Absolutely. Moss often thrives in shady, damp areas with poor drainage. Our landscape design process specifically evaluates your yard's sun exposure, soil composition, and drainage patterns. We can design solutions like regrading, installing French drains, or creating raised planting beds to improve water flow. We also recommend plant selections and lawn alternatives suited for shaded areas, which can outcompete moss and create a healthier, more resilient landscape.

A well-designed irrigation plan is key. We map your property's zones based on sun exposure, plant types, and soil to ensure efficient water use. This prevents the common issue of overwatering some areas (which can cause leaks and moss) while underwatering others. Our designs often incorporate modern, water-efficient components and separate zones for turf, beds, and slopes. Proper planning during the design phase ensures your sprinkler system is installed correctly from the start, minimizing future leaks and saving you money on your water bill.

The first step is a complimentary on-site consultation. We'll walk your property with you to discuss your vision, identify specific problem areas like moss patches or soggy ground, and assess your existing irrigation. This allows us to understand your needs within the context of Gresham's climate and your home's unique layout. From there, we create a custom design plan that not only enhances your yard's beauty but also provides practical, long-term solutions to the local landscaping challenges you're facing.
