FAQs
How do you handle common Seattle irrigation timer failures?
In Seattle's damp climate, irrigation timer failures are often caused by moisture damage or power fluctuations. We diagnose the issue by checking connections, testing components, and assessing moisture exposure. For repair, we use weather-resistant timers and proper sealing techniques. For prevention, we recommend installing timers in protected locations and performing seasonal maintenance checks before the dry summer months.
What's included in your sustainable landscape design services?
Our sustainable landscape design considers Seattle's specific conditions including rainfall patterns, soil types, and native plant suitability. We create plans that minimize water usage through proper grading and native plant selection, incorporate permeable surfaces to manage runoff, and design for long-term low maintenance. We also consider how plant choices support local pollinators and wildlife while creating beautiful, functional outdoor living spaces.
Can you handle both tree removal and new patio construction in one project?
Yes, we regularly manage comprehensive projects that involve multiple services. For example, we can safely remove trees, regrade the area, install proper drainage, and construct a patio or walkway—all as a coordinated project. This integrated approach ensures proper sequencing, minimizes site disruption, and often reduces overall costs compared to hiring separate specialists for each task.
