Overview

Full-Service Landscape Design & Contracting in North Bend, Washington

North Bend homeowners trust New Life Rockeries for complete outdoor living transformations. We design, permit, and build every element of your outdoor space — from garden design and planting to patios, retaining walls, rockeries, and drainage systems — all under one contract with one team.

Our North Bend landscape design projects begin with a thorough site assessment. We evaluate your property's topography, soil conditions, drainage patterns, and how you intend to use the space. From that assessment, we develop a design that solves real problems and creates lasting value — not just a pretty rendering that ignores site realities.

North Bend is characterized by its challenging topography, including steep slopes and areas susceptible to geological hazards. The region's soil often consists of glacial till, which, combined with heavy rainfall, can lead to saturated conditions and significant drainage issues. These factors contribute to erosion and landslide risks, making robust retaining walls and rockeries essential for property stability.

With 50 years of experience building across the greater Seattle area, we understand the specific challenges of North Bend properties — Pacific Northwest soils, significant rainfall, and the steep terrain that defines so many local lots. Our designs are grounded in that knowledge and built to perform for decades.

Our crews have completed hundreds of landscape design and contracting projects across King and Snohomish Counties. We're licensed, bonded, and insured in Washington State, and we never ask for payment until the job is done to your satisfaction.

The City of North Bend Building Department requires a permit for retaining walls exceeding four feet in height, measured from the bottom of the footing to the top of the wall. Engineered plans may be required for certain applications to ensure structural integrity.

A homeowner in the Edgewick neighborhood of North Bend recently faced significant erosion on their sloped property due to heavy rains. We designed and installed a multi-tiered retaining wall system, incorporating proper drainage, to stabilize the hillside and create usable terraced garden spaces, effectively mitigating future erosion concerns.
