What People Are Saying:

"Nick is the "Real Deal!" It started with a very timely and competitive quote. He worked us into his schedule much quicker than we thought and his work was great! He even got our work done in the midst of welcoming a new child into his family. Nick and his crew are great and I would highly recommend them!"

— Doug Valentine

"Our experience with Whitters Hardscapes was excellent in all ways. They were professional, efficient and did a great job of communicating. Nick and his crew did a great job of dismantling a large old failing retaining wall and replaced with a new beautiful terraced wall in a weeks time. We couldn't happier with our decision to use this firm and would highly recommend them to others. You will not be disappointed."

— Duane Swatrzendruber

"Whitters did an excellent job bringing the final pieces of our yard together after our build. They installed our retaining walls, tile drains, graded, seeded (and then graded again, re-seeded + more straw and hydro-mulch due to heavy winds and rain the first time). They were efficient and clean on our property. They were attentive to my concerns, which at times were a bit much, and ensured we were satisfied with the end product."

— Emily Patel

Hardscaping vs. Landscaping; What’s the difference?

Landscaping is an overarching term that defines making a property more attractive by altering the existing design. This encompasses hardscaping, which focuses on making the area more attractive and useful by using stone materials to create walls, patios and more. We specialize in the hardscaping parts, but can absolutely do it all!


Do you have displays of material we can look at?

We are happy to walk you through material selection using our suppliers’ online displays, or you are welcome to visit King’s Material in Cedar Rapids or Coralville to see them in person.
