Expert Rockery Contractors in the Greater Seattle Area

A rockery is one of the most distinctly Pacific Northwest landscape features — natural stone arranged to work with the land, creating structure, beauty, and habitat all at once. At New Life Rockeries, we've been building rockeries across the greater Seattle area for over 50 years, and we understand the materials, the terrain, and the plants that make a rockery thrive in this climate.

Our rockery installations use natural granite, basalt, and fieldstone sourced from Pacific Northwest quarries. We select each stone for its shape, texture, and color, then place it to create a composition that looks as though it has always been part of the landscape. The result is a rockery that is both structurally sound and visually striking.

Whether you're looking to stabilize a gentle slope, create a garden focal point, or transform an entire hillside, our team brings the same level of craft and attention to every project. We handle site preparation, drainage, stone placement, and planting guidance so your rockery is set up for long-term success.

Our crews have built hundreds of rockeries across King and Snohomish Counties — from small decorative rock gardens to large-scale slope stabilization projects. We'll never ask for payment until the job is done to your satisfaction.

Call Us

A rockery is a naturalistic arrangement of stones, typically used to create garden features, stabilize gentle slopes, or add visual interest to a landscape. Unlike a retaining wall, which is an engineered structure designed to resist significant lateral earth pressure, a rockery is more informal and is generally used for slopes under 3 feet or for decorative purposes. Rockeries are a quintessential Pacific Northwest landscape feature because they work beautifully with the region's native plants and natural stone.
