Every challenge is met with an appropriate solution, from storm water amendments to locally sourced hardscape materials and sustainable landscapes.
Trying to stop or redirect water by building structures is not a lasting solution and will typically just move the water to another location with added force; think Grand Canyon.

An eroding, dry, sunny slope was difficult to mow, and carried sediment into the watershed (provided no wildlife value) and was unusable by the homeowners. Existing invasive vegetation blocked views, required constant shearing to clear the stairway access and provided no food source for wildlife. The design included a free-form terrace with a seat/retaining wall for viewing and a fire pit for gatherings.

We contracted with Petro to improve drainage away from our house. This entailed substantial soil amendments at the rear of the house and improved drainage from multiple downspouts. The majority of the work was conducted under a low deck, a difficult environment to say the least. The crew was hardworking and professional. we couldn't be more pleased with the results.

This is related just to the stormwater side of things, but we’ll return to them when the time comes for a landscaping redesign.
This is the second time we've done work with Petro, and both times we've been thrilled. Both of our jobs have probably been fairly small for Petro. Even then, Kathleen and Petro have made us feel like we were important customers, and took the time to explain everything in detail. Kathleen took the time to survey the house and look carefully at what was going on. She explained exactly what was happening, and what our different options were, even if it meant less revenue
