Discover what Twin Oaks Landscape Design can do for your home

As homeowners begin looking ahead to warmer months, outdoor spaces often move to the top of the priority list. From enhancing curb appeal to creating functional areas for gathering and relaxation, thoughtful landscaping can significantly change how a home looks—and how it lives. More than an aesthetic upgrade, a well-designed landscape becomes an extension of the home itself.

For more than two decades, Twin Oaks Landscape Design has helped homeowners in Hillsborough and throughout the Tri-State area bring those outdoor visions to life. Founded in 2005 by Robert Jorgensen, the company brings nearly 30 years of industry experience to every project. Its approach is rooted in careful planning, client education and a commitment to building landscapes that stand the test of time.

“Landscaping isn’t just about what looks good today,” Jorgensen says. “It’s about making smart decisions that hold up over time and fit how people actually use their homes.”

A Full-Service Approach From Start to Finish

Twin Oaks Landscape Design offers comprehensive landscape design, installation and maintenance services, allowing homeowners to work with one team throughout the entire process. Projects range from plantings and grading to patios, walkways, retaining walls and full outdoor living environments complete with fire features and custom hardscaping.

That start-to-finish model helps eliminate confusion and ensures every phase of a project is executed with care and consistency. Clear communication, organized job sites and a professional on-site presence have become hallmarks of the Twin Oaks reputation, earning long-term trust from both clients and industry partners.

The company is frequently recommended by fellow contractors, including Hicks Paving, which refers clients seeking specialized Belgian block and masonry work—an endorsement that reflects Twin Oaks’ standing within the industry.

Specialized Craftsmanship That Adds Lasting Value

While Twin Oaks offers a wide range of landscape services, the company is particularly known for its craftsmanship in Belgian block installations, Techo-Bloc products and custom boulder walls. These elements provide structure, durability and timeless visual appeal, elevating a property while contributing to long-term value.

That level of craftsmanship has been demonstrated in large-scale residential projects as well. In the Four Seasons retirement community, Twin Oaks completed 17 driveways, delivering consistent quality across multiple homes while still tailoring details to suit each individual property.

Education-First Planning and Smart Design

A defining characteristic of Twin Oaks’ work is its consultative, education-first mindset. Each project begins with a detailed conversation about how the space will be used today and how it may evolve in the future. Jorgensen and his team walk homeowners through design options, construction sequencing and practical considerations that can help protect their investment.

One example is the recommendation to install a “chase tube” beneath driveway pavers. This simple but forward-thinking addition allows homeowners to add lighting or drainage in the future without disturbing finished stonework. The team also advises clients on proper project order, ensuring that heavy machinery work is completed before final hardscaping to prevent unnecessary damage and added costs.

In one notable project, a client initially hired Twin Oaks for tree removal. Rather than discarding the materials, the team repurposed the removed cedar trees into a custom fence. The project expanded over time to include leveling the yard, redesigning the hardscaping and ultimately constructing a detached two-car garage—earning the client’s trust through consistent results at every stage.

An Investment That Enhances How a Home Lives

Professional landscaping offers benefits that extend far beyond appearance. A well-planned outdoor space can increase property value, improve functionality, support local plants and pollinators, and reduce long-term maintenance demands. Twin Oaks also provides routine lawn maintenance and snow management services, offering homeowners dependable, year-round support.

For those considering outdoor updates—whether a simple refresh or a complete property transformation—Twin Oaks Landscape Design brings experience, foresight and craftsmanship to every project.
