Before & after
Drag to see the transformation.
Every project starts with what's already there — and ends with something you'll want to live in.
Why Diligent Hands
Craft you can walk on.
We're not the biggest landscaping company in Durango — we're the one you call when the details matter. Twelve years of stone-set patios, waterfalls and xeriscape gardens across La Plata County.
Custom Stone Design Specialists
Stone is what we love. Every wall, patio and stair is designed and hand-set by our own crew — no cookie-cutter kits.
Local, Reliable Crew
Ben and his team are here in La Plata County year-round. We show up when we say we will, and we finish what we start.
Built for Colorado's Climate
High-altitude sun, freeze-thaw cycles, drought — we design and build landscapes that thrive here for decades.
Free On-Site Consultations
We walk your property, listen to your vision, and put together a clear plan — no pressure, no obligation.
Kind words
From the people we've worked with.
"We hired Diligent Hands to replace our grass in front of our house with stone. The work is beautiful. The crew were hard working and very nice. They accommodated changes and added lovely touches all around. We highly recommend them."
