Patios, pools and outdoor living, designed around your yard and built by Charlie Ingram's own crew, from the first stone to the last light.
What can we build for you?
From a new paver patio to a pool with its whole surround to a pavilion with a fireplace inside it, every project starts with a walk around your yard and a conversation about how you actually want to live outside.
In ground pools and everything around them, coping, decks, walls and lighting, designed and built as one project by one crew.

Stamped walkways, patios and flatwork, it's in our name, and it's the budget smart way to cover serious ground.

Most hardscape photos are taken at noon. Ours earn a second look after dark , because lighting is designed into the walls, stairs and fire features from the first sketch, not stapled on at the end. This is what your yard looks like when the workday is over and you're actually in it.

Meet the owner
DreamScapes Masonry and Concrete is Charlie's company, and he is on every job it takes on. The work you see across this site, the pools, the timber pavilions, the stone that gets lit at night, is his crew's, on real Maryland yards.
The way it works is simple: one crew owns your project from excavation to the final walkthrough. The people who set the base are the people who lay the stone, wire the lights and hand it back to you, so nothing gets lost between trades, and nobody points at anybody else.
Licensed and insured, and happy to show it before a shovel touches your yard.
