Custom landscape design and installation for residential properties across Northwest Houston. Thoughtful work, done right, built to last.
Call (713) 417-4766 →New Yards Landscaping specializes in full-service landscape design and installation for residential homeowners across Northwest Houston. Every project we take on is a complete design and build — from the first walk-through to the final planting.
With 30 years working the soil, drainage, and climate of Northwest Houston, every recommendation we make — from plant selection to bed layout — comes from real experience with this specific land. We know what grows well here and design around that knowledge.
Every property in Northwest Houston is different — the drainage, the sun patterns, the soil composition, the existing trees. We start with your land, not a template. Our team walks every site before a single plant is selected. What gets designed is what gets built, by the same crew, start to finish.
We work on full-property installations as well as targeted areas — front entries, back gardens, side yards, or full acreage estate redesigns. If you have a vision, we'll tell you honestly what's achievable and what will actually hold up in this climate.
Every recommendation — from plant species to bed layout — is based on 30 years of working in NW Houston's clay soil, seasonal conditions, and summer heat. We know what grows here and what doesn't.
We begin with a phone call — not a quote form. We take time to understand what you're hoping to create, what's not working about your current yard, and whether the project is a good fit for both sides.
Our team comes to you. We look at the site conditions — the light, the soil, the existing growth, and how water moves across the property. This is where the real design work begins, on the land itself.
You're welcome to visit our working property at 40911 FM 149 in Magnolia and walk through plants, trees, stone, and rock with our team. You point to what you like and what you don't — that's how we build your vision into the plan.
Before anything goes in the ground, we walk your site together and show you exactly where every plant, bed, and tree will be placed. You see the plan in real space before installation begins.
The team that walked your site is the team that installs it. No hand-offs, no miscommunication. What we agreed on during the consultation is what gets built.
Every project ends with our team on-site walking the finished work with you. We want to make sure every detail matches what we agreed on and that you're happy with the result.
Landscape design rarely happens in isolation. Depending on your property, a complete installation often includes drainage work, tree selection, hardscape, and more. Our team handles all of it — so you're not coordinating multiple contractors.
John Rueda started New Yards Landscaping in 1994. In that time, he has built landscapes across Magnolia, The Woodlands, Tomball, Conroe, and Montgomery for homeowners who wanted something done properly — not quickly, not cheaply, and not by someone who would hand the job off to an unfamiliar crew.
Every project we take on is personally overseen by our team. The same person who walks your property is the same person who directs the installation. That level of continuity isn't always common in this industry, and it's something we take seriously on every job.
We take on projects of all sizes — from a front entry refresh to a full acreage estate transformation. What stays the same regardless of size is the hands-on care and attention that has kept clients coming back to us for 30 years.
Based at FM 149 in Magnolia, TX, we design and install landscapes for residential properties throughout the region. Whether you're in a wooded acreage in Montgomery or a luxury home in The Woodlands, we bring the same 30 years of NW Houston knowledge to every property.
