Water-wise landscapes that look great through Texas drought and watering limits.
Xeriscaping in West Lake Hills means turning those steep limestone canyon lots into stunning, water-wise landscapes that thrive through Texas drought and watering limits. Your high-end estate here deals with challenging grade and shallow soil over solid rock-exactly the conditions where thoughtful plant selection and smart irrigation design pay off most. Corral Bros designs and installs xeriscapes that cut water bills while keeping your property looking sharp year-round.
We start on-site to read your particular canyon, your drainage, and what already grows there. West Lake Hills neighborhoods like Davenport Ranch and Eanes demand work that respects the landscape's natural pitch and rocky bones. Drip irrigation, native and drought-tolerant plantings, permeable hardscape-these aren't shortcuts, they're the real way to live comfortably with less water and lower maintenance.
We're a local, family-built company that treats your West Lake Hills property like our own — tidy crews, clear pricing, and xeriscaping that holds up to Travis County conditions. Available as a one-time project or part of an ongoing plan.
Xeriscaping is water-wise landscaping built around drought-tolerant plants, efficient drip irrigation and reduced turf. It can dramatically cut outdoor water use, which is often the largest part of a Central Texas water bill, while staying green and attractive through drought and watering restrictions.
No. A well-designed xeriscape is lush and colorful, using Texas natives and adapted perennials like salvia, lantana, esperanza and ornamental grasses alongside rock and gravel. The goal is beauty with low water, not a bare gravel lot.
No. Xeriscaping uses layered plantings-ornamental grasses, native shrubs, groundcovers, and carefully placed boulders-to create visual depth and color. West Lake Hills properties respond beautifully to this approach. You get year-round interest without the thirsty turf. Corral Bros designs each planting palette for your specific site and canyon exposure.
Your shallow soils, steep slopes, and exposed limestone require drainage-first thinking. We design around natural water flow, anchor plants to withstand grade, and choose species that tolerate thin, alkaline soil. On-site assessment lets us see exactly how water moves through your property and build around it.
Initial installation costs are usually comparable to traditional landscaping, sometimes less. The real savings come after-lower water bills, less mowing, less pruning. We provide free no-obligation on-site estimates within 48 hours. Call us at (737) 404-9343 to walk your property and get specifics.
Absolutely. We design drip systems for new xeriscapes and retrofit existing plantings. Drip delivers water directly to roots, cutting waste. In West Lake Hills' dry season, you'll see the difference in plant health and your water bill. We handle design, installation, and system setup.
Less than you'd think. No weekly mowing. Established native and drought-tolerant plants need minimal fertilizer. Spring and fall cleanups, occasional mulch refresh-that's mostly it. Corral Bros can set up a maintenance plan that fits your schedule and keeps everything healthy.
