We built this company on a simple idea: design and build under one roof, with one phone number that gets answered after the deposit. CSLB-licensed, 37 Google reviews, 4.9-star average, and the same crew lead on your project from blueprint to finished.
San Diego homeowners deserve a better experience than what most of the local market offers. The pattern we kept seeing — and the reason this company exists — is this: homeowners get quoted by a designer who can’t build, then bounced to a build crew who can’t design. Projects stretch six months. Quotes balloon 60%. Communication disappears after the deposit.
So we built the company that solves it. Owner Hank Dugan runs it from the office, not a jobsite. Designers and project managers in-house. W-2 crews on the ground — not subcontractors. One contract, one timeline, one phone number. Every quote we send is what the build crew will actually invoice you, because the build crew is us.
That’s the whole pitch. Everything else — the 5-year workmanship guarantee, the daily photo updates, the HOA submission packages we prepare for clients in Rancho Santa Fe and La Jolla and Coronado — comes from the same idea: accountability stops here, not three subcontractors deep.
Brand pillars sound corporate. These are practical commitments that translate to specific behavior on every project we run.
Landscape architecture, synthetic turf, pools, paving, concreting, masonry, pergolas, padel and pickleball courts, retaining walls, garden sheds — under one CSLB license. You don’t coordinate teams. We do.
Written quote, fixed timeline, daily photo updates, weekly check-ins, real warranty. If we made it complicated, we’d lose clients. So we don’t.
Built by San Diegans, for San Diego climates. 37 Google reviews. 4.9-star average. 100% reply rate. We’ve worked across the Covenant in Rancho Santa Fe, Aviara, La Jolla, Old Poway, and 15 more cities in San Diego County.
Big-job capability, small-team care. Our crew leads (like Fabian, who you’ll meet during the build) stay with your project from start to finish. We answer the phone after the check clears.
No call center. No bait-and-switch “senior designer” who hands you off after the consult. Here’s who runs the company and who runs your project.
Hank runs the company. He sees every quote before it goes out, signs off on every design, and personally answers escalations. His goal: make sure every San Diego homeowner who hires us would hire us again.
If a project goes sideways, his cell number is the one you’ll get.
Fabian leads our build crews on the ground. Mentioned by name in our Google reviews more than anyone else — including the synthetic turf restoration that earned us a 5-star review from Ken Groth last March.
W-2 employees. Same crew on your project from day one to walkthrough.
3D renderings, planting plans, hardscape elevations, HOA submission packages — produced by designers who sit two desks away from the build crews who’ll execute the plans.
That’s why our quotes are bid-ready, not aspirational.
Honest, current, verifiable. We update these quarterly. Last update: 2026.
We don’t franchise. We don’t expand to LA or Riverside or Orange County to chase revenue. This is home — we know the soil, the microclimates, the HOA committees, and the permitting offices. That’s why our designs work.
