Low Maintenance Landscaping in Seattle

Maintaining a beautiful yard can be a time-consuming and labor-intensive endeavor, especially in Seattle, where the unique climate and rainy seasons can complicate landscaping efforts. For homeowners and small property managers, the challenge is finding a balance between aesthetics and upkeep. Low maintenance landscaping offers a solution, allowing you to enjoy a beautiful outdoor space without the constant hassle of regular care.

Low maintenance landscaping focuses on selecting plants, materials, and designs that require minimal attention and upkeep. It’s about creating a sustainable outdoor environment that enhances your property’s curb appeal while saving you time and effort.


Our Approach

  • Native Plant Selection: We prioritize using native plants that thrive in Seattle’s climate, requiring less water and maintenance.
  • Mulching and Ground Covers: Utilizing mulch and low-growing ground covers reduces weeds and retains soil moisture.
  • Efficient Irrigation: We recommend installing drip irrigation systems that conserve water and ensure plants receive consistent moisture.
  • Hardscaping Features: Incorporating patios, pathways, and decorative stones minimizes lawn space and reduces mowing requirements.

We’re a low-maintenance landscaping crew. Our goal is fewer problems between visits and less work for you.


Service Cadences

  • Quarterly: Ideal for seasonal deep cleaning, including spring and fall clean-ups, plus two tune-ups to keep your landscape looking fresh.
  • Bi-Monthly: Balanced care for most yards, perfect for properties that need regular attention without overwhelming upkeep.
  • Monthly: Best for high-visibility properties and rentals that require more frequent maintenance to maintain a pristine appearance.

What’s Included

  • Weed Control: Regular removal of weeds to keep your landscape clean and healthy.
  • Pruning and Trimming: Careful pruning of shrubs and trees to promote healthy growth and an attractive shape.
  • Mulch Refresh: Adding fresh mulch to beds for better moisture retention and a polished look.
  • Lawn Care: Lawn mowing and edging, if applicable, to keep grass neat and tidy.
  • Seasonal Clean-Up: Removing debris, leaves, and other clutter during seasonal changes to maintain a clear space.

Why It Matters

  • Safety: A well-maintained yard reduces hazards like tripping over overgrown plants or slipping on wet leaves.
  • Curb Appeal: Investing in low maintenance landscaping significantly boosts the aesthetic value of your property, making it more appealing to visitors and potential buyers.
  • Drainage: Properly designed landscapes improve drainage, minimizing water pooling and potential damage to your foundation.
  • Maintenance Savings: Reducing the time and resources spent on upkeep allows you to redirect your energy towards enjoying your outdoor space instead of working in it.

  2. Set Your Schedule: Choose from quarterly, bi-monthly, or monthly service options that fit your needs.
  3. Service Day: Our team will arrive to clear, prune, and edge your landscape, with optional mulch or gravel refresh services available.
