What drives a top landscape design firm in the Finger Lakes?
In this episode of The Real Build, I sit down with Kyle Stevens, visionary founder of Stonewood & Waters Craftsmen, the premier luxury landscape design firm serving Rochester and the Finger Lakes since 1992. Kyle’s people-first leadership, rooted in faith and family, has shaped an organization where craftsmanship and client trust go hand in hand.
We dive deep into:
Living out of expectation, not appreciation – shifting your mindset
Earning trust instead of selling – why credibility wins
Embracing humility: “We deserve nothing” – the power of gratitude
Looking for ways to bless others – leadership through service
Cultivating gratitude over requests – a daily practice that transforms
Whether you’re in landscaping, custom home building, or any client-driven business, this conversation is packed with actionable insights on building a legacy that thrives on integrity, vision, and relationship.
