High-End Landscaping in Los Altos, CA
Del Conte’s M&H Landscape Construction was founded in 1972 and specializes in high-end residential landscape design and construction. We are not a mow-and-blow service. Our team plans and builds complete outdoor environments for Los Altos homeowners: landscape design, construction, outdoor living, hardscape, irrigation, drainage and lighting, all coordinated by one team.
Designing Landscapes for Los Altos Homes
Larger Los Altos lots give room for complete outdoor environments: a front garden and entry that set the tone for the home, and a backyard with distinct areas for dining, lounging, play and gardening. Many of our Los Altos projects include outdoor kitchens, fire features, sport courts or lawn areas, all tied together by hardscape and planting that feel cohesive.
With many homes being rebuilt or extensively remodeled, landscape work is often coordinated with new construction. We plan grading, drainage, irrigation and lighting infrastructure alongside the build so that the finished landscape performs as well as it looks.
