See our work →Lakeville homeowners who want outdoor spaces worth the investment
Lakeville has the highest median household income of any large suburb in Minnesota — and it shows in the properties here. Large lots, newer construction, walkout basements, and homeowners who invest seriously in their outdoor spaces. Heritage Outdoors serves Lakeville as the natural south extension of our Burnsville work, bringing the same crew and the same standards to one of the Twin Cities' most desirable growth communities.
Lakeville is growing fast — it's the 9th largest city in Minnesota and adding residents every year. That growth means a steady stream of new builds with blank-slate backyards ready for patios, fire pit areas, and outdoor living builds. It also means a growing base of 1990s and early 2000s homes whose original concrete and timber work is starting to show its age. Both markets are exactly where Heritage Outdoors does its best work.
Heritage Outdoors is a family operation. Jacob and Haven are involved in every project from the first call to the final walkthrough. You're not hiring a company that sends a crew you've never met. You're hiring us.

What makes us different from every other contractor
Lakeville hardscape questions we hear often
How much does a paver patio cost in Lakeville, MN?
Paver patios in Lakeville typically run $35–$50+ per square foot installed. A 400 square foot patio ranges from $14,000–$22,000+ depending on material, design complexity, and site conditions. Heritage Outdoors provides transparent, itemized estimates with no surprises.
How much does a paver driveway cost in Lakeville, MN?
Paver driveways in Lakeville typically run $35–$50+ per square foot installed. A standard two-car driveway ranges from $18,000–$35,000+ depending on size, material choice, and site conditions. Lakeville's newer large-lot properties are well-suited for premium paver driveway installations.
How much does a retaining wall or boulder wall cost in Lakeville, MN?
Block retaining walls in Lakeville run $55–$70 per square foot installed. Boulder walls run $40–$100+ per square foot depending on height, boulder size, and site access. Heritage Outdoors sources boulders direct from Minnesota quarries — no middleman markup.
Do I need a permit for a retaining wall or patio in Lakeville, MN?
Lakeville requires a permit for retaining walls over 4 feet in height. Freestanding patios generally do not require a permit unless attached to the home or affecting drainage. Heritage Outdoors checks all City of Lakeville permit requirements before work begins.
Why do pavers outperform concrete in Lakeville's climate?
Minnesota's freeze-thaw cycle destroys poured concrete over time — repeated freezing and thawing causes cracking and heaving that can't be patched effectively. Individual pavers flex with ground movement and can be reset if a section shifts. A concrete driveway that cracks needs full replacement. A paver driveway that shifts gets reset, often in an afternoon.
