Ross NW Watergardens - Portland's Expert Landscaping Services

Our process is built on collaboration. We start by getting to know you, your style, and how you use your outdoor space. For a patio or walkway, we'll discuss materials—like local stone or pavers that suit Portland's climate—and layout options that work with your property's specific drainage and sun exposure. We trade ideas through pictures and design drafts until the plan feels uniquely yours, ensuring it's both beautiful and functional for our wet winters and dry summers.

Absolutely. As a design/build firm with a long history in irrigation, we tackle these common Portland issues directly. We'll assess your entire system for leaks and inefficiencies, often recommending a modern, water-smart irrigation design that conserves water and delivers it evenly to prevent dry spots. For the lawn, we don't just patch it; we evaluate soil health, drainage, and grass type to create a lasting solution that thrives in our local climate, often integrating it into a broader landscape plan.

Yes, we are a true design/build firm. From the initial concept and landscape design to the final construction and planting, our in-house team manages it all. This includes specialized work like constructing durable retaining walls, which are crucial for managing slopes on many Portland properties. Having our designers and craftsmen work together under one roof ensures seamless communication, consistent quality, and that the finished project matches the vision we created with you.
