Built to Last in Florin, CA
Hardscaping is the backbone of great landscape design.

The Hardscaping Process
Every hardscape project starts with proper planning. We'll assess your property's grade, drainage patterns, and soil conditions. Then we'll design features that complement your existing landscape while solving practical problems like poor drainage or unusable slopes.
Installation begins with excavation and base preparation. This is the most critical step. A properly prepared base prevents settling, cracking, and drainage issues down the road. We take the time to do it right, compacting layers of gravel and sand to create a stable foundation.
Many clients combine hardscaping with other services like landscape design to create complete outdoor rooms, or add landscape lighting to showcase their new features at night.
More Than Just Good Looks
Well-designed hardscaping solves real problems. Retaining walls stop erosion and create usable flat areas on sloped properties. Proper walkways prevent worn paths through your lawn. Patios expand your living space and create defined areas for outdoor furniture. And strategic drainage features protect your foundation and keep water flowing where it should.
