⭐️ 5-Star Rated Affordable Services In Hollister, Gilroy, Morgan Hill, Watsonville & Surrounding Areas
Custom Landscape Design
Your outdoor space should be more than just a yard — it should be an extension of your home. 831 JG Landscaping creates custom landscape designs for homeowners across Hollister, Gilroy, Watsonville, and Morgan Hill. From concept to installation, we bring your vision to life with designs that balance beauty, function, and lasting value.
Landscape Design That Transforms Your Property
Great landscaping starts with great design. Without a thoughtful plan, even the best materials and installation can fall flat. That’s why every project at 831 JG Landscaping begins with a custom landscape design tailored to your property, your lifestyle, and your budget.
We don’t use cookie-cutter templates. Our designer works with you on-site to understand the unique characteristics of your yard — sun exposure, soil conditions, drainage patterns, existing features — and creates a plan that maximizes every square foot. Whether you’re redesigning a tired backyard or building an entirely new outdoor living space from scratch, we design landscapes that look incredible and function perfectly for years to come.
As a professional landscape designer serving Hollister and San Benito County for over 15 years, we know what works in Central California’s climate and we design accordingly.
Our Landscape Design Services
Backyard Landscape Design
Your backyard is where your family gathers, entertains, and relaxes. Our backyard landscape designs transform underutilized or outdated spaces into functional outdoor living areas. We integrate patios, walkways, garden beds, lighting, water features, and seating areas into cohesive designs that flow naturally with your home.
Whether you want a low-maintenance retreat, a space for outdoor entertaining, or a family-friendly yard with room to play, we design backyards that match your lifestyle — not just your Pinterest board.
Front Yard Landscape Design
First impressions matter. A well-designed front yard dramatically improves curb appeal and can increase your property’s value by as much as 10–15%. Our front yard landscape design services focus on creating clean, welcoming entryways that balance aesthetics with practicality.
We incorporate drought-tolerant plantings, decorative hardscaping, pathway design, and accent lighting to create front yards that stand out in the neighborhood while staying low-maintenance. Every design considers water efficiency — especially important in California’s climate.
Outdoor Living Space Design
An outdoor living space is one of the highest-value improvements you can make to your home. We design custom outdoor spaces that integrate patios, pergolas, fire features, outdoor kitchens, lighting, and landscape plantings into a unified design that extends your living area beyond your walls.
Our outdoor living space designs are tailored to how you actually use your yard — whether that’s hosting weekend gatherings, quiet evening relaxation, or giving kids a safe space to play. We design for real life, not just for photos.
Complete Property Landscape Renovation
Sometimes a yard needs more than a refresh — it needs a full transformation. Our complete landscape renovation service redesigns your entire property from the ground up. We assess what’s working, remove what isn’t, and create a master plan that addresses everything: grading, drainage, hardscaping, softscaping, irrigation, and lighting.
This is our specialty — the projects that take a property from “needs work” to “wow.” If you’re planning a full landscape renovation in Hollister or the surrounding area, start with a free design consultation and let us show you what’s possible.

Jesus (Chuy to our community in Twin Oaks Hollister) His work is amazing….Chuy has an extraordinary vision when providing customers with ideas. He installed our pavers in our backyard and landscaped our front yard. He is honest and is very fair with pricing. He’s always available to come by and see his customers. Highly recommend Chuy with integrity and his impeccable work!!!
Jesse and his guys showed up in a timely manner. Did a phenomenal job. We had great communication. Would highly recommend. This is the place to go for all your landscape needs. A+ thank you JG landscaping
These guys are the pros! Their work is meticulous, their prices competitive and their crews are friendly and polite! Jesus and team do a wonderful job and are highly recommended in our community.
Excellent work, both landscaping and paving
Very responsive and reasonable price. Needed concrete driveway ramp to be replaced with a wheelchair gradual slope. He knew what I needed. Came at 7:30am with his crew. One to cut concrete with a circular saw, 2 to use sledge hammer, one to use concrete breaker and one a specialist in smoothing concrete. 2.5hrs to break up and remove 20ft x 4ft 4inch concrete, 2hrs to spread concrete and 2hrs to finish and cleanup. My neighbors are interested now.
Jesús and his crew were absolutely amazing. We had a short-notice desire to cover an existing slab with fresh, proper concrete--something other shops wouldn't do. Not only did they grade it for drainage, even better than we could have imagined, but the existing slab wasn't aligned with the house, being a couple degrees off...they went to the trouble to make the new slab square to the house. Really, really happy with their work.

Frequently Asked Questions About Patio & Hardscaping
Here’s what people in Hollister, Gilroy, Morgan Hill & Watsonville often ask us:
How much does landscaping cost?
A landscape architect holds a professional license and typically works on large commercial or public projects requiring engineering and permitting. A landscape designer focuses on residential and smaller commercial projects, creating custom plans for yards, patios, gardens, and outdoor living spaces. For most homeowners in Hollister looking to transform their yard, a professional landscape designer like 831 JG Landscaping is the right fit.
Do you design and install, or just design?
We do both. 831 JG Landscaping handles the entire process from initial design consultation through full installation. Having one team manage design and build eliminates miscommunication and ensures the finished project matches the approved plan exactly.
How long does the landscape design process take?
The design phase typically takes 1–2 weeks depending on complexity. Installation timelines vary from a few days for simple designs to 2–4 weeks for full property renovations. We provide a clear timeline for both design and installation during your consultation.
Can you design a drought-tolerant landscape?
Absolutely. We specialize in drought-tolerant landscape designs that use native California plants, efficient drip irrigation, permeable hardscaping, and smart mulching to minimize water usage while keeping your yard beautiful. This is especially important in Hollister’s climate.
What if I have ideas but don’t know where to start?
That’s exactly what the design consultation is for. Bring your Pinterest boards, magazine clippings, or just your general ideas — we’ll help translate them into a realistic design plan that works for your property and budget. Many of our best projects started with clients who just said, “I know I want something better than what I have.”
Do I need a landscape design before getting hardscaping or sod installed?
Not always, but it’s highly recommended for larger projects. A design plan ensures all the elements — hardscaping, plantings, irrigation, lighting — work together as a cohesive system rather than a collection of separate additions. It also helps prevent costly changes mid-project.
How do I get started?
Getting started is easy. Call us at or fill out our online form below to request a free design consultation. We’ll visit your property, discuss your vision, and provide a quote at no cost.
