Stockton Landscaping & Concrete Services
TRUSTED LANDSCAPING & CONCRETE CONTRACTOR IN STOCKTON CA
Outdoor Spaces Designed for California Living
Your yard is an extension of your home. It's where you eat dinner in August, where the kids play, and where guests end up at every get-together. When the concrete is level, the lawn is green, and the walls and borders are built to last, that space gets used every day instead of just looked at.
Drago Inc. is a Stockton landscaping and concrete contractor, family-owned and veteran-owned, in business since 2016. We hold CSLB License #1017023 for both landscaping (C-27) and concrete (C-8), so one licensed crew can handle the full project from grading and pouring to turf and finishing touches.
Every project is shaped around your goals, your yard layout, your budget, and how your family actually lives outside. No cookie-cutter plans, and no surprises on the estimate.
WHY STOCKTON HOMEOWNERS CHOOSE DRAGO INC.
Landscaping and Concrete Solutions Built to Last
Stockton is hard on outdoor projects. Summers are hot and dry, winters bring heavy rain to clay-heavy soil, and a yard that wasn't prepared for both will crack, settle, or flood. Most of the failures we're called in to fix trace back to skipped prep work: poor grading, thin bases, or no plan for where water goes.
That's why we put the work where you can't see it. Proper base preparation, correct slopes, and materials chosen for Central Valley conditions are what keep a patio flat and a lawn healthy ten years later, not just on installation day.

Because we do both landscaping and concrete, the pieces of your project are planned together. The patio is poured with the lawn grade in mind, and the planting is designed around the hardscape instead of squeezed in afterward..
Here's what working with Drago Inc. looks like:
- Clear communication and transparent estimates: you know the scope, the materials, and the cost before work starts
- Quality craftsmanship: detail work that holds up to close inspection
- Full-service solutions: concrete, turf, sod, walls, rock, and landscaping under one licensed contractor
- Functional design: outdoor spaces planned around how you'll use them
- Durable materials: products selected for California heat, sun, and seasonal rains
OUR STOCKTON SERVICES
Complete Landscaping and Concrete Services for Residential Properties
From a single new patio to a full yard transformation, here's what we install across Stockton and the surrounding area. Each service has its own page with details on materials, process, and pricing factors.

Driveways, patios, walkways, and slabs poured on a properly prepared base so they stay level and crack-resistant. Our concrete installation work is built for Stockton's soil and temperature swings.

Concrete that looks like stone, slate, brick, or wood, with color and texture options that fit your home. Stamped and decorative concrete gives you the look of premium materials with concrete's durability.
Outdoor living space you'll actually use, from a simple slab for a table and grill to a larger entertaining area. A well built concrete patio starts with the right base and slope so rain drains away from your home.

A driveway has to carry vehicle weight every day and survive Stockton's heat and winter rain. Our concrete driveways are poured on a compacted base with proper thickness and control joints to limit cracking.

Full landscape design and installation planned around your yard's sunlight, drainage, and layout. Our landscaping services tie planting, rock, turf, and hardscape into one cohesive plan.

A green lawn all year without the mowing, watering, or brown patches. Artificial turf installation is a popular fit for Stockton yards where water costs and summer heat make natural grass a constant chore.

Structural walls for slopes and grade changes, plus clean borders that separate lawn, beds, and hardscape. Our retaining walls and landscape borders are built with drainage in mind, because that's what makes a wall last..
Level ground, correct slopes, and a lawn that actually takes root. Grading, sod installation, and lawn renovation turn patchy, uneven yards into healthy lawns. .

Low-maintenance coverage that controls weeds, retains moisture, and gives beds and side yards a finished look. Rock, mulch, and decorative ground cover is one of the simplest ways to cut upkeep in a Stockton yard. .

OUTDOOR SPACES DESIGNED FOR STOCKTON HOMES
Landscaping and Concrete Built Around the Way You Live
No two households use their yards the same way. Some want a patio big enough for a full table and a grill. Others want a low-maintenance front yard that looks sharp without weekend work. We start by asking how you want the space to function, then design around that instead of fitting you into a standard package.
Popular projects we build for Stockton homeowners include:
- Concrete patios and outdoor seating areas
- Artificial turf and low-maintenance lawns
- Decorative landscaping with rock, mulch, and planting
- Walkways, borders, and retaining walls
- Full outdoor living spaces that combine several of these
The result is a yard that's easier to maintain, more comfortable to use, and a better look for your home from the street.
WHY PROFESSIONAL INSTALLATION MATTERS
The Difference Between a Quick Upgrade and Long-Term Results
A fast, cheap install can look fine the day it's finished. The difference shows up the first wet winter, when an under-prepared base settles, water pools where it shouldn't, or turf edges lift. Cosmetic fixes don't solve problems that start underground.
Professional installation starts with the ground. We evaluate the soil, set the grade so water moves away from your home, and build a compacted base before anything visible goes in. That prep takes more time up front and prevents most of the repairs homeowners end up paying for later.

It also keeps the finished project cohesive. When one contractor plans the grading, the hardscape, and the planting together, the pieces fit instead of fighting each other.
OUR PROCESS
A Clear and Simple Experience From Start to Finish
You shouldn't have to guess what happens next. Every project follows the same four steps.
We walk your property, talk through what you want, and look at drainage, soil, access, and layout. You get honest feedback on what will work and what it should cost, with no pressure to commit.
1. Consultation & Property Evaluation
We map out materials, layout, and scope so every feature works together. You approve the plan and the estimate before any work begins.
2. Design & Planning
We clear, grade, and prepare the site, then install your project on a solid base. This is the stage that determines how long the finished work lasts, so we don't rush it.
3. Site Preparation & Installation
We walk the finished project with you, confirm it matches the plan, and make sure you're happy before we call it complete.
4. Final Wakthrough & Completion

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
Common Questions About Landscaping and Concrete Services in Stockton
Straight answers to what Stockton homeowners ask us most.
-
How much do landscaping services cost in Stockton CA?
It depends on the size of the project, the materials, and the condition of your site. A small rock border or walkway costs far less than a full yard redesign with a patio, turf, and retaining walls. We give an exact price after a free on-site estimate rather than a flat rate, because two similar looking yards can need very different prep work.
-
How long does a concrete project take?
Project timelines depend on the size and complexity of the work. Smaller patios or walkways may take only a few days, while larger projects can take longer.
-
Is artificial turf worth it in Stockton?
For many homeowners, yes. Turf stays green through summer heat, needs no mowing or watering, and removes the patchy spots that come with natural grass in clay soil. It's a strong fit if you want low maintenance or lower water use. It costs more up front than sod, so we walk through both options with you. Learn how installation works on our artificial turf installation page.
-
Do retaining walls help with drainage?
Yes. A properly built retaining wall helps with erosion control, drainage, and slope stabilization, as long as drainage is designed into the wall. A wall without a plan for water behind it can crack or fail, so we build that in from the start.
-
What is the best low-maintenance landscaping option?
A combination of decorative rock, mulch, drought-tolerant plants, and artificial turf is the most effective low-maintenance setup for Stockton. Each one cuts a different chore: weeding, watering, or mowing.
-
Do you offer free estimates?
Yes. We offer free consultations and estimates throughout Stockton. Fill out the form on our free estimate page or call (209) 871-8110.
