In short: Full-scope builds — grading, stone, plantings and lawn, sequenced right. Free written estimates across all seven towns we serve, owner on every job.
Free estimateWhy sequencing is the whole game in a full build
We handle landscape construction for homeowners, business owners and property managers across Wrentham, Norfolk, Franklin, Foxboro, Plainville, Medway and Bellingham. Whether you need one project or care all season long, you deal with the owner. That is true from the first phone call to the final walkthrough. There is no salesperson, call center or rotating crew of subcontractors in between. We have built our name in these towns since 2012. That work spans landscape construction and the full range of landscape and hardscape jobs. Reviews and repeat customers are the reason most of our new jobs come from word of mouth.
A finished landscape is a sequence: drainage, then hardscape, then soil, then plants, then lawn. We build in that order because redoing steps is what blows budgets.
One contract covers excavation, base work, stone, planting and lawn establishment — our own crew end to end, with Seth on site.
The difference between a landscape that lasts and one that fails within a few seasons is almost never the surface material — it is the order the work was done in and what was buried underneath. Set a patio before the grade is right and it will puddle. Plant beds before drainage is solved and the plants drown. Establish a lawn before the hardscape is finished and the new turf gets destroyed by the next phase.
Running a full build as one sequenced project, with one crew and the owner on site, is what keeps all of it coordinated. The grade, the drainage, the hardscape, the plantings and the lawn are planned together as one system rather than assembled by separate trades who never talk.
Common Landscape Construction problems we fix
Most people call us about landscape construction because something has already gone wrong, or they want to make sure it never does. These are the issues we see most often across Wrentham, Norfolk, Franklin, Foxboro, Plainville, Medway and Bellingham, and every one of them is preventable when the work is done right the first time:
- ✓A designer, an excavator and a mason who never talk to each other
- ✓Hardscape built before drainage was solved
- ✓Budgets blown redoing steps that were done out of order
- ✓No one person accountable for the finished property
- ✓Plans that look good on paper and fail in New England weather
What’s included with our Landscape Construction
- ✓Site plan and written scope
- ✓Excavation and grading
- ✓Hardscape construction
- ✓Planting and beds
- ✓Lawn establishment
- ✓Single point of contact
Every one of those items is part of the price we quote, not an upsell we spring on you halfway through. When we scope your landscape construction, we spell out exactly what is included so there are no surprises on the invoice and no corners cut where you cannot see them. If your project needs something not on this list, we will tell you up front and price it separately rather than quietly leaving it out to make the number look better.

How the job runs
We keep the process simple and predictable so you always know what is happening and what comes next. Here is how a landscape construction job runs with Ten Four, from the first call to the final walkthrough, with the owner reachable at every step.
Every build starts with a plan and a written scope so you know exactly what is being built, in what order, for what price — no allowances that balloon later.
The grade decides whether everything above it lasts. We excavate and shape the site so water moves away from the house and structures before any stone or plant goes in.
Patios, walls, walkways and steps go in on their compacted bases, then plantings and beds, then the lawn — sequenced so no finished work gets torn up by the next phase.
Because one crew and one owner run the whole project, the person who set your grade is the person who plans your drainage and plants your beds. Nothing falls between subcontractors.
What drives the price
Honest answer: landscape construction is priced by the job, not off a rate card, because no two properties are the same. Anyone who quotes you a firm price over the phone without seeing the site is guessing, and that guess usually turns into a change order later. We would rather walk the property, understand exactly what you want, and give you a real written number. A few of the things that move the price up or down:
The scope — how much hardscape, planting and lawn work is involved
Site access and how much excavation and grading the lot needs
Material selections across stone, plants and lawn
Drainage and any structural or engineering requirements
When to schedule
Hardscape can go in almost any frost-free month, but spring and early fall book up first, so the smart move is to get on the schedule a season ahead. Our calendar for landscape construction fills up fastest in spring and early fall, so the sooner you reach out, the more flexibility you have on timing. If you are planning ahead, we are happy to get you on the schedule early and confirm the details closer to the date.
The crew and the equipment
Every landscape construction job is run by Seth and our own crew, not subcontractors, with the equipment and materials matched to the work in front of us. The person who quotes your job is the person on site while it is built, so nothing gets lost between the estimate and the finished result. We show up with the right machines for the job, keep the site clean while we work, and leave it the way we would want our own property left. We source our materials from suppliers we have worked with for years, so what goes into your landscape construction is the same quality we would put on our own homes, not the cheapest thing available that week.
Our service area
Our yard is in Wrentham, so landscape construction in Wrentham, Norfolk, Franklin, Foxboro, Plainville, Medway and Bellingham is close-to-home work for us, not a drive we pad the estimate to cover. We know the clay-heavy New England soil, the frost depth that decides how we build, and the freeze-thaw that punishes anything built shallow or drained poorly. We live and work in the same towns you do. If you ever need us back, we are only a short drive away. We also care what the neighbors think of the work, because they are our neighbors too.
About your estimate
Your landscape construction estimate is free and in writing, with the scope spelled out line by line — no vague allowances that balloon once the work is underway. Seth walks the property with you before we quote it, listens to what you are actually trying to solve, and puts a real number on paper. If something changes once we open up the site, you hear about it before we do the work, not after. We will also tell you honestly if a smaller, cheaper approach would serve you just as well — we would rather do the right-sized job and earn the next one than oversell you once.
Why a local owner-operator
Seth Dias owns Ten Four and is on the job, not just on the estimate, so the person accountable for your landscape construction is the person actually doing it. We have worked in these towns since 2012 and built a five-star Google reputation the honest way, one finished job at a time. A big franchise can send a different crew every visit; with us, you get the same face, the same standards and someone who still has to see you at the hardware store next week. That accountability is the whole point of hiring a local owner-operator. Our name is on the truck, on the estimate and on the reputation. Cutting a corner on your landscape construction is never worth it to us.
