Custom Patio Design & Installation
As the premier choice for patio installation in Happy Valley, we specialize in designing and building custom paver and natural stone patios that serve as the heart of your backyard. Your patio is where memories are made—from summer barbecues to quiet morning coffees. Our design process begins with understanding your vision and lifestyle.

As an Authorized Belgard Contractor, we work with the highest quality materials, ensuring your patio is not only beautiful but also incredibly durable, low-maintenance, and built to withstand the Pacific Northwest weather for decades.
Pergola Design & Installation
Are you searching for a trusted pergola builder in Happy Valley to add dimension and elegance to your yard? Our team designs and constructs beautiful timber covers and pergolas that provide the perfect balance of shade, style, and structure. A custom pergola can define an outdoor dining area, create a focal point over a spa, or support climbing plants for a lush, green canopy. Each structure is custom-designed and built by our skilled craftsmen to integrate seamlessly with your patio, deck, and home, enhancing both usability and curb appeal.
Creative Fencing & Privacy Screens
Our fencing contractor services in Happy Valley focus on creating functional art that provides both security and sophisticated style. We move beyond standard fencing to design and install custom solutions that reflect your personal taste. Whether you desire the timeless warmth of a horizontal cedar fence, the sleek look of modern metal, or a custom-designed privacy screen to create a secluded retreat, we build structures that elevate your property’s aesthetic while delivering the privacy and peace you need.
Retaining Walls & Boulder Placement
Many properties in the Happy Valley area feature beautiful but challenging slopes. We specialize in building structurally sound and visually stunning retaining walls that solve erosion issues, manage drainage, and create valuable, usable space. Our team can transform an unusable hillside into elegant, tiered gardens or a level foundation for a new patio. We also have extensive expertise in natural boulder placement, using large, distinctive stones to add rugged, organic beauty to your landscape and provide natural-looking retention.
Custom Decks & Firepits
Expand your home’s living area into the outdoors with a custom-built deck. We design and construct decks that serve as a perfect transition from your interior to your yard, using high-quality wood or low-maintenance composite materials. A well-designed deck is the ideal platform for entertaining and relaxing. To complete your outdoor oasis, gather with friends and family around a custom firepit. We design and build unique firepits and fireplaces from pavers or natural stone that integrate flawlessly with your patio and landscape, creating an inviting focal point for year-round enjoyment.
Excavation & Land Clearing
The longevity and success of any hardscape project depend on what’s underneath. Proper site preparation is a non-negotiable step, and our professional excavation services ensure your project begins on a solid, stable foundation. We handle all aspects of site prep, including grading for proper drainage, driveway preparation, brush removal, and comprehensive land clearing. With an understanding of fire prevention best practices, we can also help create a defensible space around your home, a crucial consideration for many properties.
Hardscape Maintenance & Restoration (The Hardscape Doctor™)
Your hardscape is a significant investment, and like any investment, it requires care to maintain its value and beauty. Through our specialized Hardscape Doctor™ services, we provide expert maintenance and restoration to protect your investment. Over time, pavers can shift, joints can fill with weeds, and surfaces can become stained or covered in moss. Our team offers professional joint re-sanding, advanced paver sealing to protect against the elements, and meticulous repairs to correct issues like sunken or broken pavers. We can restore the original beauty and structural integrity of your patios, walkways, and driveways, ensuring they remain safe, stunning, and enjoyable for many years to come.

What Our Clients Are Saying
"From the very first meeting with Dan, we knew we were in good hands. He listened to our ideas for a new patio and pergola and came back with a design that was more beautiful and functional than we could have imagined. The crew was professional, courteous, and their attention to detail was incredible. Our new outdoor space has completely transformed how we use our home. We couldn't be happier with the result and their commitment to getting every detail perfect."
"Our paver walkway and patio were looking tired, stained, and full of weeds. We thought we might have to replace the whole thing. We called Landworks NW for a quote, and they told us about their Hardscape Doctor™ restoration service. The team came in, deep-cleaned everything, re-sanded the joints, and applied a sealant. It looks brand new! They saved us thousands of dollars and restored our curb appeal completely. Highly recommend!"
Frequently Asked Questions About
Hardscaping in Happy Valley
Are you licensed and insured to work as a hardscape contractor in Happy Valley, OR?
Absolutely. Landworks NW is fully licensed and insured to perform all our services, including hardscape design, patio installation, retaining wall construction, and fencing, in Happy Valley and throughout Oregon. Furthermore, our status as an Authorized Belgard Contractor requires us to maintain all necessary licenses and insurance, providing an additional layer of protection and confidence for our clients.
Do I need a permit for a new patio or pergola in Happy Valley?
Permit requirements in Happy Valley can vary depending on the specific scope of your project. For instance, retaining walls over a certain height, decks attached to the home, or large pergolas may require a municipal permit. Our team is well-versed in the local building codes and regulations. We will assess your project’s needs and can guide you through the permitting process, ensuring all work is fully compliant and hassle-free for you.
What materials do you recommend for patios in the wet Pacific Northwest climate?
For the Portland area climate, we strongly recommend high-quality interlocking concrete pavers, especially those from Belgard. These pavers are engineered to be exceptionally durable and resistant to cracking from the constant freeze-thaw cycles we experience. Their interlocking design creates a flexible yet stable surface that allows for excellent drainage, preventing water pooling. They also provide a naturally non-slip surface, which is a crucial safety feature in our rainy environment.
How long does a typical patio installation take?
The timeline for a standard patio installation can range from a few days to a week or more, depending on several factors like the project’s size, the complexity of the design, accessibility of the site, and weather conditions. After our initial free consultation and once the design is finalized, we provide every client with a detailed project schedule so you know exactly what to expect from start to finish.
Do you serve areas outside of Happy Valley?
Yes, we do. While we take great pride in serving homeowners in Happy Valley, our service area covers the entire Portland Metro region, including Lake Oswego, West Linn, Beaverton, Tualatin, and Sherwood. We also have a strong presence and base of operations in Central Oregon, serving communities like Bend and Sunriver.
