Hardscape Installation. Refined for the Northwest.
Lasting Form. Everyday Function.
Every pathway, wall, and surface play a role—guiding movement, managing water, or anchoring the look of a property. But without proper planning, hardscapes can quickly become more of a problem than a solution.
We approach every installation with long-term performance in mind. From layout to drainage, materials to finishes, our hardscapes are built to solve problems and elevate the property as a whole—not just fill a space. Whether it’s controlling erosion, defining access, or making a lasting impression, we install with purpose, so your investment holds its value.
Our Hardscape Specialties—and Why They Matter
From the moment we break ground, each installation is approached with function and longevity in mind. We assess slope, traffic, and water flow—then design features that solve problems before they appear.
Our hardscape services include:
• Gravel or Flagstone Pathways
• Retaining Walls & Terraced Beds
• Dry Creek Beds & Decorative Drainage
• Raised Garden Beds & Planter Boxes
• Border & Edging Installation
• Site Access Pads (Trash, Utility, Equipment)
These aren’t just upgrades—they’re infrastructure. Whether it’s stabilizing a slope or carving out utility access, our work adds clarity, resilience, and everyday ease to the landscape.
Each detail is shaped by intent—but it’s the process behind the build that ensures everything holds up, lines up, and lasts. Here’s how we make that happen:

What Our Customers Are Saying
“OMG! Stop looking for property maintenance RIGHT NOW. Matt is your guy! Matt came out and did an estimate that was way below anyone else. Then he came out and did a better job than anyone else. Everything was done EXACTLY as we had asked. No confusion, no needing to go back and fix things. And, he was done earlier than expected. Talk overdelivering. I could go on and on but, just contact Matt. Your problems are solved!”

“Cascade Properties Pro provided much more than the original agreed delivery and planting of 1 new tree, 7 shrubs, and transplanting 1 small tree. They did a wonderful job.
In addition, they added top soil, did extensive trimmings and improvements. They made our old plantings look new once again. They also did an excellent job of trimming a very large invasive tree that is constantly a problem from a neighbor.
Matthew and Parker were a hard working team, very knowledgeable, and provided a lot of possibilities. Cascade Property Pros were referred to us and we would gladly refer them as well.”

“Cascade Property Pros exceeded my expectations! Matt, the owner, is incredibly knowledgeable—especially when it comes to native plants and how to use them to naturally outcompete weeds. He took the time to explain his approach and helped me make smart, sustainable choices for my yard.
He was punctual, professional, and delivered exactly what he promised in his bid. One detail that really stood out: Matt used a laser pointer to identify the exact tree branches I wanted trimmed. It was such a thoughtful, precise way to make sure everything was done exactly how I envisioned.
If you’re looking for high-quality landscaping with true expertise behind it, I can’t recommend Cascade Property Pros enough.”

FAQs
1. How do I know if my property is suitable for hardscape features like retaining walls, patios, or paths?
Before recommending any hardscape installation, we assess site conditions including grade, drainage, soil type, and access. Slopes may call for retaining walls or terracing; poorly drained areas may require sub-base correction or proper slope design. Not every surface should be paved—and sometimes the best value is knowing where not to install hardscape. We evaluate the constraints and opportunities of your site before putting a design on paper, so you get features that last and add long-term function—not costly liabilities.
2. What factors affect the longevity of hardscapes in the Pacific Northwest?
Material choice, site prep, drainage, and installation technique all impact lifespan. Freeze-thaw cycles, heavy rainfall, and root competition can degrade poorly built hardscapes quickly. That’s why we use regionally proven products and build to exceed the minimums. Every installation includes slope planning, base compaction, and water flow control. We don’t just aim for durability—we build to avoid repairs altogether.
3. What kind of maintenance will my hardscape require?
Most well-installed hardscapes are low-maintenance, but no installation is zero-maintenance. Annual joint sanding, weed suppression, and surface cleaning help prevent early failure. For areas with high foot traffic or near vegetation, regular inspections ensure drainage remains intact and shifting doesn’t begin. We offer upkeep for every installation we provide, but we also equip you with clear care recommendations to help your investment hold up for the long run.
4. Will adding hardscape features increase the value or appeal of my property?
Yes—when done right. Professionally installed hardscapes improve functionality, control erosion, define space, and elevate curb appeal. For commercial properties, they reinforce access and visual clarity. For residential properties, they provide usable outdoor space and improve first impressions. The key is to align design with purpose. We don’t install features to fill space—we build systems that anchor and improve the property as a whole.
5. How much will a hardscape project cost—and what does that include?
Pricing depends on materials, square footage, access, drainage requirements, and finish details. Every quote we provide includes excavation, base prep, installation, and debris cleanup—no hidden fees or vague allowances. We also provide clear timelines and realistic expectations. Whether it’s a simple gravel walkway or a multi-tiered retaining system, we aim to deliver clarity before the job begins, not after.
