We wanted a good place to share great projects and some of our expertise with our clients and the world at large, so when we put this new site together, it was important to us to include an awesome blog.
I hope you’ll take a moment to check out some of our posts. We can always be reached through the contact info at the bottom of the page, feel free to give us a call with any questions.
Everyone loves a before & after shot. This complete overhaul of a SW Washington yard saw this:
Become THIS:
This clean, simple design looks so natural and well-suited to this home and neighborhood. It’s come a long way!
To achieve something that looks this good, it takes real expertise and a custom touch. Here’s a point-by-point assessment of the project, note how many of the key components required some tailoring unique to just this project:
We have excellent suppliers and access to top notch commercial materials, but it takes more than just good blocks to make a project like this a reality.
Our consultants are meeting with homeowners and property managers every day to plan projects just like this one. Give us a call today.
There are a number of popular hardscape patterns for pathways, driveways, and patios. Here’s a breakdown of some of the more common requests.
Here are two different patterns we used on a recent project. These patterns are a custom pattern one of our reps designed with input from the homeowner. The homeowner liked an element of a popular design, but the space and specifics of the project required us to improvise a way to implement that shape into the greater pattern that would look cohesive on the property.
Do you have a mental picture of a pathway for your home in Vancouver? Would that sloped area in your yard in Camas really benefit from some steps? Want that rustic cobblestone look to tie together your front yard in Portland? We can work with you to make that into a reality. Give us a call.
Rain Bird makes almost all of the irrigation components we use day-to-day. These special nozzles are a fantastic option that we install in almost all of our new irrigation installs.
These nozzles are only a few cents more per head on a new installation system, but they provide up to 30% water savings!
The water savings alone set these nozzles ahead of other options– but the increase in performance is what should seal the deal for any homeowner looking to improve the efficiency and quality of their sprinkler system. The coverage offered by these nozzles allows you to have a healthier lawn with less water.
In a less even coverage system, some areas of the lawn would be forced to get too much water in order to ensure adequate water on otherwise under covered areas. With these heads, coverage is a breeze and grass looks fuller and more even-toned.
Replacing the nozzles on an existing system is typically in the $100-$200 range (including labor)– give us a call today and our technician can upgrade your system to an HE-VAN nozzle set.
