Professional local services tailored to your needs

Sprinkler Repair

Dry patches and pooling often point to a failing irrigation component. We test sprinkler heads, valves, and supply lines, then repair leaks or coverage problems before plants and lawn suffer.

Landscape designer

Your yard should connect naturally with the house, not look pieced together. We develop site plans around soil, slope, drainage, planting zones, and the way you use each outdoor space.

Pond contractor

A pond can bring movement, sound, and habitat to a plain garden. We install pond basins, pumps, filtration, aquatic planting, and stone edges for a balanced water feature.

Concrete Patio Installation

A concrete patio creates a stable base for dining, grilling, and gathering outdoors. We prepare the subgrade, set forms, place reinforcement, and finish the slab for lasting daily use.

Deck Installation

More usable outdoor space starts with a deck planned around your doors and garden. Our installation covers ledger connections, framing, decking boards, stairs, and guardrails for a finished place to relax.

Drainage Solutions

Standing water can damage lawns, foundations, and planting beds after heavy rain. We trace runoff paths and install catch basins, channel drains, or grading improvements that move water away.

Drought-Tolerant Landscaping

A water-wise yard stays attractive without demanding constant irrigation. We combine low-water perennials, ornamental grasses, mulch, and efficient planting layouts for color that fits dry summer conditions.

Fire Pit Installation

A built-in fire pit gives evening gatherings a clear outdoor focus. We prepare the base and install fire-rated block, a steel burner or wood-burning bowl, and surrounding seating space.

French Drain Installation

Persistent soggy ground needs more than surface cleanup. We install perforated drain pipe in a gravel trench with filter fabric, directing subsurface water away from lawns, walkways, and foundations.

About

Design-LED outdoor construction for Issaquah homes

Our Landscape Architect Company work brings design thinking to planting, patios, drainage, decks, and outdoor living areas. Adam Gorski founded the firm in 1997 after studying Landscape Architecture at Cornell University. He combines formal design training with hands-on construction knowledge, so each project connects its layout, materials, and site needs. We begin with the property itself. Our team reviews soil, slope, and drainage before shaping a plan, then guides material choices and construction. That approach helps outdoor spaces work as one system, from a French drain and retaining wall to planting beds, lighting, and a concrete patio. The work suits homeowners who want a clear path from an early idea to a finished yard. We serve Issaquah and nearby Eastside communities, along with other King County locations, and our service list covers both repairs and full outdoor improvements.

Why does my yard stay wet after rain, and when should a landscape design firm review it?

Landscape architecture services should review persistent wet areas before patio, planting, or retaining wall work begins. Drainage solutions may include grading changes, a French drain, or related site work after the water path is understood. Early review helps connect drainage with plant choices and hardscape placement, so the finished yard works as one plan.

Common Customer Situations in Issaquah

Your backyard feels disconnected

You have a patio, lawn, planting beds, or a deck, but the yard lacks a clear flow. Different materials may stop at awkward points, and outdoor areas may not support how your household spends time outside. A coordinated design can connect paths, seating, planting, lighting, and grade changes. We help turn separate features into one usable plan for the property.

Water keeps collecting near your home

You notice soggy soil, standing water, or runoff near a patio or foundation after wet weather. Adding plants or hardscape before fixing the drainage path can create more trouble later. We look at slope, soil, and water movement before planning the next feature. A French drain or other drainage solution may form part of a wider yard plan.

You want outdoor space that lasts

You may want a fire pit, pond, walkway, retaining wall, or patio, but the choices feel hard to coordinate. Materials must suit the site, and each feature needs a sensible place within the yard. We connect design decisions with construction details, planting, and maintenance needs. You receive a clear plan for building an outdoor space that fits your property.

FAQ

Questions About Landscape Architecture Services

Who provides full backyard design and construction in Issaquah?

LandscaperIssaquahwa.com provides design and construction for planted areas, patios, walkways, retaining walls, water features, lighting, and outdoor living spaces. Adam Gorski leads the work with formal landscape architecture education and construction experience. The process connects site review, material choices, planting plans, and construction so each part supports the property as a whole.

What changes the cost of a full backyard design?

Backyard design cost depends on site conditions, project scope, materials, drainage work, structures, planting, and construction access. A sloped yard may need retaining walls or drainage solutions before other work begins. We review the property and requested features, then explain what the quote includes. You can request a quote based on your plans and site needs.

Should I hire a landscape designer or a general landscaping contractor?

A landscape designer focuses on spatial planning, planting, materials, and how each outdoor feature fits the property. A general contractor may focus more narrowly on construction tasks. Our design-to-build approach connects custom planting plans, patios, decks, drainage, lighting, and construction details. That approach suits homeowners who want one coordinated plan for a larger outdoor project.

What should I prepare before a backyard design consultation?

Photos, rough measurements, drainage concerns, access details, and a list of desired features help shape the first discussion. Share ideas for patios, decks, fire pits, ponds, planting, or lighting. We also need to understand how you use the yard and which areas cause problems. Clear goals help us assess the site and define the project scope.

How do drainage problems affect patio, deck, and planting plans?

Drainage problems can affect grading, foundation areas, planting health, and the long-term use of patios or decks. Standing water, soggy soil, and runoff paths show where the site needs attention. We assess soil, slope, and drainage before selecting materials or placing features. Solutions may include French drains, drainage changes, or revised planting areas.

What warranty applies to a new outdoor installation?

Most installations include a one-year warranty, while non-irrigated plantings are excluded. The warranty applies within the terms provided for the installation, so the project scope matters. We can explain the coverage for your planned work, including hardscape features, structures, lighting, and planted areas. Regular maintenance still matters for the long-term condition of any outdoor space.
