(B&D) New Life Rockeries is dedicated to the idea of creating the individually customized and unique landscapes for our Bellevue clients. Our vision is to transform your property into a place that is both beautiful and functional. We take what is best about your lawn, garden, or backyard, and enhance its existing aesthetics with unique stone and rock structures, beautiful and easy to care for plants and colorful rockeries that add a simple and elegant touch of class to any outdoor space.
Our highly skilled and experienced team of experts work closely with you to evaluate your chosen outdoor space and the overall environmental structure of your Bellevue property. Once we have determined the specific needs and potential of your space, we will recommend the specific rocks, plants, and arrangement we know will make your outdoor space into something that’s a joy to behold. Once you approve the design, our team will do all the heavy lifting, reshaping, and other hard work that goes into creating a beautiful outdoor space.
We are so impressed by New Life Rockeries! We’ve worked with a LOT of different contractors over the past few years trying to turn a fixer upper into our home and NLR is easily the best company we’ve worked with. Alonso and his team aren’t just hardworking and meticulous, they are artists who transformed our front yard. You can tell that they really care about their work and each other. Alonso would come by a couple of times a week to chat with us, help out the crew if needed, and make sure they had everything they needed. Bobby, who gave us the estimate, also checked in with us. He did everything he could to keep the price within our budget, even after a few changes to the design. The craftsmanship that’s gone into these walls is one of a kind. Thank you so much NLR!!
New Life Rockeries was so easy to work with on every step of the process. They heard our hopes/goals, provided awesome professional feedback to make it even better than our hopes, and got the job done! They started sooner than we expected, were very detailed focused (since I’m working form home I’d spy a little and was impressed by how they would spend the time to get each stone perfect), and they came in under budget! This was not a little project either, they leveled a weird hill we had, moved an old rock wall (even built a new rock wall with the old stones to another part of the yard that needed), and built a beautiful new patio and retaining wall with a built-in bench. Can’t recommend them enough and will get more projects done by them in the future! *In the photos you will see a concrete wall, they did not do that ugly thing. That is getting covered by a fence that will sit on-top of the lovely wall New Life built.
Absolutely fantastic. We had the New Life team replace our failing retaining wall and make some steps from our front to back yard and an area for a fire pit. They stabilized our wall despite torrential rain while they were working. Their work was surgically precise and our neighbors were also really happy. They replaced an ugly, rotten wall with a beautiful terraced one in terrible weather and stayed on budget doing so. They were so easy to work with and we are so happy with the result. Thank you!!

Our landscaping team uses a wide variety of materials to create specific effects. Our selection of materials is our artist’s palette for matching your property’s lighting, environment, and use to create your approved design. Here is a short summary of the many materials we use to make your outdoor space into a masterpiece:
In some cases, the design and location of your rockery may require the installation of a retaining wall. Should a retaining wall contractors be deemed necessary, our skilled and experienced design and installation team will discuss possible layout and placement of the wall, why a wall is essential to preserving your landscaping installations, selecting the best materials for creating the wall, and which materials will support the overall landscaping design you’ve selected. Once you agree to the design and installation, we will get to work making it happen for you.
Our installation teams use the following three varieties of rock for building retaining walls.
One Man/Half Man Rock
These are the first choice of rock for smaller walls that will be installed by hand. The terms “half man” and “one man” rocks don’t refer to how many people you need to shift/carry the rock during installation — it actually refers to what the average man can lever with a crowbar. We always schedule enough crew members to ensure that our team can complete your retaining wall installation in a day or less.
Two to Three Man Rock
For the sake of safety and convenience, these rocks are moved and placed using a machine. This term is derived from how we manage installation: one man on the ground, one man operating the machine, and one man responsible for driving the truck loaded with building materials. Two and three man rock installations for retaining walls are the most common installations we do at B&D Rockeries. The mini-machine we send out for wall installations is specially engineered to get the job done quickly and economically. With the assistance of this machine, we can install 400-600 square feet a day on average (the size and available access to your Bellvue property for our truck and machinery may impact installation time)
Boulders
Due to their rounded edges and smoother surface, boulders do not generally make the best building materials for retaining walls. While they may add to a rock wall for aesthetic purposes, boulders are generally better employed as decorative additions to a property.
