Duarte

Garden View Landscape, Nursery & Pools proudly serves Duarte, California with custom pool construction and landscape construction—with one team guiding the entire outdoor project from design through build.

Duarte’s location at the edge of the foothills means outdoor projects here often come down to smart planning and performance. Some homes have flatter, family-focused yards where the priority is a clean patio layout, easy maintenance, and a pool area that feels updated. Other properties deal with grade changes, hillside edges, and drainage, where steps, retaining solutions, and water management become just as important as the final look. We design with those realities in mind so your backyard is not only beautiful, but also built to function well long-term.

Our process is straightforward and coordinated. We plan the pool, hardscape, planting, irrigation, drainage, and lighting together so the finished space feels cohesive—then we build it with craftsmanship and materials chosen for durability.

Popular Duarte projects include pool remodels and modernization, new pools and spas, patios and walkways (pavers, concrete, natural stone), grading and drainage improvements, steps and retaining solutions for sloped areas, outdoor kitchens and fire features, privacy screening and structured planting, irrigation upgrades, and landscape lighting for safety and ambiance.
