Angkorscape designs landscapes for Kirkland's lakefront lifestyle, from Moss Bay to Juanita. Every project starts in 3D, built by one team, backed by a 5-year warranty and 548 completed projects.
Built For Properties Near the Shoreline
Build on a Kirkland slope without proper grading, and heavy seasonal rainfall will find the weak point in your yard, causing erosion or pooling water where you least expect it. Kirkland's Pacific Northwest climate brings wet winters and dry summers, and any landscape design here has to plan for both.
Properties near Lake Washington and greenway areas also face local regulations on altering significant slopes or removing mature trees, so checking those rules before construction starts is non-negotiable. Get that wrong, and a project can stall before it starts.
Importantly, our landscape designers plan around:
What's Included
Every service below connects design and construction under one roof, giving you an easy way to bring your vision to life without juggling separate contractors.
The Difference Experience Makes
Washington State Contractor License ANGKOI*750PA is confirmed and current for every property we work on in Kirkland.
We've served Kirkland and the surrounding area since 2019, and that time has taught us how sloped, lakeside lots actually behave here.
A 5-year workmanship warranty comes standard on every job, so problems get fixed without a second bill.
548 completed projects across Greater Seattle give us a solid reference point for what works on properties like yours.
Coverage Across the City
A waterfront lot in Moss Bay and a sloped parcel up in Finn Hill are two different design problems. We plan for the one you have.
From First Call to Final Walkthrough
Most Kirkland projects start at $75,000 and average around $150,000. Design typically takes two to four weeks. If timing's flexible, starting before the fall rains sets construction up on dry ground.
We start with your goals, your budget, and what the space needs to do for your household day-to-day.
Soil, slope, drainage, and lot size all get assessed before a design gets drawn.
We build a rendering you can actually walk through, adjusting details together until it's right.
Any local regulations on slope work or tree removal get handled in-house before construction starts.
One crew sees the job through from groundbreaking to final walkthrough.
Reviews From Kirkland Homeowners
Kirkland clients consistently mention the same things: reliable communication, a team that understands sloped and shoreline lots, and a finished landscape that matches what was designed from day one.
I spent a lot of time researching different landscape designers, and without a doubt Angkorscape had the aesthetic I was looking for. The process was collaborative and they nailed what I was looking within my budget restraints.
If I had to sum it up, Angkorscape was worth every penny! Their design, communication, expertise, time and patience made this busy mom so appreciative to have someone do this project with such care. It was one less thing I had to juggle or worry about on top of everything else.
We started with their Conceptual Design to sort out layout and materials, then upgraded to the Build Tier once we were ready to pull the trigger. The in-person visit and site measurements made the plan feel very dialed-in, and the 3D views helped us see the space before anything was built. Smooth handoff into construction and the results match the design.
We just finished a large project and are extremely happy with the results. Every step along the way was organized, quick, and responsive. Starting with a great 3D model, selecting the materials, construction, plant selection, and finally now enjoying the finished backyard we want to thank everyone involved.
Thy and his crew were incredible to work with from design through to the end product. They are friendly, kind and creative. We absolutely love the end result - high quality that looks better than we could have expected. Best of all, the project finished on time and on budget. I highly recommend Angkorscape to anyone that’s looking for landscaping work.
I selected them to design and construct all landscaping around my house even they were not the lowest bid, but I believe hiring the same company to do a "design and build" can achieve the best result and quality to reflect the design. They helped me to select stones in reasonable price to meet my budget.
A Job Worth Showing Off
We recently completed a front yard transformation in Kirkland that changed the entire look of the house and property, improving curb appeal and giving the homeowners a space they're proud to come home to.
Principles Behind the Work
Every project we take on focuses on materials and plant choices that perform in this climate, not just ones that look good on day one. We choose plants that can actually grow and thrive here, season after season.
Choosing regional evergreens keeps greenery through Kirkland's winters, and native plants reduce long-term water and maintenance needs.
Rain gardens filter runoff from roofs and driveways naturally, and permeable hardscapes let rainwater infiltrate the ground instead of pooling.
Wildlife-friendly plants are especially valuable near Kirkland's greenway areas, supporting the local environment while keeping the yard low-maintenance.
Low-glare landscape lighting improves safety and ambiance in outdoor spaces without disrupting the neighborhood after dark.
Full-Service, Not Piecemeal
A full outdoor space works best when the value comes from one team owning both the design and the build, so nothing gets lost in the handoff. Even a smaller update lands better planned as part of the whole property than as a one-off.
Schedule a consultation and walk through a full 3D design of your Kirkland property before construction begins.
