We Specialize in Renovation
We Transform Hills and Slopes into Beautiful Backdrops
Living in King County means living with hills and unique challenges. Our Renovation team can install retaining walls, grading, lawn renovations, structural pruning, irrigation, and seasonal cleanups.
Everyone in our part of the world (and especially the Northwest) lives with some kind of slope. We level things out so we have some usable space where perhaps space is a premium. How we hold back the soil varies as much as the type of materials that can be used for each project.
Most of the time, style and price will dictate what materials to choose, however in our region, rock and concrete are generally the preferred choices. They are abundant and move economical than typically cast in place concrete. Generally what to use is in the same context of the overall site and overall purpose.
No Size Too Large, No Size Too Small.
Sometimes Mother Nature can deliver some pretty harsh seasons to the Pacific Northwest. Sometimes she simply stands in the way of providing an ideal environment for your landscape to grow. When this happens a landscape cleanup may be warranted. Or perhaps, when one of our well known storms rolls through making your landscape look as though a small battle was waged. We can help with that as well.
Our renovation teams are well trained and prepared to bring your yard back to life. Whether it be renovating a dead or dying lawn, installing a new lawn, or simply remaking an area that is more cohesive for the habitat. Or, perhaps you would like to have small tress removed, transplanted, or installed. We do it all!
Based on the current condition of your lawn and soil, we can offer multiple ways to renovate, redo, or install a new lawn.
We can install sod, hydroseed, or possibly cultivate your existing lawn back to a very healthy turf.
Sometimes your home or business need a simple landscaping facelift to restore their existing charm. Damage from inclement weather or overgrowth can make once-beautiful landscaping look messy and neglected. With a landscape renovation from Bear Creek Landscaping, you can transform your yard without having to start from scratch. We’ll add, remove, prune and reorganize until your yard looks fresh and tidy.
Overgrown trees and plant beds can make elegant home landscaping look cluttered and unsightly. Maintaining spacing between plants makes your gardens look cleaner and bigger. Plants grow quickly and need to be trimmed back, pruned, and re-shaped over time to maintain proper spacing. Sometimes shrubs that have outgrown their location can be moved to other spots on the property.
Nothing makes a fresh coat of paint on the outside of your house pop like a freshly turned bed of mulch. Any time you’re making updates to your house, coordinate them with landscape renovation to balance out your home and garden. Landscaping also helps to ensure that your new home addition or renovation matches your existing construction from the outside.
Whether a few damaged shrubs need to be matched and replaced or your garden needs a full renovation, we deliver a fresh new look and feel to the outside of your home. Bear Creek Landscaping can revitalize your property without disrupting your existing landscape. Ready for landscaping design from our experienced team?
