We pride ourselves in doing a good job for you at a fair price. As a landscape design/build contractor and nursery for almost 40 years, we have employees with unprecedented longevity in a trade known for employee turnover. Many of our employees, including landscape labor crew have been with us for over five years (and some for a decade or more), an unusual statistic in the landscape industry. Our on staff landscape architect is state licensed and a member of the ASLA (American Society of Landscape Architects). We are also a 5-star King County Envirostar Company and members of a number of professional nursery, landscape design and building associations, such as WALP, WSNLA, ASLA and APLD. (See our reference and “questions to ask your landscape designer” sections). As a 'Best of Houzz' and Angie'sList Super-service award winning company for many years, you can also read positive reviews of our work on the web from services such as Bing, Google, Angie's List, Yelp, Houzz and other online review sites.

We build almost everything outside and we offer creative and flexible, budget-based solutions specifically tailored to fit your site. We base our horticultural recommendations on our vast experience working on properties from Everett to Maple Valley as well as research completed by the Washington State Cooperative Extension Service. Our nursery staff is a team of professional horticulturalists with a passion for plants. Specializing in large trees, we are also stocking tried & true garden favorites and many unique plant varieties well suited to our region. Think of our Garden Center as your local horticultural resource center.

Yes, we do things differently. A complimentary consultation with a landscape architect? Yes, we offer that - and as part of our unique, flexible approach to landscaping, we also offer optional "do-it-yourself" pricing as well as "direct-to-owner" subcontract bids. Our designers also utilize laptop computer estimating that enable them to offer prompt estimates and instant answers to your pricing and "what if" questions. Our designers carry a wide variety of product catalogs and landscape information for you to review as well. Classic’s Garden Center allows you the ability to "see the plants before you start". Our installations include a range of design innovations, from mixed seasonal perennial plantings to unique "dry stream" arrangements that serve as an aesthetic alternative to common gravel landscape drains. The award-winning ponds and waterfalls that we build utilize a unique skimmer and bio-falls components that function as a self-regulating water ecosystem. In addition to our guaranteed work, you will receive a year-long discount at our Garden Center and you can have us followup with comprehensive scheduled landscape care and sign up to receive our monthly garden tips via email to keep you and your yard on the right track.
