San Mateo County

Hardscape & Landscape Contractor
Serving All of San Mateo County

San Mateo County sits at the heart of the San Francisco Peninsula, home to some of California's highest property values and most discerning homeowners. Souza & Son's Inc brings CSLB-licensed (#1075979) hardscape and landscape expertise to every Peninsula community.

Paver Installation on the Peninsula

Premium paver driveways, entry courtyards, pool decks, and patios are signature features of San Mateo County's high-value residential market. Our Peninsula paver installations use engineered sub-base systems designed for the county's varied soil conditions. We pull all required building permits through each Peninsula city's building department.

Retaining Walls for Peninsula Hillside Properties

San Mateo County's topography rises sharply from the Bay flatlands to the Santa Cruz Mountains, creating hillside residential neighborhoods requiring engineered retaining walls. Our crews build wall systems compliant with the San Mateo County Grading Regulations.

Artificial Turf & Synthetic Grass Across the Peninsula

San Mateo County homeowners have access to multiple water conservation rebate programs including SFPUC, Cal Water, and BAWSCA. Our synthetic grass installations permanently eliminate ongoing water and maintenance costs while delivering a premium-quality, pet-safe outdoor surface.

Pool Removal Services Across San Mateo County

Aging swimming pools are common throughout San Mateo County's older residential neighborhoods. Souza & Son's manages every permit and inspection as part of the removal package.
