One of the most important things one can do to protect their landscape is to install an irrigation system. With Downey Landscaping, we can install this for you in house. Irrigation consists of the following:

  • Trenching for irrigation pipes

  • Irrigation valves installation

Retaining walls

We love building retaining walls. Retaining walls can add curb appeal, level the grade of your property, and help solve erosion issues. Three main types of retaining walls:

  • Block walls

  • Timber walls constructed of 6x6 post

  • Boulder walls


Walkways

Walkways always add curb appeal to a property. There are many options to choose from but our favorite is a flagstone slab walk way. With each slab weighing a few hundred pounds, they are sure to stay in place for many years. Other options would include:

  • Stepping stones

  • Stepping stones in egg rock or pea gravel

  • Slate chips

  • Mortared flagstone

  • Concrete

Boulders and steps

Accent boulders are a must in our opinion. They are great for adding that final touch in a landscape bed and a perfect option on slopes where a retaining wall may not be needed but erosion may be an issue.

Step treads are great for high traffic areas on any incline. They can be used in conjunction with walkways and always enhance any landscape when added. They typically come in two sizes and range from 4-8 inches in thickness. The two most common sizes for step treads are:

  • 18” x 36”

  • 18” x 48”
