BEE LAWN SPECIAL | Contact us TODAY about BEE FRIENDLY LAWNS
The best patios work like an extra room, one that just happens to have the sky for a ceiling. They pull the kitchen table outside in June, give the kids a hard surface for chalk and scooters, and keep a pot of herbs within reach of the back door. We plan each St. Paul patio installation around how your household actually lives, then shape the paths, steps, and plantings around it into one outdoor landscape design. As patio installers who keep every project with one local team, Minnehaha Falls Landscaping takes it from the first drawing to the last swept joint.

We are long time customers of Minnehaha Falls Landscaping. As I sit on my porch watching the monarch butterflies enjoying my pollinator garden I appreciate the service we’ve had over the years. It started with their snow removal service as we decided doing it ourselves was too much. Next up were the pollinator gardens and replacing our lawn with no mow bee gardens. This year we added garden maintenance to the mix so gardening is not a chore but is enjoyable. We recommend them very highly.
Minnehaha Falls landscaping did an amazing job transforming our yard. They added beautiful plantings that made the yard feel fresh and new. The lighting they installed really makes everything shine at night. They were professional, creative and very easy to work with. We have had so many compliments from our neighbors! I highly recommend to anyone!

A St. Paul patio can involve historic review and watershed programs, depending on where you live. These are the points we review with every St. Paul homeowner.
The bigger questions in a St. Paul patio project are usually design, drainage, whether your block falls under historic review, and which watershed covers your address. We sort those out at the first visit, so nothing changes after the plan is drawn.
Thoughtful patio design and installation begin with a surface that suits the house and the way you’ll use the space. These three are a good place to start the conversation.
Patio pricing depends as much on the site as on the size. Here’s what moves the number most.
Your itemized estimate breaks out every one of these, and you can look through our full lineup of patio options while you decide what matters most.
A St. Paul patio comes together in three steps. Keeping them with one team means fewer handoffs and a plan that holds from start to finish.
We visit the yard, talk through how you’ll use the patio, and check for historic district review or grant eligibility.
We turn your ideas into a detailed design and itemized estimate, so you can see the full plan before anything is ordered.
Our crew digs out, builds the base, lays the surface, tidies the site, and follows up afterward.
St. Paul has been part of our work since the company began in 1957, from historic blocks to newer neighborhoods. Here’s what that history brings to your patio.

Your patio is designed by the same team that builds it.

Planning more around the patio? A rain garden or a bed of native plants can sit right beside the patio, and our planting, lawn, and design services let us build them as a single project.
In Minnesota, the outdoor season is precious, which is exactly why the place you spend it should feel right. A patio made for your home gives every good-weather day somewhere to go, from a slow Sunday to an evening that stretches past sunset. Tell us what you have in mind, and we’ll meet you in the yard, listen, and design a space you’ll be glad to step into all season. Beyond St. Paul? We also work in other cities we cover near St. Paul.
St. Paul is split among four watershed organizations: the Capitol Region Watershed District, the Ramsey-Washington Metro Watershed District, the Lower Mississippi River WMO, and the Mississippi WMO. Each runs its own rules and programs, so we check your address before planning any grant-eligible features like permeable pavers or a rain garden.
For water-friendly designs, often yes. In the Capitol Region Watershed District, Clean Water Project Grants can reimburse most of the eligible costs of permeable pavement or a rain garden once the project passes CRWD inspection, and we can build a rain garden next to the patio as part of the same project.
Possibly. St. Paul notes that hardscaping, such as pavers, can require heritage preservation design review, the same review that can apply to other exterior work, like our St. Paul retaining wall projects. We check your address early, so the review is part of the schedule.
As the education and advocacy branch, we work with community partners to create safe places for our pollinators, one garden, yard, business, school, church, conversation at a time. We know that together, we can build the buzz!
As the construction branch of Minnehaha Falls Landscaping, we build outdoor decks, steps, railings, pergolas, fences, and planters. When it gets colder, we step inside to remodel living spaces with creativity and craftsmanship, including cabinetry.
As the gardening branch, we work within your landscape to grow plants, flowers, shrubs and woodland gardens that are beautiful, restorative, and safe for birds, people, pets, and pollinators. We also install bee-friendly lawns and do spring and fall clean-up.
