The Setting Stone Company is a hardscaping contractor based at 140 Wharf St in Bowmanville, Ontario. With 15+ years of experience across Clarington and Durham Region, we build interlock driveways and patios, natural flagstone walkways, retaining walls, stone steps, decks and fences for homeowners in Courtice, Bowmanville, Newcastle, Oshawa, Whitby, Ajax and Pickering.
The company is led by Tim, and customers tend to mention him by name in their reviews: he explains the plan clearly and keeps you updated while the work is happening. Our own crew does the building, with no subcontracted labour. A lot of what makes stone work last sits where you never see it: the excavation, the compacted base and the drainage. We put our care there first. Read what customers say on our reviews page, or browse our services.
Build outdoor spaces that still look right and sit level years from now, by doing the groundwork properly on every job, big or small.
Be the contractor Durham Region homeowners recommend to their neighbours, because the quote was clear, the crew showed up and the site was left clean.

Our Google reviews keep coming back to the same few things. Clear communication from start to finish. A crew that shows up when promised and has worked through rain and weekends to stay on schedule. A site left clean. We give you an itemized quote up front, walk you through your material options and confirm what permits apply before any work begins, so you know what to expect.
We measure, look at your grade and drainage, and give you a clear, itemized number. No pressure and no obligation.

Four things we hold ourselves to on every job, from a single front step to a full backyard.
We have worked across Clarington and Durham Region long enough to know how local soils, slopes and winters treat stone.
Driveways and patios are graded to move water away from your home's foundation, and retaining walls get a gravel drainage layer and perforated pipe.
No subcontracted labour. The crew that builds your project is ours, and you know who to talk to.
We protect your lawn and gardens during the work, then clean up and walk through the finished job with you.
