Landscaping That Transforms How You Experience Your Property
Landscaping is far more than planting a few shrubs and laying sod. A thoughtfully designed landscape changes how you experience your home every single day – it creates functional outdoor rooms, improves curb appeal, reduces long-term maintenance, and adds real, measurable value to your property.
At Stones Landscaping Inc., we take a design-build approach to every landscaping project. That means we handle the entire process in-house: site evaluation, design concepts, material selection, irrigation planning, grading, drainage, and full installation. Every landscaping project we complete includes a 90-day warranty on plants and materials.
Every Property, Every Scale
We’ve designed and built landscapes for properties across the Bay Area spectrum – from San Jose homes where a front yard renovation transforms the entire street presence, to grand estates in Atherton and Hillsborough where the landscape needs to complement world-class architecture. The scope varies, but our approach doesn’t: we start with your property’s specific conditions, your lifestyle, and your vision.
Climate-Smart Plant Selection
One thing we’ve learned building landscapes in this climate: the Bay Area’s Mediterranean weather – warm dry summers and cool wet winters – rewards certain plants and punishes others. We select species that are proven performers in our specific microclimate, which means your landscape looks healthy and vibrant in August heat just as it does after January rains.
