About Ground Up Outdoors

Two Decades Shaping Southern California Landscapes

Ground Up Outdoors is a family-owned landscape firm headquartered in Alta Loma, California. For more than two decades we have designed, built, and maintained outdoor spaces across the Inland Empire and greater Southern California — from Rancho Cucamonga estates and Upland HOAs to municipal grounds, retail centers, and business-park campuses across San Bernardino and Riverside counties.

Our model is intentionally simple: a single bonded team handles design, installation, and ongoing maintenance, so the people who draw the plan are the same people who plant, prune, irrigate, and follow up on it. That continuity is why most of our work comes from referrals and from clients who have stayed with us for ten and fifteen years running.

We work with the SoCal climate instead of against it. That means drought-tolerant plant palettes that thrive in clay and decomposed-granite soils, efficient drip and rotor irrigation tuned to your zoning and slope, low-water turf alternatives that pass MWD restrictions while still looking finished, and shade-tree placement chosen for long-term canopy and root behavior.

Six Reasons Clients Stay With Us

24/7 Emergency Service

Storm damage, broken main lines, downed limbs, irrigation flooding at 11 p.m. — call any hour and a licensed crew is dispatched. Stocked emergency trucks mean first response and first repair often happen on the same visit.

Free Estimates

A landscape pro walks the property with you, scopes the work, photographs problem areas, and sends a written, line-item estimate within one business day. No site-visit fees, no obligation.

Upfront Pricing

Every task and material is itemized and approved before a tool comes off the truck. Change orders are documented and signed before work begins. The estimate is the invoice.

Experienced Crews

What Clients Are Saying

Trusted Across Southern California

Real reviews from homeowners, HOA boards, and property managers across the Inland Empire.

01

Ground Up rebuilt our front yard after a failed irrigation install from another company. The estimate was clear, the crew showed up when they said they would, and the new drip system has cut our water bill noticeably. The lead foreman walked me through every adjustment before they left. Easy recommendation.

02

We manage a 60-unit HOA in Rancho Cucamonga and have used three landscape companies in five years. Ground Up is the first one that actually communicates — monthly walk-throughs, photo updates, zero surprise charges. The grounds have never looked better.

03

A windstorm took down a large eucalyptus on our property in Upland and we needed it cleared the same weekend. Ground Up answered after-hours, had a crew on-site by morning, and finished the cleanup before Monday. Professional all the way through.
