Hardscape contractor — boulder walls, patios & driveways — Woodbury, MN
See our work →Woodbury properties deserve hardscape built to last
Woodbury is one of the fastest-growing suburbs in the Twin Cities — and one of the most demanding when it comes to hardscape quality. Large lots, rolling terrain, pond access, and homes that represent serious investment mean homeowners here expect craftsmanship that matches. Heritage Outdoors has completed multiple boulder wall and paver projects in Woodbury, and we know this community's terrain well.
Woodbury's landscape — rolling grades, drainage ponds, mature trees, and properties that back up to natural corridors — creates specific challenges for hardscape. Boulder walls that follow grade changes naturally. Paver patios with proper drainage routing. Retaining systems built for surcharge load when a deck or driveway sits above. We plan for all of it from the first site visit.
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
Woodbury hardscape questions we hear often
How much does a paver patio cost in Woodbury, MN?
Paver patios in Woodbury 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 boulder wall cost in Woodbury, MN?
Boulder walls in Woodbury typically run $40–$100+ per square foot depending on wall height, boulder size, and site access. Heritage Outdoors sources boulders direct from Minnesota quarries — no middleman markup. Most residential projects range from $5,000 to $20,000+.
Do I need a permit for a retaining wall in Woodbury, MN?
Woodbury generally requires a permit for retaining walls over 4 feet in height. Walls under 4 feet typically don't require a permit, but surcharge load from a driveway or structure above the wall can lower that threshold. Heritage Outdoors checks all permit requirements before work begins.
What is the difference between a boulder wall and a block retaining wall?
Boulder walls use natural fieldstone from Minnesota quarries — no concrete, no polymeric sand, no temperature-sensitive materials. They're well-suited for fall and early spring installs and look better with age. Block retaining walls like Versa-Lok are manufactured concrete systems — precise and ideal for taller walls requiring geo grid reinforcement. Heritage Outdoors builds both and recommends the right option for your site.
Why are boulder walls popular in Woodbury?
Woodbury properties often have rolling terrain, pond access, and mature landscaping that pairs naturally with boulder walls. Natural stone blends with the landscape in a way manufactured block never quite matches. Heritage Outdoors sources fieldstone boulders direct from Minnesota quarries — no markup, no middleman.
