Owner-run landscaping
built on craftsmanship.
We're a Santa Cruz–based crew that handles every part of your project in-house — from prep and grading to the finishing touches.
Our story
Gerson Hernandez, behind the wheel.
Gerson Painting & Landscaping was built around one simple idea: the homeowner deserves to deal with the person actually doing the work. No call center, no salesperson, no surprise sub-crews.
Gerson has worked Santa Cruz County properties for 15+ years and started this company to serve neighbors the right way — with honest quotes, real craftsmanship, and a job site that's left cleaner than we found it.
Today the crew handles poison oak and scotch broom removal, tree removal, trimming and pruning, property clean-ups, plant installation, mulching, weed fabric, edging, sprinkler repair, and wood splitting — all in-house, all backed by the same standard, with same-day service available.
