Paver patios and hardscaping in West Richland
Hardscaping for West Richland's larger lots and fast-growing neighborhoods west of the Yakima River.
West Richland is a Benton County city across the Yakima River from Richland. It had 16,295 residents at the 2020 census, up 38 percent from 2010, making it one of the fastest-growing parts of the Tri-Cities. Many properties have bigger lots than the older parts of the region, and some sit on hillsides with long views.
What do West Richland homeowners ask for?
- Large backyard patios with fire pits and seating areas
- Seat walls and low retaining walls on sloped lots
- RV and trailer pads beside the driveway
- Paths connecting the patio, garden and outbuildings
Big lots, long runs
Bigger yards make it tempting to pave a lot of ground, so it helps to plan in phases. Many owners start with the patio near the house, then add a fire area, paths or a pad later. A contractor can set elevations and drainage for the whole plan up front so later phases tie in cleanly.
Hillside lots
On hill lots, water from upslope yards and sprinklers runs toward the house. A patio needs to be pitched away from the foundation, and any wall that levels the yard needs gravel backfill and a drain. Ask whether the city requires a permit for larger walls or structures.
