The Great Wide Open has an excellent reputation building in San Juan County for the past six years, almost exclusively on Henry Island. My work there has been for a small community of friends and neighbors I’ve known most of my life, where honesty and professionalism is vital to my business. Recently moving to San Juan Island I'm now open to work other than on Henry. I specialize in unique builds including saunas, decks, outdoor furniture, and gardens constructed with locally reclaimed lumber, but am no stranger to new construction. I also remodel decks, roofs, and outbuildings, and enjoy building walking paths through beautiful forests. Interested to hear what you need built!

"I live in, and was primary owner / builder on a remodel addition to an old 1970’s A-frame on Henry Island near Roche Harbor. Brian was on time, focused eager to work and stay late if needed. He brought a huge amount to the table on this very tricky custom build. He did an awsome job in all respects. And was a pleasure to work with. He listened to what my vision was, offered suggestions for design, and was critical in executing the project. I trust Brian to get the job done right no matter how “custom” or complicated a design or location."

Mulch and Topsoil questions, answered by experts

The ideal amount of mulch is the square footage of your desired depth in inches divided by 324. Aim to keep your old and/or new mulch at a depth of no more than three or four inches.

You should add 1 to 4 inches of mulch, depending on your garden type and needs. Keep in mind that no amount of mulch can completely prevent weeds, but a heavier coverage (closer to 4 inches) can suppress weeds enough that you are only seeing them sprout every few weeks. Finer mulch prevents weeds more effectively than large mulch, so if you’re using mulched leaves or shredded bark, 1 to 2 inches will likely suffice, while 3 to 4 inches is best for larger mulch, like bark chips or straw.

Determine whether you have any other heavy, bulky, or oddly-shaped items you’d like to relocate, such as a washing machine or other appliance. Since many professional moving companies may charge minimum fees for their services, you could end up paying the same cost to move a refrigerator as you would to move the fridge and a second or third item.

Ensure clear delivery pathways, remove obstacles, and prepare to cover surfaces to protect landscaping areas. Coordinating with the provider for an estimated arrival prepares punctuality.

The number of bags of topsoil you need depends on the depth you’re filling. The average topsoil is sold in a roughly forty-pound bag, covering 12 square feet at a one-inch depth. Since topsoil is by nature the uppermost layer of soil, you can bet on only needing to fill about 4 to 8 inches of soil depth with it.
