Oakfield Stone Co: Professional Landscaping Services Serving Fond du Lac, WI 54937

By integrating stone patios, pathways, or retaining walls, we replace high-maintenance grass areas that struggle with coverage or soil conditions. This reduces the square footage of lawn needing consistent watering, directly addressing sprinkler gaps and patchiness. It creates a beautiful, permanent landscape feature that doesn't require the same care as grass.

We recommend locally-sourced, dense stones like Wisconsin Limestone or certain granites. These materials have low absorption rates, which prevents water from seeping in, freezing, and cracking. Proper installation with a deep, compacted base is also crucial. We select and install materials specifically to withstand Fond du Lac winters for long-term durability.

Absolutely. Our approach, often called 'xeriscaping' principles, uses strategic stonework to minimize thirsty lawn areas. We design features like dry river beds for drainage, stone mulch around plantings to retain moisture, and permeable patios that reduce runoff. This creates a water-wise landscape that stays attractive while easing the burden on your irrigation system.
