Landscaping in Pomona
For landscaping in Pomona, from Lincoln Park and Ganesha Hills to the Arts Colony downtown, we match the plants to the sun each part of your lot gets. Call (310) 857-2520 for a free yard visit.
Book online and we'll call you back the same business day.
If you have a plant in a pot that you moved around the yard until it stopped wilting, you have already tested your lot. The spot where it ended up has the sun that plant can live with. The spots it left have too much or too little.
Tell us about that pot when you call. It tells us a good deal about your yard before we have seen it.
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.
Where the sun lands on your kind of Pomona lot
- The front of a Victorian or Craftsman house in Lincoln Park. If your porch faces the afternoon sun, the porch is shaded and the bed below it is not. We plant that bed for full sun, and the rest of the front follows from there.
- The back of a house with a detached garage. The garage shades some of the backyard for part of the day. If you tell us whether that is in the morning or after lunch, we know which end of the yard is the cooler one.
- A tract house on the flats. If your lot is level and open, little shades the backyard except the house. We start there by asking how many hours the house's shadow covers the lawn.
- A lot in Ganesha Hills with a change in level. If your yard has a bank, low planter walls turn it into beds you can reach, and we build retaining walls and terraces for taller drops.
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 pot wilted, and where it did well
Nothing lasts by the front steps, however much you water
If the front of your house takes the afternoon sun, the ground by the steps is some of the hottest you have. We pick plants for the heat your part of LA gets.
Planting that asks for less water than a lawn suits that spot. You can see how a front looks with it on the page about front yard and parkway planting.
The same plant is happy on the back step
If a pot does well there, the spot probably has sun in the morning and shade later. Morning sun is the easier kind for a plant to take.
That is where we'd put the plants that burn out front, and where artificial turf is comfortable underfoot. Turf heats up on summer afternoons, so we'll tell you which spots catch that sun.
The days we are working at your house
We confirm the start date in writing. From that day on, the work runs in this order.
- We take out the old lawn and whatever else is going, and haul it away.
- We build what is made of stone: planter walls, then the walks and the patio.
- We put in the drip and move the sprinkler heads that are in the wrong place.
- We set the plants in the beds and lay any turf you chose.
- You walk the finished lot with your crew lead and point out whatever you want looked at again.
If you'd like to know what comes before the start date, it is in what happens after you call.
If the trouble is the sprinklers and not the sun
- The sidewalk is wet and the lawn is dry. If you see that after the sprinklers run, a head is aimed wrong or has sunk. That is a repair.
- One corner stays dry. If a corner of your lawn never greens up, a head may not be reaching it. We look at that before we blame the sun.
- The yard is one somebody else built. We repair sprinklers on yards we didn't build as well as on our own.
- You are having some of the yard rebuilt. Drip or sprinkler changes come with any build that needs them.
- You'd like the yard looked after once it is done. After handover we can stay on to prune, weed, top up the mulch and check the drip each season. It is for yards we built, and we don't run a weekly mow-and-blow route.
Before you book, if you rent out a building or only want the front done
Can the front yard be the whole job?
Yes. Each part of the yard has its own price, so the front can be all you say yes to. If the parkway is bare too, ask us to price it with the front.
Our building near Towne Avenue has a locked gate. How do you get in for the visit?
Tell us when you book who has the key and what time suits them. If you are a tenant, the owner is the one who books the visit.
Is a planter wall priced as a wall or with the planting?
If your bed needs a low wall to hold it, the wall is priced with that bed. Curves cost more than straight runs, so say which you have in mind.
Call (310) 857-2520 and tell us where the pot ended up, or ask for the free yard visit on the form. Book online and we'll call you back the same business day.
We work in West Covina as well.
