    We wanted low maintenance, and that is what we got, especially in such a high-traffic area. We love it; thank you, Van team!

    With so many options to choose from, it's hard to pick. But I'm happy I went with Van's Landscape. From the beginning, the communication and responsiveness were superior. The team is proficient and did a fantastic job, and I'm very satisfied with the work and what I paid for it. I will hire them again and recommend them to others.

    I am very happy we chose Van's Landscape to create our paver project. Bill and his team did an outstanding job creating our new parking spot with pavers. They were punctual, communicated clearly throughout the process, and ensured everything was done just as we needed. My husband and I are very happy with both the final result and the price. The crew worked efficiently and quickly, which was impressive. It was fun to watch them working together and how fast they were. We would definitely hire them again to work in our yard. They know what they are doing with pavers for sure. We would definitely work with them again are very happy.

    Van went above and beyond in scheduling the in-person estimate and subsequent job as soon as possible. He was communicative from the very beginning. His team showed up in a timely manner and worked furiously yet, harmoniously for hours until the job was complete. Additionally, Vans company was by far the most fair pricing of the five estimates I received. And last month,but not least they did a beautiful job!

    Had a great experience hiring Van's Landscaping to overhaul my yard (debris clean up, installing new sod and weed barriers, laying beauty bark, and installing a sprinkler and drip system). * Compared to quotes I received from other companies, they were by far the most cost effective (30% cheaper). * Quickly came out to provide a quote, and responsive over text as we discussed different options and modified the quote. * After I agreed to move forward, they completed all work over two days in the same week. They worked efficiently, the yard looks great, and I'm really pleased with the app-controlled irrigation system. I plan to contact them again for all future work.

    Van's work! (Before and After) ... excuse the pup.

    Stop looking for reviews can call Van's Landscaping. I've been working with them for a few years now and they are just the best. Just look at the insane work they did on my yard!

    The plants on my hedge had mostly wilted and I needed to replant the hedge with 50+ shrubs. Van gave me a great price and he communicated with me frequently when he was shopping the plants to try to save me money. I also wanted to rip out the existing drip line and used sprinkler heads for the new plants. Van found leakage problems in my sprinkler pumps and fixed them for me and set up the new sprinklers. Overall, I'm very pleased with the results!

    I genuinely love Van and his crew. They are indeed landscaping experts. They all are incredibly knowledgeable, and his crew always respected my property. They worked like a well-oiled, cohesive team. I loved that they are a family-owned business, too - bonus. Because I wasn't sure what I wanted or needed, Van walked through each job phase and offered design advice and suggestions. I must say, this was my first time working with a professional landscaper, and I could not have selected a better one to hold my hand through the process. Van responded immediately to my multiple questions, the mid-stream design changes, and the magnitude of text messages. The crew showed up every time on time as promised and got immediately to work. The crew cleaned up at the end of each work day. They did not disrupt my neighbors. Van kept informed about every step of the process and the cost of supplies. Because they worked so meticulously, I kept adding to my project. The results are amazing. All my neighbors love the change. Van is exceptionally personable and extremely easy to work with. This will be a long-term relationship since I found lots more projects for Vans Landscape to complete. My projects started and finished precisely as Van had promised and on budget as quoted--no hidden fees or cost overruns to deal with. No substandard materials were used. Exactly what I selected was what I received. I am grateful for the service I received from Vans Landscape. In this post-pandemic era, it is good to know there are still contractors like Van out there providing exemplary service. See photos - since I am over 70, this design will be here through my 80s & 90s, if I am blessed to still be here. If you need any yard or landscaping done, I highly recommend Vans Landscape. HE ROCKS! Trust me. If you want the best, look no further; call Vans Landscape.

    Got my sprinkler system up and running quickly. Found and replaced broken valves and removed old wiring. Good, reliable communication, too.

    Those guys worked so hard removing the sod from my back yard. They were great. You know, everything…read moreis clay around here. There were a few areas where I didn't want plants disturbed and they totally honored that. The price was very fair and I'm so glad I hired them for my job. I now have a beautiful vegetable garden where raccoons once roamed and rolled my lawn searching for grubs. And, p.s. communication was excellent.

    We hired Lee's General Landscaping to do a total yard cleanup + clear a bunch of plants and…read moreinvasive species from our perimeter, then add medium bark to suppress regrowth. Our assigned estimator Kimball came by for the initial walk through on July 3rd. We walked the property and I pointed out areas that we wanted cleared and bark added to suppress new growth. He left us with a video of him walking the property and shortly thereafter we had an estimate. My wife and I reviewed it, and wanted to see what it would cost to add landscaping fabric and rocks to some of the areas on the initial estimate. I responded to Kimball and he asked for a Google image of the home with the areas we wanted the work done marked. I then sent him the requested materials via a color coded aerial image. Kimball then asked to come out for a second look to make sure his measurements were correct. I was unable to accompany him for that walk, but he did do the checkup. We had a second open ended estimate shortly thereafter showing what the added rocks and fabric would run per square yard. We then decided on just doing bark (simplest install) - no landscaping fabric or rocks, but in all of the same areas marked on the aerial photo. To be doubly safe, I sent him a second aerial photo marking where we wanted the bark. Kimball's final estimate included a breakdown of what 4 yards, 6 yards, 8 yards or 10 yards bark would cost to procure and install. He told me that they would start at 6 yards with our property per his assessment, and if more were needed, they would request the additional amount day of the job. 7/25/26. The day of the job. Lee's arrived, I walked the grounds with the foreman and they got to work. Late in the day, I got a call from Kimball saying that the 6 cubic yards of bark he'd ordered wasn't enough to cover everything and that they needed another 2 cubic yards to the tune of several hundred dollars to complete all areas we wanted covered. I agreed to the up charge and Lee's crew completed the job. About 10 days went by, and our very nice looking yard started to sprout weeds all over the place. Naturally, I was expecting to see obvious weed growth here and there pop up, but this seemed like a lot. Regardless, I got to work pulling the weeds every 3-4 days or so, added some more bagged bark I purchased from Carpenitos here and there, and as I tackled each section of the yard on various days. Then, they exploded. By the 6th week, we were overrun and I couldn't keep up. I did some checking, and found that for successful weed suppression, you need at least 3-4 inches of bark coverage to prevent light from reaching the newly cleared topsoil. Lee's quote stated they they lay down "at least 2-3 inches" of bark - not the gold standard 3-4 inches, but fairly adequate. So, I got out there with a yardstick and started measuring. Low and behold, most of the front and back yard had as little as 1/2 an inch to 1.5 inches bark coverage. The areas I'd hit with bags as I weeded were barely pushing 2 inches, which means they too were initially VERY thin. I then photo'd the explosion of overgrowth and sent it to Lee's general email with a concerned message attached. Kimball replied to the message, but he refused to acknowledge any error had been made on his part or Lees in terms of the estimated coverage vs. completed work. Ultimately, he refused to remedy the situation without charging us thousands of dollars more. We went back and forth multiple times via email, and he would not budge - not even to cover labor only to rake back, and remove the overgrowth. He also refused to connect me to a senior manager or owner - eg: a 3rd party in the company whom could objectively review the situation, stating that he was a manager and partial owner and in charge of our estimate. We were charged over $3200.00 after tax for the job. It will likely cost us thousands of additional dollars to remedy the overgrowth resultant of Lee's error, and for which they refuse to acknowledge or accept responsibility. I'm personally kinda shocked considering their reputation and long standing place in the community. We used their services for lawn mowing and occasional yard work in Seattle many years ago without issue. My how times have changed.
