When your home or business is positioned on a hillside, there are some issues that need to be considered.

• Is the hillside stable or will it begin to shift when the ground becomes saturated?
• Is the there an adequate water drainage system in place?
• Will the landscaping and ground cover protect against erosion?
• Does the hillside reduce your living space?

You may not know the answers to these questions. Our landscaping team can help you determine if your hillside is protected against mud slides, falling rock, and unstable trees.

Retaining Walls

Two of the most effective landscaping features used to create additional living space for a home built on a steep slope are retaining walls and landscape terracing.

Retaining walls are primarily for holding back earth and increasing stability. Although landscape terracing serves the same purpose, it also allows for addition plantings, pathways through your landscape, and uniqueness to the garden by providing various levels. These rock outcroppings offer an excellent area for plants that can thrive with very little soil and flourish from the warmth of the rock.

Water Drainage Systems

We install effective water drainage systems and rain garden designs -- giving you peace of mind. There is no way we can guarantee that the forces of nature won't have an ill effect on your property, but we lean on our knowledge and experience to create hillside landscaping that will hold up to the elements and protect your landscape through all weather conditions.
