About Us | Back In Shape Landscape

Back In Shape Landscape and Maintenance Corp. started as a small, family-led venture in the heart of the East Bay. Over sixteen years, our business has grown alongside the communities we serve, becoming a trusted partner for property owners who value expert care and honest relationships. Every project, from fine gardening to hardscape installation, reflects our commitment to careful detail and a promise to treat every yard as if it were our own. Our work is not just about service, but about building lasting trust and making sure every client feels like part of our extended family.

We work differently. At Back In Shape Landscape, our philosophy centers on stewardship. Our team brings professional licensing, regional knowledge, and a strong focus on quality to every home and commercial site we care for. Whether maintaining a historic Berkeley garden, installing new patios in Piedmont, or solving drainage issues in Orinda, our clients count on our deep local expertise and 24-hour response guarantee. We offer a single-source solution that covers everything: 3D design, plant selection, irrigation, lighting, and debris removal. Our bilingual team serves a diverse Bay Area, making communication easy and ensuring every detail is handled with care.

What makes us different is our blend of heritage and new ideas. Our licensed team provides more than just regular maintenance. Fine gardening, disease treatment, hand weeding, and seasonal plant care are handled with the same care as our hardscape projects: retaining walls, fencing, sod, and synthetic turf. With 3D design previews, clients can see their outdoor changes before work begins. Financing options and free estimates make it easier for families and realtors to get started. Our reputation is built on verified Yelp reviews, long-term client relationships, and a promise to never cut corners. From Lafayette to San Leandro, our work is seen in the gardens and patios that shape the Bay Area’s neighborhoods.
