FAQs

Is landscape design included?

Yes, landscape design is included by many of our customers as part of our comprehensive services at a separate fee. Our team collaborates with you to create a custom plan tailored to your space and preferences, ensuring a cohesive and functional design. We have a horticulturist and landscape designer on staff, but we also work with other landscape designers in the Bay Area.

What is the typical timeline for a landscaping project?

Project timelines vary based on size and complexity. However, most projects take a few weeks to a few months from design approval to completion. We ensure clear communication throughout the process.

What does it cost to landscape a backyard in the Bay Area?

Landscape project costs vary widely depending on what you want and/or need to be done, the design you settle on, the condition of your property, the features you add, and the quality, attention to detail, and care your landscape contractor brings to the table. If you want a complete backyard remodel that includes demolition and regrading the area, costs may approach $40/sq ft, again depending on the work involved. If you add a pergola , walkway , custom firepit , outdoor kitchen , driveway , outdoor lighting, and more, those too add to your cost. It’s impossible to give an accurate estimate without more information. This is why we offer complimentary design consultations. We’ll go over your needs and desires, come up with a plan, a list of options, and a quote for a beautiful outdoor remodel that elevates your lifestyle and meets your budget. Submit the form below to request your own consultation.

Do I need a landscape architect or a landscape designer?

A landscape designer is typically sufficient for most residential projects. Our team offers the expertise to handle everything from creative design to professional installation, ensuring your project is in capable hands.

What kind of hardscaping do you provide?

We offer a range of hardscaping services, including paver patios, walkways, driveways, pergolas, outdoor kitchens, fire pits, and retaining walls. Each feature is designed to complement and enhance your landscape.

Do your in-house designers manage all the design work?

We work in partnership with a select team of independent, highly skilled designers who often operate their own studios and will engage with you directly. Each one is carefully vetted, and we stay closely involved throughout the process to ensure everything runs smoothly and meets your expectations.
