Trusted by Homeowners Across Austin and the Texas Hill Country

For years, we’ve had the pleasure of transforming pool areas all over Austin, Dripping Springs, and the Texas Hill Country into beautiful outdoor spaces that homeowners aren’t embarrassed to show off. We love working with clients to really elevate their poolscape through poolside plantings and decorations, custom decking, retaining walls, and landscape lighting, you name it. Hearing how much a professionally designed and built poolscape changes how our customers use and enjoy their backyard makes it all worthwhile. We are proud when someone leaves us a positive review or refers us to a friend. That’s what keeps us showing up day after day, giving 100% on each project.

A great experience with Shawn & his crews! We had them work in three different areas on our property: clearing sitting space under Oaks in three spots (one with slate stone path) , creating a bed along our front walkway, creating a dry creek in our garden area, and creating a long path in the back of our lot linking an existing walkway with a sitting area. We look forward to working with this landscape company again! They were professional, friendly and reasonably priced.

I recently had the pleasure of working with Blazek Landscapes, and I can confidently say they deserve every bit of this five-star review! From my initial consultation to the completion of the project, the customer service was exceptional. Shawn recommended an array of beautifully arranged native plants. I love that my yard features plants that are drought-resistant and require less maintenance, making them both a practical and environmentally friendly choice! I am beyond satisfied with the results and highly recommend Blazek Landscapes.

- Andrea

Shawn helped us create a plan and align it with our schedule. His crews arrived on time, worked hard, and completed the project as expected. He did everything he said he’d do, and I cannot ask for more than that. I recommend Shawn Blazek and would hire them again.

- Jack

Five stars all the way. Shawn Blazek knows what he's doing. We are exceedingly happy with the results!

Shawn Blazek and his crew are the best! Beautiful landscaping, easy to work with, communicates well. I highly recommend Blazek Landscapes.

- Kathy

Blazek Landscapes did an outstanding job with landscape design and building a Lueder stone patio in our backyard outdoor living area. Shawn was responsive, came by soon after we contacted them and spent time discussing options. I expected replacing a wood deck with stone would break the budget, but the price was better than I expected. Not too much more than bids to repair / replace wood, and now I don't have to ever worry about painting and maintaining the wood, a huge plus. The crew was friendly and professional, they worked hard and the work was precise. Everything was well planned. For the removal of the wood deck, a dumpster came in the morning and was full and gone by end of day, instead of sitting there for a long period. They also took care moving items, not breaking irrigation, keeping the work site clean. We're super happy with the project overall and would highly recommend them.

Elements of Pool Landscaping

We use a range of elements to turn your vision into reality for pool landscaping. Poolscaping includes much more than beautiful plant selections. Some examples include:

Pool Decking. Pool decking provides visitors with a place for little feet to run around! A stable and slip-resistant area to stand on as they enter or exit the pool. We install decking that will withstand the Texas heat and handle plenty of activity while maintaining your pool area's beautiful appearance. Everything from flagstone to more contemporary pool decking options is available to you upon consultation!
Pool Landscape Plants. From hiding those pool equipment essentials to creating beautiful pops of color around your pool, the right planting strategy can take your pool's look to the next level. We know which plant species will not only look great in your landscape but can also withstand our Central Texas climate. Whether you want to showcase the native beauty of Hill Country plants or lean towards lush tropical designs, our pool landscaping builds around you.
Retaining Walls. Do you have a slope near your pool that could use some managing? Look no further than a retaining wall to create solid focal points around your pool area. From design and color to materials and height, our pool landscape retaining walls are built to suit your needs and complement your surroundings. Our contractors are trained to handle uniquely Texas Hill Country landscaping challenges like little else can!
Pool Landscaping Lighting. Pool landscaping lighting allows you to use your pool well past sunset. Instead of rushing inside when it gets dark, you can create a completely new atmosphere with beautifully illuminated pools for you and your guests. Our lighting plans will not only keep you safe throughout your pool area but also emphasize the features you want to highlight. Need some inspiration? We also offer custom outdoor fireplace and fire pit installations to make your guests want to gather around long after the sun goes down.

From rustic to elegant, we will style your backyard retreat exactly the way you want it. Get started today by contacting Blazek Landscapes!
