LANDSCAPE DESIGN & BUILD SERVICES, BUILT TO LAST
Every successful project starts with a clear plan. We walk the space, discuss your goals, and develop a design that fits your lifestyle, property, and budget. From there, we refine the details and handle the construction from start to finish with a focus on quality craftsmanship, clear communication, and a clean finished result.

Unlike companies that hand you off between a salesperson, a designer, and a crew, you work directly with owner and designer Louis Siegel from the first meeting to the final walkthrough.
Landscape Design & Build
Custom outdoor designs that blend beauty, function, and sustainability. We start with a site visit, then create a 2D plan or a full 3D design of your actual home so you can see materials, layout, planting, and lighting before anything is built. Because the same team designs and builds your project, nothing gets lost between the drawing and the finished yard.
Learn more →Retaining Walls
Hillside and sloped lots are common across the East Bay, and a well-built wall turns unusable slopes into level, usable yard. About 90% of the walls we build are natural moss rock: it looks like part of the landscape, drains naturally through the stones, and lasts for decades. We also build seat walls, terraced planting beds, and steps.
Learn more →Drought-Tolerant Design
Water-wise landscapes that thrive in the East Bay climate while cutting water use and maintenance. We combine California natives and drought-tolerant plants with decorative rock, bark mulch, and drip irrigation for yards that look full and colorful year-round.
Learn more →Hardscape & Masonry
Patios, walkways, steps, and seat walls in pavers, natural stone, flagstone, and concrete. Every hardscape project starts with proper excavation, a compacted base, and drainage, because what's underneath is what makes it last.
Learn more →Decking, Fencing & Outdoor Structures
Custom decks, pergolas, patio covers, fences, and gates built to add shade, privacy, and usable space to your yard.
Learn more →Outdoor Living Spaces
Patios, fire pits, seating areas, and gathering spaces designed for how you actually use your yard: family dinners, entertaining, or a quiet evening outside.
Learn more →BBQ Islands & Outdoor Kitchens
Custom-built BBQ islands and outdoor kitchens designed around how you cook and entertain, with counter space, seating, and finishes that match your patio and home.
Learn more →Synthetic Turf & Putting Greens
Low-maintenance lawns, play areas, pet areas, and custom putting greens that stay green year-round with no mowing or watering. Installed over a properly graded, compacted, well-draining base.
Learn more →Outdoor Lighting
Low-voltage LED landscape lighting for paths, steps, trees, and architecture. Lighting adds curb appeal and safety, and gets more use out of your yard after dark. Our 3D designs can show your lighting plan at night before it's installed.
Learn more →Water Features
Custom fountains, ponds, and water elements that bring sound, movement, and a peaceful feel to your landscape.
Learn more →Drainage & Irrigation
Drainage solutions that move water away from your home and hardscape, and irrigation systems designed around your yard's sun, shade, soil, and plants. We install efficient drip systems and smart controllers that save water and keep plants healthy.

Two bids can look the same on paper and be built very differently. Here's a quick look at what goes underneath our work.
