Hardscape is our specialty. The whole yard is our job.
Hardscaping is everything permanent in your yard — stone, pavers, walls, steps. We pair it with planting, irrigation and lighting so the finished space feels complete. Big project or small, we’re a good fit.
What will my project cost?
Build a quick project list and see a realistic price range before you ever pick up the phone. Then send it to us — we’ll confirm it at your free walkthrough.
- Nothing added yet
Ranges reflect typical installed costs for our area and include labor, base prep and materials. Final pricing depends on access, soil, grade and material choices, and is confirmed in a written, itemized proposal after a site visit.
See it finished before we break ground.
Most people struggle to picture a yard from a sketch. Our 3D renderings show you exactly what you’re getting — materials, plants, lighting — so decisions are easy and there are no surprises.
- Complete 3D renderings with day and nighttime views
- 2D overhead plan with dimensions
- Full planting plan
- Two rounds of revisions included
A simple, no-pressure process
You’ll always know what happens next, what it costs, and who’s on your property.

What our clients say
Flexible and patient
“We cold contacted Lost Coast Yard Works for a consultation on designing and installing a recreation pond for us. Ayden arrived, surveyed our property, and drew up a great design. I am beyond impressed…”
Easy to work with
“We found Lost Coast Yard Works easy to work with, flexible with their design, and fair in their pricing. They completed the project on time and accommodated our busy schedule.”
Highly recommended!
“Perfect details my entry needed! The attention to detail was impressive. I enjoyed my experience so much that I’m hiring them to do a paver patio at another property.”
Small team. On purpose.
Quantity isn’t our goal — quality is. Lost Coast Yard Works was started to build one-of-a-kind outdoor spaces that last longer than we do, so we only bring on people who care as much as we do.
We still have the knowledge, machinery and manpower to handle projects of any size on schedule — and because we’re small, we happily take on the smaller jobs bigger outfits turn down. Every project gets finished to our standard: above and beyond what you expected.

Frequently asked
Is the walkthrough really free?
Yes. The initial 30-minute walkthrough and consultation is free with no obligation. We’ll get a full understanding of your vision, look at site conditions, and talk through options and ballpark budget.
Are you licensed?
Yes — we hold a California C-27 Landscaping Contractor license, #1130801. You can verify it anytime on the CSLB website.
Do you take on small projects?
Absolutely. Because we’re a small team, we can take on a single walkway, a set of steps, or a fire pit just as happily as a full backyard.
How much of a deposit do you require?
We follow California home-improvement rules: a down payment never exceeds 10% of the contract price or $1,000, whichever is less. Remaining payments are tied to clear progress milestones in your contract.
Do I need the 3D design?
It’s optional. Simple projects often go straight to an itemized proposal. For bigger or more personal spaces, the 3D design lets you see everything — including nighttime lighting — before a single stone is set.
How accurate is the online estimator?
It gives realistic ranges for typical projects in our area. Your final price comes in a written, itemized proposal after we see the site — access, soil, grade and material selections all play a role.
What’s the best time of year to build?
Hardscape can be built most of the year; planting does best in fall and early spring. Our calendar fills up for late spring and summer, so booking a walkthrough in winter is the best way to get on the schedule early.
