What we do
One crew for the whole yard
From the first sketch to the last plant, the same team handles the landscaping, the hardscape and the concrete, so nothing falls between two contractors.
Artificial turf
Synthetic lawns, putting greens and play areas, plus turf strips between pavers and concrete.
Pavers & stone
Interlocking pavers, brick, stone and flagstone for patios, walkways, steps and driveways.
Concrete
Patios, walks and steps, stamped and colored concrete, concrete walls, floors and foundations.
Retaining walls & drainage
Retaining walls, brick, stone and block walls, and yard drainage that moves water away from the house.
Irrigation
New lawn and garden sprinkler systems for homes and commercial properties.
Maintenance & tree trimming
Where Del Mar started in 1993: regular yard maintenance, and trimming for large trees like ficus.
Commercial properties
Landscaping, sprinklers, pavers, stamped concrete and turf for businesses and commercial developments.

Taking the backyard from dirt to a beautiful landscaped outdoor living space was the project. … NO hassles, NO headaches, NO surprises – Just good honest business.
Conrad was so helpful and honest and thorough. … Would recommend them to anyone.
The team was fast, friendly professional, and gave a great price. They did an amazing job! I highly recommend for any of your landscaping needs.
Conrad was a pleasure to work with. Through out the project he maintained great communication and follow through. The work was completed on time and on budget.
Del Mar Landscaping has done various landscaping and construction jobs for us over the years, and we are always impressed by the results and so are our neighbors.
The backyard looks and functions much better than before and, most importantly, the drainage system works well to channel rain and run off away from our home.

Questions
Long Beach landscaping questions
Permits, parkways, rebates and timing, answered from the City of Long Beach and state rules. Checked October 2026. Rules change, so ask us about your project on the free estimate.
Do I need a permit for a retaining wall in Long Beach?
Usually not for a wall up to 4 feet tall, measured from the bottom of the footing to the top of the wall, as long as it is not holding back sloping soil or extra load. Walls taller than that, walls holding back a slope, and any retaining wall built on a slope steeper than 1:5 (20%) need a building permit from the City. If you are not sure about your wall, ask us on the free estimate.

Do I need a permit for a new patio, walkway or driveway?
Private concrete or paver walkways, patios and driveways up to 30 inches above the ground do not need a building permit in Long Beach, but patio covers do. Work in the street is different: replacing a driveway approach like-for-like is a minor Public Works permit, and a new or widened approach (curb cut) needs engineered plans.

Can I put artificial turf in my parkway?
Not under current Long Beach rules. The parkway, the strip between the sidewalk and the curb, has to be planted mainly with live plants: groundcover up to 8 inches tall, shrubs up to 32 inches and street trees. Decomposed granite, mulch or pavers set on sand are allowed on less than half of it. Artificial turf is fine in your front yard, just not in the parkway.

Will Long Beach pay me to replace my lawn?
Long Beach Utilities runs a Lawn to Garden program that helps pay to replace living front-yard grass with a water-wise garden, plus new trees and design fees. You need living grass to qualify, the design has to be approved before work starts, and neither the City program nor the regional SoCal Water$mart program pays for artificial turf. Rebate amounts change, so check Long Beach Utilities for the current rate before you tear anything out.

When is the best time to plant in Long Beach?
Long Beach averages about 12 inches of rain a year, and roughly 80% of it falls from December through March. Summers are almost completely dry, about two-tenths of an inch from June through September. Planting in fall lets new plants root in with the winter rain, and anything planted in spring needs steady drip irrigation through its first summer.
Are you licensed?
Yes. Del Mar Landscaping holds California contractor license #904584 with the C-27 Landscaping and C-8 Concrete classifications. You can look it up on the Contractors State License Board site by entering 904584. In California, any job of $1,000 or more, or any job that needs a permit, must be done by a licensed contractor.
