PROBLEM: 

The client wanted to utilize her backyard after recently purchasing the home. Her previous lifestyle included an intense amount of gardening, overwhelming maintenance, and a ton of stress. She definitely wanted to retain her gardening hobby at her new home, but she wanted it to be a simple and elegant addition to her new relaxed lifestyle. In the backyard consisted of a poorly constructed deck off the back door. The client wished to extend the patio and have it transition into her landscape.  

SOLUTION: 

PCL created a custom design specified off of the client’s general ideas of how they would wish to spend their outdoor life at their new home. The back deck was the centerpiece of the transition from an interior life, to an outdoor backyard life. The deck initially entailed a deck that was built around a hot tub (Which the client loved). As we proceeded with the build, we changed the hot tub go right at the bottom of the stairs to the left sitting right in the landscape (minimizing maintenance). We tied the landscape into two tiers. One for grass, one for planting, and a concrete sidewalk between the deck and the bottom tier to create easy access.  

RESULTS: 

All of the functions to this landscape complement one another, every angle of the landscape is just as beautiful in real life as the proposed design. The client said, “I was scared when you started excavating, it was a lot of dirt and the yard looked destroyed to no return. I just look out at what was created, and I couldn’t imagine anything different, it is simply perfect. You guys did a great job, your design was perfect, the changes we made along the way came out beyond better than I expected. I couldn’t be happier.” 

PROBLEM:

The client wished to complete their initial wishes to their landscape after they had progressed the install of a landscape that wasn’t functional to their expectations. We were called to the house to initially look at doing some basic landscape edging and moving around some landscape materials. After a good thought, we all agreed the best bet was to move forward with a well thought out landscape design.

SOLUTION:

We created a design for the backyard to encompass removal of the existing pea gravel area, raised beds and some trees. The design was to entail a space in the back yard for the married couple to be able to easily enjoy a simple and low maintenance landscape and relax on their patio. Also in the design, we used cottage stone as a edging for all the flowerbeds in both the front and back yard. The front yard design entailed removing a random island of flower bed in the middle of the yard and installing a well though out bed with step stones from the road access that led to the backyard.

RESULTS:

The clients are very happy with the way the project and back patio came out. They are enjoying customizing their new landscape with their lavender plants, hanging baskets, and eventually outdoor lighting.

PROBLEM:

The client had just moved from Texas to Ferndale and the back landscape was pretty bare and overgrown. A lot of the plants were misplaced and growing into each other. Being from Texas the client has no idea what they wanted in their yard, but they knew it was under kept and ugly. They wished to spend time in the back yard having fun and entertaining friends.

SOLUTION:

PCL created a custom design specified off of the clients general ideas of how they would wish to spend their time at their new home. We incorporated a concrete walkway down the side of the house leading to the backyard. We changed the theme of the home from overgrown plants with weeds and bark, to beautifully placed plants mixed with rocks, cobblestone, gravel, an oval patio for a fireplace, a 3 tier basalt column water feature, and low maintenance landscape edging. PCL came up with the idea of blocking out the unwanted noises of neighbors and roads with a water feature that drizzles slowly, and to top it off the water feature is surrounded with lavenders and lemon balms for a calming scent.

After finishing the installation of the landscape the clients wished to have new railing on their deck that overlooks their fence leading to Mt Baker. The clients than wanted to add custom raised beds alongside the deck for vegetable growth.

RESULTS:

The clients were in heaven as we sculpted their ideas using professional methods into their landscape. At the end of all the busy projects, the clients told the team that they are extremely happy with the good design, and overall meaning of the landscape they have. They couldn’t be happier.
