Residential LandscapingA beautiful garden can be a great place to escape from the “hustle and bustle” of everyday life. Just relaxing among the plants and flowers can be an enjoyable way to spend an afternoon. There is a myriad of plants to select from for your Northwest garden.
LawnsThere really are many benefits to having a beautiful lawn that is perfectly maintained. Not only does a well-maintained lawn help increase the property value of a home, but it also serves as a safe place for recreational activities and for children to play. However, a beautiful lawn requires a great deal of preparation and work, including the preparation of the soil as well as grading and draining. Furthermore, proper maintenance of the grass is necessary so that it retains its lushness and beauty. This requires a schedule that incorporates the proper amount and timing of mowing, fertilizing and weed and insect control. Pacific Landscape Management has created a maintenance schedule that is ideal for the Pacific Northwest climate and the different types of grass and sod that are common here. We are also very knowledgeable of the safety and hazards associated with the various pesticides available and with cranefly control.
Grading and Drainage ServicesAs rural and urban land continues to be over developed in addition to the altering climate it is more important than ever to include grading and draining into landscape projects. When these methods are implemented properly they will assist in making your garden last longer while maintaining its original beauty. In addition to grading and draining we also focus on soil preparation when preparing the design of your garden. Soil preparation is just as important because knowing the soil and how it interacts with different plants will allow you to have the healthy and verdant garden you are hoping for. Ensuring the soil is maximized for root growth and ultimately a flourishing garden is one of our main priorities that we focus on extensively. There are many different types of soils and soil mixes that may be used to achieve just the right mixture of plants, shrubs, and flowers. Different soils are also useful for pots and planters and raised herb gardens.
