Stones and Gravel in Seattle

Stones and gravel are essential materials for landscaping and outdoor projects in Seattle. They offer practical benefits such as improved drainage, reduced erosion, and enhanced curb appeal. However, using the right types and quantities can be a challenge for homeowners and small property managers. In this article, we’ll explore the various applications of stones and gravel, the best practices for installation, and how to maintain these features in your yard.


Our Approach

  • Consultation: We start with a discussion to understand your needs, preferences, and the specific challenges of your property.
  • Material Selection: Based on your landscape, we help you choose the right type of stones or gravel, considering factors like size, color, and drainage needs.
  • Installation: Our experienced team ensures that stones and gravel are laid down correctly for long-lasting results and aesthetic appeal.
  • Maintenance Support: We provide ongoing maintenance options to keep your stone and gravel features looking their best throughout the year.

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


Service Cadences

  • Quarterly: Spring and fall deep clean, plus two tune-ups to refresh your landscape.
  • Bi-Monthly: Balanced care for most yards, ensuring that stones and gravel remain intact and well-maintained.
  • Monthly: High-visibility properties and rentals receive frequent attention to keep everything looking sharp.

What’s Included

  • Initial Assessment: A thorough evaluation of your property to determine the best use of stones and gravel.
  • Installation Services: Professional laying of gravel or stones, ensuring proper drainage and aesthetics.
  • Maintenance Visits: Regular check-ins to remove debris, replenish materials, and ensure proper drainage.
  • Consultation on Add-Ons: Opportunities to integrate additional landscaping elements, such as plants or edging.
  • Care Tips: Simple advice on how to maintain your stone and gravel features between visits.

Why It Matters

  • Improved Drainage: Properly installed gravel can prevent water pooling and flooding in your yard, especially in Seattle’s rainy climate.
  • Erosion Control: Stones and gravel help stabilize soil and prevent erosion on slopes or in garden beds.
  • Aesthetic Appeal: Decorative stones can enhance the overall look of your property, adding texture and color.
  • Low Maintenance: Once installed, stone and gravel areas require minimal upkeep compared to traditional lawns or flower beds.

  2. Set Your Schedule: Choose a service cadence that works for you—quarterly, bi-monthly, or monthly.
  3. Service Day: Our team will arrive to clear debris, prune plants, and edge your garden beds as needed. We also offer optional mulch or gravel refresh services.
