Landscaping in Irvine, CA
If you are ready to transform your Irvine, CA, property into a polished, high-performing outdoor space, Teserra brings the design vision, craftsmanship, and project management with our landscaping services to make it happen. From refined landscape design to enduring hardscapes – plus integrated elements like outdoor lighting, water features, and putting greens – we create spaces that look beautiful on day one and stay that way through Irvine’s sunny seasons.
Design-Led, Built to Last
Every Teserra project starts with a thoughtful design process. We listen to how you live outdoors, whether it is quiet mornings, weekend entertaining, kid-friendly play zones, pet areas, low-water planting, and translate that into a cohesive plan. Our team aligns aesthetics, function, and long-term maintenance, so the final result is stunning and smart.
What you can expect from our process:
- Site analysis & layout: Sun, shade, grade, drainage, privacy, and views.
- Material & plant curation: Climate-appropriate palettes that thrive locally.
- Phasing & budgeting: Clear scopes to match timelines and investment.
Landscaping Services That Thrive in Irvine
Climate-Responsive Planting
We select drought-conscious plantings that deliver color, texture, and seasonal interest without demanding intensive care. Think layered shrubs, architectural succulents, flowering accents, and canopy trees placed to frame views and cool hard surfaces.
Lawn Alternatives & Turf Solutions
Whether you want a lush look with lower upkeep or a year-round green space for pets and play, we install premium artificial grass systems engineered for drainage and durability. They pair beautifully with modern planting beds and hardscape edges and help reduce outdoor water use.
Irrigation & Drainage Done Right
Efficient irrigation is non-negotiable. We design and install smart systems to help keep plants healthy while minimizing waste. Just as important, our drainage strategies move water away from foundations and living areas to help prevent pooling and erosion.
Lighting for Beauty and Safety
Low-voltage LED lighting adds depth and dimension after dark. From path and step lights to uplighting specimen trees and architectural features, Teserra lighting plans create ambiance while improving safety and wayfinding.
For over four decades, Teserra has designed and built breathtaking outdoor retreats.
Southern California isn’t just a geographically defined region, it’s a way of life. And perhaps no swimming pool design company has done more to enhance that enviable lifestyle than Teserra, from Irvine and Orange County to Palm Springs and Coachella Valley. From that refreshing midnight dip on a warm summer night to that soothing soak on a sun-drenched afternoon in February, it’s a way of life worth celebrating.
Hardscaping That Defines Your Space
Paver Patios, Walkways & Driveways
Upgrade everyday surfaces with pavers that outperform poured concrete in style and serviceability. We craft patios for dining and lounging, elegant walkways that guide movement, and driveways that boost curb appeal. Expect tight lines, clean patterns, and a sub-base built to handle real life.
Retaining & Seat Walls
Solve grade changes and carve out usable square footage with retaining walls that double as design statements. Integrated seat walls add flexible seating for gatherings without cluttering the space with furniture.
Outdoor Kitchens, Fire Features & Shade
Host like a pro with built-in grills, prep space, refrigeration, and storage. Then extend the season with custom fire pits and fireplaces, which are perfect for Irvine evenings. For daytime comfort, we design pergolas and shade structures that cool hot zones and define rooms.
Water Features & Pools
From sleek, recirculating fountains to custom pool remodels and integrations, water can be the focal point that ties your landscape together. Our team coordinates finishes, coping, and adjacent hardscapes, so everything feels intentional and seamless.

Could not be more pleased! We started with the Teserra team before we even selected a property. Everyone on the Teserra team (John Hardwick, Brock Berry, and Jessie Martinez) plus all the providers they chose were wonderful.

Ryan Kindel at Teserra was very knowledgeable about my pool remodel. I had 7 bids and chose Teserra because Ryan Kindel was very informative about every aspect of my pool remodel more so than any of the other pool companies, and was able to work within my price range!!!
