Garden Cleanup & Preparation

Over time, garden beds accumulate weeds, dead growth, and fallen debris. We clear old mulch, remove weeds by hand, and refresh the soil. Your beds start the season clean and ready to grow.

Spring and fall are ideal times to prep beds for new plantings or seasonal transitions. We work carefully around existing plants to protect what you want to keep.

Shrub & Tree Trimming

Proper pruning keeps shrubs and small trees healthy and shapely. We trim for structure, remove dead wood, and encourage new growth. Timing matters—we know when and how to prune common Bainbridge Island plants.

Regular trimming prevents overgrowth and pest issues. We'll also thin dense growth to improve air circulation and reduce disease risk in our moist climate.

New Lawn Installation

A healthy lawn needs good soil and the right grass varieties. We remove old lawn, amend soil, and install seed or sod suited to our island climate. Proper installation means faster establishment and fewer problems.

We advise on watering schedules and early care so your new lawn thrives. Most lawns establish well within 6–8 weeks with basic attention.

Lawn Maintenance

Ongoing care keeps your lawn thick, healthy, and attractive year-round. We mow on a regular schedule, edge for clean lines, and edge beds to reduce mulch spillover and maintenance.

Seasonal adjustments matter on Bainbridge Island. We adjust mowing height, fertilize at the right times, and manage moss or thin patches before they spread. A well-maintained lawn is an outdoor room you'll use more.

Pressure Washing for Outdoor Spaces

Cleaned hardscaping ready for spring in the Winslow area.

Moisture and shade mean moss and algae grow fast on Bainbridge Island driveways, patios, and walkways. We pressure wash these surfaces safely to restore them and reduce slip hazards.

Regular cleaning extends the life of hardscaping and makes your whole property look fresh. We use appropriate pressure levels to avoid damage while getting results.

Why It Matters

A well-designed garden is an investment in your home and your quality of life.

Beauty That Reflects Your Style

Your garden should feel like an extension of your home. Professional design creates spaces that are functional and beautiful, tailored to your taste and lifestyle. Whether you want a formal cottage garden, modern minimalist landscape, or lush native plantings, thoughtful design makes it happen.

Plants That Thrive Here

Bainbridge Island's maritime climate—cool summers, wet winters, and moderate sun—requires plant choices suited to these conditions. We select varieties that thrive here, reducing plant loss and maintenance frustration.

Lower Maintenance Over Time

Good design anticipates your climate and your willingness to maintain. We choose hardy plants, use mulch wisely, and create layouts that reduce weeding and watering. The result is a garden that looks great with less work each season.

Home Value & Curb Appeal

Landscaping is one of the first things visitors and potential buyers notice. Well-designed gardens increase curb appeal and can positively influence property perception. A thoughtfully planted landscape is a practical investment.
