Common Questions
How do you handle fence post movement and sagging gates in Santa Cruz's sandy soil?
In Santa Cruz, fence post movement and sagging gates are common due to the sandy, loose soil and coastal moisture. We address this by setting posts in concrete footings at least 24 inches deep, using galvanized steel brackets for extra stability. For gates, we install heavy-duty hinges and a tension rod to prevent sagging, ensuring your fence remains straight and functional for years.
What does your sustainable landscape design process involve?
We start with a detailed on-site consultation to understand your property and preferences. Our designs focus on low-water, native plants and incorporate features like custom stonework, decks, and arbors. We use solar-powered equipment for installation and organic methods for ongoing maintenance, aiming to create a beautiful landscape that requires minimal water and care.
