Featured Reviews for Hardscaping Contractors in Santa Venetia

InsideOut Design, Inc.
Hardscaping Contractors in Santa Venetia
Average rating: 5 out of 5 starsAugust 22, 2013
“My husband and I hired Inside Out Design to come up with designs for the back yard of our new home. After interviewing us for our preferences, Penn delivered five very interesting designs which required little maintenance on our part. The yard is now seven years old and we're thrilled with it. He was very prompt, knowledge and creative. We highly recommend him.”

“Rafat was a pleasure to work with and is not only very knowledgeable but has wonderful taste in design. We are delighted with our garden.”
Mariposa Gardening & Design Cooperative, Inc.
Hardscaping Contractors in Santa Venetia
Average rating: 5 out of 5 starsSeptember 21, 2012
“My garden had good bones but the plants were all wrong. I wanted a garden that looked natural but well-kept, a tough aesthetic to pull off. I wanted lots of birds and butterflies. Mariposa Gardening has taken care of my garden for a few years now. The principal, Andrea Hurd, started by editing the original sorry collection of misplaced plants, replacing the losers with absolute winners. I now have a beautiful variety of textures, colors, shapes and sizes. Something is in bloom in all seasons. We are overrun with birds and, in season, with butterflies. Her maintenance crews have done a great job of keeping her work looking good. The trees are elegantly pruned; each one displays that gold standard "looks like it grew that way" look. Any special request that I make is quickly taken care of. Sometimes I get treats, in the form of new flowers or vegetable starts (I love foraging in my own back yard). In short I am completely happy with Mariposa Gardening and Design.”

Land Studio C
Hardscaping Contractors in Santa Venetia
Average rating: 5 out of 5 starsJuly 17, 2014
“After moving into a new (for us) house, we hired Darren to come up with a Master Plan for our landscaping which would be compatible with our house renovation plans. He was precise and methodical in his approach and after several discussions and plan iterations we had a Master Plan we will be able to use going forward. We knew we couldn't do everything at once, so it's nice to have guidelines for what we can do now and know they will fit in as projects are completed.”
Kristen Rudger Landscape Design
Hardscaping Contractors in Santa Venetia
Average rating: 5 out of 5 starsFebruary 12, 2013
“Kristen designed a beautiful makeover for our yard - front, back and sides. She asked lots of questions before designing anything - what we wanted (pavers, pretty flowers), what we didn't want (water feature, yellow flowers) and in general, how we wanted to use our yard. She came up with lovely, detailed plans for a traditional looking garden (with our traditional looking house) - that were revised slightly with discussion, then found a couple of contractors to bid on the work. She supervised the work of the one we chose, making sure they followed the plans. She recommended a new gardner - good choice. About a year later she replaced the few plants that hadn't made it (for no charge), and now almost two years later the place is absolutely beautiful! I can't tell you how many complements we have received ever since the job was originally completed - and they continue to this day!”
Alderland - SF Bay Area Pool & Landscape Co.
Hardscaping Contractors in Santa Venetia
Average rating: 5 out of 5 starsAugust 29, 2011
“I just completed a remodel of my pool and landscaping with the Alder Group, and simply stated I could not be happier. From the first meeting until the project was completed, Don always looked for ways to improve the project and at the same time ways to minimize the cost of the project. His keen eye for design saw needed simple improvements that were relatively inexpensive but had a massive effect on the overall beauty of the project. Perhaps most importantly when the manufacturer delivered the wrong custom coping, and I worried that we would not be able to meet the deadline of a large party that was planned for my backyard; Don found a way to resolve the issue and keep the job on schedule. Don is truly one of the good guys.”

“Bonnie designed my backyard landscaping and it turned out better than I could have imagined. She designed a beautiful paver patio surrounded with a lush garden of plants. She is committed to low water, low maintenance, and organic gardening.”
Gary Marsh Design
Hardscaping Contractors in Santa Venetia
Average rating: 5 out of 5 starsJanuary 20, 2015
“Gary was exceptional in all facets of our deck project. As designer, Gary worked with our ideas and constraints, but then applied creativity and style to design a deck that is very functional and extremely beautiful - wonderful flow, beautiful lines that are unique but not distracting. Gary also acted as contractor on our project, a rare and invaluable combination having the designer actually build the structure. Gary was a great communicator throughout the project and always helped us find the right blend between "fix it" and "move on - you can't pull the string on every inherited problem." It was a joy to watch the project and see the highest quality craftsmanship from foundation and structure to finishing touches. We couldn't be happier. We loved working with Gary and love our new deck!”

Landscape Architect or Designer FAQs
The duration of a hardscaping project can vary widely depending on the projectʼs complexity, size, material availability, and weather conditions. Smaller projects like a simple patio can take a few days to a week, while larger projects like a complete outdoor kitchen or extensive retaining walls can take several weeks to months. An experienced contractor will provide a realistic timeline upfront, factoring in planning, design approvals, and potential unforeseen delays.
Your hardscaping contractor is a valuable resource in selecting materials that are durable, suitable for your climate, and aesthetically pleasing, ensuring that the design complements your homeʼs exterior and landscape. They can inform you about the latest trends, such as sustainable and eco-friendly materials, or timeless designs that maintain their appeal. However, trends should be balanced with personal preference and long-term practicality.
Homeowners should clarify their budget, design preferences, and functionality needs. Researching and having inspirational images or a vision board can help communicate your ideas to the contractor effectively. Itʼs also crucial to clear the project area of personal items and, if necessary, secure permits or ensure the contractor handles permit acquisition. Discussing logistics like project access, noise, and dust management upfront can prevent misunderstandings.
Effective communication between homeowners and contractors is key to addressing challenges. Setting clear expectations, having a detailed contract, and establishing regular updates can mitigate issues. Challenges such as weather delays, unexpected ground conditions, or material shortages require flexibility and understanding from both parties. An experienced contractor will manage these challenges professionally, keeping the project on track as much as possible.
When meeting with a potential contractor, inquire about their experience with projects similar to yours, their process from design to completion, timeline and budget estimation, and how they handle unexpected challenges. Itʼs also important to ask for references, certification, insurance details, and how communication will be handled throughout the project. This ensures transparency and sets the foundation for a successful partnership.
Yes, many contractors now offer eco-friendly hardscaping options, such as permeable paving, recycled materials, and locally sourced stones, which reduce environmental impact and can improve your homeʼs sustainability. Discussing these options with your contractor can reveal opportunities to incorporate green practices into your project, from reducing runoff with permeable surfaces to selecting materials that require less energy to produce and transport.
