What is included in landscape installation?

Landscape installation covers the built and planted finish of a property: soil preparation, planting beds, trees and shrubs, ground covers, mulch, edging, sod, and the integration of those elements with irrigation, drainage, and hardscape. All Pro Landscaping installs complete landscapes as construction — the planting is the final layer over correctly prepared ground.

What plants grow well in Seattle-area landscapes?

Western Washington favors plants suited to wet winters, dry summers, and typically acidic soils. Well-chosen landscapes here mix Pacific Northwest natives and climate-adapted ornamentals matched to each spot's sun, shade, and moisture — the right plant in the right place outperforms any amount of maintenance on the wrong one.

When is the best time to plant in Western Washington?

Fall is the prime planting season in Western Washington — plants root through the mild, wet winter and enter their first summer established. Spring is a close second. Summer planting works with irrigation support, and the mild climate keeps the workable window long.

Do you design landscapes or just install them?

We plan and install. For most residential projects we develop the planting and layout plan with you as part of the project scope; we also install from plans prepared by landscape designers and architects, and we regularly serve as the installing contractor on commercial and multi-family projects.

Do you offer landscape maintenance?

No. All Pro Landscaping & Construction Services LLC is install-only. We deliver finished landscapes with establishment guidance — we do not provide mowing, pruning, fertilization, or maintenance contracts.

How much does landscape installation cost?

Cost is driven by planted area, plant sizes and quantities, soil preparation scope, hardscape and edging elements, irrigation integration, and access. All Pro Landscaping provides clear scope and cost expectations after a site evaluation.

✓ Right plant, right place — PNW-suited selection ✓ Soil and drainage handled before planting ✓ Install-only — finished landscapes, no contracts

A landscape is the last layer of a construction project, not the first. Soil preparation, grading, drainage, and irrigation determine whether plantings thrive — which is why we build those first and plant into ground that’s ready. Fall is the prime planting season in Western Washington; plants root through the mild wet winter and meet their first summer already established.

Landscape Work We Install

Planting Beds & Borders

Bed preparation, soil amendment, layout, and planting — with edging and mulch that keep the finished look holding its lines.

Trees & Shrubs

Structure plants selected for mature size and site conditions, planted correctly — depth, root handling, staking only where needed — so they establish instead of struggling.

PNW-Suited Plant Selection

Natives and climate-adapted ornamentals matched to each spot’s sun, shade, moisture, and our typically acidic soils. Right plant, right place beats maintenance every time.

Sod & Lawn Areas

Lawn areas installed as part of the whole — see the full sod installation scope for how we build lawns from the ground down.

Mulch, Rock & Ground Finishes

Bark, arborist chips, decorative rock, and ground covers — the finish layer that suppresses weeds, holds moisture through the dry season, and completes the look.

Integration With the Built Landscape

Plantings coordinated with irrigation zones, drainage, and hardscape — one plan, one sequence, one finished property.

The Order of Operations Matters

Most landscape disappointments trace to sequence, not plants. Ours is fixed:

Ground first — Grading, drainage corrections, and soil preparation — problems fixed now cost a fraction of fixing them under an established landscape.
Infrastructure second — Irrigation lines, lighting conduit, and edging in before anything is planted — no trenching through new beds later.
Structure third — Trees and large shrubs set the bones of the landscape and get first claim on the best ground.
Planting & finish — Beds planted, mulched, and finished; lawn areas sodded last so nothing rolls equipment over them.
Handoff — Establishment watering and first-season guidance. Install-only — you get a finished landscape, not a contract.

Have a designer’s plan — or need one built with you?

We install from professional plans and develop planting plans with homeowners. Either way, send us what you have.

Landscape Questions, Answered Straight

What’s included in landscape installation?

The complete planted finish: soil prep, beds, trees and shrubs, mulch, edging, sod — integrated with irrigation, drainage, and hardscape as one scope.

What grows well here?

Plants built for wet winters, dry summers, and acidic soil — PNW natives and adapted ornamentals matched to each spot’s sun and moisture. Right plant, right place.

When should we plant?

Fall first, spring second. Fall plantings root through our mild wet winter and meet their first summer established. Summer works with irrigation support.

Do you design or just install?

Both paths: we develop planting plans with homeowners, and we install from designer and architect plans — including as the installing contractor on commercial projects.

Do you maintain what you install?

No — install-only. Finished landscape, establishment guidance, no maintenance contracts.

What does it cost?

Area, plant sizes, soil prep, integration scope, and access decide it. Clear scope and cost expectations after a site evaluation.
