STOWE CONTRACTING / MONTEREY BAY
Monterey built
Hardscape first
Paver driveways, outdoor spaces, remodels, and site-ready construction—a considered approach from the ground up.
01 / THE STOWE APPROACH
Good work begins
before the first stone
Stowe Contracting was founded in 1987 by Gary and Debbie Stowe, after their military assignment at Fort Ord. From the beginning, the company was built on professionalism, integrity, and respect — for clients, for crews, and for the work itself.
In 2004, Stowe Contracting added a grading division, extending the company’s reach beyond hardscape into site preparation and earthwork. Stowe owns its trucks and equipment, giving direct control over scheduling, quality, and the coordination that larger projects require.
Planning, site preparation, and field coordination come together to shape outdoor spaces that belong to their surroundings.

Built with care.
Set in stone.
From the first stone to the finishing detail, craftsmanship is what brings a project together.
02 / A CLOSER LOOK
The difference
is in the details
Every project starts with materials chosen for the setting. From paver driveways and patios to retaining walls and site preparation, Stowe brings construction and hardscape experience together. Explore Belgard / Oldcastle paver options for your project.

A considered finish
