Your yard, done right the first time

Design, hardscape, and maintenance for South Bay homes — by a crew that shows up when they said they would and leaves the site cleaner than they found it.

What we do

Three crews, three trades

One company from first sketch to weekly upkeep — no handing your yard between three different contractors.

Design & planting

Drought-smart landscapes designed around how you actually use the yard.

  • Landscape design & plans
  • Native & low-water planting
  • Irrigation & drip systems
  • Sod & artificial turf

Hardscape

The bones of the yard — built to still look right twenty years from now.

  • Paver patios & walkways
  • Retaining walls
  • Fences & gates
  • Outdoor kitchens & fire pits

Maintenance

Weekly or biweekly routes that keep the finished work looking finished.

  • Mow, edge & blow
  • Pruning & seasonal cleanup
  • Irrigation checks & repairs
  • Fertilization programs
The proof

Recent work

Real yards, real budgets. Every project below was photographed the day we handed it back.

Willow Glen

Full backyard rebuild

Paver patio, drip-irrigated native beds, and a cedar privacy fence. Six weeks, start to finish.

Los Gatos

Lawn-to-native conversion

Took out 1,800 sq ft of thirsty lawn, put in a low-water landscape that cut the summer bill in half.

Campbell

Driveway & entry walk

Permeable pavers over a proper base — no puddles, no shifting, and it survived the first winter untouched.

Drag it yourself

Before & after

Same yard, same camera angle, five weeks apart. Slide to compare.

Before After

Willow Glen backyard — graded, drained, planted, and handed back in five weeks.

How it goes

The same four steps on every job, so you always know what happens next.

Walk the yard

We come out, measure, listen, and talk budget honestly — including what we'd skip.

Free · about an hour

Fixed quote

A written scope with a real number on it. No allowances that balloon later.

Within 3 days

The build

One crew, one foreman, a text update every day we're on site.

Scheduled in writing

Walkthrough

We walk every corner together. Final invoice only after you've signed off.

Plus 1-year warranty
Word of mouth
“Three quotes, and Ironwood was the only one that measured the yard instead of eyeballing it from the driveway. Finished on schedule, swept the street before they left. The patio is the best thing about our house now.”

Questions we always get

Do you charge for quotes?
No. We walk the yard, talk it through, and put a number in writing — free, no strings. We win enough of them that it works out.
Are you licensed and insured?
Yes — CA contractor's license #1098765, bonded, with liability and workers' comp on every crew member. Certificates available before we start, not after you ask twice.
How far out are you booked?
Design-build projects typically start four to six weeks from a signed quote. Maintenance routes usually have openings within two weeks. Spring fills fast — quote early.
What happens if something fails after the job?
Everything we build carries a one-year workmanship warranty, and plants we install are covered for 90 days with normal watering. If it's our fault, we fix it — no invoice.
