“Hardscape-to-softscape ratios matter for LADBS grading permits and for fire zone compliance. Most LA hillside neighborhoods limit total hardscape coverage to 50% of the lot. In VHFHSZ fire zones, materials within Zone 0 (0–5 feet from structure) must be non-combustible: pavers, decomposed granite, or concrete — not wood chips or mulch within that zone.”
Get a soil amendment recommendation before finalizing your planting plan. LA soils range from heavy clay in the Valley to decomposed granite in foothill areas. The planting mix, amendment type, and irrigation schedule needed for drought-tolerant plants varies dramatically by soil type. A $200 soil test identifies what amendments are needed and saves guesswork in year one establishment.
