EcoTech Paving
Landscape Gardeners in Oakland, CA
Average rating: 5 out of 5 stars15 February 2024
“I recently had the pleasure of engaging Eco Tech Paving for a residential project, and I must say, their service exceeded all expectations. From start to finish, their professionalism and dedication to quality were evident. The initial consultation was thorough, with Fernando taking the time to understand my needs and preferences. He provided clear explanations of the available options and offered valuable recommendations based on his expertise. Throughout the project, communication remained prompt and transparent, ensuring that I was always informed of progress and any potential changes. When it came to the actual work, Eco Tech Paving truly shone. The craftsmanship displayed was impeccable, with attention to detail evident in every aspect of the job.

Westcoast Hardscape
Landscape Gardeners in Oakland, CA
Average rating: 5 out of 5 stars24 July 2020
“We are so happy with our "refreshed" backyard from Westcoast Hardscape! The team was professional, knowledgeable and a pleasure to work with. Mike/ operations manager was proactive & honest with communication, shared ideas to consider and walked through the process and options so we knew exactly what was planned. We can't wait to work with them again for future projects, we can not recommend them enough....overall an excellent experience and amazing work!!!”
Form and Function Landscapes
Landscape Gardeners in Oakland, CA
Average rating: 5 out of 5 stars7 June 2022
“Luis and his team are top notch professionals who focus on quality. I have had the good fortune to work with him on several projects to improve my home and backyard in San Francisco. The first was a fairly complicated deck rebuild followed by my request to build a series of planters from an architect's drawings. They did such a great job on those I asked them to replace all my exterior siding and even add a window which looks marvelous. I can't recommend Form and Function Landscapes enough. My experience with Luis is he has always been fair and honest. I know I can trust him and his team of landscapers, carpenters, plumbers and electricians to do a good job.”

Blue Wagon Synthetic Turf Supply (East Bay)
Landscape Gardeners in Oakland, CA
Average rating: 5 out of 5 stars2 March 2024
“We moved into a new home and sadly had to make the decision to remove the natural turf in our yard with artificial turf. The drainage was poor and our 3 dogs would have turned the yard and our house into a muddy disaster. Blue Wagon's crew was efficient, polite and courteous. Within 3 weeks, and it would have been less if it wasn't for some rain delays, we had our new yard and we couldn't be happier. The quality of work was first rate, the house stays clean, the dogs like it, and I must admit, because I was a skeptic at first, I even think it looks great”
R&R Backyard Remodeling
Landscape Gardeners in Oakland, CA
Average rating: 5 out of 5 stars11 March 2022
“We hired R&R to build a 1,900 sqft deck, outdoor kitchen and seating area. The team was outstanding! I can't say enough great things about these guys. They were clear about what they were going to do, when they were going to do it, and then in the end, it all happened as they said it would. The entire team was fantastic to work with. They came with great ideas and delivered for us every step of the way. If you are looking to remodel your backyard, look no further - this is your team. Choose anyone else at your own risk. Ron and the team are by far the best contractors I've ever worked with. Plus they are great guys on top of it, which makes the process move so much more smoothly. We never had to chase anyone down or wonder when anything was going to happen. They were great communicators throughout the entire project and we absolutely love our new backyard. Highly recommend working with them!”
SouthBay Design and Landscaping
Landscape Gardeners in Oakland, CA
Average rating: 5 out of 5 stars26 June 2019
“Southbay Design & Landscaping redid our backyard over 4 years ago, and have been maintaining it ever since. They are very responsive to any requests we have and are thorough in the maintenance of our yard. I appreciate that they will plant new plants for us if we pick them up and have given advice on what kind of plants work around our yard. They even help out by fixing our sprinklers without us asking (we actually hadn’t realized it was broken but were suspicious of why the grass wasn’t growing well in one spot). We appreciate their professionalism and good work.”
Crystal Springs Landscape Inc
Landscape Gardeners in Oakland, CA
Average rating: 5 out of 5 stars17 December 2020
“Nato Vargas and his team did extensive drainage work for us in 2014. This involved taking down the soil level 4 inches in the back garden, digging and installing several french drains and a sump pump. Since then we've had no water accumulation during subsequent rainy seasons, protecting our foundation. The drainage works perfectly! Nato and team have come back twice, in 2017 and 2020, to repair and stain our back garden fence, resurface the gold fine decomposed granite paths, install a new mail box, replace a garden gate and build a wood shelter for our recology bins. Nato and his team do beautiful work!”
Pacific Premier Landscape Inc.
Landscape Gardeners in Oakland, CA
Average rating: 5 out of 5 stars1 December 2022
“We found Pacific Premier Landscape as they worked on a neighbor's yard. They came within a day to do the measurement and quoted a reasonable price. The guys came and did a high quality deck and turf within 4 days. The crew were professional and did a really great job. They paid a lot of attention to the details and respected our property.”
Mariposa Gardening & Design Cooperative, Inc.
Landscape Gardeners in Oakland, CA
Average rating: 5 out of 5 stars21 September 2012
“My garden had good bones but the plants were all wrong. I wanted a garden that looked natural but well-kept, a tough aesthetic to pull off. I wanted lots of birds and butterflies. Mariposa Gardening has taken care of my garden for a few years now. The principal, Andrea Hurd, started by editing the original sorry collection of misplaced plants, replacing the losers with absolute winners. I now have a beautiful variety of textures, colors, shapes and sizes. Something is in bloom in all seasons. We are overrun with birds and, in season, with butterflies. Her maintenance crews have done a great job of keeping her work looking good. The trees are elegantly pruned; each one displays that gold standard "looks like it grew that way" look. Any special request that I make is quickly taken care of. Sometimes I get treats, in the form of new flowers or vegetable starts (I love foraging in my own back yard). In short I am completely happy with Mariposa Gardening and Design.”

Newly planted or seedlings may need more frequent watering for proper establishment. During hot and dry weather, plants may require additional watering to prevent drought stress, so monitoring soil moisture is important.

If you haven’t dabbled with the garden trowel before or you know your garden design vision is beyond your gardening skills, then it’s time to call in the Oakland, CA garden landscapers. Landscape gardeners in Oakland, CA will be able to bring your outside space to life with flowers, plants, trees, shrubbery, lawns and all sorts of verdant, floral features. You can think beyond the flora too, to patios, decking, sculptures, pathways, outdoor sculptures and all sorts of other garden supplies. If you find the right Oakland, CA gardeners or landscapers then there’s no limit to what you can do with your garden.

Why should I hire a landscape gardener in Oakland, CA?


Even if you do have a few green fingers yourself, garden landscapers in Oakland, CA will have the experience and training to carry out larger landscaping projects and will have the eye for what works best where and when in your garden. They may work with a landscape designer or architect who will put together the plans that they then execute, or they may do this work themselves. If you’re looking for an Oakland, CA landscape architect, or perhaps you want to select your own garden supplies yourself, then you can find the right professionals for this on Houzz, too. Here are some related professionals and vendors to complement the work of landscape contractors: Landscape Architects & Garden Designers, Garden & Landscape Supplies, Stone, Paving & Concrete, Tree Services.

What’s the difference between gardeners and landscapers?


The term landscapers is often interchangeable with gardeners, but landscape gardeners (as they’re also known) are sometimes a bit different from regular gardeners. Usually, landscapers can change the layout and structure of gardens, working with water features, paving, decking and other more substantial parts of gardens. A basic gardener, on the other hand, will deal only with lawns, plants, trees and flowers. However, you will often find gardeners in Oakland, CA that offer both gardening and landscaping together and can source all kinds of landscaping and garden supplies for you.

Will I need to have a regular gardener?


Once the plants have been chosen, planted or potted, and the lawn or patio laid, then your garden will be ready to enjoy, but never completely finished. Like all living things, your garden will grow and change with time and the seasons, so it will need a bit of TLC and garden maintenance from time to time. This is when you may want to hire Oakland, CA gardeners again, especially if you have a very large garden or landscaped area that needs constant upkeep. Hire Oakland, CA gardeners to water, weed and prune your plants, keep the lawn trim and green, and cut back any overgrowing trees. Some Oakland gardeners may source their own garden supplies, while with others you may have to do this yourself.

Questions to ask a landscape gardener:


  • How long have you been in the gardening business?
  • Do you design gardens or just carry out the gardening/landscaping work?
  • Have you worked on similar garden projects to mine before?
  • Who will work on the project? Do you subcontract any work to other gardeners?
  • Will you offer advice on what plants will work best with my outdoor space, design and the current season?
  • Will you provide the garden supplies or should I choose these myself?
  • How long will it take you to complete this project?
  • What are your landscaping costs?
  • Can you provide a written estimate?
  • Do you offer garden maintenance work? What are your daily or hourly rates as a regular gardener?
