Landscape design/build process and results:

Darlene had done a tasteful and imaginative remodel of her 70’s Fox Island home overlooking Hale Passage with Mt. Rainier as the backdrop. She wanted a better feeling of connection between the main floor deck and the two levels of the yard. A jungle of juniper had to go! A rickety bench at a scenic overlook needed a real ‘sense of place’. The appearance was not very appealing; random patches of lawn, multiple levels and no sprinklers meant high maintenance.

Darlene wanted larger outdoor living spaces, a better connection between the different yard levels, more color and less maintenance. It was apparent that the first step would be to start with a conceptual plan. We took measurements and pictures, making note of existing plants that could be saved in the landscape. Special attention was paid to sweeping views and how to best take advantage of the existing topography.

The Landscape Conceptual Plan was prepared. It showed the new garden layout with larger outdoor living spaces, a cascading creek flowing into the lower level pond and a new sitting area and arbor to replace the rickety old bench. The plant scheme was low maintenance, but varied in texture, color and form to add year-round interest. This concept plan also helped us start working on a landscape construction estimate. After the initial presentation, we made a few changes and fine-tuned the landscape plan.

A fresh new look and enlarged outdoor entertaining area was created. See the transformation!

We worked through the details, and contracts were signed. The work was scheduled and completed within a month and a half. What fun!

Darlene now has what she envisioned, and we had the pleasure of installing this beautiful and functional landscape, adding to Olympic Landscape’s ever growing list of satisfied landscape design/build customers in Gig Harbor, WA.

What Customers Say About Our Gig Harbor Landscape Design

Gig Harbor, WA landscape design testimonial from a customer as seen in South Sound Magazine.
Puget Sound Washington Landscape Design Testimonial

“Olympic was able to transform an overgrown hillside, and blend the elements of the NW that we were looking for into a picturesque mountain stream. The sound of the water fills the yard with a sense of serenity – especially when the up lighting transforms the landscape. John & Kip brought tremendous energy to the project which made it fun to work on.”

Karen L. – Gig Harbor, WA

“John is really good. I had a few different designers that just didn’t work. One seemed to know a lot, spent some time here, then came back to me and said, “I really can’t do this – I usually just start setting out plants… and go from there. John started out similar as the others, looking at my pictures and nodding his head. My husband and I just said (later) we’d see what happened. When he came back we saw what he ad done and we just looked at each other – we couldn’t believe it, he had really listened!”
Cynthia S. – Gig Harbor, WA

Susan H. – Fox Island, WA

“I would like you to know how much we appreciated Jonathan and the work he performed for us at our home on Fox Island. He is personable, thorough, knowledgeable, professional and a great ambassador for Olympic Irrigation. What impressed us most was his commitment to sticking with the job – even though it took him until after 8 PM to complete it. He is a winner and I trust that this is recognized within your organization. As a result of his persistence I believe we have finally solved the irrigation problem that has been bugging us for the past three years!”
Conor B. – Fox Island, WA
