We're looking to convert our small (dying) SoCal grass front yard to some sort of drought-resistant landscape and are struggling to find any company interested in working on such a small project. So we are wondering if this is a DIY job and, if so, what the basic procedure is, please?
As you can see, it's a quarter-circle shape and it's on an incline, with the edges flush with the driveway/sidewalk and then (in the shade) there is some mulch with plants etc.
What would be an easy DIY replacement? Some sort of gravel with a few plants? How do we remove the turf and prepare the base?
Sorry about the dumb questions, but we're complete landscaping novices here... Alternatively, if you know of any contractors in the San Diego area who could tackle this, please PM me!
