In Southern California, water is more precious than ever. As droughts continue to affect communities across the region, local homeowners are faced with a common challenge: how to maintain a beautiful yard without draining their wallets—or the planet’s resources. The good news? You can have both. At Save Aqua Landscapes, we help Inland Empire homeowners create smart, stylish outdoor spaces that save water, lower maintenance costs, and boost curb appeal.
It all starts with understanding that traditional grass simply doesn’t work in our climate anymore. Between watering restrictions, hot temperatures, and high utility bills, it’s more of a liability than a feature. That’s why we offer premium artificial grass installation —a long-lasting, low-maintenance solution that looks and feels just like the real thing. Our turf products are pet-friendly, UV-resistant, and built to withstand high foot traffic. Whether you want a front lawn that always looks freshly mowed, or a safe play area for the kids, artificial grass is the way to go. It eliminates mud, weeds, and mowing—all while keeping your yard lush 365 days a year.
But artificial turf is just the beginning. One of the fastest-growing trends in eco-friendly landscaping is the use of decorative rock to replace thirsty lawns and fragile flowerbeds. At Save Aqua Landscapes, we install a wide variety of rock types—from soft-toned pea gravel to bold, lava rock accents. Decorative rock serves both a functional and aesthetic purpose. It minimizes erosion, controls weeds, reduces maintenance, and adds eye-catching texture to your landscape. Use it around trees, between pavers, or as a base for raised planter beds—it’s incredibly versatile and lasts for decades with no upkeep.
Looking to create a beautiful outdoor living space?
Pavers are the go-to option for building patios, walkways, and driveways that stand the test of time. We specialize in custom paver installation that fits your style and budget. Whether you're into modern clean lines or rustic stone finishes, we have the tools and know-how to bring your vision to life. Unlike poured concrete, pavers won’t crack easily, and individual pieces can be replaced if needed. They're also permeable, which helps reduce stormwater runoff—another win for the environment. Our team ensures precise leveling, expert compaction, and a perfect finish every time.
For a natural look that still supports walkability and usability, decomposed granite (DG) is a must. It’s a compacted stone that gives your landscape a soft, earthy appearance without sacrificing function. Use it for garden paths, sitting areas, fire pit surrounds, or between pavers for a more organic feel. DG drains well, resists erosion, and provides a clean finish that pairs beautifully with rock, turf, and native plants. At Save Aqua Landscapes, we expertly install DG surfaces that are long-lasting and safe for walking, even after heavy use.
And let’s not forget concrete —the classic backbone of hardscaping. We pour everything from clean concrete slabs to custom stamped patios and colored walkways. Whether you need a new driveway, a solid base for your outdoor furniture, or modern edging around your garden beds, concrete delivers strength, style, and versatility. Our concrete work is clean, professional, and designed to enhance your overall landscape while keeping it functional and low-maintenance.
All of these elements come together to create landscapes that are not only drought-tolerant, but stunning and sustainable. We design with intention—making sure every material, color, and layout works in harmony with your home and the Southern California climate. From the front yard to the backyard, we help you reimagine your space so it works with the environment, not against it.
The story behind Save Aqua Landscapes goes back to one thing: the drought. Moises Perez, founder and local landscape professional, saw firsthand how brown, patchy lawns were dragging down neighborhoods and increasing stress for homeowners. That’s when he created a business with a mission—to help families save water and improve curb appeal without breaking the bank. That passion drives every project we take on today, and it shows in the details of our work.
We proudly serve the Inland Empire, including Rancho Cucamonga, Ontario, Upland, Claremont, Fontana, Rialto, Riverside, San Bernardino, Chino, Chino Hills, La Verne, San Dimas, and Glendora.
