What are the responsibilities and job description for the Hardscape installer position at Residential Landscape?
Residential Landscape is looking for a Hardscape Installer who knows that good stone and paver work starts long before the first piece is set. Proper grade, a solid base, clean measurements, and taking the extra time to get a line right are what make an installation last.
This is a field position working on residential outdoor projects throughout the Denver area. You'll work with patios, walkways, retaining walls, steps, edging, and other built features that are part of a complete landscape project.
What You'll Work On
- Prepare and grade areas for patios, walkways, retaining walls, steps, and other hardscape installations.
- Excavate and build proper aggregate bases before setting finished materials.
- Install concrete and natural stone pavers, retaining-wall block, flagstone, edging, and related materials.
- Measure layouts, establish elevations, and maintain proper slope for drainage.
- Cut and fit stone, block, and pavers neatly around corners, curves, structures, and landscape features.
- Use compactors, masonry saws, levels, hand tools, and other construction equipment safely.
- Work from landscape drawings and measurements while making sensible adjustments when actual site conditions differ from the plan.
- Coordinate with irrigation and landscape crews so finished hardscape doesn't interfere with drainage, utilities, or planting areas.
- Keep materials organized and protect existing structures and landscaping while work is underway.
- Complete finishing work and final cleanup before the project is turned over to the homeowner.
What We're Looking For
- Previous hardscape, masonry, landscape construction, concrete, or similar installation experience is preferred.
- Experience installing pavers, retaining walls, flagstone, or outdoor stonework.
- Able to read measurements and understand basic grades, elevations, and drainage.
- Comfortable operating masonry saws, compactors, and common construction tools.
- Able to perform physical outdoor work and safely lift construction materials.
- Valid driver's license is preferred.
- Dependable, careful with finished work, and willing to correct something that isn't properly aligned or installed.
- Experience operating skid steers, mini excavators, or similar equipment is a plus.
Benefits
- $48,000 – $65,000 annual salary, depending on experience and hardscape skills.
- Health insurance options.
- Paid vacation and personal time.
- Paid company holidays.
- Retirement plan options.
- Company tools and safety equipment where applicable.
- Paid equipment and job-specific training.
- Opportunities to develop equipment-operation and advanced hardscape skills.
- Advancement opportunities into Lead Installer, Crew Foreman, or Landscape Construction Foreman positions.
