Southbay Design & Landscaping
Southbay Design & Landscaping has been building premier landscapes in the Bay Area since 2007, with owner and head contractor Matt Mueller leading the team. The company is a fully licensed California C-27 landscape contractor under Contractor License #894036 and states that it is licensed, bonded, and insured. Every project starts with a design, and the in-house design process moves through site analysis, conceptual layouts, 3D rendering, plant and material selection, and final construction documents so homeowners can walk through the yard before anything is built. Construction covers site demolition and clearing, grading and drainage, paver patios and natural flagstone walkways, engineered retaining walls, custom wood pergolas, arbors and pavilions, gas fire pits and outdoor fireplaces, recirculating waterfalls, pondless streams and courtyard fountains, irrigation, California native plant installation, and outdoor lighting. The team also offers ongoing maintenance including fine pruning, organic weed treatment, seasonal fertilizing and planting, and annual mulch service, and it builds landscapes throughout the year.
