Pleasanton covers everything from older homes near downtown to newer hillside subdivisions on the south and east sides. Downtown lots are about entries, walkways and compact patios; the newer hillside yards are about terracing, drainage and getting a level area out of a graded pad.

Work near Pleasanton

What started as a fence and retaining wall repair turned into a full backyard rebuild: a 14' x 17' paver patio with a gazebo, a pressure-treated wood retaining wall with a built-in bench seat, replanted hillside and steps that make the steep slope safe to walk.

What we see on local properties

  • Older downtown lots need entry, walkway and patio work that respects the age of the house.
  • Hillside subdivisions have engineered pads where wall and drainage work go together.
  • Hot, dry summers make shade and correct irrigation zoning worth doing properly.
  • Builder grading often leaves one low corner that needs a defined drain path.
  • Architectural guidelines apply in several neighbourhoods, so materials are settled up front.

“My wife and I recently hired Golden Hills Landscaping for a fence and retaining wall repair project that ultimately evolved into a complete backyard makeover. We could not be happier with the results. Alonso, the owner, was a pleasure to work with from start to finish. He took our general ideas and turned them into a cohesive, functional outdoor design that beautifully complements our property while staying within our budget. The scope of the project included building a 14' x 17' patio area with a gazebo, installing a pressure-treated wood retaining wall, constructing a patio bench seat, landscaping our hillside, and building steps to provide safe access up our steep hill. The craftsmanship and attention to detail throughout the project were outstanding. Alonso and his team were consistently prompt and professional. Whenever unexpected issues arose, Alonso was transparent and communicated clearly about the situation, available options, and any associated costs. We greatly appreciated his honesty and commitment to delivering the highest quality work. My wife and I are thrilled with our new outdoor living space and look forward to enjoying it for years to come. Our only regret is that we didn't undertake this project 20 years ago when we first moved into our home. We are grateful for the opportunity to work with Alonso and the entire Golden Hills Landscaping team and would highly recommend them to anyone considering an outdoor improvement project.”

“We recently replaced our concrete slab backyard with a stone paver patio at our home on Tanager Drive, and Alonso and his crew were fantastic. His quote was higher than others, but he earned the job by being methodical, available, and clearly capable. From the start he was thoughtful about the approach and helped us think through both design and execution. The project moved quickly and efficiently, and his crew was polite, professional, and detail-oriented. Alonso took initiative to fix small details without being asked, which really showed his pride in the work. One of the biggest value adds was his help with planning. He came with me to shop for stone, offered recommendations, and ultimately improved our original vision. The yard went from concrete to castle. The finished patio looks amazing and is one of our favorite spaces. I strongly recommend Alonso and his crew for any landscaping, yard work, or exterior renovation. Very grateful for his work and would absolutely hire him again.”

“Had a great experience with Golden Hills Landscape. They installed pavers, irrigation, rocks, and sod in my backyard and did a fantastic job. Super professional, great prep work, and everything was done in a timely manner. Pricing was very fair. The yard looks amazing--would definitely use them again and highly recommend.”
