Landscaping in Hammond, OR

Landscaping in Hammond, OR starts with the weather: wind off the Columbia bar, salt spray and sandy ground that can flip between dry and waterlogged. Alejos Construction & Landscape works in Hammond from our Warrenton base, only a short drive away, designing yards that stay healthy in that exposure.

Building in Hammond, OR

Hammond is a small waterfront community beside Fort Stevens State Park, right where the Columbia meets the Pacific. Yards are wide open to wind and salt spray, and the sandy ground can look dry on top while the water table is close underneath.

Because Hammond is so exposed, plant selection and placement matter more than anywhere else. A shrub that thrives in Astoria may burn on the edge of Fort Stevens.

Designing for an exposed site

We use layered plantings: tough, low evergreens on the windward side that shelter more delicate plants behind them. Beds are mulched deeply, and irrigation is planned to deliver water to roots without wasting it on sand. Where wind is severe, we may recommend a fence or low wall to protect the planting.

Services we offer here

• Landscape design and planting.
• Mulch, edging and bed renovation.
• Lawn care and seasonal cleanup.
• Pathways and small patios that tie the yard together.
• We are close to Hammond, so smaller jobs and maintenance visits are easy to schedule.

Permits and local rules

Planting and mulching rarely need permits, but tree removal, irrigation connections, grading and shoreline or critical-area rules can. Check with City of Warrenton if your project touches any of those. We do not replace local officials, and we never guess about code.

Plant and maintenance mistakes

New plantings in exposed sites need water through their first summer and protection from the worst wind. Planting too late in the fall or too early in the spring costs you roots. We time installation around the weather, mulch immediately and explain the first-year care that makes the difference between plants that establish and plants that struggle.
