Looking for a seamless landscaping experience from start to finish? EcoLawn offers full-service design-build landscaping across Santa Barbara, Montecito, Goleta, and the Santa Ynez Valley—from initial concept to final construction.
Unlike traditional contractors who only handle installation, we provide both professional landscape design and expert construction. That means one team, one streamlined process, and a final product that reflects both form and function. Whether you need a modern outdoor retreat, a drought-conscious garden, or a fully integrated backyard with smart irrigation, fencing, and lighting, we’ve got it covered. Check out our portfolio here and let the work speak for itself.
