An excellent experience! They replaced my old driveway and a side patio. That was 6 years ago and the work still looks new! They came in and did the job in a couple days less than they predicted. Clean up was done perfectly. They also dug down to remove the roots of bamboo that would have caused future damage. Great job done well!!!

I've done several projects with Pacific Outdoor Living and they are always so easy to work with. Their project managers are knowledgeable and in constant communication throughout the project.

Chris Sosa Google review May 2025
Having been in our home for some time we knew about numerous issues that needed to be addressed. The backyard would flood during the rains as water came down from the mountains. The pool finish was old and disintegrating. The irrigation was old, galvanized pipes and needed to be replaced. And the overall aesthetic was rustic and the yard unusable. We needed a completely new design.

Quite a few years ago, Pacific Paving Stone and Pacific Outdoor Living did my driveway, and to this day it still looks great. The crew was professional and the project was carried out in excellent order. Recently I called with a couple of small landscaping repair questions, and David Oddone was pleasant, knowledgeable, and made me feel completely at ease asking for advice.

I just wanted to convey how impressed I was with your various construction crews. Everyone involved from demolition to repairs to stone installation was outstanding, professional, and moved with real urgency. This was our second project with Pacific Outdoor Living, and we could not be happier with the results.

FAQ

The first step is to get in touch with one of our appointment specialists who can help get you set up and propose the right steps to take. You can do this by either filling out an estimate request form at the bottom of this page, or by calling us at: 818-293-5926. The next step will be a site analysis. A specialist will come to your home to measure your property, then return to our office to create a CAD drawing. The cost for this typically ranges from $600 to $800. Exceptions may apply, but the Call Center Specialist will review them with you. We would then have you come into the office and meet one of our talented designers who will do a rough sketch and give a sense of what the project may actually cost as well as what design fee would apply to complete a full plan.

Yes! Well, everything outdoors, that is. We offer just about any outdoor landscape and hardscape service you can think of, including custom pools, pool remodeling, stylized landscaping, patios, driveways, ponds, outdoor fireplaces, custom masonry, custom carpentry, irrigation, outdoor lighting and more!

You can always get your own permits but we typically pull all permits needed for your job. We have our own in-house permitting department. No need to take time off work to wait in any long lines or deal with confusing guidelines.

Our warranty varies based on the type of work but is consistent with industry standards. When you meet one of our designers, they can walk you through it or call for more information.

We are VERY unique in the Design/Build world. Very few companies have their own in-house crews, specially trained for every trade involved with building your project. This means there will be a different crew handling demolition, landscape, pavers, etc. on your job, and not the same one doing it all. Each crew is supervised by an on-site supervisor so your project goes smoothly. To top it off, we usually work six days a week until your project is complete.

Depending on the size and scope of the job, a landscape design will most likely be needed. Our designers can create one which is then yours to use, should you wish to get other bids for your job.

A custom design varies anywhere from $300 to $1850. We leave the amount up to the designer depending on how much work is involved. The design fee covers site measurements, an illustrated design, a 3-D design and revisions as needed.

We service Los Angeles and the surrounding areas, from Calabasas and Woodland Hills to Glendale and Pasadena, and everything in between. Check out our service areas here.

Yes, our minimum for projects is usually $7,500. There are times and circumstances where the minimum is waived for past customers.

The landscape design process varies depending on the size of project, revisions and discussions needed along the way. We pride ourselves on making the design process as painless as possible. Your award-winning designer will work tirelessly until you’re 100% satisfied before starting. Generally it takes 2 to 5 weeks for completing the average design.

This can vary as well, depending on the size of the job, permits needed and many other factors. Very small jobs can be wrapped up in a week. Large projects can sometimes take 3-6 months. Your designer and job supervisor can give you a more exact timeline once your design is complete.

No, Pacific Outdoor Living does not offer landscape maintenance services, however we’re happy to recommend trusted local companies specifically tailored to your home’s needs.

We usually include a 4-week monitoring period, where a landscape tech will check timer settings and make sure plants are doing well. All our plants are covered by a limited warranty which covers replacements and service.
