I had my front yard relandscaped. It included removal of several large trees, existing sod and creating a dry creek bed. New plants and trees, boulders, flagstones and lighting were also added. The process was easy and enjoyable. I worked with Brandon Sackett who came up with a beautiful design. He was able to blend parts of the existing yard into the new design. We discussed plants in detail and adjusted them based on plants I like, ease of maintenance and the presence of deer. When the project officially began, I met the project manager, Nathan Bartlett and he and Brandon walked me through how each day would proceed. We had great communication via text and email and I knew exactly what was happening each day. The project took 7 days from start to finish and the transformation was amazing. I highly recommend this company. They were easy to work with, very professional and I had complete confidence that I would love the finished project.

I recently worked with Landscape East & West to rebuild and extend a large retaining wall overlooking a steep ravine on the edge of my property in Lake Oswego. At every step of the process, I was delighted to work with these folks. After the consultation and planning with Brandon, Irvin and Cesar worked 4 full days to complete the work. Along the way, I had multiple visits and check ins from the site supervisor, Nathan. All of these guys were a pleasure to work with and I am relieved to have a high quality retaining wall in place. I'd happily work with this company again and recommend it without reservations.

We had an excellent experience working with Landscape East & West, and especially with our landscape designer, Brandon. We interviewed several landscaping companies, and Brandon clearly stood out for his knowledge in Japanese garden design, including firsthand experience visiting Japan. He immediately understood what we were aiming for—not a strictly traditional Japanese garden, but a Japanese-inspired landscape that would complement our new modern home build.
Brandon was personable, professional, and always punctual. He listened carefully and thoughtfully incorporated many of our ideas into the final design. His cost estimates and project timeline were accurate. It was a refreshing and welcome surprise to see this project stay on track and unfold as planned, after having experienced numerous budget overruns and delays with our other home construction projects.
Brandon was easy to communicate with and very open to feedback, never taking offense when we suggested design changes. We were able to reuse many of the existing trees and plantings from our original basic landscaping. He and his crew were meticulous in their work, and the final result exceeded our expectations.
We also appreciated the flexibility to break the project into phases, which helped us manage our budget and prioritize different areas of our landscaping. Brandon was responsive via email and visited the site multiple times to address design questions and review the finished work.
We couldn’t be happier with the outcome and can't wait to see the garden grow in. We are very much looking forward to working with Brandon again on phase two of our backyard project. Highly recommend.

Landscape East and West created a complete outdoor oasis for our 1912 Portland home in the Mt Tabor neighborhood. Brandon Sackett, the landscape architect did the design, including gates, fencing, pergola, hot tub, retaining wall, stairs, steel planters, lighting, outdoor kitchen, and so much more.
Ours was a complex project with many moving parts and required many specialty laborers and craftsmen.
Nathan Bartlett, our project manager was on site daily coordinating the details and supervising the crews.
The results are magnificent and we cherish the transformation that turned our backyard into paradise.
Best of all with their maintenance services we don’t have to struggle to keep it all looking great.
We have high praise for Landscape East and West and enthusiastically recommend them to anyone who is looking for an amazing outdoor space.
This is our second project with Landscape East & West, and we are so incredibly happy with the results.
At our initial planning meeting with Bjorn, we felt that he fully heard our needs, gave us several alternatives to fit our budget, and was communicative throughout the process through several emails and in-person check-ins. He was thoughtful and balanced our needs with what worked best for the environment and topography of our sloped backyard. At our final walkthrough, he spent extra time reprogramming our irrigation system, and gave us useful maintenance tips.
Mac and the site crew did a fantastic job bringing our project to life. The quality of work was top-notch, and the job site clean and tidy throughout the process. Mac and team were so nice to work with, and even met with us to update us on the work.
Another A+ experience at our Happy Valley backyard oasis. Just an amazing experience from start to finish - I highly recommend Landscape East & West.
