FAQs
How does Sage and Stone approach common Seattle landscaping issues like mossy lawns and weedy mulch beds?
We tackle moss and weeds with a holistic, sustainable approach tailored to our local climate. For moss, we address underlying drainage and sunlight issues through careful regrading, strategic pruning, and installing permeable hardscapes like patios and walkways. For weed-prone mulch beds, we use dense, native plantings to outcompete weeds, apply organic mulches that suppress growth while enriching soil, and provide seasonal maintenance plans that include manual removal and soil health management. Our focus is on creating resilient, low-maintenance landscapes that naturally resist these common problems.
What does your 'design-build' process involve for a project like a new patio or retaining wall?
Our design-build process means the same team handles both design and construction, ensuring a seamless experience. Led by Gabe Shulman, we start by understanding your family's needs—whether it's a patio for entertaining or a retaining wall for erosion control. We then create a custom design that integrates elements like irrigation, lighting, and plantings. Our skilled craftsmen execute the plan, from earthmoving and construction to final planting and irrigation setup. This integrated approach allows for clear communication, efficient problem-solving, and a finished outdoor space that matches the original vision while being built to last in Seattle's weather.
Do you offer ongoing maintenance for the gardens and landscapes you install?
Yes, we provide comprehensive landscape maintenance to keep your investment thriving. Our services include seasonal garden care, specialty pruning, irrigation system checks, lawn care, and tree care. We emphasize organic methods and water conservation, adjusting care for Seattle's seasons to promote plant health and reduce water use. As the team that designed and built your space, we have an in-depth understanding of its specific needs, allowing us to maintain its beauty and functionality efficiently. We offer flexible plans to fit your schedule, ensuring your outdoor area remains a joy for years.
