About Blue Oak Patio & Landscape
Our Mission
Blue Oak Patio & Landscape is not your typical landscape installation company. Founded in 2018, Blue Oak was started with the belief that a landscape company can do something more impactful than simply install pretty plants and pavers.
How we do it? Our well-designed landscapes and patios, and our attention to detail during installation, creates spaces for people to live the lives they want to live. Our professional interaction, careful attention to the desires of the homeowner, and striving to provide service that goes above and beyond creates a total experience that you will not get from any other contractor. We treat all our employees with respect, pay them a fair wage, and encouraging constant self-improvement opportunities. The Earth is our canvas, so we constantly strive to improve how we care for the environment and to become a more sustainable company. Additionally, we donate 1% of our proceeds and time to help those who struggle with food security.
Whether it is for a paver patio for entertaining, improved curb appeal, or a comprehensive plan for your property, we focus on creating unique solutions that fit your needs. Our two designers have a combined 25+ years of experience and stay on top of the latest trends, plants, and hardscape materials. Our installation crews have many years of experience in the field and take an artistic craftsman approach on each project. We do things the right way so that you can be sure your project will stand the test of time.
We look forward to earning your trust and helping you to create new “Spaces for Life” as we work together to make your world and ours a little bit better place.
