Services
Stamped Concrete
Our stamped concrete services create durable, aesthetically pleasing surfaces that mimic natural stone or brick. Using advanced texturing techniques and color integration, we transform plain concrete into elegant walkways, patios, and driveways. Each installation includes proper base preparation and sealing to ensure long-lasting performance in East Bay climates.
Interlocking Pavers
We specialize in interlocking paver systems that combine beauty with structural integrity. Our installations feature precision-cut pavers arranged in custom patterns, with proper sand bedding and edge restraint systems. This solution provides superior durability and easier maintenance compared to traditional concrete surfaces.
Retaining Walls
Our retaining wall solutions address slope stabilization while enhancing property aesthetics. We use quality materials like concrete blocks, natural stone, or timber to create functional, visually appealing structures. Proper drainage integration prevents water damage, ensuring structural longevity in varied terrain conditions.
Irrigation Systems
We design and install efficient irrigation systems tailored to property size and plant needs. Our smart controller technology optimizes water usage while maintaining healthy landscapes. System components include drip irrigation zones, rain sensors, and customized watering schedules for East Bay's climate patterns.
Outdoor Lighting
Our low-voltage outdoor lighting systems enhance safety and ambiance while extending usable outdoor hours. We install energy-efficient LED fixtures for path lighting, accent lighting, and security applications. Custom designs integrate seamlessly with existing landscapes while meeting electrical safety standards.

We just had our backyard done by Geoff and his team. We couldn't be happier with the way it turned out. The whole team was a joy to work with and they know their craft. The project included new sod, planting new trees and plants, fence work, fire pit area and low voltage lighting. They did a fantastic job and at a very reasonable price. I would highly recommend Swanson Landscaping for any backyard project. We are loving our new backyard

Swanson's Landscaping was a great company to work with from start to finish. From demo to done, they completely transformed our yard space in 6 working days. Geoff was so helpful in bringing our design to life and knowledgable in answering all of our questions. The crew was professional, hardworking, and friendly. We could not be more happy with the work that was done!

We hired Geoff to do a retaining wall in our front yard and the result is above and beyond what we had envisioned. I can't recomend him enough.

Swansons Landscaping completely re-did our front yard. They worked quickly and thoroughly; they were flexible and responsive as we made some changes to our plans. The new front yard looks fantastic, and they were not even one of the higher quotes we received. Highly recommend!
