Construction/Supervision

Accurate on-site measurements and surveying is available when necessary. Creating contoured maps with proper elevations make the bidding and installation go much smoother.

Brick walls and legs for basalt slab benches are being constructed. Having the right contractors really make this stuff look easy!

A crew installs plants based on the designer’s layout.  Boulders are set, drip zones are attached and mulch is installed to suppress weeds and keep plants healthy.

A half acre of lawn is installed in this wooded backyard. Over-seeding with shade grass is done in the fall to help it grow under the large fir trees.

Utilizing the lowest point for a retention pond, the parking lot and surrounding landscapes were graded to contain runoff. Islands and planting beds were placed to divert water to catch basins.

Rebar is tied together and concrete forms are installed for this curved pool patio. Proper drainage is ensured with2% slope and channel drains.

Freshly poured concrete is stripped revealing the inserts for the brick bands and steps on this bridge that will span between a waterfall and pond.

Brick masons painstakingly position each brick of this seating wall in West Linn.

A 70 ton crane is used to piece these pre-cut basalt columns back together in this water feature.

Fourteen-foot tall drilled column rocks are set in place with a 90 ton crane for this large water feature. Concrete pedestals with rebar were poured to support the rocks and protect the liner.

All of the columns are set in place, even the horizontal piece that will spill-over on both sides. It’s time to fill it up!

Getting a site survey done while in the construction phase gave us a complete picture of where the house sat on the property, as well as any potential grading problems that might arise for the driveway and landscaping.
