SOLVING EASTSIDE CHALLENGES
Expert Solutions for Common Property Issues
Many Eastside homeowners struggle with site challenges that standard landscaping can't address. Our landscape architecture background means we diagnose root causes and design durable solutions.
Yard Drainage Issues
Standing water after rain? Soggy lawn areas? We design and install drainage systems that address the root cause, not just the symptoms.
Steep Slope Challenges
Sloped lots require design-led slope solutions. We design retaining walls, terraces, and grading plans that maximize usable space with an emphasis on long-term stability.
Poor Soil Conditions
Clay soils are common across the Eastside. We amend soils and select plants that thrive in local conditions.
Outdated Landscapes
Refreshing an existing landscape while preserving mature trees and hardscape elements that still work. Cost-effective transformation with minimal disruption.

HOW WE WORK
A Clear Path from Concept to Completion
Our process is designed to be transparent, collaborative, and efficient. You'll know exactly what to expect at every stage—and you'll see the full scope and cost before construction begins. Review the feature gallery, partner with us, and understand typical investment ranges.
Initial Consultation
We meet on-site to understand your goals, review existing conditions, and assess feasibility. This is a working conversation, not a sales pitch. You’ll receive honest feedback about scope, timeline, and investment range.
Concept Design & Estimate
We develop preliminary plans with key design decisions resolved—grading approach, hardscape layout, major plantings. This includes a detailed cost estimate so you can make an informed decision before committing to full design.
Final Design & Pre-Construction Planning
We finalize construction drawings, identify any required permit or review steps, and lock in specifications. You approve every detail before we break ground.
Construction & Installation
Our crew handles site preparation, hardscape construction, planting, and finishing details. You have a direct line to your project lead throughout.
Completion & Walkthrough
We walk the finished project together, address any final adjustments, and provide maintenance guidance. We stand behind our work and address any issues that arise.
