About

Established in 1994, by Al Lotthammer and Paul Lura, Glacial Ridge, Inc began as a design and build landscape contractor. In 2014 Paul Lura retired from Glacial Ridge and Al’s son Keith Lotthammer became part owner.

Al and Keith’s combined 75+ years of experience in landscaping and paver installations has led Glacial Ridge to specialize in paver projects for commercial, public, and large-scale residential applications. They publicly bid on projects in Minnesota, Northern Iowa, and Western Wisconsin.

What People Say


The property looks much better and will be so much easier to maintain now that the old hardscape has been removed.
