Hardscape contractor — raised patios, firepit areas & outdoor living — Summit Hill, Saint Paul
See our work →Summit Hill sets a high bar — we've met it twice
Heritage Outdoors has completed two direct projects in Summit Hill — one of Saint Paul's most architecturally significant and highly valued residential neighborhoods. The first was an RCP Palisade wall raised patio that was among the first installations of that system in the country. The second was a full backyard transformation with a Willow Creek firepit patio, sod, and garden beds.
Summit Hill's Victorian and early 20th century homes command some of the highest property values in Saint Paul. Outdoor hardscape here needs to match the character and quality of the home — and the homeowners know the difference. The RCP Palisade project came about because the system itself was new to market and this client wanted to be early. That's the kind of homeowner Summit Hill attracts, and it's the kind of project Heritage Outdoors is built for.
Heritage Outdoors is based in Saint Paul. Summit Hill is part of our home market and we take the work here seriously.
