Landscape Construction

Garden View Inc.’s landscaping division has done hundreds of jobs designed by various landscape architects. Most of our work has been done design-build style, winning over 120 awards in various categories from the California Landscape Contractors Association (CLCA), including Best in State and the President’s Award.

Water-Wise and Sustainable Plantings

Using attractive, drought-tolerant, and water-wise plants that are grouped smartly minimizes water use. All of our landscaping projects take plant needs and their placement into intricate consideration.
One of the benefits of having Garden View install your landscape is coming to our large nursery and viewing and helping choose the plants you want in your yard.

Woodwork – Decks, Arbors & Outdoor Rooms

CLCA Award Winning back yard features an outdoor kitchen and dining area under a pergola with columns. The space includes a stone counter with a built-in grill and appliances. A hanging planter with red flowers and a ceiling fan are above, while the tiled cement patio floor hosts a dining table with chairs.

Woodwork includes the pool house or any finishing touches to your landscape. The outdoor room will be your new favorite place at your home.

Ponds, Streams, and Waterfalls

A small waterfall cascades over large, uneven rocks into a body of water below. The rocks are surrounded by greenery with trees and shrubs, creating a serene landscape. A small figure of a wizard character stands by the water's edge, adding a touch of magic to this natural construction.

Koi ponds and streams make your outdoor space more serene.

Smart Irrigation Saves Water

Quality installation, quality products, zoning, and optional smart moisture sensors are the keys to saving water. We’ve been landscaping since 1978, with the experience to set you up properly the first time.

Pavers, Concrete, Masonry, Stone and Boulder Work

A well-lit, modern garden at night with a minimalist design featuring a stone-filled pondless water feature, small boulders, pink flowering plants, and palm trees. A unique stone bench and sculptural elements are placed among the greenery, creating a tranquil landscape .

Driveways and paths, interlocking pavers… if you can imagine it, we can build it!
At Garden View we rarely use artificial boulders (see article on our favorite boulders), and we have hundreds of tons of hand-selected real boulders in stock. We have systems of splitting and carving them, formulas on how to place them so they look natural, and small backyard cranes and special equipment to install them. We can do almost anything with real boulders that can be done with fake rock, but you don’t have to repaint them, they are prettier, and they are real!

BBQ’s and Outdoor Kitchens

An outdoor kitchen with stone walls, stainless steel appliances, and a built-in grill blends seamlessly into the landscape. The setup includes a sink, under-counter storage, and a counter space topped with a fruit bowl and potted plant. The patio flooring is made of paver stone tiles for a cohesive look.

The barbecue is the essential part of your Southern California home! Forget refill tanks and ugly grills—build it into your landscape and have it hooked up to your gas line. We can also create a complete outdoor kitchen with as many amenities as you can imagine.

Low and High Voltage Lighting

High-output/lower-wattage LEDs save on electricity costs while maintaining the high-voltage look you have come to love. Plus they last longer, with up to 50,000-hour bulbs. See our article on LED lighting.
