After weeks, months - even years - of thinking about it, deciding to transform your backyard is never a casual choice. It’s an emotional one.
Swimming pools and landscaping can transform any backyard into a private oasis—a place to relax, entertain, and enjoy the outdoors. A thoughtfully designed custom swimming pool and landscape can completely change how you experience your home. But turning that vision into reality can feel overwhelming. With so many design options, materials, and construction decisions involved in a custom pool and landscape project, knowing where to start isn’t always easy.
That’s where Alderland comes in.
For more than 43 years and over 1,100 completed projects, Alderland has been a trusted custom swimming pool and landscape design-build company serving the San Francisco Bay Area. We are known for creating beautiful outdoor living spaces through thoughtful design, expert construction, and a commitment to lasting quality.
Transforming your backyard is a major investment, and choosing the right pool and landscape designer makes all the difference. The right plan brings clarity, confidence, and excitement from the very beginning.
Every Alderland project starts with a professional design process that helps you clearly visualize your space—so you know exactly what to expect before construction begins.

“After 40 years the backyard and front yard were long overdue for a makeover. Don and his team at Alder Landscaping were incredible from start to finish. They communicated clearly at every stage, took our scattered ideas, and transformed the backyard into paradise. A special shoutout to Aaron, Israel, and Leo for all their hard work”.
