about the owner

The owner of Outdoor Oasis standing on a sandy beach near the ocean on a sunny day, with a blue sky overhead and people in the distance, some walking and some sitting, enjoying the beach scene.

Outdoor Oasis was founded by Soren Jensen, a Ballard-based craftsman whose passion for outdoor building began with custom deck construction and grew into a full-service landscape design and build company. What started as a deep appreciation for fine woodworking and quality outdoor structures quickly expanded into a broader vision: creating complete outdoor environments that give Seattle homeowners a private sanctuary to escape to, entertain in, and enjoy year-round.

Soren's background in deck building gave him an exceptional foundation in structure, materials, and craftsmanship — skills he has applied to every project Outdoor Oasis has taken on since. Today, that same hands-on attention to detail and commitment to quality runs through every deck, fence, hardscape, and landscape we design and build.

Our Approach:

What sets Outdoor Oasis apart is our unique artistic approach to outdoor design and construction. We don't work from templates or off-the-shelf solutions. Every project begins with a genuine creative process — one that takes into account your home's architecture, your property's natural features, your lifestyle, and your personal aesthetic.

We take pride in selecting unique, high-quality materials and combining them with precision craftsmanship to create outdoor spaces that feel genuinely custom. Whether we're building a low-maintenance composite deck, a handcrafted cedar privacy fence, a striking hardscape, or a complete landscape design from the ground up, our goal is always the same: to deliver a finished space that exceeds your expectations and brings lasting enjoyment to your daily life.

Fully Licensed, Insured & Bonded — You can trust that your project is in professional, accountable hands from start to finish. (License #: OUTDOOL768KG)
