Expert Rockery Contractors Serving Marysville, Washington
Marysville's hillside neighborhoods have a tradition of natural stone rockeries, particularly in the older areas east of I-5 where properties were developed in the 1970s and 1980s. Natural stone rockeries are well-suited to Marysville's terrain — the glacial till soils, rolling hills, and Pacific Northwest climate all favor the natural stone approach over concrete alternatives. New Life Rockeries has been building and restoring rockeries in Marysville since 1975.
Marysville's glacial till soils require careful drainage engineering behind every rockery. The dense clay holds water, and without a proper drainage layer and drain pipe at the footing, hydrostatic pressure will eventually push stones out of alignment. We've repaired dozens of Marysville rockeries that failed because the original builder skipped the drainage step — it's the most common cause of rockery failure in this area.
We source our rockery stone from Pacific Northwest quarries — primarily basalt from Eastern Washington and granite from the Cascades. We select stone for structural integrity, appropriate size for the wall height, and the natural, weathered appearance that Marysville homeowners expect. For properties in Marysville's established neighborhoods, we often match the stone type and color of existing rockeries to maintain visual consistency.
Permits for rockeries over 4 feet in height are required from either the City of Marysville or Snohomish County, depending on your property's location. We determine the applicable permit authority during the estimate process and manage all applications on your behalf.

What We Build
Natural Stone Rockeries
Hand-placed granite, basalt, and fieldstone rockeries that integrate seamlessly with Pacific Northwest gardens. Each stone is selected for its natural character and placed to create a composition that looks native to the landscape.
Boulder Rockeries
Large-format boulder installations for dramatic landscape statements. We use equipment to place boulders precisely, creating rockeries that anchor the landscape and provide natural seating, garden borders, and focal points.
Terraced Rockeries
Multi-level rockery systems that transform sloped Marysville properties into beautiful, usable outdoor spaces. Terraced rockeries create planting pockets for native plants, ferns, and groundcovers that thrive in Pacific Northwest conditions.
Rock Garden Installation
Decorative rock gardens that combine natural stone with carefully selected plants. We design rock gardens that provide year-round interest with minimal maintenance — perfect for Pacific Northwest homeowners.
Rockery Repair & Restoration
Assessment and repair of existing rockeries that have shifted, settled, or deteriorated. We restore rockeries to their original integrity while improving drainage and stability.
Slope Stabilization Rockeries
Structural rockeries designed to stabilize slopes and prevent erosion while maintaining a natural appearance. Ideal for properties where a formal retaining wall would look out of place.
