While we might not all want a giant T. rex in our front yard, El Paso homeowners know that a great yard represents you. That’s why choosing the right landscaper is important.
And in our desert climate, the “best” landscapers are the ones who understand how to make a yard look lush without draining the city’s water supply. And surprisingly, those landscapers can be pretty hard to find.
But don’t worry, we’ve done the hard work for you. We found the best landscapers in El Paso who can help turn a dusty patch of dirt into a place you actually want to spend your Sunday afternoons in!
How much does it cost to hire a landscaper in El Paso?
Hiring a landscaper in El Paso costs at least $50 an hour. This price is just an estimate. The actual cost will depend on the landscaper, services needed, and more.
1. JDM Landscape
Contact Details: +19156676864
Operating Hours:
- Monday to Friday – 8 AM to 6 PM
- Saturday – 9 AM to 2 PM
JDM Landscape stood out to us because they act like a one-stop shop for literally anything people could want in a backyard. They don’t just stop at plants. They handle the heavy work, such as stone veneer and outdoor kitchens.
Many clients we talked to told us they love how the team can seamlessly move from one task to another, whether it’s installing a stamped concrete patio or building a custom pergola without needing to call in outside help.
We also think it’s great that they handle landscaping projects of any size, from tiny fixes to total yard makeovers.
Homeowners consistently praise their creative, desert-friendly designs, which combine local rocks and hardy plants to reduce water bills.
We also think their ability to mix soft artificial lawns with rugged rock walls makes them very flexible.
We just wish they’d give their customers a heads-up when they arrive. A few customers mentioned they would have appreciated a text before they arrived.
Absolutely impressed with this landscaping company!
“Absolutely impressed with this landscaping company! They transformed my front yard and made it look better than I imagined. The team was professional, on time, and paid attention to every detail. Great communication with Mr. Jose throughout the entire process, and the quality of the work from his team really shows. Highly recommend them to anyone looking to upgrade their yard!”

The money spent was well worth it.
“JDM was brought up to us by our home builder and also someone in our neighborhood whose landscaping we admired. We were advised by our builder that it may take a while for them to landscape our yards, as they are usually busy in the summer months. Daniel came by and gave us ideas for our front and back yard, and gave us an estimate. After that, there was a bit of some miscommunication, but after bringing it up to Daniel, there were no problems. Daniel was very polite and handled everything very professionally and as well as making sure we were happy with the results. Him and his crew were proficient, considerate, professional, and exemplary at their job. They completed their work on time as well as cleaned everything up. I would highly recommend them as they are worth it. Comparing their work to other landscapers in the neighborhood, made us realize that the time waiting and the money spent was well worth it.”

2. SP & LC Sprinklers and Landscape Contractors
Address: 840 Redd Rd #1C, El Paso, TX 79912, United States
Contact Details: +19157926169
Operating Hours: Monday to Saturday – 7 AM to 5 PM
SP & LC Sprinklers and Landscape Contractors’ focus on safety in commercial landscaping in El Paso really won us over. They actively look for hazards such as tripping hazards or branches that could hit power lines.
Many local business owners we spoke with appreciated that the team goes beyond basic lawn care. They take over tasks like air blowing and weed control to keep storefronts looking sharp.
We also appreciate that their team handles the dirty work, like fertilization and edging, so their customers don’t have to worry.
They also do landscape design for El Paso homes, which is a big plus. We found it impressive that they operate through every season, even when the weather is inclement.
But their high-end custom designs aren’t exactly cheap. A few people told us that while their custom landscape designs were perfect, the final bill was significantly higher than for basic mowers.
Very happy with the results of my property
Very happy with the results of my property Landscaping from SPLC They were great in advice and vision, the crew executed the work with meticulous attention to detail, From the initial consultation to the final clean-up, their professionalism and communication were top-notch. I could not be happier and highly recommend them to anyone looking for top level landscaping services. I Will work with them in the future.

You can’t find a better company to do the job than SP & LC
I had a very inefficient sprinkler system that was costing me money on repairs and water bills. Contacted SP & LC to assess my problem and come up with a plan to get me what I needed. They removed my old system, installed a completely new system that runs beautifully. Their crew was prompt and efficient. They left my yard better than it was (they even included a little landscaping). If you want real pros to solve your sprinkler problems and give you peace of mind, you can’t find a better company to do the job than SP & LC.

3. Old West El Paso Construction
Address: 7362 Remcon Cir
Contact Details: +19152178471
Operating Hours: Monday to Friday – 8 AM to 5 PM
Old West El Paso Construction made our list for its high-tech approach to communication and updates. We appreciate that they keep customers in the loop without requiring them to call five times.
We also think it’s impressive how they focus on hardscaping projects like massive rock walls and outdoor kitchens. One client we interviewed appreciated that their landscaper ensured every detail was correct in their stone wall.
Plus, they offer ongoing support even after the project is complete, so customers aren’t left on their own if a stone comes loose.
When we looked into the artificial turfs they’ve done, they looked very realistic. We think this is primarily because Old West really uses top-tier materials for residential landscaping in El Paso.
However, they are not always available. We heard from a few locals who tried to book them for a basic lawn touch-up, but the team was mostly booked with large-scale landscape work.
Javier and his team did a wonderful job
“Javier and his team did a wonderful job with the desert landscaping project we wanted in front of our house. They worked with us to design water catchment that will be functional when we receive our monsoon rains. His staff was clean and courteous and when two plants didn’t establish due to our high spring winds they were quick to come out and replace them. We would not hesitate to use them again!”

Javier and his team were great!
“Javier and his team were great! We heard horror stories from our friends that some landscaping projects can take up to 6 months from other companies but Old West El Paso Construction was efficient and fast. They completed our yard exactly how we wanted it in under a month. Javier is very communicative and was willing to work with me to get our yard exactly how we envisioned.”

4. Flores Concrete and Landscaping
Address: 14140 Buffalo Bill Dr
Contact Details: +19152280244
Operating Hours:
- Monday to Friday – 7 AM to 5 PM
- Saturday – 9 AM to 5 PM
Flores Concrete and Landscaping caught our attention for the personal touch of its owner, Jorge Flores. It’s not every day customers get a one-on-one consultation with the boss to talk about their budget and 3D renderings.
We think these 3D renderings are great for people who have a hard time visualizing how a new yard will look. They help clients become more confident with their decisions.
A few of the clients we interviewed appreciated that Jorge walked them through their itemized estimate and allowed them to make revisions until the price was exactly where they needed it.
We also appreciate how the team cares for existing yards as well as new builds. Homeowners often note that the crew is always incredibly fast and tidies up after themselves.
On the downside, they can be a bit slow to return the initial phone call. A few people told us it took a few days to schedule the first consultation.
They turned my vision into reality
“I recently hired Flores Concrete and Landscaping for a complete landscaping project, including my front yard, courtyard and backyard. They transformed my space far beyond my expectations.
From the start, their team was professional, responsive, and detail-oriented. They followed a design I drew myself for my front landscaping that perfectly complements my home’s look. In the backyard, they built a stunning pool area, an outdoor shower and restroom, an outdoor kitchen, and a cozy fire pit space, all of which have become the centerpiece for family gatherings and entertaining friends.
The quality of their work is top-notch, with careful attention to detail in both construction and finishing. They stayed on schedule, communicated clearly throughout the process, and delivered exactly what was promised. They would even send me pictures of detailed material they were going to purchase to ask my take on it before they would even buy material. That little gesture to me is everything. They made my experience feel personal. I’ve had so many compliments already, and I couldn’t be happier with the results.
I highly recommend Flores Concrete and Lanscaping to anyone looking for landscaping or outdoor living projects. They turned my vision into reality and created a space my family and I will enjoy for years to come. Thank you!!!”
- Justin Vasquez Google Reviews
Thank you so much, Jorge and Karen!
“Extremely Satisfied!
I am so glad I found Flores Concrete and Landscaping. They did concrete work, rockscaping, installed artificial grass and built a couple of pergolas. They were so impressive that I hired them again to build a shed and install some pool handrails. These guys are true professionals. Their prices are very suitable, their work is amazing, and they are very punctual and responsive. The only slightly bad thing is that they are so good that they’re schedule is very busy. But let me tell you, I’d rather a company let me know they won’t be able to start for another 3 or 4 months instead of them starting right away and then just leaving the project for many weeks without doing anything. So remember to reserve your work early. They simply require 10% deposit. Flores Landscaping was well worth the wait. Thank you so much, Jorge and Karen!”

5. Idea Jardin USA
Address: 4150 Rio Bravo St #113
Contact Details: +19152727332
Operating Hours: Monday to Friday – 8:30 AM to 3:30 PM
Idea Jardin stands out because of their no project too small attitude. While some companies only want the big commercial contracts, these guys are just as happy to fix up a small backyard garden.
One homeowner who just wanted a simple, timeless look for her front yard said Idea Jardin delivered a clean design that didn’t look cluttered.
Customer service is great too. When we called in, someone answered right away and patiently answered all our questions.
They handle both residential landscaping and commercial jobs with the same level of patience and care. Many business owners told us that the team was on time, every time.
Their 2D landscape plans help give an overall visual of what to expect too, and a price quote right away. However, a few people we spoke with wished they had more itemized breakdowns rather than a single overall value.
Great people – great team. Contact Efren to receive a quotation.
“Idea Jardin’s team of highly skilled professionals did an outstanding job of partnering with us on transitioning from real sod to artificial grass. JP was diligent in his role as Project Manager and Communicator. Jose acts as Crew Chief and general problem solver if anything unexpected occurs. Benjamin is a specialist with the Bobcat loader used for ground preparation. Juan leads the final installation of the actual turf and does the closing polish on the overall job. This team delivers exactly what they commit to deliver, and they do so on budget and on time. You could not ask for a better “contractor” if you are looking to have a great job done in a timely manner and without any additional costs outside of their original contract. It was a job “truly well done.” I think it was “Carlos” who coordinated the materials and equipment coordination. Alejandro handled video tracking and verification of the job. Great people – great team. Contact Efren to receive a quotation.”

I was very pleased with the installation of the landscape
“I was very pleased with the installation of the landscape plan and the end product is beautiful. The Idea Jardin team was professional, courteous and knowledgeable. They worked closely with the architecture firm and were responsive to my questions and requests. The work site was kept neat throughout the project. The team was prompt and kept me informed about work schedule. I highly recommend Idea Jardin. “
