Frequently Asked Questions

Not finding what you're looking for?

Q: Should I hire a landscaper or a Design & Build contractor for my front yard?
If you only need basic planting, a landscaper works. But if your project involves structural changes, driveway replacement, or concrete work, you need a Design and Build firm. We handle the city permits, heavy-duty driveways, and engineered walls with one team.
We start with an on-site consultation to measure and discuss your goals. Once we move forward together, we create a full 3D rendering of your new front yard so you can see exactly how the curb appeal, driveway, and hardscaping will look before any construction begins.
It depends on the square footage and materials. Comprehensive driveway and hardscape overhauls generally range from $20,000 to $75,000 and above. You will receive a clear, exact price during your free on-site consultation.
Yes. Driveway and hardscape versus landscaping is a natural phase split for front yards. We can design the entire master plan upfront, allowing you to complete the structural concrete and paver work now, and return for the planting and lighting in a later phase.
While poured concrete is great, interlocking pavers are the premium choice for high-end curb appeal. Pavers flex with San Diego’s shifting soil, meaning they will not crack over time the way standard concrete slabs eventually do.
Front yard changes are heavily monitored by HOAs. We specialize in HOA-approved yard remodeling. We provide the exact 3D renderings and material specs your review board requires so you do not have to stress over the paperwork.
Yes. Large structural projects like retaining walls, major grading, or extending a driveway into the right-of-way require a city permit. We handle the entire permitting process in-house to ensure your property is built safely.
Potentially, yes. Front yards are the most common trigger for the Model Water Efficient Landscape Ordinance (MWELO). If your remodel includes new irrigated landscaping above a certain size, it requires a water budget calculation. We are familiar with these requirements and build them into compliant designs when they apply.
Yes. High water bills make natural lawns expensive to maintain. We frequently replace dying grass with premium artificial turf and drought-tolerant landscaping that looks perfect year-round and reduces ongoing maintenance significantly.
We engineer and build heavy-duty structural retaining walls that lock your slope in place and stop soil erosion. This protects your home’s foundation and instantly upgrades your curb appeal.
Yes. Our crew handles all heavy demolition and haul-away. We completely clear out your cracked driveway, failing walls, and overgrown landscaping before the new build phase ever begins.
Timelines depend on the scope of the concrete or paver work and city permit approvals. During your consultation, we give you a clear, predictable timeline, and we provide weekly updates once construction starts.
Yes. We partner with top lenders to offer flexible financing options, including $0 down plans. You can elevate your curb appeal immediately without draining your savings.
Yes. Our dedicated crews are overseen personally by the owners of the business. You will have a consistent point of contact throughout the build to answer questions and ensure the highest quality craftsmanship.
During your free consultation, our experts evaluate your curb appeal, take measurements, and discuss your goals. We walk you through material options like architectural concrete and answer all your questions. There is absolutely no obligation to move forward.
We serve all of San Diego County. Our crews work throughout North County (Carlsbad, Encinitas, San Marcos, Escondido, Poway, Rancho Bernardo), coastal areas (La Jolla, Del Mar, Pacific Beach), central San Diego, East County (La Mesa, El Cajon, Santee), and South County (Chula Vista, Bonita). If you are in San Diego County, we can help.
We provide a workmanship warranty on all labor and many material manufacturers offer their own product warranties on top of that. Warranty terms are covered during your consultation. We stand behind our work and are available to address any post-installation concerns.
Simply contact us to schedule your free consultation. We will assess your front yard space, listen to your goals, and provide a clear, honest estimate.
