Hello, aspiring backyard visionary!
Imagine stepping into your backyard and feeling as though you’ve entered a personal sanctuary, one that mirrors your taste, complements your lifestyle, and harmonizes with the natural charm of our beautiful Washington state. With the right outdoor landscape contractor, that vision can become a reality. That is the essence of custom landscape design, and it’s closer within reach than you might think.
Let’s delve into how we can craft that special outdoor magic, just for you…
Every masterpiece starts with a canvas, and in landscape architecture, your property is our’s. Think of your backyard as a reflection of your personality. Are you drawn to the sleek lines of modern hardscape design or the tranquil flow of a Zen garden? Together, we’ll create a backyard design that isn’t just aesthetically pleasing, but is uniquely you.
Your outdoor space should do more than just ‘look pretty’—it should live and breathe alongside you. Do you enjoy hosting summer parties? Let’s talk about an outdoor kitchen or a sprawling patio. Fond of quiet evenings with a book? A secluded garden nook could be your perfect chapter—just a few of the many Outdoor Living Space ideas we can bring to life. Our landscape design process is focused on how your outdoor space will complement and enhance your daily life.
Living in areas like Snohomish, King, or Pierce County, we are blessed with stunning natural scenery. Our designs pay homage to this beauty. We take into account the existing flora and the natural lay of your land. Instead of working against these elements, we integrate them, crafting a seamless blend between your property and the paradise we create together.
Hardscape design is where art meets function. It’s the stone pathway that guides you through your garden, the elegant fireplace where family gathers on cool nights, and the sturdy, yet stylish retaining walls that define and protect your spaces. It’s not just about laying stones; it’s about laying the foundation for memories.
Envision collaborating with a team that brings your dreams to life, that listens and sketches until your vision is reflected in every line of the landscape architecture blueprint. That’s our promise to you, as we work hand-in-hand to transform your backyard into your personal paradise.
So, whether you reside in Snohomish County’s tranquil neighborhoods, the vibrant communities of King County, or the picturesque landscapes of Pierce County, we at Angkorscape are passionate about personalizing your outdoor space.

The timeline depends on the scope of your project, but most residential landscaping jobs range from a few days to several weeks. Larger design-build projects involving hardscaping, irrigation, and planting can take four to eight weeks from start to finish.
Spring and early fall are ideal for most landscaping work in the Pacific Northwest. Spring allows plants to establish before summer heat, while fall gives roots time to develop before winter. That said, planning should begin months in advance to secure your spot on a contractor's schedule.
Professional landscaping costs vary widely based on the size of your yard, materials chosen, and complexity of the design. Basic lawn and planting projects may start in the low thousands, while full design-build backyard transformations can range from $20,000 to $100,000 or more.
Some landscaping projects require permits, particularly those involving retaining walls, grading, drainage changes, or large structures like pergolas and outdoor kitchens. A professional contractor like Angkorscape handles the permitting process as part of the project.
Look for a company with a strong portfolio of completed projects, verifiable reviews, clear communication, and a transparent design process. An all-in-one design-build firm is ideal because it keeps design and construction aligned under one team.
Regular maintenance includes mowing, pruning, fertilizing, and seasonal clean-ups. Your contractor should provide a maintenance plan tailored to the specific plants and materials used in your project to keep everything looking its best year-round.
