellington, the Hillside, and the neighborhoods around Tufts and the Mystic River.

My Medford yard floods or slopes toward the house — can you fix that?

Yes. Grading and drainage are half of a patio done right — we pitch the site and build the base so water moves away from your foundation instead of pooling under the pavers.

How long does a Medford patio take to build?

Most projects run 3–7 days depending on size and access.
