Landscape design in Calabasas
We do landscape design in Calabasas for the whole lot, from the curb to the slope out back, in Old Town, Calabasas Highlands and out toward Monte Nido. When you call (310) 857-2520, tell us where the sun hits.
Book online and we'll call you back the same business day.
If the hill rises to the west of your house, your backyard goes into shade well before sunset, while a neighbor across the street may have sun until the last light, and the two lots need different planting.
We start by looking at where the sun falls on each part of your lot. The plan covers all of it, and we price the plan at the yard visit, before any building is priced.
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.
From the curb to the hillside on a Calabasas lot
- A house in a gated tract off Parkway Calabasas or Park Granada. The front is mostly driveway, so the patch of lawn beside it and the parkway are what the street sees. The back is the part you use, and which way it faces decides what goes there.
- An older house or cabin in Calabasas Highlands. If your lot runs up or down a hill, terraces make it level ground you can plant or stand on, and the steps between them are part of the same job.
- A large custom home. If your drive is long, planting and landscape lighting along it are priced on their own, apart from the back.
- A condo or townhome. We price the patio and the ground by the door like any other part of a lot. If your building has a manager, tell us who books the visit.
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.

Where the afternoon lands on a lot in the hills
The slope out back faces west and bakes all afternoon
A hillside that faces west takes the whole afternoon, and summers here are hot. If yours is bare, planting chosen for that heat holds the hill better than grass, and terraces give the plants level ground to sit in.
We pick plants for the heat your part of LA gets, and on a west slope that means plants that can take the full afternoon.
The patio is too hot to use until the sun drops behind the hill
If your patio is in the open, a pergola or a patio cover over the table changes the hours you can use it, and either one gets its own price. Planting along the west edge cuts the glare off the pavers.
Turf heats up on summer afternoons, so we'll tell you which spots catch that sun.
The only lawn you have is the patch beside the garage
A small lawn in full sun next to a wide driveway is hard to keep green. If yours keeps browning in that sun, planting picked for the heat finishes the front without a lawn, and the parkway can match.
Turf fits there too, and you see both prices.
How each part of a Calabasas lot is priced
- How much hill the terraces hold. Taller terraces on a steeper slope cost more, and so does carrying everything up from the drive.
- What comes out of the front. If the old lawn has to come up, that is in the price, and a curved walk with borders takes longer to lay than a straight one.
- The stone you pick for the patio. The paver or flagstone you choose, and how big the patio is, move the price of the back.
- How the materials get in. A gate or a long drive adds to the carry. The price comes from the parts you want done and what's in them now, and we measure both at the visit.
The extra pieces, each with its own price
- Something to sit under. We build a pergola or a patio cover over the side of the patio that gets the afternoon.
- An outdoor kitchen. Running gas, water and power to it is our job, and so is wiring the lights.
- Lights on the terrace steps. Lighting down the steps lets you use the terraces after dark.
- A patch of real grass. If you want one, we lay sod there.
- Sprinklers that already need work. We repair them on yards we didn't build, not only on ours.
Call (310) 857-2520, or book the free yard visit online and say which way the back of the house faces. The page on landscape design for a whole yard shows what the plan covers, and the one on retaining walls and terraces covers the slope.
We also work in Woodland Hills and Thousand Oaks.
