What's included

What this service includes.

Landscape design

A plan drawn around how you actually use the space — sun, slope, water, and the life you want out there.

Construction and install

Grading, drainage, and build-out done in the right order, so what goes in stays in.

Hardscape building

Patios, walls, and walkways built into the design from the start, not bolted on after.

Planting

Trees, shrubs, and beds chosen for Sonoma County's sun and soil, planted to establish fast.

Transplanting

Established trees and shrubs you love, moved carefully so they stay part of the new space.

Common questions

Design and installation, answered.

How long does a landscape project take?
It depends on the size and scope, from a few days for a smaller install to a few weeks for a full build. We'll give you a clear timeline with your quote.
Do you handle both the design and the build?
Yes. One crew handles the whole project, from the first design through grading, hardscape, and final planting, so nothing gets lost in a handoff.
Do I need permits, and can you help?
If your project needs permits, we'll flag that early and walk you through what's involved, so there are no surprises to your timeline.
Can you work around plants I want to keep?
Yes. We design around what you want to keep and can transplant established trees and shrubs so the plants you love stay part of the new space.
