Patio, garden paths - contractor for hardscaping?
Hello,
We are going to be seeking out a contractor or garden professional of some kind to a) fix our stone driveway, b) install a patio in the backyard, likely using stone we already have, and c) create some pathways, using either stone or gravel. The backyard is fairly small. We won’t have trouble picking out which plants to use, but designing and/or installing the patio and paths is different. (It’s possible we will be able to mostly “sketch out” the desired areas, so it may be more a matter of installation than anything else. )
Does anyone have a recommendation for a contractor or landscaper who does such hardscaping, and would be willing to work on a small-ish job? Thanks for any recommendations you can provide.

Matt Hornby is a licensed landscape architect in Berkeley who does beautiful stone work. He built a flagstone walkway in my sloping backyard that still looks great 15 years later, and he also built me a stacked-rock retaining wall with a curving seat. He does top-of-the-line work and stands by what he builds. You can view examples of his work on his website: http://www.matthornbygardendesign.com
