Patios and driveways

An outdoor room starts with the ground under it. We build paver patios and paver driveways, flagstone and boulder patios, curved patios with seat walls and fire pits, and pergolas to sit under.

We are glad to work alongside you: on one project the homeowner helped us install 24 inch pavers. Where your old materials are sound, ask about reusing them.

“Brian kept me informed of the timing and consulted with me on the ideas for the new landscaping plan. He was able to reuse most of my pavers and planter boxes, so they did not end up in the landfill. He shared my values about water conservation. The result is stunning and makes for a really enjoyable outdoor extension of my home.”

Xeriscapes

Xeriscape is a style of landscaping that minimizes water use, eliminates herbicides and fertilizer, and works with the local climate. It can include drought tolerant plants, rocks, pavers, patios, pathways or mulch.

As of 2025 we’ve removed 250,000 pounds of lawn. Read the questions people ask us about xeriscapes.

Fences and buildings

Custom milled cedar fences, redwood fences with wire panels, a redwood pergola, a grapevine pergola, and outbuildings: a shed, a cottage or a studio. You may spot our project plaque on a post.

Raised garden beds

We love building garden beds to help you grow your own delicious and healthy food. Redwood beds finished with food grade linseed oil, fenced front yard gardens with an arbor at the gate, and planters that turn an alley into a vegetable garden.

Jen studied botany and loves selecting native and pollinator-attracting plants that bring color and interest through the seasons.

And so much more

An outdoor shower with hot water, a bocce ball court, a redwood swing with a tile inlay, a new setting for a bench in Caldwell Park, and steel edging we weld together. We are experienced with laying sod or helping you keep existing grass healthy, too.
