The Yards We Fix

## Landscape and Yard Challenges Across Greater Los Angeles?

Most projects we build start from one of these four situations. Recognizing yours is usually the first step toward a real design.

### Overgrown or Outdated

A yard that has drifted past tidy maintenance and needs a real overhaul: design, hardscape, and planting in one coordinated build.

### Thirsty Lawn, High Bills

Water-intensive grass that costs more every drought year. Hydrozoned drought-tolerant design with rebate-qualified palettes pays itself back.

### Sloped or Hillside Lot

A grade that demands real engineering: terracing, retaining walls, drainage. Most firms send hillside work out. We build it.

### Permit-Heavy Project

Hardscape over the impermeable threshold, retaining walls over four feet, driveway widening. Pasadena B&S and LADBS familiarity built in.

How It Works

## From Consultation to Warranty

Four stages built around clear deliverables and predictable communication, from site walk to written warranty.

01

### On-Site Consultation

We walk the property, listen to how you want to use the yard, and outline a phased budget tier.

02

### Design & Permit

Master plan, planting palette, hardscape detail, and engineered drawings as needed. We handle the permit submittal.

03

### Build

In-house crews with a dedicated PM. Daily cleanups, scheduled updates, and remote progress photos for traveling clients.

04

### Warranty & Care

Punch-list walk, written workmanship warranty, and a maintenance plan so the design matures as drawn.

★ ★ ★ ★ ★

> "We replaced our front lawn with a California native landscape and Belgard paver walkway. The team explained the rebate process, helped us file, and the install was clean. Five stars."

Local Expertise

## Landscape Contractors Across Greater Los Angeles

Greater Los Angeles spans a wide range of lot types and architectural styles. The Spanish and Craftsman homes of **Hancock Park** and **Los Feliz** call for period-appropriate heritage hardscape. **Silver Lake** favors modern, architectural drought-tolerant design. The Westside estates of **Brentwood** run at estate scale with premium material specifications.

**LADBS** permitting is the regulatory framework for all Los Angeles work, and our team handles hardscape, retaining wall, structural, and driveway permit submittals in-house. We access the city via the I-405, I-5, and US-101, and our project managers know the permit process across the city's varied districts.

LA's drought-tolerant rebate programs, administered through **LADWP** and **MWD**, apply across the city. We design to qualifying plant lists and square-footage thresholds and handle the application documentation as part of the project scope.
