Alderland - SF Bay Area Pool & Landscape Co.
Hardscaping Contractors in Tamalpais-Homestead Valley
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.”

“Neli, Stan, Todd, and others at Interactive Landscapes are fantastic. Interactive completely remodeled our front and back yards, installed a large Batu (wood) deck, a hot tub, a BBQ island with built-in plumbing and gas, artificial grass field, concrete and tiles, and beautiful landscaping/plants, automated drip and spray irrigation, and automated and manual LED lighting. They had great and tasteful ideas provided 3D, color/textured computer drawings to help us visualize the design. They suggested strategies to save money on the design. They led and personally worked on every detail. They instantly respond to questions verbally, in text, or email. We have put a lot of work on our house and hired more than 15 contractors for a large amount of work inside and outside. Interactive Landscapes is by far the best contractor with which i have ever worked. Their prices are highly competitive and their quality is just top notch.--the best i have seen. I cannot say enough. They can do it all.”

Kristen Rudger Landscape Design
Hardscaping Contractors in Tamalpais-Homestead Valley
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!”
G Landscape Division
Hardscaping Contractors in Tamalpais-Homestead Valley
Average rating: 5 out of 5 starsSeptember 20, 2023
“We hired G Family because we wanted to have a local company competent in both design & build to make our backyard a place for our kids to play, for us to garden, and host friends. What we got was an enjoyable process with phenomenal people who have become like family to create an oasis of play, joy, and peace. Dave transformed many dilapidated terraces into a coveted flat yard space, with a patio for entertainment or yoga and a hot tub/outdoor shower sanctuary. Zach is an absolute dream to work with, plus a plant genius. He worked with us to design the most stunning zones of colorful life that perfectly blend zen and pollinator gardens, fruit trees, open play areas, and vegetable beds with stunning rock walls (in a small footprint)! The G family’s execution of our vision gave us the most invaluable gift. We spend every day in our yard, and it has become not just a place to enjoy the view and company but where we come to decompress and bond as a family. Thank you so much, G Family! We can’t recommend you highly enough.”

Patrick Lannan Designs
Hardscaping Contractors in Tamalpais-Homestead Valley
Average rating: 5 out of 5 starsFebruary 24, 2016
“As many of you know Northern California is having its worst drought in pretty much ever. So in helping to conserve water, my hubby and I decided to remove our lawn while using the city of Napa's cash for grass incentive. The incentive pays you back $1 for each square foot of lawn you remove. I'd recommend looking into this in your own city to see whats available. With the lawn coming out we decided to take the opportunity to make some drastic changes to the exterior of our home including painting, lighting, new front door and of course landscaping. While choosing paint colors and fixtures is easy for me, designing a landscape is not. So I reached out to my FB friends and received a recommendation for Patrick Lannan Designs. After seeing his portfolio we were thrilled at the chance to work with someone so talented. Let me just say, from design to installation Patrick was a dream to work with. Not only is he a professional but he's also an excellent communicator and project coordinator. He and his team got the plantings in but also irrigation and lighting systems installed in the course of a weekend (take a look at the night time photos). One of the fun things of the process was walking through Flora Grubb with Patrick as our guide. This place is super cool! He showed us amazing plants and succulents that would work great in Napa. It's a lot warmer in Napa so it was important that the selections matched our climate. As you can see from the photos our project turned out to be pretty amazing. Patricks keen eye for color, shape and detail helped to take our boring beige house and turn into the jewel of the neighborhood. If you're not sure what to do with your landscaping I'd highly recommend reaching out to Patrick.”
SW Design
Hardscaping Contractors in Tamalpais-Homestead Valley
Average rating: 5 out of 5 starsMarch 10, 2014
“Following the recommendation of a friend, I hired Stephanie Wondolleck and her design firm, SW Design, for a much-needed and long-delayed landscaping project for the front of our home in Marin County, California. Stephanie was very good at figuring out what we would like (given our tastes and cost constraints), even though we were not very sure what we wanted. She did everything she said she would do, including using only deer-resistant plants and bringing the project in on budget and on-time. Meeting the deadlines required careful coordination of various contractors, at which she was very adept. Stephanie is professional, creative, thoughtful--and a pleasure to work with. We would (will) happily and confidently hire her and SW Design again.”

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.
