If you are under the plan for new landscaping, you must check with Hills landscaping.
I found this company from yelp and compared it with multiple quotes and decided to work with Hills landscaping. Here are the pros and cons and why you need to consider this company.
Pros :
1. Contract: I heard many landscaping projects are hard due to lack of contract and payment issues. When I got the first quote from Hills landscaping, they provide 6 pages of quotes, contract details including warranty, payment plan, etc. It has all the details in the contract and both need to sign to start the project so it can protect the company and myself.
2. Payment: this company provides a payment plan with 5-7 payments. Also, I pay when one of the work is finished. No need to worry about any payment plan.
3. Diligent: They start work from the first day we contract and every day they worked except when it is rain and material was not available. They contact me every day in the morning when they cannot work due to rain or material issues so I do not need to worry about they are working or not.
4. Professional: All the workers are professional and knowledgeable so when I ask any worker about the process, material, I can get the answer. I asked for some modification and it is always considered during the project and I love the final landscaping that we have.
5. Communications: From the quote request to the final walkthrough, I communicate with Hills landscaping with 90 emails, more than 15 times call. Most of the time, I can get the answer in a few hours and not any case over the one day to get the response. They even contact me on weekends so I was impressed with their communication.
6. Quality: We love the new paving, fence, retaining wall, putting green!. See the result in the attached photos.
7. Antonio!! : Antonio and Fermin are a great team to make our project.
Cons :
1. Only I had a problem was the schedule when we can start. They are super busy so they asked me to wait 2 months but luckily we can start work early. I think it is like the famous restaurants that you need to wait in line to have good service and good food. Plan it early and get the quote and schedule with this company! -
Highly recommend Antonio and his team. The quote was fair and the work was top notch. They installed two retaining walls and decomposed granite, as well as plants and drip system. Communication was quick and clear from the office and the workers are super respectful and clean cut. After the work was done and the bill was paid, we had a few small concerns and Hills returned to help us out, which we feel says a lot. Antonio and his team go above and beyond.

Antonio, Fermin, and Epifanio (foreman), were such a great team to work with. They did an amazing job on our large multi yard renovation, including a pergola. They accommodated many changes and we're very quick to respond to the hundreds of questions. Epifanio and the crew were amazing at what they do. Super thoughtful as well. Price was very competitive with 5 others we spoke to.

Hills Landscaping recently finished our lovely front yard.
We decided to hire Hills Landscaping based on their positive reviews and reasonable prices. Initially, we didn’t know what to expect due to previous bad experiences with other contractors. However, when Antonio visited for the second time, all our questions were answered, some minor earlier miscommunication was resolved, and we were ready to proceed.
Throughout the project, everything went smoothly. Antonio and his team were professional, flexible, and easy to communicate with. We made some changes during the project, and Antonio made it hassle-free for us. Leo and Eduardo did an outstanding job transforming our front yard.
We also received valuable assistance from their designer, Nop, regarding plant placement. Although we didn’t use their designer for the entire project, their input was helpful.
Antonio’s experience and recommendations were invaluable. For instance, he suggested adding a dark dirt cover to an unfinished part of the yard without charging us. Unlike some other contractors, Antonio doesn’t nickel-and-dime clients when changes are needed. His attention to detail truly made a difference in our landscaping project.
Antonio and the entire Hills Landscaping team, thank you! Working with you was a pleasure. You made it stress-free, and transformed our front yard into one of the nicest in the neighborhood. Your customer-focused approach is truly appreciated. Unlike some contractors who prioritize profits over quality work, you truly stand out. Keep up the great work! -
Incredible experience working with Hills!!! Our before and after pictures are attached.
They completely transformed our backyard, front yard, and city trees area to an oasis that we enjoy using everyday. They did pavers, a paver wall, stepping stones, a custom arch, planting, placed boulders, lights, drip lines/rainwater features, and more. All together, demolished the preexisting mess of our fixer upper yard and remodeled the front yard, back yard, side yards, and city strips. Antonio made sure to oversee the project, communicate with us, and fix any issues that occurred which can occur with any contractor project. Antonio also made favorable changes and suggestions to landscape design we acquired before Hills. This included optimizing backyard space for entertainment / seating as well as adding an amazing rock river and hill I can't imagine not having now that it has been completed. They also suggested and added a rock to our front yard that really completes the look.
A lead, Alberto, was also great on the job and really helped the project come together. Also, the main office is very responsive and helpful in communicating with us and the team.
When our window company miscommunicated with Hills regarding heights needed for permits on our back door landing they wanted to hire someone else to fix the work. We refused the window company's suggestion and asked Hills to make the changes / communicate with the window company to pass inspection. We did not trust anyone else for the project and are happy they completed the work.
Excellent warranty as they will fix any pavers / work. Due to shifting soil common in the bay we will all need pavers to be adjusted over the years so this is great. They will also replace any cracks in pavers overtime.
The majority of the work was completed about a year ago and everything still looks great! I would recommend this company to anyone wanting to complete any backyard remodel after we used them for all soft and hardscape. A couple people in our neighborhood have already told us they are using this company after seeing our yard. -
Hills Landscaping was selected by us after reviewing 3 other proposals. Right from initial interaction we found Antonio (Founder) and Erica (Office) to be on top of their communications. When we explained our plan they immediately understood the scope and quickly went on quoting process. They allowed flexibility and helped us complete the project on time. Hugo Avila as their manager was very diligent and knowledgeable. He explained the cost updates as it happens with any project. But at the end of the day, we are happy with their personnel and workmanship and would offer to provide a reference any day!

This was one of the best experiences I've had with contractors. Great work, on time, cleaned up, courteous employees, flexible with changes. Highly competitive prices and large crews. They own their equipment and trucks, and don't need to sub parts of the job out. Plus, even though a large firm, you get to deal with the owner, Antonio, all the time. He was always reachable. Plus, the office staff ( especially Erica) was top-notch. You won't regret contacting Hills Landscaping.

I never write reviews - but my experience with Hills Landscaping warrants the effort.
Context: Hills Landscaping completely transformed our front and backyard.
This is a MAJOR shoutout to Antonio (the project manager), his team and Erica (office / admin).
Antonio and the rest of the team were amazing to work with because:
1.) Pricing: Their prices were incredibly fair if not the best price offered from the 5 or 6 different quotes I received.
2.) Professionalism: The team always came on time, were very respectful and always cleaned up after themselves.
3.) Flexibility: I can't tell you how many times I changed my mind or decided to expand on the project. Antonio has the patience of a saint and was always accommodating and worked with me to get exactly what I wanted.
4.) Responsiveness: Both Antonio and Erica are incredibly responsive. Never once did they miss a meeting or take longer than 24 hours to respond to a message.
5.) Expertise: I relied a lot on Antonio's opinion and experience when designing my front and backyard. He has a great eye for detail and he doesn't pressure you to go one way or another.
We loved working with Antonio and his team so much we actually even signed up for them to do our monthly maintenance.
Trust me - as someone who is risk averse and very picky - you cannot go wrong with Hill's Landscaping -
Hills Landscaping just completed a landscape job for my client/friend. They completely transformed the backyard into a resort-feel paradise. They provided both the design and installation.
The homeowner made a bunch of revisions during the process. Hills Landscaping delivered everything they wanted. They are prompt, neat, professional, do excellent quality work, and were really responsive to their client's desires. From Erica at the home office, to Antonio, the owner, they are excellent people.
I help my clients design and build high-end custom homes in the Atherton, Los Altos Hills area. I get to work with very professional trades. Hills Landscape ranks highly among the people I have worked with.
I rarely do on-line reviews. In this case, they really earned their five-star ratings. -
Outstanding Experience with Hills Landscaping!
I cannot recommend Hills Landscaping highly enough! We did full backyard landscape (~5000sqft) with Hills Landscaping. Pergola, Concrete, Paver, Artificial Turf. From start to finish, working with Antonio, Hugo, and their entire team was an absolute pleasure and, frankly, the best contractor experience I've had to date – and I've worked with many, both big and small.
Right from our first interaction, they were incredibly nice and genuinely listened to every single detail of what I envisioned for my landscape project.
Beyond their fantastic communication, their professionalism on-site was truly remarkable. They were meticulously neat and clean every single day, leaving the work area tidy before they left. Punctuality was also a non-issue; they consistently arrived promptly at 7:30 AM, ready to start.
It was also a huge advantage that they came fully equipped with their own mini loader/excavator and other necessary machinery.
Thank you very much Hills Landscaping! -
I can’t say enough great things about Hills Landscaping Company and especially Hugo Avila who served as our project manager. From start to finish, the experience was absolutely outstanding. From the front office to the field workers-Awesome!
Hugo provided excellent service every step of the way. The project was completed on time as promised, and we received daily updates so we always knew exactly where things stood. What truly set him apart was the level of detail in his explanations — he walked us through each stage of the process, clearly outlining procedures, timelines, and what to expect. There were no surprises, just thoughtful planning and consistent follow-through.
The final results went above and beyond our expectations. The craftsmanship, attention to detail, and overall transformation of our space exceeded what we envisioned. Hugo also took the time to present cost-saving options without ever compromising quality, which we greatly appreciated.
Another major plus was how seamlessly he handled coordination with the city for permits and inspections. He worked directly with city officials and inspectors, making the entire process smooth and stress-free for us.
Communication was top-tier throughout the project. Hugo was responsive, transparent, and proactive. Beyond his professionalism, he’s simply a great person — he even shared stories about his family and kids, which made the whole experience feel personal and genuine.
If you’re looking for a landscaping company that delivers exceptional results, stays on schedule, communicates clearly, and truly cares about their clients, I highly recommend Hills Landscaping Company and Hugo as your project manager. You won’t be disappointed.
