SWIFT/LANDSCAPING

When the yard gets away from you.

Weeds through the beds. Hedges swallowing the windows. A lawn that gave up two summers ago. We clear it, cut it back, and hand you back a yard you can actually keep up with. Santa Cruz County.

No judgment about how bad it got. Most yards we start on look worse than yours.

The same front yard after: dark mulch beds either side of the walkway, planted borders along the house.
A front yard before work: dry patchy grass and weeds on both sides of the walkway.

What we do

Most jobs start with a reset. After that, it's your call whether we keep coming back.

Yard revival

The big one-time reset. Front, back, side yards and everything along the fence line.

  • Overgrowth and weed clearing, down to bare ground where needed
  • Shrub, hedge and small tree cutback
  • Ivy, blackberry, bamboo and vine removal
  • Bed edging, cleanup and fresh mulch
  • Green waste stacked where you want it — hauling available for an added fee

One or two days of real work usually turns a yard nobody wants to look at into one that takes an hour a month to hold.

Keeping it that way

Regular visits on a set schedule — weekly, every other week, or monthly. Mowing, edging, blowing, hedge trimming, weeding the beds, and clippings bagged for your green bin. Same crew, same day, no chasing anybody down.

Small installs

The finishing touches once a yard is cleared: mulch and gravel conversions, a few plants going in, stepping stones, a small path, a bed reshaped.

Bigger builds — irrigation systems, retaining walls, full redesigns — we'll point you to a licensed contractor we trust, and stay on for the upkeep.

How it goes

No appointment, no waiting around for someone to show up. You never have to be home.

1

Show us the yard

Text or email photos, and your address. A slow video walk-around tells us more than stills — turn the phone toward the fence line and the corners nobody goes into.

2

Or walk us around live

If it's easier to show than to photograph, set up a FaceTime or WhatsApp video and give us the tour in real time. Ten minutes, from wherever you are, and you never have to be home for it.

3

Price the same day

You get a written price by text or email, usually within a few hours. If something can't be judged from video — a steep slope, a gate we may not fit through, debris under the growth — we say so and quote a range rather than guess.

4

Revival day

We show up when we said we would and work until it's done — usually one or two days. Everything we cut gets stacked wherever you want it, ready for your green bin.

5

Pick a rhythm

Weekly, biweekly or monthly upkeep so it never gets back to where it started. Or don't — the reset stands on its own.

Recent work

Big jobs make a big pile. Your green bin will handle it over a few weeks, or we can haul it all off in one trip — priced separately, just ask.
