What Our Clients Are Saying
Real reviews from homeowners across the Bay Area & Northern California
David and Obed were great from start to finish. They gave us solid advice on design choices and made sure our vision drove the project. They took a backyard full of dirt and turned it into our family's dream outdoor space. Highly recommend!
San Francisco, CA
David's team did a beautiful job transforming my yard into a gorgeous patio. They worked closely with me to bring my design to life and went the extra mile to make sure everything was right. Honest work, no hidden costs, no surprises.
Cupertino, CA
Big job: stump removal, full irrigation replacement, new sod, paver driveway, retaining walls, and lighting. It turned out more beautiful than we imagined. We liked the results so much we had them redo the front yard a few months later.
San Jose, CA
I cannot recommend this company enough. David turned my backyard, basically a giant hill of dirt and weeds, into a gorgeous oasis of fruit trees, plants, flowers, and retaining walls. Working with him was a real pleasure and the pricing was very fair.
San Francisco, CA
This was our second time using Landscape Associates, at a different property. David, Obed, and the crew added new paver stones, a planter, and expanded our irrigation. They even took care of drainage issues the original home builders had left behind.
San Jose, CA
Landscape Associates did a full remodel of my front and back yards. David understood exactly what I had in mind, delivered the yard I hoped for, and somehow made it even better. He kept in touch through every step and his crew was respectful of my property.
San Jose, CA
If I could give more stars I would. Workers showed up every single day at 8:30am sharp. David was always easy to reach and when I had changes mid-project, they accommodated every one without complaint. The customer service really set them apart.
Milpitas, CA
Great communication throughout and they walked us through every step. The paver patio and driveway are flawlessly integrated. We would absolutely hire them again. In fact I was already texting David about redoing the entire front yard.
San Jose, CA
We are very happy with the results. David installed a new front lawn and side yard plantings and the whole project wrapped up in a week. We were impressed that they renewed our entire irrigation system as part of the job. Would recommend to anyone in the area.

Our headquarters are located in Monterey, and we regularly travel throughout the Bay Area and the Monterey Peninsula for residential and commercial landscaping projects.
How much does landscaping typically cost?
Landscaping costs vary based on project scope, materials, and site conditions. Small projects like garden bed installations may start around $2,000 to $5,000, while full landscape renovations with hardscaping, irrigation, and planting can range from $15,000 to $75,000 or more. We provide free, no-obligation estimates for every project. Read our detailed landscaping cost guide for more information.
What is the difference between hardscaping and softscaping?
Hardscaping refers to the non-living structural elements of a landscape: pavers, concrete patios, retaining walls, pathways, and outdoor kitchens. Softscaping includes the living elements: plants, trees, shrubs, turf, and garden beds. A well-designed landscape combines both to create functional, beautiful outdoor spaces. Landscape Associates of CA specializes in both hardscaping and softscaping services.
Do you offer free landscaping estimates?
Yes! We offer free, no-obligation estimates for all landscaping projects. Simply call us at (408) 207-5545 or fill out our online contact form to schedule a consultation. We'll visit your property, discuss your vision, and provide a detailed estimate tailored to your goals and budget.
How long does a typical landscaping project take?
Project timelines depend on scope and complexity. A simple paver patio installation may take 3 to 5 days, while a complete landscape renovation with grading, irrigation, hardscaping, and planting can take 2 to 6 weeks. During your free consultation, we provide a detailed project timeline so you know exactly what to expect at every stage.
Are you insured?
Yes. Landscape Associates of CA carries full liability insurance. We have been serving Northern California homeowners and businesses for over 30 years. Our founder, David Muhoberac, brings decades of hands-on experience to every project.
What is the best time of year to landscape in Northern California?
In Northern California, the ideal time for most landscaping projects is spring (March to May) and fall (September to November). These seasons offer moderate temperatures and adequate soil moisture for planting. Hardscaping projects like paver patios, retaining walls, and concrete work can be done year-round since they don't depend on growing conditions.
How do I choose a landscaping contractor?
Look for a contractor who is experienced, insured, and has a strong portfolio of completed projects. Read online reviews, ask for references, and get detailed written estimates. Landscape Associates of CA carries full liability insurance and has maintained a 5.0 rating across Google and Yelp for over 30 years.
Do I need a permit for landscaping in California?
Most cosmetic landscaping like planting, mulching, and lawn installation does not require a permit. However, structural work such as retaining walls over 4 feet, significant grading, new drainage systems, and outdoor kitchens with gas or electrical connections typically require building permits. We help you understand which permits your project needs and plan for them before work begins.
