Deck Landscaping

What This Service Involves

A deck feels far more inviting when it is woven into the landscape rather than sitting on a bare patch of yard. We soften deck edges with layered plantings, shade-tolerant borders, and container gardens chosen to thrive in the filtered light and moisture typical of Northwest yards. Thoughtful drainage and gravel details keep the area around the deck from turning to mud during our long rainy season, protecting both the structure and your footing. The finished space blends built and living elements into a cohesive outdoor room you can enjoy from spring through fall.

Benefits

Our Process

1) Assess the deck, exposure, and surrounding grade; 2) Design plantings, borders, and drainage details; 3) Prepare beds and correct drainage around the deck; 4) Install plantings, containers, and edging; 5) Mulch, clean up, and provide a care plan

What Affects the Cost

Size of the deck and surrounding area; Extent of drainage and grading work; Quantity and maturity of plantings; Borders, gravel, or edging materials chosen; Site access for materials and installation

Best Time of Year

Spring and fall planting takes advantage of cool, damp Northwest weather so borders around the deck establish before summer.
