Average rating: 5 out of 5 starsFebruary 23, 2013
“JPM came in and rescued our backyard. Understood our budget limitations and what we wanted and created a backyard paradise that incorporated existing items while adding some new features. Extremely responsive and exceeded all of our expectations while remaining on/under budget. Would endorse Joe and his team in a heartbeat!”
BNO Builders
Landscapers & Landscaping Companies in San Mateo
Average rating: 5 out of 5 starsDecember 3, 2024
“We've worked with Ben (Sensitive Information Hidden) before on a complex retaining wall project. Since then, he's launched his own company and we recently completed another piece of work with them. It involved rerouting pipes to the street and as per city permits we needed to cut open a large portion of the sidewalk and pour concrete and asphalt to finish it. BNO builders worked in a timely manner, worked clean and were thoughtful in making decisions on how the pavers would be finished. They were all very pleasant to work with and we are very happy with the results. We highly recommend BNO builders and Ben and his team. Will definitely be using them again.”

Hiring a San Mateo Landscape Contractor


Professional San Mateo landscaping companies create and maintain beautiful yards that complement homes and blend into native settings. From soil, grasses and plants to decks, walkways and patios, landscape contractors are experts in creating functional and visually pleasing outdoor living spaces.

Landscaping contractors execute lawn, garden and hardscaping plans, either working from architect designs or providing their own design services. They maintain plantings, manage weeds and pests, and perform ongoing maintenance. Licensed San Mateo landscapers understand local weather patterns and climate conditions, choosing plants and materials suited to the area. They also handle construction permits, hire subcontractors when needed, and ensure designs comply with local building codes.


Key questions when hiring a landscaper:


  • How long have you been in business and can you provide recent references?
  • Are you and your workers licensed, insured, and employees or subcontractors?
  • What sustainable practices and water conservation methods do you use?
  • What is your warranty on plants, materials, and workmanship?
  • How do you structure payments and handle changes to the budget?
  • What is the project timeline and how do you handle weather delays?
  • What seasonal maintenance plans do you offer?
  • Do you install and service smart irrigation systems?
  • How do you select plants for our local climate and long-term sustainability?
  • What ongoing maintenance packages are available and what do they include?
