Built on Doing Things Right
Sequoia Stonescapes is a hardscape company based in the Willamette Valley, owned and operated by Alex Peters.
Meet the Owner: Alex Peters
Sequoia Stonescapes started with a simple observation: most hardscape failures aren't caused by bad materials. They're caused by shortcuts in the work nobody sees: the base, the drainage, the compaction. The surface looks fine on day one. Three years later, it's sinking, cracking, or pooling water.
Alex Peters founded Sequoia Stonescapes to do the work differently. Every project gets engineered base prep sized to the actual soil conditions on that specific site. Every project gets proper drainage planning before the first paver goes down. Every project gets Alex's direct oversight from site assessment through final walkthrough.
That approach takes longer and costs more than the companies that show up, scrape off the topsoil, drop some gravel, and start laying pavers. But it's the reason our work holds up for decades instead of years. It's the reason we offer a 5-year craftsmanship warranty with confidence. And it's the reason our clients refer us to their neighbors.
Alex Peters
Owner & Lead Installer
CMHA Certified Installer · 10+ years
Alex is CMHA-certified and has spent over a decade building hardscapes across Oregon, from residential patios in Salem to commercial retaining walls in the Portland metro. He personally oversees every Sequoia Stonescapes project, which means the person who designed your project is the same person making sure it's built correctly.
Before founding Sequoia Stonescapes, Alex worked with Western Interlock for 5 years. Seeing firsthand the work that contractors were installing motivated him to be and do different. Sequoia was built on the opposite principle: do fewer projects, do them right, and let the results speak for themselves.
Alex also operates PacWest Retaining Walls, Sequoia's commercial division, which handles large-scale retaining wall and site work projects throughout the region.
How We Work
No Subcontractors
Our crew does the work. No random subcontractor showing up to do the actual installation while we move on to the next bid. The team that starts your project finishes it.
Overbuild the Base
We excavate deeper and compact more thoroughly than the minimum standards call for. In Oregon's clay soil, the minimum isn't enough. Our base prep is the difference between 5-year and 25-year results.
Honest Assessments
If your project needs a $30,000 solution, we'll tell you. If it needs a $3,000 repair, we'll tell you that too. We don't upsell work that isn't needed and we don't underbid to win the job and cut corners later.
