Xeriscaping/Drought-Tolerant Landscaping
A low-water landscape redesign — drought-tolerant plants, mulch, and hardscape instead of thirsty lawn — cuts water use while still looking intentional and attractive. NorTech connects you with a vetted local provider for the design, removal, and planting.
Xeriscaping and drought-tolerant landscaping across the Bay Area
Replacing a water-hungry lawn with drought-tolerant plants and hardscape is one of the most effective ways to cut outdoor water use without sacrificing curb appeal. NorTech connects you with a background-checked provider who designs a layout suited to your space and style, removes existing lawn or plants as needed, installs drought-tolerant planting, and finishes with mulch or rock ground cover.
Designing a xeriscape that still looks intentional
A well-designed drought-tolerant landscape uses layering, texture, and seasonal color from California natives and Mediterranean-climate plants to look as considered as a traditional garden — the difference between xeriscaping done well and a yard that just looks neglected is entirely in the design. The consultation is where that planning happens before anything is removed or planted.
Choosing plants suited to your microclimate
The Bay Area's microclimates range from foggy and cool near the coast to hot and dry inland, and plant selection needs to match your specific conditions rather than a generic drought-tolerant plant list. Your designer factors this into the planting plan during the consultation.
