Local context
Finishing Ellis backyards into yards you actually use
The builder leaves you with a slab, a fence, and a strip of dirt. Most Ellis homeowners spend the first year wondering when they'll get to the backyard. We get to it for them — usually 6 to 18 months after move-in, while the home is still under warranty and the dust hasn't settled.
Ellis lots run small to mid-size. That actually works in your favor — the budget stretches further, the install is faster, and the design can be more deliberate. Every plant earns its spot.
We pull the irrigation off the front-yard timer cleanly so back-yard zones don't fight your front-yard water schedule. Smart controllers. Drip on beds. Lawn area sized for how you actually use it.

FAQ
Ellis landscaping FAQ
Don't see your question? Call us. We pick up.
Can you finish the landscaping for my new Ellis home?
Yes. Ellis is one of the newer Tracy master-planned communities, and most homeowners are doing back-yard landscape after move-in. We design, install, and tie the new yard into the builder front-yard package.
How much does an Ellis backyard landscape cost?
A finished Ellis backyard — sod, irrigation, planting, edging, mulch — typically runs $9,000 to $24,000 depending on lot size and material choices. Adding hardscape (patio, walls, fire pit) brings the total higher; we quote both together.
What plants work in Ellis yards?
Ellis sees full Central Valley sun and clay soil. We lean on California natives, ornamental grasses, lavender, salvia, and tough flowering shrubs that hold up to summer heat without constant water. Trees like crepe myrtle and ginkgo do well.
Will Ellis HOA approve our landscape design?
Ellis has an architectural review process for landscape changes. We prepare the plant list, mulch and bed spec, and any irrigation notes the committee asks for so it clears review the first time around.
Do you handle ongoing maintenance for Ellis homes?
Yes. Recurring maintenance, weekly or bi-weekly, with the same crew on the same day. Mowing, edging, blowing, pruning, fertilization, seasonal cleanups. We keep the front yard HOA-tight.
