Stone walls and natural stone works

Stone walls are a hallmark of the Ticino landscape: they retain soil, frame beds and steps, and age gracefully when built with the right technique and stone. Nikola Giardini e Figli SAGL builds walls, low retaining structures, staircases and borders in natural stone for private gardens across Canton Ticino.

Works we carry out

• Retaining walls and terracing
• Stone steps and staircases
• Bed and path edging
• Repair and consolidation of existing walls
• Integration with paving and planting

Technique and materials

Each wall needs proper foundations, drainage behind the face and stone chosen for height and load. We use local stone and proven methods for long-term stability, including on sloping ground typical of the Locarno hills and Lake Maggiore shores.

From small decorative borders to larger retaining structures, we manage the site with the same care: accurate levels, clean finishes and respect for the architectural context. The result must be solid, coherent and easy to maintain.
