What we build
Patios, Retaining Walls, Curbing & Planting
Most projects combine several of these. We design them around your yard, your budget and how you use the space.
- Paver patios and walkways. Seating areas and paths cut and laid to fit the space, like the corner patio with a bench on our South Hill renovation.
- Steps. Steps set into the grade where the yard changes level, like the stairs to a mulch play area on a new-home install.
- Retaining walls. Walls that hold back a slope and create level ground for beds, lawn or a patio.
- Concrete curbing. Curbing poured in place on a gravel base, for a clean, durable border between lawn and beds.
- Rock and mulch beds. Black basalt, river rock or mulch over the planting beds, which helps hold moisture in and weeds down.
- Planting. Trees, shrubs and perennials chosen for the spot and the Inland Northwest climate, from new front beds to boxwoods lining a front walk.
- Lawn areas. Lawn shaped into the design and edged with curbing, with the ground prepped for seed.
- Smart irrigation and drip. A Wi-Fi controller, sprinkler zones for the lawn and drip lines for beds and trees, planned with the landscape instead of added after it.
How it works
Our Landscape Design & Build Process
Four steps from the first site visit to the final walkthrough. You see the plan and the estimate before any work starts.
-
Free consult and site visit
We meet on site, take measurements and talk through your goals and budget. Expect a realistic conversation about timeline and cost.
-
Design and estimate
You get a concept plan, material options and a clear estimate. The proposal can include a 3D rendering, so you see the yard before work starts. We adjust the plan until it fits your goals.
-
Build
We order materials, schedule the crew and handle permits when a project needs them. The site stays tidy, and you get regular updates while the work is underway.
-
Walkthrough and care
We walk the finished project with you, make sure you're happy and go over how to care for it. Want ongoing maintenance? We'll set that up.

Before and after
A Landscape Renovation on Spokane's South Hill
Bare dirt to a low-maintenance front yard
This South Hill property started as bare dirt. The client saw a 3D rendering with the proposal, then let our team run with the design: concrete curbing on a gravel base, rock beds, two large Montana rose crystal rocks as focal points, boxwoods along the front walk and new lawn, all watered by a Wi-Fi smart irrigation system with drip lines for the beds and trees.

What Customers Say About Our Landscaping
Verbatim from our Google reviews. Read them all on Google.
“They designed and planted new beds in the front of my house. I've received a ton of compliments from my neighbors. … I highly recommend Automated for any of your landscaping needs.”
“We hired Automated Lawn & Pest to do some landscaping in our backyard using rainbow river rock and using our old brick to make a path from our storage shed. … We were kept updated regularly on when they would come and when they would be back. We really appreciated the communication because we have not experienced that with other project contractors we’ve had in the past.”
“After contacting several landscaping companies I knew Automated Lawn & Pest were the right ones for our project. From the first day of discussions to the last days of wrapping up our project Automated were on time, professional, and energetic to make our project a reality. … Fast and efficient, everyday we saw the project spring to life.”

Shrub Bed Weed Control & Yard Cleanups
A finished landscape still needs looking after. These two services keep weeds out of the beds and get the yard ready for each season.
Questions
Landscaping Questions
How much does landscaping cost in Spokane?
It depends on the size of the project, the site and the materials. Site prep, soil and drainage work, retaining walls, material choice (pavers or natural stone), irrigation and labor all move the number. Automated Lawn & Pest Control prices every project from a free on-site consult, so you get a real estimate for your yard instead of a guess. Book a free consult.
Do you design the landscape or just install it?
Both. You get a concept plan, material options and an estimate, and the proposal can include a 3D rendering like the one for our South Hill renovation. You can be as involved as you like: on one new-home install, the family chose the plants and trees themselves.
Do you build retaining walls in Spokane?
Yes. Automated Lawn & Pest Control builds retaining walls as part of landscape projects in the Spokane area, to hold back a slope or create level ground for beds, lawn or a patio. Our guide to hiring a landscaper for a retaining wall walks through what the process involves.
Can you put in sprinklers with a new landscape?
Yes, and it's easiest to plan both together. We can add lawn zones, drip lines for beds and trees and a Wi-Fi controller as part of the project; see sprinkler installation. One of our new-home landscape installs started as a sprinkler install and grew into a full landscape.
Do you landscape rental properties?
Yes. For one rental, a budget refresh with low-maintenance plants, black basalt rock beds and a simple brick border, kept up with weekly mowing, helped the unit fill faster than expected. See the rental curb appeal makeover and our commercial and rental property services.
