A yard that holds its shape.
Planting is the part everyone looks at. Grading, soil and irrigation are the part that decides whether it still looks like that in three summers.
We set out the whole yard together, so the lawn drains, the beds get the water they need, and the stonework sits on a base that will not move.
- Grading and drainage before anything is planted
- Irrigation zoned to what is actually growing
- Stonework on a base built for our soil
What we take on.
Lawn design and installation
Levelled, drained and edged, with turf or seed chosen for how much sun and traffic the space really gets.
Garden and planting beds
Planting picked for a Los Angeles summer, laid out so it looks finished the first year and better by the third.
Irrigation
Zoned and timed to the planting, with heads placed where they water the garden rather than the path.
Trees and shrubs
Specimen planting placed for shade, screening and root room, not just for how it looks on day one.
Pathways and stonework
Set on a proper base with joints that stay tight, so the surface does not sink or shift.
Outdoor lighting
Low-voltage runs put in before the planting, so the garden is usable after dark without a trench through it later.
Down to the very last detail.
The things people ask us first.
Thinking about landscaping?
We will walk the site, tell you straight what it will take, and put a real number on it. The visit and the estimate are free.
