Landscaping for Residential Communities

We are a partner to homeowners’ associations throughout the Santa Barbara region.  Our crews are meticulous in the upkeep of entryways, signage areas, and common greenspaces.  Having a beautiful and well-maintained landscape throughout a development is attractive to home buyers and instills in residents a sense of pride.

Cost-Effective Landscaping

Through our continued work for local residential developments, we have honed a process that is not only efficient, but affordable, too, without sacrifice to quality.  And we bring our dedication to affordable landscapes to our customers, as well.  We use plants that are drought tolerant and easy to maintain, ensuring a great looking landscape that fits every HOA’s annual budget.

Offering Peace and Quiet

We know that often the provision of rules that ensure quiet enjoyment of the premises is part of the appeal of living in an HOA. That’s why we schedule our workers to be on the property only for times when sounds from our equipment are the least likely to be disruptive.

Enhance Property Values with Beautiful Landscaping

Most homeowners who live in an association cite landscape upkeep as a top reason for choosing to live in one.  Having a well-maintained landscape from the entry signage and throughout the common areas demonstrates to potential homebuyers that the association takes great pride in maintaining its property.  And having an association people want to live in keeps property values high over the long term.

Community Landscaping Furthers Community Goals

Younger buyers are demanding sustainable practices in every aspect of everyday life.  Having a “green” landscape is no different, and a homeowners’ association that hires the right landscape company can deliver.  We are knowledgeable in best practices of our profession, from waterwise landscapes to native plant selections.

Reduce Liability Exposure

Having common areas in a development means taking on liability.  And, as much of those common areas are outdoors, it’s incumbent upon us to make sure those spaces remain safe for community use.  We will ensure walkways are kept clear of leaves, overspray from irrigation is mitigated, and that any downed branches from trees are addressed promptly.
