We are booked out for this calendar year! Welcome to Habiscapes where we pride ourselves in the creation of distinctive and nature-friendly outdoor spaces. Habiscapes will work with you to create a xeric landscape that will reduce water consumption and maintenance by utilizing beautiful, indigenous plantings. These water-wise and fire-safe landscapes incorporate special designs that showcase drought tolerant shrubs, trees, grasses, perennials and stone. Our landscapes are guaranteed to attract local wildlife, including birds, bees and butterflies, into your gardens and natural areas. We are typically booked months in advance so please plan accordingly...we do not install concrete curbing, driveways or walkways but opt to work with natural stone or paver products.

"We tried getting few quotes from different landscaping company and had hard time getting commitments on their calendar for over a year until we found Michael from Habiscapes. He was very professional, knowledgeable, organized, trustworthy and easy to work with. [*** Link removed ***] After reviewing the landscaping design in September, we got on his calendar for first week in June and he was spot on to start the work as planned. Michael gave excellent design suggestions to work on our project with native plants, habitat, steep slope design and keeping the budget in mind. Michael’s entire crew was very professional starting with his team supervisor James and rest of the crew Taylor and couple other guys, Who all did an extraordinary job. They all were always sharp on time in the morning at 8:30 am and packed up sharp at 4:30 pm giving us heads-up on the work planned for the next days and where we were on the schedule. This helped me and my husband plan our work schedules etc. They all worked hard moving huge boulders from the front to the back slopes, setting large few feet wide stepping stone slabs steps carefully so they do not damaged out front driveway. They did complete sprinkler work and setup vegetable beds. They completed our project as planned and updating us as they went where the sprinklers were and how to maintain the new landscaping for long term. They left our property and our neighborhood clean without leaving any mess. Couple of our neighbors were also impressed and already have started to work with Michael on their landscaping projects. Writing reviews is not my thing, but this crew were fabulous and deserve highest recommendation that anyone would be looking in a great landscaping company. I am already planning to work with them on my back patio paver project next. Thank you Michael and crew!!"

Excavating questions, answered by experts

Slab foundations are more affordable than crawl spaces because they require minimal excavation, as the slab sits directly on the ground or on footers that only sink a few feet into the ground. Crawl spaces require excavation of the entire footprint of the home to several feet below the surface. Not only does that mean higher labor costs, but more materials are necessary for the concrete foundation walls.

It’s possible to transplant trees as tall as 50 feet when an experienced tree planting service uses the right equipment. However, a tree with a trunk larger than two or three inches in diameter needs to be handled by a professional in order to yield successful transplanting results. Consulting a tree planting professional is the best way to tell if your large tree can be safely transplanted.

Excavations take a few days or up to a few weeks. The time it takes to excavate an area depends on the size of the area, the type of soil, the type of excavator, and even the time of year, since winter can make digging up the ground more difficult.

There is no standard depth, but typically, septic tanks are buried between 4 inches and 4 feet underneath the earth’s surface. There are a few factors that will determine your tank’s depth, including the height of your bedrock, the distance between your home and the tank, and the depth of your main sewer line.

Yes, you can install a trench drain if you already have concrete in your yard or garden. While it can complicate some aspects of the job and slightly run up the cost, it is doable. Residential trench drains can be easily retrofitted to outdoor areas with concrete without having to remove excessive amounts of your patio, pool area, or decorative walkways.
