Landscaping in Beverly Hills

For landscaping in Beverly Hills, in Trousdale Estates, around the Golden Triangle and on the streets south of Wilshire Boulevard, one free yard visit prices the whole lot. Call (310) 857-2520 and tell us what the sun does to your yard.

Book online and we'll call you back the same business day.

If the slope behind your house is bare dirt and the flat part is too hot to sit in after lunch, the afternoon sun is the cause of both, so we plan the slope and the flat ground together.

If your yard is on level ground, we still start with which part of it gets the afternoon sun.

What one free yard visit gets you

  • A free yard visit within 3 business days. Paver and turf samples come with us.
  • One quote with a price for each part of the yard. It reaches you by email within 1 business day of the visit.
  • Turf and planting priced side by side. Where either could go, your quote names the one we would put there.
  • One crew lead, with a direct number. Whoever walks the lot with you at the visit runs the build and the final walkthrough.
  • What we build is covered for 1 year. What we plant is covered for 12 weeks, with a check visit in that time.

Hot spots on a Beverly Hills lot

The hill behind the house is bare and in sun all afternoon

A slope facing west takes the full afternoon, and anything thirsty planted on it gives up by July. If yours is steep, terraces turn it into level ground you can plant or stand on, and we price the plan at the yard visit, before any building is priced.

On the terraces we would put planting chosen for that sun, watered by drip.

The patio by the house is too bright to sit on after lunch

If your patio sits in the open with no shade, a pergola or a patio cover over the part you sit in changes the afternoon more than any new surface does, and it gets its own price. Planting along the sunny edge takes the glare off the stone.

Turf heats up on summer afternoons, so we'll tell you which spots catch that sun. If you want turf near the patio, the shaded side is the place for it.

The parkway gets more sun than anything else out front

If your front yard is small, the parkway between the sidewalk and the curb may be most of what the street sees. With nothing to shade it, it wants plants that take the heat, and doing it with the front finishes both at once.

The parkway gets its own price, so you can see what it adds.

One crew lead runs your whole job.

Whoever walks the lot with you at the free visit runs the build and the final walkthrough, and you get their direct number that day. A question about the slope or the side gate goes to the person who measured it.

Beverly Hills lots, from Trousdale down to Wilshire

  • A hillside lot in Trousdale Estates. Your lot has the flat ground by the house, the slope above or below it, and the drive down from the gate. If the slope faces west, it needs the toughest planting of the three.
  • A house near the Golden Triangle. If the house shades your back garden in the morning, the back faces west and takes the full afternoon, so planting for heat and a covered patio suit it better than turf.
  • A smaller house or a condo south of Wilshire. If the building or the house next door shades your patio most of the day, shade planting suits it. We price each part, and a small lot gets a short visit.

What moves the price on each part of the lot

  • The terraces on the slope. The taller they are and the more hill they hold back, the more they cost, and an old wall that has to come out first adds to it.
  • The lawn out front. Its size and what has to come out of it set that part's price. A curved walk with borders takes longer to lay than a straight one.
  • The patio out back. The paver or flagstone you pick and the size of the patio move its price. If your yard sits below the street, everything comes down on a cart, and that is in the price.
  • Getting materials to the yard. A gate, a long drive or steps up from the street all add time. The price comes from the parts you want done and what's in them now, and we measure both at the visit.

The rest of the lot, on the same quote

  • A pergola or a patio cover. We build one over the hot part of the patio, with its own price.
  • An outdoor kitchen. Gas, water and power to the kitchen are ours to run as part of the job, and so is the wiring for the lights.
  • Landscape lighting. We set lights along the drive, on the steps down the slope and under the terraces, and they are priced on their own.
  • Sod. If you want real grass somewhere, we lay sod, with its own price.
  • Sprinklers. We also repair sprinklers, including on yards we didn't build.

The order the build days run in

  1. We confirm the start date in writing.
  2. Whatever is coming out of the slope, the front or the back goes first.
  3. Terraces and walls go in before anything else, from the bottom of the slope up.
  4. Patios, walks and the pergola posts go in next.
  5. Drip, lighting wire and sprinkler changes go in before the ground is covered.
  6. Planting, turf and sod go in last, and your crew lead goes over the finished lot with you.
