Landscape Construction

Our landscape construction team brings your design to life with care and precision. We handle everything from grading and soil prep to plantings, irrigation, and lighting. Whether working from our plans or in partnership with your architect, we’re known for getting the details right.

Hardscaping

We’re lucky to have talented craftspeople on our team who can execute beautiful dry stone walls, firepits, patios, outdoor kitchens, walkways & driveways. We blend time honored techniques with modern sensibilities and specialize in granite and natural stone. We’re also certified Soake Pool installers, helping you make the most of Maine’s warmer months with beautiful, low-maintenance plunge pools.

Fine Gardening

Terrapin landscapes grow more beautiful over time, thanks to our seasonal care team. Available exclusively to our installation clients, our fine gardening service includes spring and fall plantings, pruning, mulching, and tailored attention to your space’s unique needs. It’s about preserving the integrity of your landscape long after the last stone is set.

Estimating & Project Management

For architects, builders, and discerning homeowners, we offer accurate budgeting and seamless coordination across all phases of a landscape project. Our estimator helps project teams bid with confidence and reduce surprises later on. Once underway, we oversee timelines, subcontractors, permitting, and materials—so you can stay focused on the big picture.

Featured Project: The Sebago Project

Naples, Maine

Nestled between tall pines and the shoreline, this Sebago Lake retreat was designed to celebrate its natural surroundings. Terrapin provided full landscape and hardscape design and installation, including natural stonework, lush plantings, irrigation, lighting, and turf. The palette of textures and heights creates a sense of movement and calm, especially as it catches the golden light of late afternoon. At its heart sits a handcrafted firepit—offering panoramic lake views and a place to gather, reflect, and stay awhile.

The Terrapin Way

We don’t chase trends—we work with the land. For over 20 years, Terrapin has taken a thoughtful, place-based approach to every project, using native Maine species and reclaimed or locally sourced stone to create outdoor spaces that feel timeless and customized. Our team includes some of the most dedicated craftspeople around—people who know that good work takes time, and that every stone, root, and line has its place. We follow the natural rhythm of the site, shaping landscapes that are built to last.
