Our Specialized Landscaping Services
Certified Arborist-Led Landscaping
Our work is guided by a Certified Arborist on staff, helping you make smarter decisions about placement, growth, safety, and long-term results. When trees are part of the landscape plan, structure and spacing matter just as much as appearance.
Mature Tree Installation & Nursery
We offer a large tree nursery with fully matured trees ranging from 10 to 18 feet above ground. These trees provide an immediate transformation to your property, creating instant shade and visual appeal. Our team ensures proper planting techniques, including soil preparation and depth, to give your trees the best possible start.
Large Tree Transplanting
For trees that need to be relocated, we use the largest tree spade in the Central Valley to safely move mature trees. This service allows you to preserve valuable trees by relocating them to a better spot on your property or temporarily moving them during construction projects, ensuring they remain healthy and intact.
Comprehensive Landscape Assessment and Planning
Landscaping starts with a plan and a clean foundation. We support long-term outdoor improvement by helping property owners prepare the site and make confident decisions about what stays, what moves, and what needs to be cleared.
Tailored Solutions for Long-Term Beauty
Our approach combines the science of arboriculture with thoughtful landscape planning to create outdoor spaces that are both functional and visually stunning. By focusing on the unique needs of your property, we ensure that your landscape remains vibrant, safe, and enjoyable for years to come.
Our Streamlined Landscaping Process
Initial Consultation
We begin with a visit to your site to discuss your vision and goals for your outdoor space. Our team will assess your current landscape, noting existing features and potential opportunities to bring your ideas to life.
Customized Planning
Based on the assessment, we develop a tailored plan for your landscape goals. This may include recommendations for mature tree placement, strategies for relocating or preserving existing trees, and guidance on improving structure, spacing, and shade coverage. The goal is a property that looks better, functions better, and stays easier to manage over time.
Site Preparation
Before any installation or planting begins, we prepare your site with care. This can involve clearing debris, grading the land, and ensuring proper soil conditions, creating a strong foundation for every element of your landscape design.
Professional Execution
Our skilled crews arrive with specialized equipment ready to complete all aspects of your project safely and efficiently. Whether it's planting mature trees, clearing overgrowth, or preparing the site for the next phase of improvement, we prioritize quality craftsmanship and attention to detail.
Ongoing Maintenance
To ensure your landscape remains healthy and lush, we offer ongoing support through deep-root fertilization, pest and disease management, and regular pruning. This ongoing care protects your investment and supports long-term beauty year after year.
Transform Your Landscape Every Season with Expert Care
Our seasonal services are designed with a deep understanding of the local climate and plant biology, providing proactive care that keeps your landscape beautiful, functional, and ready for whatever nature brings next.
