Consultation
Our consultation process begins with understanding your vision and property characteristics. A degreed horticulturalist evaluates your space, discusses budget considerations, and recommends solutions tailored to your needs. Clients receive personalized guidance on plant selection, layout options, and sustainable practices to create functional, aesthetically pleasing outdoor environments.
Design
We create custom landscape designs that reflect your lifestyle and property architecture. Our process incorporates low-maintenance plants, drought-tolerant materials, and functional hardscaping elements. Collaborating with local designers, we develop detailed plans that ensure efficient installation and long-term landscape success while maintaining your property's unique character.

Our installation services cover complete landscape transformation from demolition to final planting. We handle drainage systems, irrigation setup, masonry work, and wood structures with precision. The experienced team ensures projects stay on schedule while maintaining quality standards through every phase of construction and implementation.
Drought Tolerant Landscapes
Specialized drought-tolerant landscapes combine aesthetic appeal with water conservation. We incorporate low-water plants, drip irrigation systems, and decorative rock features to create sustainable outdoor spaces. These designs reduce water usage by up to 50% while maintaining visual interest through strategic plant selection and hardscaping elements.

Our clean-up services restore overgrown properties to their optimal condition. We perform seasonal pruning, remove dead vegetation, refresh mulch beds, and tune-up irrigation systems. The process includes debris removal and spot planting to rejuvenate landscapes while maintaining healthy plant growth and property aesthetics.

Blair Landscaping transformed the 360 degree outdoor space at our house. The project took about 3 weeks and included removing existing mal-performing trees, wisteria, rotten pergolas, weed filled grass and inefficient irrigation. In its place they delivered 22 species of plants and trees, built a rock retaining wall, planted the most appropriate trees along the perimeter, installed quality landscape lighting, replaced the grass with a variety that will better withstand our dogs and kids and converted all planting beds to drip irrigation. The crew was superb and showed up every morning on time

Randy and his crew did a great job landscaping our backyard. We know very little about plants, trees, etc that would make our yard look beautiful, so we put ourselves in Randy's hands. He patiently listened to us try and explain what we wanted. He came up with a great plan. The crew worked hard even during the hottest days, they were very detailed, and were respectful. We get lots of compliments from neighbors. We plan to have Randy come back next Spring and landscape the front yard.

Our family has used Randy Blair landscape five times over the past 10 years. This includes three different houses. He listens to your ideas, provides guidance, makes recommendations, very sensitive to your budget and does quality work on time as promised. He does multiple check-ins throughout the project and keeps you up-to-date on the schedule every week. His crew has been with him for many years and are as solid as they come. Our project took 8 weeks and the crew showed up every morning at 7am. When they left, the yard was cleaned up. We will continue to use Randy when our landscape projects

This is a long overdue review. I have used Blair landscaping for two major projects now. From the initial design and budget, Randy works closely with you to ensure your needs are met. For our backyard project he built us a pergola that's I found online and to this day looks beautiful. They also put in plants, grass and built a beautiful seating area along the back to host our family events. This year Randy completed work in our front yard. A complete makeover that included paving, building a tree box, grass and several beautiful plants were added.
Randy is extremely personable, easy to

Blair Landscape Services redid my dads entire backyard last year. They did an amazingly thorough job at a reasonable price. Whenever there was a plant that died, they came out and fixed it immediately. I would highly recommend Blair Landscape!

Excellent customer service! Randy was very easy to work with. Not only did he come out twice to help me develop a beautiful yard, he did so while keeping within my budget. Randy has a B.S. in Horticulture and did a great job helping me select plants to my specifications. He really listened to what I wanted done and stayed on budget. When I contacted him months prior and scheduled a start date he said he'd get back to me a week before he and his crew were going to start. He actually called me a day earlier than expected! Off to a good start, much better than the landscapers who said they

Blair Landscaping is a first rate business all around.
Randy and his co-workers, who were all very professional, finished a full redo on the front of our house in Sycamore Homes, Danville, CA in mid-April 2019. We have received many, many compliments from folks watching the work being done and walking by the house. The design, completed by J Montgomery designs, was very well executed by Blair. His price was very reasonable and the work, plants and materials selected were of highest quality. I recommend his company without reservation.
