What Houston & Fort Bend Homeowners Say About HLI
- ★★★★★
We recently hired Houston Landscape Images to install a few projects at our home: concrete driveway extension, cedar fence/gate replacement, subsurface drainage extension, exterior door added into brick wall. They did an outstanding job on all aspects of the project. Sanson was wonderful to work with, transparent on costs, and stayed in contact throughout the job. The crew was punctual, highly skilled and left the job site spotless each day. I would highly recommend Houston Landscape Images!
Coley S. - ★★★★★
They built a patio cover. We are grateful to the company under the direction of Mr. Sanson, who answered all our questions and made recommendations. He is responsible, always available, and clearly has a lot of experience. If you want to make improvements to your home and be sure that they will do a good job, this is the team you need. They built our patio cover. It was an excellent experience. Sanson answered all our questions. He helped us with the design and made several suggestions before construction. Sanson and his team are very responsible and serious. I noticed they have experience doing this type of construction. We are pleased and happy because our patio cover turned out very nice, just as we wanted.
Angel R. - ★★★★★
Houston Landscape Images is a first-class, professional company. First start to finish everything was handled at a high standard. From images, we were given a choice of paver and retainer options. We asked about how to solve a water drainage problem, so also received an excellent solution. Work was done timely and the workmen were very experienced. The landscape looks even better than we expected. No problems of any sort.
Youqi W. - ★★★★★
Houston Landscape Images and Samson in particular are fantastic to work with. They helped design and build or outdoor kitchen and decorative patio. Outstanding quality and professionalism. I highly recommend you consider them for your landscaping needs.
John G. - ★★★★★
Houston Landscape did not disappoint. I had them extend my existing patio and add a decorative overlay on top. It came out beautiful. The owner Sanson and his entire crew were very professional and efficient. They came when they said they would and finished the entire job on time. The owner Sanson showed his presence daily to ensure that the job was progressing as planned. He is very easy to communicate with and very responsive. I would recommend this company to everyone and I would definitely do business with them again.
Roslyn S. - ★★★★★
I couldn’t be more pleased with the work done on my yard by Houston Landscape Images. From start to finish, the experience was outstanding. Sanson Faltine, the owner, is incredibly knowledgeable and professional. He took the time to lay out a thoughtful design that worked beautifully with the existing trees and took into account how sun and shade would affect the space. In addition to the landscaping, Sanson also installed a sprinkler system. With many companies, sprinkler installations can lead to issues, but Sanson made sure mine was done with precision and worked flawlessly from the start. His attention to detail and the quality of his work are truly exceptional. He communicates clearly about how to care for the landscaping once the job is done and stands behind his work — something many don’t do these days. The results are something you’ll be proud of — a yard that not only looks beautiful but truly stands out above the rest. If you’re looking to invest in both beauty and quality for your outdoor space, Houston Landscape Images, led by Sanson Faltine, is the only way to go. Highly recommend!
Debbie D. - ★★★★★
Sanson Faltine and his amazing team at Houston Landscape Images did an outstanding job designing and constructing a large and very challenging covered patio for our home. Sanson prepared a detailed plan for completing the patio cover, provided excellent onsite construction supervision, and finished the project ahead of schedule. All materials used were of the highest quality and installed with precision and excellent craftsmanship. We highly recommend Houston Landscape Images for any work for your home of business.
Dan S. - ★★★★★
Sansone and his crew are simply awesome! Highly recommended! I decided to expand my 2-1/2 car driveway into a full 3 car driveway. Part of my requirement was to remove parts of the existing driveway that were cracked. Sansone provided all the drawings and specifications with his quote. He also handled all of the HOA requirements. This was especially helpful as the HOA initially rejected my application for what appeared to be spurious reasons. Sansone got to work and provided an overwhelming amount of information to the HOA to support my application. As a result the HOA did grant approval. His work crews were very efficient and professional. They took care to not damage any surrounding areas. They cleaned up every single day and left the work site neat and tidy on a daily basis. They started work on the day he said they would and they finished the job exactly on the date as promised. Sansone even went to extra efforts for me. I had to go out of town immediately upon completion of the concrete work. He personally came back every day to spray down the concrete and to water the sod they had installed. I could not be happier with the work and the results. I highly recommend Sansone and Houston Landscape Images. I'm looking forward to having him work on some additional projects!
Paul M. - ★★★★★
We had an amazing experience working with Sanson and his team. They built an outdoor kitchen in a vacant space we had off of our back patio. They helped with choosing the right brand appliances for the addition, matched our stone from our spa waterfall from our pool, and matched our granite that we had in our home. They built a covered pergola with a ceiling fan which helps protect everything from the weather and we can enjoy our outdoor kitchen all year long. While they were working on our outdoor kitchen, I asked for help with seating around our fire pit next to our pool. The decking around the fire pit was built when our pool was done and it was difficult to find the right seating for it. Sanson came up with a great design for built-in seating and he matched the stone that we had around our pool. It looks like we had this built as one cohesive plan. His crew is great to work with and kept the area picked up during the construction phase. They made the experience so easy! I will use Sanson and his team for all of my outdoor needs and will definitely use him again if we do any other outdoor additions to our home.
Cathy M. - ★★★★★
Sanson has done 3 projects for us since 2018 and he did a superlative job on each of them. Sanson is so good to work with. He is very professional, extremely conscientous about the quality of his work and so detail-oriented. His final product is always a 10+++. It is quite clear that he takes a lot of pride in his work. I wish all contractors were as good as what we have experienced working with him. Highly recommended.

Landscaping Questions From Houston Homeowners
How much does landscaping cost in Houston?
It depends on the size of your yard and what you want built. As a guide, new plant beds often start around $1,000 to $3,000, sod around $1,000 to $2,500, and drainage projects around $2,000 to $5,000. Patios usually run $5,000 to $25,000 or more, patio covers $4,000 to $20,000 or more, and outdoor kitchens $8,000 to $30,000 or more. Full landscape designs with hardscape start around $5,000 and can go well beyond. We visit your property for free and give you an itemized quote, so you can see what each part costs and adjust the plan to fit your budget.
How long does a landscaping project take?
Most projects are done in about 2 to 4 weeks once work starts. Smaller jobs like plant beds, sod, or a French drain can take just a few days. Larger builds with patios, patio covers, or outdoor kitchens take longer, especially if your HOA needs to approve the plans first. We give you a timeline with your estimate and keep you posted as the work moves along. Customers often mention in their reviews that we finished when we said we would.
What areas do you serve?
We are based in Richmond, TX, in Fort Bend County, and serve 33 communities across greater Houston. That includes Richmond, Rosenberg, Sugar Land, Fulshear, Sienna, Katy, Cypress, Spring, The Woodlands, Pearland, and Houston neighborhoods like Memorial, River Oaks, West University Place, Bellaire, and the Heights. If you are not sure whether we cover your street, give us a call and we will let you know.
What happens during the free design consultation?
We meet you at your property, walk the yard with you, and talk through how you want to use the space and what you want to spend. We look at sun, shade, slope, drainage, and any HOA rules. Then we design a plan that fits, with material samples and, for larger projects, 3D drawings so you can see it before we build. You get a clear, itemized estimate. There is no cost and no pressure to move forward.
Can you help with HOA approval?
Yes. Many master-planned communities around Houston, including those in Katy, Sugar Land, and across Fort Bend County, require architectural review before you build a patio, cover, kitchen, or make a major landscape change. We prepare the drawings, material details, and specs your HOA asks for. Customers have shared in their reviews how this helped get their projects approved, even after an HOA pushed back at first. We start work once you have approval in hand.
How do you handle drainage in Houston clay soil?
Much of the Houston area sits on heavy clay that drains slowly and swells when wet, so water tends to pool in flat yards and along foundations. We start by checking how water moves across your lot. Then we fix it with the right mix of grading, French drains, catch basins, and downspout lines that carry water away from your house. We plan drainage into every patio and landscape project, so new hardscape does not create new puddles.
Do you use subcontractors?
No. HLI is family-owned and run, and our own crew does the work. Owner Sanson Faltine stays involved from the first visit to the final walkthrough, and many of our crew members have worked with him for years. That means one team is responsible for your project, and you always know who to call.
Do you offer financing?
Yes. Financing is available through HFS Financial, so you can build the patio, outdoor kitchen, or landscape you want and pay over time. You can apply online with HFS Financial, or ask us about it during your free consultation. Approval and terms are set by the lender.
