Landscaping in Venice

We fit landscaping in Venice to small lots, in the Venice Canals, the Silver Triangle and Milwood, with planting picked for the sun each fence gets. Call (310) 857-2520, or book the free yard visit online.

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

Look along your fences in the middle of the day. One has a band of shade at its foot, and the fence across the yard has none, with the sun full on it.

On a small Venice lot those two bands can be most of the planting space you have. If you tell us which fence is which, we choose plants for each band before we come.

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.

A small Venice lot with the garage on the alley

  • The front of a beach bungalow. If your front yard is a small lawn, planting with a paver walk to the door uses the space better. We choose each bed for the sun it gets.
  • The backyard and the way into it. Materials come in from the alley, through the garage or a back gate. If the way through is narrow, show us at the visit, since that is how pavers and plants reach your yard.
  • A yard beside a taller house. If the house next to you is taller than yours, its shadow covers some of your yard for half the day. We landscape that ground for shade and keep the patio for where the sun still lands.

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.

Along the fences of a small yard

Nothing lasts along the fence that gets the sun

If that bed has the sun on it for most of the day, the plants in it need to be ones that like sun and salt air. We replant it with those and run drip irrigation to each one.

The lawn is only a few steps across

If yours is that small, it may be more mowing than it is worth. A narrow bed of shade plants along the darker fence and artificial turf on the rest is one way to use it, and planting the whole patch is the other, with both priced for you.

From the alley to the finished yard

  1. On the start date we gave you in writing, materials arrive at the alley.
  2. They come through the garage or the back gate, the way you showed us at the visit.
  3. Whatever is being replaced goes out through the alley.
  4. Walks, a patio and any planter walls are built next.
  5. Drip goes in to each new bed.
  6. Plants and turf go in, with the sunny fence and the shaded one each getting their own.
  7. Your crew lead walks the finished yard with you.

If the alley behind you is tight, or your garage is a tandem one with one car parked behind the other, mention it when you book.

Call (310) 857-2520 about the landscaping you want. If you book the free yard visit online instead, add which way your back fence faces.

We also work nearby in Santa Monica and Culver City.
