Q&A
How does JML handle common San Francisco landscaping issues like broken irrigation or shifting rock gardens?
We address San Francisco's specific challenges with a proactive and durable approach. For irrigation, our design services prioritize efficient, low-maintenance systems using quality components, and our installation team ensures proper grading to prevent pooling and head damage. For unstable areas like rock gardens or slopes, we use professional earthmoving and regrading techniques, along with structurally sound retaining walls, to create stable, long-lasting foundations that withstand the city's terrain and weather.
Can you design and build a complete outdoor living space, like a patio with an outdoor kitchen?
Absolutely. As a full-service firm, we handle everything from the initial landscape design to the final construction. We can integrate a new patio, walkway, or terrace with functional features like an outdoor kitchen, arbor, or fireplace. Our process ensures cohesive design and seamless installation, managing all elements—masonry, carpentry, irrigation, and greenscape—to create a unified and enjoyable outdoor extension of your home.
What is your design process for a typical San Francisco garden?
Our process begins with understanding your vision and the unique conditions of your site, including sun exposure, wind patterns, soil, and slope. Leveraging over 30 years of local experience, we create a custom design that addresses both aesthetics and function, often incorporating sustainable practices and durable materials suited to our climate. We then manage the entire construction or installation, from earthmoving and hardscaping to planting and irrigation, ensuring the final garden is both beautiful and built to last.
