Expert Landscape Planting in Morgan Hill, CA

STG Landscaping handles landscape planting for single-family homes throughout Morgan Hill. We assess your yard's soil type, sun exposure, and drainage before a single plant goes in the ground. Morgan Hill's clay-heavy soils and hot, dry summers demand careful plant selection. We choose species suited to the local Mediterranean climate, where wet winters and dry summers can stress plants that are not matched to the conditions. Our team preps the soil, sets proper spacing, and places each plant at the correct depth. We work with low- and very-low-water-use plants that align with Morgan Hill's Water Efficient Landscape Ordinance, so your yard stays compliant and water-smart. Whether you are refreshing a front yard on a single-family lot or adding structure to a larger backyard, we build planting plans that take root and hold up season after season.

Carlos and the entire team delivered exceptional service from beginning to end. I had reached out after seeing the positive reviews they had received on Next Door, and I was not disappointed. STG meticulously re-poured my mow strip, trimmed back the roots from the large magnolia tree, and replanted sod. They also removed a tree stump and cleared away all the old plants, transforming my front strip into a beautiful landscape with a mature tree and a variety of plants. I would highly recommend them.

Carlos and the rest of the team at STG Landscaping provided an exceptional experience from the moment of the first call until our project was done. Out of the 5 businesses we reached out to for estimates, STG was head and shoulders above the rest in price, professionalism, and customer service. We were even more impressed by the quality of work that was done with our fence (pictured). We're looking forward to working with STG again for continued projects on our home.

We got quotes from several companies and ended up picking STG Landscaping to redo our front yard. They provided an extremely thorough initial quote and came out multiple times to answer questions we had. We asked if they could do the work in the next 2 weeks and they ended up working long days and getting it all done in 3 days! Carlos was extremely responsive and professional and ensured we knew how to keep up with our new grass. Before our yard was just hard packed dirt and weeds with a ton of existing roots from a huge tree that’s no longer here. Now we have a beautiful front lawn and sprinklers! They even put in a drip system for me to plant flowers in a flower bed and they re-trenched our gutter drain pipes to the street. We are so happy with their work and will be using them in the future for more projects!

We needed a retaining wall replaced and pronto! The side of our property was sliding onto our neighbor’s yard and the weather report was predicting a heavy rain system coming soon. I reached out to Carlos who came over the same day to survey the landslide and later that night he sent a detailed quote and a very reasonable price! They arrived early every morning and even working in the rain, knowing our concern about avoiding any more possible damage to our neighbor’s yard. I greatly appreciated the crew cleaning around the site at the end of each day so that we could easily get into/out of our home without a hassle. Carlos communicated regularly throughout the project giving updates every day. The entire crew were diligent, organized and professional. The retaining wall looks fantastic and we are super happy with the outcome! Highly recommend this team for your landscaping projects! Thank you, Estevez Landscaping!

We did a full backyard and front yard work with Carlos and his team. He brought in great ideas and was able to execute the design perfectly. They were meticulous, paid attention to every detail, and completed the project on time. We are very happy with the way the project turned out. We will happily recommend Carlos for any landscaping related work.
