Alderwood Landscape Architecture and Construction

We had a wonderful experience with the team at Alderwood. They finished our backyard landscaping a little ahead of schedule. The crew were tidy, prompt, and great at communicating throughout the project. We are very happy with the end result and would highly recommend working with Alderwood for landscaping.

It is an awesome company with great values and even better service. If you are looking for a landscape designer in Bellevue then this is the company for you. Give them a call and they'll treat you like royalty.

Alderwood landscaping completely redesigned our front-scape and transformed the street appeal of our home. They performed on time and on budget. Clear communication throughout the entire process. Every member of their team was delightful to work with. Most notably, Tim, Johnny and Colin were professional and managed the project as if it was their own home. Highly recommend working with this company on your next project.

We had a major backyard project with landscaping, a water feature, a bunch of land movement/shaping, a lot of pavers and steps, a pool, an outdoor kitchen space, plantings, and more! Alderwood was awesome all the way through from the beginning of design to execution and completing the project. They helped with the myriad of choices, orchestrating the project with so many others, and communicating with us about everything. Tim, Johnny, Alex, and everyone at Alderwood was awesome throughout; my family was sad to see Alex and crew finish as they got so comfortable seeing them every day working on the project. ; ) The Alderwood team was fantastic to work with and did such an excellent job on this project - we would not be surprised if we do another project with them. I highly recommend them for anyone looking to do a backyard resort project like we did. Thank you, Alderwood!

We had Alderwood Landscaping redesign and build our backyard oasis. From the first meeting to project completion, they are one of the most professional companies we have ever worked with! Their construction crew was on-time every day, worked hard and throughout the process made sure we were happy with the progress. Should you ever need landscape architecture and construction, we highly recommend Alderwood Landscaping, Inc.

We are just wrapping up our landscaping project with Alderwood and found them to be excellent. We have a tricky property on a hill with significant elevation change that several other companies would not even attempt. Alderwood was fantastic about being responsive and working out feasibility right away. We were having some construction changes made to our property at the same time with another company which made scheduling and logistics tricky, but Alderwood went above and beyond to coordinate the schedules and yield a fantastic result. Their customer service and professionalism is exceptional and something that’s hard to find these days. The onsite crew worked very hard every day, even through difficult weather, and were always friendly and helpful. We also truly appreciated Alderwood’s commitment to timelines and loved that once they start your project, they are there everyday until completion. We highly recommend.

Alderwood has just done an excellent job delivering our landscaping project (our project was completed about three weeks ago). Looking back at the whole project process after its completion, I have to say that Alderwood staff show an exceptional level of professionalism and quality standard. Beginning with the design, Alderwood architect produced the lanscape architeecture for us that turuned out to exceed our expectations. They helped to walk us thru a permit process smoothly that could otherwise have been complicated. The project implementation team worked on every piece of details amazingly, like measuring the position of each boulder, cutting and polishing bricks to make the curly walkway, etc. The post-project service has just started, but has been going very well so far. Working with Alderwood on our landscape has been an excellent and fortunate experience. We would strongly recommend Alderwood for a landscape project. Thank you Alderwood !!

We used Alderwood for a total yard overhaul - back and front tear out and re-landscape along with a good amount of hardscaping (walkways, patio, and fire pit area). Also installed irrigation. Had a great experience at every stage of the project, from initial consultation and design with their landscape architect, to coordinating with their project manager, to the team who came out for final work completion. Initial project estimate was in line with final budget, communication was solid throughout, everyone we had a chance to work with was friendly and professional. Their recommended contacts for tree removal and masonry work were awesome as well. Total time for the project was around 8 weeks, including some very cold and snowy January mornings where the crew showed up like clockwork and kept working on the project. Wouldn't hesitate to recommend.

We enjoyed working with Alderwood Landscape Architecture and Construction from the beginning with the design process through construction to completion. Alex and his crew were timely, dependable, hard working, and were respectful of our yard/house and the neighbors throughout construction. They were easy to get a hold of and communicate with and responded quickly to any questions we had. They took great care to ensure a quality project at completion. We appreciate knowing if any issues arise, they will be there to help us out. We are excited to enjoy our new yard this summer! Thank you!

We had a great experience with Alderwood getting our backyard done. We have a newer house with an average sized backyard with not-so-great soil drainage. Tim created a great design for the space and patiently walked us through his choices and his reasons, accepted our input and feedback until we had a design that we liked. Patrick and his crew (Michael, Colin and Anthony) took over from there and put in a huge amount of work to make the plan a reality. They took care of handling the drainage issues, implementing the design and constantly keeping us up to date on what was happening, any external choices we needed to make, etc. We got a sense that they really cared about doing a great job with a high degree of fit and finish and were not trying to rush through the project. They were also very respectful of our neighbors (they needed to use heavy machinery, so noise and access to the backyard were an issue) and keeping the work area as clean as possible. We got quotes from other landscapers and finally decided to go with Alderwood. They were not the cheapest, but they did an awesome job and we felt we got what we paid for. Our backyard looks fantastic!

Pat and his crew did a superb job with our backyard remodel. They were prompt, courteous, communicated with us throughout the process, and went above and beyond just about daily throughout the project. Jeff built us an outdoor structure that’s a beautiful focal point. Alderwood also relies on the “best” when it comes to the other contractors that helped get the job done. In the end, our backyard exceeded even our highest expectations and we look forward to using it for years to come!

Patrick and team were great to work with. The team was professional, hardworking and showed great respect for the job, our home, yard and busy schedule. I do not hesitate to recommend them and Alderwood.

Alderwood Landscaping were fantastic to work with, notably Tim, Alex and Johnny. But really all of the staff we ever interacted with were great. They were very organized and good at communicating what was happening when. In the planning stage, they made sure to take into account what we wanted but also came up with a great plan for using our space in the best way! The work was done within a couple of weeks and it looks fantastic! We are so pleased with the final result and can’t wait to use the space next year!

Tim, Johnny, Patrick and his crew has done an amazing job transforming our backyard into a beautiful and functional space. From the first design meeting to completion, everything was done in stunning details and with our needs in mind. The construction lasted about 4 weeks, and seeing the crew worked day in and day out meticulously on the project affirmed my decision to go with Alderwood. Yes, the project is a bit pricey, but they are upfront about the cost, and the quality of work is worth every penny. Highly recommended!!

The Alderwood team has been an absolute dream to work with! From start to finish, they have listened to our wants/needs and then made it all a little more magical! Patrick and his crew are the best! Knowledgeable and skilled, as well as great at communicating about what is going on and exactly what to expect throughout each step of the process. Our backyard is stunning, and we have actually enjoyed the project! Thank you so much for giving us a wonderful, relaxing backyard retreat!

100% POSITIVE 1- One great company. 0- Zero issues on project. 0- Zero negative on anything. %- 100% Satisfied. P- Professional, Pat’s Team of Anthony, Collin, Max and Mike were the “A” Team! O- Overall, great experience. S- Sensitive to our lives as well as our dogs. I- Impeccable standards. T- Timely, even when we added more, finished on time. I- Impressive, Tim’s design and Pat’s crew work ethic to create it. V- Value, in enjoyment, let alone added property value. E- Everything went great! Jonathan did a fabulous job at coordinating the project. Our project was a new home on over an acre. Our project involved tree trimmers, fencing, concrete work, electricians and ALDERWOOD. All of which was needed for our backyard retreat. We can enjoy our water feature and our new paved patio, while enjoying our low maintenance area of lawn and gardens.

We just finished up our project with Alderwood and we still can't believe this is our yard because it's better than anything we could have ever dreamed. We first met with Tim the landscape architect because my husband and I were clueless on what to do with our backyard that was overgrown in places and not functional. Tim saw the amazing potential in our yard and came up with a plan to redo the pool area, add an outdoor structure, fire table and entertaining area and new fence for our pups and kids. Seeing it on paper and then seeing it come to life over the last 4 months has been incredible. Tim personally picked every plant for our yard because we know nothing about plants and trees and it feels like a peaceful retreat now. We also wanted to thank Nate the foreman of the crew who worked daily in all weather conditions and is truly one of a kind-THANK YOU Nate! We also wanted to thank Johnny the project manager who helped coordinate all the amazing talent who worked on our home-Kurt who built our fire table and also saved our sad chimney, Cody the electrician, Jeff who built our structure from scratch and hauled it by himself that we were amazed daily, Tom the wonderful plumber, Bryan who built our fence, Dennis the painter, Matt the concrete artist, Justin the warranty manager who helped replace a few plants that hadn't been doing well. Our family thanks each and every one of you for your hard work and we are so appreciative of everything you put into our home to make it a dream where our kids can play and we can spend time together as a family. We are eternally grateful and feel so fortunate to have each one of you help make our dream backyard happen. THANK YOU! Chad & Alison

Just wanted to take a moment to show gratitude and appreciation to every member of Alderwood landscaping team for showing relentless effort in our backyard project. Thank you so much for the beautiful design and all the hard work in implementing it, it looks fantastic. We loved the whole crew, starting from Tim for designing the space and Patrick (site manager) and his team for attention to detail into installing the pavers, lights, sprinklers, waterfall, we couldn’t be happier with the result. Please extend our gratitude to the entire crew for their excellent work. Our outdoor space is transformed into a beautiful oasis. We believe that the well-executed backyard landscaping can upgrade the home’s entire aesthetic, and the right plants, flowers, and shrubbery can greatly enhance the beauty and appeal. We were so happy to see that even after making long international trips the work didn’t take any break and it kept progressing without any hiccups. Everybody working in the team (Patrick, Michael, Mike, Colin) are all enthusiastic, energetic with positive attitude and we thank every one of you for being the best at what you do . Thank you again for everything! You guys really ROCK … all the best for your future projects.

Alderwood was outstanding from start to finish! If you are looking for a higher level of customer service that takes care of every detail then go with Alderwood. We looked at 4 companies for our backyard remodel and went with Alderwood because of their great reputation and that they handle every detail including the subcontractors such as gas, electrical and fencing. Alderwood made everything so easy for us. We are 1000% happy with the backyard remodel. They took the design to a higher level and gave us our dream backyard. The team of Jordan, Harry, Landon and Riley worked very hard everyone day in the harsh weather and really were the nicest people. Johnny and Tim helped us plan and updated us every step the way. Alderwood really is the best!

We have used Alderwood twice and would highly recommend them. They are great to work with, come up with amazing outdoor designs and work tirelessly to get the job done right. We always know we will have amazing results when we hire Alderwood. Highly recommended.

Eric designed a stunning backyard for us, then Johnny, Devin and their team at Alderwood Landscaping brought it to life! Their level of service is amazing and making sure that every aspect of our backyard transformation met and exceeded our expectations. I would highly recommend Alderwood Landscaping you will not be disappointed. The Brooks family

Pat and his crew spent the first 10 days on demo of all our concrete walkways, and that was a brutal job. Took care to save existing plants we wanted to keep and replanted them in new settings at the end. Extremely hardworking crew, beautifully installed patio pavers, irrigation system and new landscape plantings. Built an amazing custom water feature with multiple pumps, and capped it off with LED lighting of the entire project. Thanks guys!

Alderwood exceeded our expectations. Tim understood our vision and created a modern, elegant, and functional design. Johnny's advice on materials to use for the patio, walls and lighting was spot on. I had originally picked a product that I thought would work, however, after our first meeting I realized I made the wrong choice. I was thrilled he provided his opinion. We were pleasantly surprised that our job started earlier than the original estimated date and that it was finished in a shorter timeframe than expected. Devin, Jose, Jose and Santos were fantastic. The crew was here on time and ready to go every day and they worked very consistently all day. They kept me informed on any changes that arose and gave me daily updates on progress and next steps. Alderwood was very professional and they delivered on all of our expectations. I have recommended them to many of my neighbors and friends with no hesitation and am currently working with them on a project for my front yard. If you decided to use Alderwood you will not be disappointed. S. Garbooshian

Our back yard (and front yard) water features were designed and constructed by Alderwood in 2016. We absolutely love these additions to our property. Any time there has been a need for their service asistance, Alderwood has done a great job of attending to the issue. A couple of weeks ago, one of the water feature pumps broke down and needed replacement. Justin Wean who is Alderwood's warranty and service supervisor, showed up pretty quickly with a replacement pump in his truck! He replaced the pump and made all the necessary adjustments to get the water feature running again. I appreciated Alderwood's and especially Justin's commitment to servicing their already constructed water features.

When contemplating our backyard transformation, we spoke with many design-build companies. Alderwood wasn’t the cheapest…in fact they were at the top of the pricing estimates. That said, we felt like their process, attention to detail and level of communication was worth it for a project of this scope. wow, am I glad we made that decision. I have been in customer service/sales for 20+ years and it takes a lot to impress me. From the infancy, through completion the entire Alderwood team knocked it out of the park! Tim crafted an incredible design, considering all concerns (above standard drainage, sightlines for water feature/covered structure, partially sunken hot tub, etc.). Johnny answered all project questions and coordinated scheduling for all contractors and material deliveries. Both site managers, Jordan and Jose’s attention to detail and level of communication throughout the project was incredible. They took time at the end of each day to explain what they had completed that day and confirm specific design details for the next phases of the project. At project completion, Justin has taken over to ensure everything is functioning properly and answer all remaining questions. Additionally, the two subcontractors recommended by Alderwood, Jeff (carpenter building the covered structure) and Kurt (Mason building the kitchen and fire table) have been excellent! Their level of detail is consistent with the standard set by the Alderwood Team. Needless to say, I can’t Recommend Alderwood Landscaping enough! They truly turned our vision into a reality of a backyard, resort style oasis that we will enjoy year-round.

I am pretty stingy when it comes to writing reviews because everyone wants a 5-Star review and I really believe the fifth star demands exceptional service. I must say that a feel really good about giving Alderwood the full 5th Stars. Tim drew up a nice plan recognizing and addressing significant issues before the arose and became change orders. The team worked through unprecedented challenges like the pandemic, major supply chain challenges and the City of Seattle Dept of Construction and Inspection. Devin and the work crew showed up last fall on the day it started to rain and made steady progress despite the uncooperative weather. Johnny and Devin did a great job coordinating with subcontractors to get the deck and outdoor kitchen built and gas appliances and fireplace installed. They even got multiple bids from plumbers and surveyors that contracted directly with me to help me get the best deal. But the 5th star is earned when things don’t go as planned. We had a difficult neighbor who went out of his way to make an honest misunderstanding as inconvenient and expensive to rectify as possible. Alderwood stepped right up and helped us do everything possible to rectify the situation in a timely and efficient manner. We had a drainage issue in a corner of the yard and Devin responded immediately to resolve the situation while minimizing the disruption and damage to the landscape. Recently they came by and notice a couple of the plants were not doing well and took steps to rectify that. Every member of the team has been friendly, professional, responsive at every step in the process. I have considered it a privilege work with them. I will happily recommend Alderwood to my friends and colleagues and will go out of my way to work with them again should the opportunity arise.

This is our second project with Alderwood. Tim designed an awesome resort style backyard with a firepit, water feature, trampoline area, and an outdoor kitchen. Johnny kept the project moving despite the many challenges. For example, he reached out to a neighboring HOA even though he did not know anything about the board to resolve a fence issue. Patrick, Drew and the crew were amazing! They were not able to use standard equipment to move boulders so they made it work with smaller equipment. They demonstrated incredible skill and attention to detail by maneuvering boulders in a narrow space between our house and fence line. The backyard turned out incredible. Definitely looking forward to the summer!

I am incredibly pleased with the quality, the design and the final reveal provided to me. Alderwood is fantastic to work with. Always prompt and attentive to the customer's needs. Brian's attention to detail, the landscape vision and listening to the customer's desire for the dream outdoor living space is A+! The Alderwood group of builders: Devin, Jose and the rest of the team, their hard work is very much appreciated!! My beautiful backyard is stunning! The plants, trees, the colors, lighting, the pond, porcelain pavers which includes a gas firepit. Beautiful! The transformation is more than I could even imagine. Thank you Alderwood!!

This was our second project with Alderwood. The results of both projects were outstanding. From design to completion, the team was innovative, professional, timely, and detail oriented. They provided excellent communication throughout the process. Crew on site arrived early and stayed late as needed, always hustling, while completing quality work. They were considerate of neighbors, went out of their way to ensure everything was cleaned, as they wrapped up the project. We highly recommend Alderwood, they transformed our property into a stunning landscape that is also functional, energy efficient.

We had an amazing experience with Alderwood. Tim did an amazing job planning our project, hearing the things we wanted and creating an amazing yard and plant design. The crew led by Patrick were top notch! They were professional, friendly, and had amazing attention to detail. They helped us overcome challenges and made the process easy and seamless. The job they did was amazing and better than I ever hoped for. There is nothing that I would have changed and I’m sad I won’t see the guys each day! Such a fantastic company and they did an amazing job. I would recommend Tim and Patrick for your home project.

Alderwood Landscaping is amazing! We gutted our backyard and started entirely over. Craig, Alex, Nate and Josh were the best crew we could have asked for hands down. They are all professional, talented, kind, friendly, reliable and helpful. My young kids adored seeing them at our house every day for two months, they were sad to see them complete the project and leave. Our yard is more beautiful than expected. Craig's crew is the BEST!!!!

We initially contacted Alderwood after our neighbors started on a very large project that included structural elements to hold back a hill and provide more space. They said they had a good experience with their architect Bryan so we decided to reach out. Upon meeting Bryan and discussing the project we really felt on the same page and he took in all our requirements while also coming up with great options we hadn't considered. Our project was tricky because we're in an erosion hazard zone, have a small lot, and are on a steep hill. We wanted more usable space we could enjoy and a safer environment for our kids. The designs and surveying were done efficiently and Bryan took any feedback we gave and ran with it. On top of that he also drew up an additional layout he thought we might like and we actually went with that. Really above and beyond and we were super happy. Come build time our PM, Johnny, got all of our materials lined up quickly and took time to come by and show us everything in person. Hugely helpful even in this difficult situation given covid and the supply chain challenges. Because of this we didn't have to delay the project for lack of materials. He was also very communicative when it came to subs or any schedule adjustments. He even managed comms with our custom fire table builder to ensure things lined up correctly and were built to spec. I never felt in the dark which is critical on projects like this. Our on site manager, Devin, and his crew were awesome. They built something beyond our expectations and were awesome to have on site. Our kids loved watching the process and asking questions. If anything needed to be adjusted or changed, Devin was on it with a smile on his face even if it was going to be tricky. I never felt like I was ruining his day if something needed to be done. In construction there are always unknowns and he communicated those to us and the rest of the team so we could all work together to come to a solution. Our site was very tight and challenging and they did an amazing job handling that. Devin was also great in managing our neighbors feedback. Construction can be disruptive and he ensured it was to the minimal amount possible given we share a driveway. He also adjusted the start time in the morning which helped us and our neighbors. The only real issues we had with our project were with city permits which aren't something Alderwood can control. The rest was honestly a delight and I will for sure be hiring Alderwood for future projects either on this property or a future property. Everyone is truly impressed with what was able to be done including us.

We are SO pleased with our experience with Alderwood. EVERY step of our patio paver project was done with the highest quality and integrity —from design to finish detail. Not one hiccup or weirdness. The quality of the work is incredible, but the people make the experience JOYFUL & STRESS FREE! This review must sound so cheesy, but we genuinely loved having Pat and the crew at our house. The crew was so professional, efficient, skilled, and respectful. Pat and his crew showed up at same time every day, kept things tidy, had smiles and laughs to share. They even worked in snow. The final product is identical to original design (done by Bryan — we love him too) and Jonathan (PM) ensured we were aware of every step, no surprises or delays. Such a joy! We will miss them and think of them often while enjoying our lovely space. Thankfully, we have one other project in progress. When my husband first found Alderwood online, he said, “they have the highest reviews.” I kind of rolled my eyes, thinking they probably paid for the exposure. Not true. Alderwood is exceptional and I feel so lucky to be able to have them do our work. Also, their sub contractors for electrical, general carpentry, and masonry prioritize Alderwood projects above their own backlog — what a blessing to get top of the line of priority in a crazy time of waitlists and labor shortages. Last thing — the attention to detail on drainage is amazing. Trust the unseen work will pay off in dividends for long-term usability. So thankful for Alderwood!

We had a big dream, and Alderwood helped us turn it into reality. We wanted to turn our drab, builder-grade patio, dying lawn, and outdated/overgrown planters into a backyard worthy of the home we fell in love with. Also, we wanted to improve the access point from our home, in order to enjoy it more thoroughly. Bryan took our ideas and ran with them. We worked together to hone in on our needs and embellish or cut back where needed. The whole project required other contractors (some of which weren't our favorite to work with), but Alderwood coordinated the whole thing, and we appreciated that. It was an ordeal, as many home improvements tend to be, but we were so pleased to have a professional, experienced team in our corner to make sure the job was done right. We're proud of the results, and our neighbors told us they were envious of the new yard. We have never spent so much time out in the backyard as we did this year, and that's thanks to Alderwood.

BEST Landscape Construction company hands down! From our initial meeting with Tim Glass our dreams hit the paper, then Johnny, Patrick and Crew made it all happen. Exactly like it was on the plan! We can tell that the choice of sub contractors to work on our Structure, Electrical and Masonry for the Fire Pit, was spot on. They know who’s the best. The results of our project has made us the talk of the neighborhood and we could NOT be more happy with the entire experience! If you’re going to do an outdoor remodel, seriously look no further! Alderwood is your company.

We are in love with our new landscaping! Every person on the team at Alderwood was outstanding and we couldn't be more appreciative. We will be enjoying our new yard for years to come!!!

Patrick and his crew did an amazing job in transforming our backyard to a true resort style living space. Our project took around two months to complete. During this time he would make it a point to meet with us daily to ensure that we were satisfied with the progress that was being made. Patrick is a true perfectionist and has great attention to detail. He did not rush through the project ,but instead ensured that every area in our backyard looked perfect and was as per the design plan. Also, if there were some additional tweaks that we wanted to do, he was very accommodating for that as well. It is clearly evident from the work completed that Patrick is highly qualified and experienced for this job. We highly recommend Alderwood Landscape Architecture and Construction for any of your backyard needs . We are really looking forward to enjoying our backyard for many years to come. Thank you !

Our entire experience with Alderwood Landscaping has far surpassed anything we expected. We worked with Landscape Architect, Tim Glass, who dreamed up an amazing vision of what our yard could look like. Johnny, our project manager, was so communicative the whole process through. And Craig and his crew of Alex, Nate and Joel fast became part of our family while working in the trenches. Those four guys went above and beyond at every turn with Craig leading the helm. We cannot even come close to expressing how much we appreciate their meticulous workmanship. It’s clear they take great pride in their work and have a ton fun while doing it. They truly made what was a plan on paper come to life in the most beautiful way. This particular crew earns our highest recommendation!

We had a truly wonderful renovation on our backyard by Alderwood Landscaping. From start to finish, they were professional and obviously took great pride in their work. They made a beautiful plan for our backyard, making sure to take into account our wishes and feedback. The work was done correctly and in a timely fashion once it started. My only complaint is that it took them 6-7 months from when we signed with them until they were able to start as they are quite popular. Overall, our backyard is now an oasis which looks like it is out of a magazine. We love it, use it often, and are very happy customers.

Incredible attention to detail from Johnny, Devin, Jose, and Bryan, and the entire Alderwood team! Our backyard looks great! Thanks guys!

We are so happy with our backyard project. The end product turned out great, and the process was so smooth and easy for us. Patrick was very good at communicating each day the progress and what to expect in coming days. Patrick, Matt and Anthony worked hard, long days and were very respectful, friendly and accommodating. We love that the project was finished on time, but honestly will miss the crew! They were wonderful.

We had Alderwood Landscape Architecture and Construction design, reimagine, and reconstruct our backyard, and we absolutely LOVE it! We are giving ALDERWOOD 5 STARS but we would give them a GAZILLION more stars if we could. Let us just say we fell in love with this company and the dynamic team from the first contact with Nicole (sales and office assistant) and during our first visit from Tim Glass (Head Landscape Architect) to discuss our project. Then we were awestruck again when Devin Vine (site leader) and his AWESOME crew of Jose Sr, Jose Jr and Santos walked into our backyard and immediately put us at ease with their bias for action, attention to detail and customer obsession. Then we met Johnny Struiksma AKA “Iron Man”! Johnny is the backbone of the operation and his background as a landscape architect, skill in leading and managing people and problem solving was central to the success of the project. The Alderwood team had to deal with poor drainage, complex requirements, logistic issues, and many other things. They addressed all these challenges with professionalism, poise, and excellent communication. The result was a beautiful “Zen like” backyard oasis that exceeded our expectations. They built a beautiful entryway to our backyard that ensures a surprise as soon as our guests cross into our yard. The backyard has three unique but connected spaces. It includes a Zen like garden space. A patio that is perfect for entertaining and relaxing on a warm Summer night, And, to finish, a fire pit that is a fantastic focal point that creates an alluring atmosphere to chill and socialize—serving to complement our backyard oasis on a starry night. The overall design is, at the same time, both beautiful and practical. Alderwood’s talented team is no doubt a very critical part of their success but the secret sauce is the strength and conviction of their leadership. From the top down, they represent and instill their company philosophy and their extraordinary values and virtues down to every team member and each team member embodies these values back to their customers. The management team reinforces these beliefs through genuine respect and care for their people and values each worker. Because of this, they get great things done on a consistent basis. They all are the best team of contractors and service providers my husband and I have ever experienced, bar none! From the very beginning and through the end, Alderwood was professional and top notch throughout our entire project. Never a sleepless night or stressful day when working with Alderwood. When have you ever said that about a contractor :-) Thank you all for such an amazing outcome and service! Alderwood is a fantastic company and there are just not enough accolades we can say or write that represent how happy we feel about all of you, your work ethic, quality, customer service, attention to detail, follow through, etc. Just incredibly awesome!

Working with Alderwood Landscaping was a phenomenal experience. From design with Tim to the crew led by Craig, I could not be move pleased with our project. Craig and crew made the construction process seamless from our perspective, communicated clearly and effectively, and worked hard every day to deliver a beautiful end result. Thanks for delivering a beautiful project. Highly recommend!

This was our second project with Alderwood and just like the first time, it was amazing from start to finish. Tim Glass did an incredible job architecting things. Beyond pleased with how Devin and the crew brought the vision to life in our our side yard and front yard. Thorough and detailed work that went by very quickly, with excellent communication throughout the process. Highly recommend these professionals!

Wow. It’s as simple as that. Every person that helped on our outdoor living space backyard oasis project went above and beyond to make it perfect. Tim was a wiz with the plantings. Johnny was on top of everything from start to finish. Their carpenters, masons, and electricians were all amazing. Justin’s attention to detail made everything flawless. There’s no need to look anywhere else but Alderwood Landscaping.

These guys are undeniably one of the most professional and fantastic teams I have come across. From a swampy marshland to my ideal backyard, they saw my vision and executed every step with finesse and professionalism. A huge shout out to Bryan Navarro for the architectural design, Jonathan Struiksma for the coordination and our renovation crew led by Craig and his team are nothing short of the best in the business!! Thank you Alderwood

I am absolutely impressed with Alderwood Lanscaping. Rarely in my experience construction has been so smooth, from planning, to execution, to cleanup. Good landscape architecture and great scheduling, ability to stay on top of sub contractors, amazing crew for actual construction. In our case, we also had really tough drainage problems that they were able to solve flawlessly. We worked with Tim Glass for architecture, Jonathan Struiksma for scheduling and management, and our construction crew was led by Nick Lane. Across the board amazing service, even the ones I haven't mentioned here.

We love our new backyard patio! Patrick and Johnny worked meticulously last summer to make sure every detail was addressed. The patio is beautiful. The landscaping plan by Tim is great and works well with what we already had in the front of the house. The entire team is extremely professional and thoughtful about every step of the process -- and the crew worked super hard through some hot weather at the end of the summer. They also managed the permitting seamlessly and, on top of all of that, they stayed on schedule and were done quickly. The new patio has also held up very well this winter. Thank you, Alderwood!

We're mid-way through a very large project but wanted to get a review in early to heap praise on our crew. Our project is on the difficult side with considerable elevation changes, but the crew showed up every day eager to be there and to take care of us – even when we got 2" of rain in a single day and formed a temporary lake! A very special shout out to our Site Manager Pat: Your professionalism and dedication to ensuring *we're* happy – putting us first – has made all the difference in this project. Thank you. Thanks also to Tim, Johnny, Devin, José, Santos and Alex! We enjoyed you guys being around every day and it seems a little odd without you guys as part of our daily routine. (And fingers crossed this next phase goes smoothly without too many stoppages for snow!)

The Alderwood team did a fabulous job in renovating our yard space. Right from the design process through construction the team was a pleasure to work with. The work quality is excellent and the folks were very professional as well. I highly recommend this company.

When we set out to redo our backyard, we wanted to make the area a resort type setting. We wanted the area to be one we could do everything from relax to host parties in. These guys got it down. Design, ideas, options, etc., no job or detail is to big, nor too small. Customer service throughout was top notch. A special call out to Pat, Devon, and the crew. Professional doesn’t say enough about these guys. Their excellence and attention to detail, and timelines of project completion, is second to none. The finished project speaks for itself and we are beyond happy with the result. This is phase 1 of the remodel, and we are super excited to kick off the second phase. Thanks for making this project fun, and excited to get you back out here. The laughs, exciting energy, and determination for excellence makes this place the only landscaping company to go with (from my view).

Our just-finished backyard is absolutely incredible! We ran through a design process with Tim Glass, where his team iterated with us on various ideas for the back yard. At each stage, they were patient, collaborative, and reacted eagerly to feedback we had around budget, scope, and priorities. We ended up with a design that checked all the boxes, and we couldn't wait to see come to life! Tim handed off to project manager Johnny Struiksma, who has been great at keeping us informed, getting decisions, and keeping everything moving. Finally, most importantly, Jordan Nystul and his crew, who all basically lived on our property for 6 months. The breadth and depth of their skill set was tremendous, as was their work ethic--every day, whatever the weather, they were here cranking hard! In addition, they were always very considerate about how to work around the rhythm of our life, and how to tweak the project to best fit our plans, timelines, schedule. We can't recommend Alderwood enough!

When we decided to re-imagine our backyard and modernize the space from the original 80's layout, we interviewed 3 different companies including Alderwood Landscaping. Tim Glass met with us to understand our needs/wants/ideas and we were immediately inspired by his vision on how to transform our backyard living space into a completely gorgeous layout. The upfront cost to have plans drawn is worth every penny as Tim's design incorporated our wants; large outdoor living space, less grass, low maintenance plants, custom fire table, custom outdoor BBQ kitchen island, etc. Johnny, Tim and our onsite manager Pat have been amazing every step of the way. Johnny responds back to any of our questions / concerns immediately and Pat is simply the best. He has great ideas and can make on the fly decisions to keep our project on track. The team shows up everyday on time with a positive attitude - even when digging ditches for new drainage! I highly recommend Alderwood Lanscaping !

Alderwood has recently completed a backyard landscaping project for us. It has been a fantastic experience working with the Alderwood team, starting with the landscape architects Tim and Johnny throughout the design process and the follow-ups during the construction. The construction crew led by Patrick & Drew did a wonderful job to bring the beautiful design to life. Everyone made sure the customer is the top priority and addressed any questions/concerns right away. I highly recommend Alderwood, Tim Glass and the team!

Patrick, Walter and Drew were an awesome team! Our project was particularly expansive. They paid superb attention to detail, were extremely responsive and flexible with our particular interests, very efficient and really have a great eye for design. We are so appreciative of their efforts and results. We love to use our outdoor space!

We needed to completely redo / renovate our front and backyard and reached out to Alderwood. Tim Glass was incredible in capturing our thoughts, ideas and our desires for use and maintenance. Not only was he professional but extremely responsive and followed through on all commitments. He’s funny too and gelled well with our personalities. Let’s be clear, Alderwood is a “design build” company and thus you pay a premium for their work. Which is what we needed as we did not want to manage such a large complicated project. And the quality, service, and outcome reflects that. Our end results are absolutely stunning and exactly what we envisioned. Jonathan, our PM was equally responsive and professional. Especially when we had questions about some selections of stone, etc. It was important to both Tim and Jonathan that we were happy with our choices and met us the stone place for selections. This is even after we selected flag stones and they arrived and I realized they would not fit our overall look. Not a peep from the team and the stones were returned and we selected new ones. The crew who worked on our site; Jordan, Nate, and Marvin were amazing. Showed up each day (Many days in pouring rain) with a smile as we walked through the project every morning for status and next steps. They ensured everything was exactly what we wanted. Answered all my questions and moved and changed even the smallest little adjustments. They were prompt and cleaned up the job site every day to perfection. They too were funny and a great crew to be around. They were respectful and professional throughout. We can highly recommend Alderwood to anyone who are thinking about a complete new yard or modifications to an existing space. Ours included, patios, fire pit, boulders and outcroppings, and landscaping / planting. We absolutely love it.

looks proffasional really nice works ! love it ! defently will use your Alderwood Landscape Architecture and Construction some day in life !

We can not say enough great things about the team at Alderwood. Outdoor space is a rare commodity in our neighborhood and we desperately wanted to take the useless space we had and turn it into something we could enjoy. We knew after meeting their landscape architect, Tim, that this was the perfect company to bring our vision to life. He met with us several times to talk about our wants and needs and worked with the HOA and architectural review board to get our design approved quickly. Jonathan and his onsite crew were amazing from start to finish! He was always in constant contact with the subcontractors so we always knew who was coming when, what they would be doing and how long they'd be at the house. Jonathan always took the time to answer questions and kept us in the loop about every detail of the plan. The outdoor space the Alderwood team created was far beyond anything we could have envisioned. We highly recommend Alderwood for their professionalism, quality and customer service!!

We hired Alderwood to reimagine our backyard including a gorgeous water feature with small pond, re-tiling a large patio and installing a putting green. They also did extensive drainage work, which was really important. The experience was just fantastic from Bryan’s design and Jonathan’s oversight to the amazing daily care of the crew headed by Patrick and his hard workers Drew, Walter and Chase. Patrick really cares about his clients and never said no to a single idea we had. I would not hesitate to use them again and would highly recommend their work.

We hired Alderwood in the fall of 2018 to do a complete design and install on our backyard including a large patio with retaining wall - coordinated with a pool install - regrading areas , plantings, etc.. The project turned out beautiful and was completed in June 2019. In late January, the severe rain storms that hit our area overran our property drainage system (that had worked for the last 30 years) and flooded our property and house crawl space. This was NOT an Alderwood issue, however, we were desperate for help to stop the water. I called Alderwood and within an hour Jordan Muhs arrived with a pump and 2 crew members who immediately started hand digging a 20 ft. trench to redirect the overflow of rainwater away from our house. An hour later the pump was installed in our crawl and running full force, and the trench that they dug was carrying off water and the flooding was stopped! Jordan came by the next morning to be sure everything was still draining properly and their pump still running. I can't begin to say how over the top their response was to my problem, nor how much I appreciate the attitude and work that Jordan and his guys were able to accomplish or us.

6 years ago Alderwood did a beautiful makeover of our backyard, including waterfall, lighted pond, fire pit and other improvements. Over the years, some of the lighting failed and the waterfall wasn’t working as it should. When I called them, the person answering the phone was great. The guys cane out the very next day, scoped out the job. They came back the next day, installed everything. Explained what else we might need. It was a real pleasure working with these professionals. I definitely recommend them!

We hired Alderwood Landscaping and Design to convert our existing landscape into a more beautiful and functional space, something we had been wanting to do for many years. I am pleased to say that our expectations were surpassed, and we are delighted with the result! Tim Glass, the landscape architect for the project, was a pleasure to work with as he met with us several times to refine the design as he endeavored to understand what we were after and to stay within the constraints of our budget. The unexpected surprise on this project was that they had a construction opening after we signed the contract, due to some permit delays on other projects, so the demo and construction work started immediately, several months ahead of our expectation. The project manager Johnny and the construction crew – Craig, Adam, Dustin, and Alex – were awesome! They were a pleasure to get to know and talk to about what we wanted, and they bent over backwards to make sure that everything was just right. For example, as they were cutting and placing the stones for the steps, there would have been a 6” gap that would not have looked very good with a small filler piece, so Craig recut the other stones to make everything look symmetrical, and the result is beautiful! I highly recommend Alderwood and Craig’s crew if you are looking for someone to develop your landscaping project!

We are nearing completion of our 3rd project with Alderwood, dating back over the past 8 years. Repeat business is a sure sign of satisfaction in our case! Our backyard has been transformed into "backyard resort living", to borrow Alderwood's tag line! Tim Glass has done a fantastic job in capturing our vision and translating it to a plan. Our crews have been consistently great from start to finish. As per other reviewers, we will also attest to their friendliness and courtesy, attention to daily clean-up, care for our property and extra efforts at delivering a superb product. Our current project includes a water feature, which we always thought was beyond our budget. We couldn't be more pleased! Tim and the entire crew brought so much positive energy, it was fun watching them bring it all together. We especially appreciate our current crew including Craig, Adam, Dustin and Alex. They are skilled artists who bring things together (like very large rocks!) to produce a magically wonderful natural setting. They consistently demonstrate attention to detail, even details the customer doesn't see. The follow-up and warranty work over the years has been excellent. This is a very important part of Alderwood's product, and we especially appreciate it. Special thanks also to Dann and Johnny for their expertise and availability. Alderwood has our highest recommendation!

We moved to our new home earlier this year in anticipation of retirement at year end. We were delighted with the house, which sits on over four acres, but the landscaping hadn’t been well maintained and didn’t match the way we hope to enjoy our home for the next twenty years. After doing some research, we contacted Alderwood Landscaping and met with Tim Glass to discuss our initial ideas for improving the landscaping. Tim visited us at our home, walked with us around the property, listened carefully to our ideas, and offered some suggestions of his own. Based on that conversation and on our favorable impression of other Alderwood projects we had viewed online, we decided to work with Tim on some initial design ideas. Alderwood began by completing a survey of the existing landscaping and improvements. With this information, Tim prepared some initial design concepts for us to review and discuss, along with some preliminary cost estimates. When reviewing his concepts, we were impressed at how carefully he had listened to us while also delighting us with some ideas we hadn’t previously considered. The cost estimates were higher than we originally expected, but Tim took time to explain the cost implications of each component of the project so we could make thoughtful decisions about adjusting the scope of work to better match our budget. Alderwood was able to start the work in early summer, sooner than we initially anticipated, and worked steadily on it through completion in early fall. The on-site crew of four, led by Jordan, worked very hard throughout the project duration. They were very professional, communicated extensively with us on a daily basis to make sure the work met our expectations, and offered suggestions along the way to make a great design even a little better. The project involved extensive hardscaping on sloping terrain, including rock retaining walls, a water feature with waterfalls, some flagstone walkways and pavestone patios. We were delighted at the artistry with which Jordan and his team were able to transform a pile of boulders into a beautiful Pacific Northwest landscape. We were so pleased with the design and workmanship that, before it was completed, we added more work that we had originally deferred until some later time. There are still some details to be completed in the spring, but we are thoroughly delighted and amazed at the transformation Alderwood has made to our landscape. We will enjoy this investment for many years to come. Based on our experience and satisfaction, we heartily recommend Alderwood, Tim, and the entire team with whom we had the pleasure of working.

Alderwood created a beautiful outdoor living space in our backyard that we absolutely love! Tim produced a plan that was more functional and unique than we could have ever imagined on our own. He incorporated new steps out of the house, large boulders for seating, pavers, new landscaping, turf and a large rectangular fire pit. Patrick and his crew were with us daily for a few weeks during construction. They were professional, courteous and great communicators. The whole process was so easy, with a gorgeous result that we are excited to enjoy for years to come. Highly recommend Alderwood to anyone in the market for new backyard!

Just finished a 2nd project with Alderwood Landscaping. We worked with this company in 2011 for our 1st backyard project including patio extension, firepit build, water feature and pergola. We decided to add to our patio space to accomodate a hot tub with this recent project. Patrick and his crew were fantastic and professional to work with. From planning to finish, it has always been a pleasure working with this company. Highly recommend!

My husband and I had a modest sized but very visible project we needed to have done. We wanted to double the size of a flower bed in the front corner of our property, highly visible to the street. This was not as straightforward as it would sound since it required removing a significant amount of sod, building up the elevation of this area, moving existing landscaping lights, adding landscaping lights and moving and changing the irrigation infrastructure to the meet our new needs. The plantings in this area were also extensive. Jordan and Matt took care to use excellent materials, to discuss the needs of the irrigation both now and as the plantings would grow. They did a wonderful job working with us on the placement of the plants and laying out the centerpieces of the garden bed and adding light to enhance the appearance of the bed. It turned out just as we hoped it would. They completed the task on time and on budget and kept the site clean as they did the work. We were extremely happy and will have them back to do future work for us.

Alderwood Landscaping is a great company. After a couple meetings with Tim, he created an outdoor living space with a courtyard, water feature, and fire pit to compliment our modern/contemporary home. Pat and his crew (Drew, Tacho, and Tyler) were professional and worked hard every day. It only took us 6 weeks to complete our project. We are very happy with our final product and our water feature is a stunning piece of art (they created a water cascade from a trilogy of columnar basalt rocks)

It's rare to work with a team of people who values their craftsmanship, customer satisfaction, integrity and loves what they do. My experience with Alderwood has been outstanding from day one to completion. They transformed my backyard that was boring, unusable and full of drainage issues, into a modern japanese inspired garden that is truly a backyard retreat for my family and friends. Tim and Johnny, the architects did a great job laying out their vision and collaborating with us personalize the plans, and provided full guidance from a plant pallete to furniture and color selections. They labored through various approval HOA issues on my behalf and was in contact throughout the entire project. Craig and his landscaping team worked hard through many weeks with attention to detail. They were always friendly, on time, considerate and very proactive in helping out. Their sub-contractors for the patio structure (Jeff) and masonry (Kurt) were amazing as well. I would not hesitate to hire them again or recommend them to anyone. Well done Alderwood, and thank you for the great work and for making this family feel taken cared of.

We had a great experience with Alderwood. We worked with Tim to design a new landscape, pavilion and fireplace area for our backyard. Patrick was the onsite PM and was awesome to work with. He and his crew were courteous and professional. They worked super hard to meet their deadlines and produced great quality. Alderwood also brought in a third party builder for the pavilion who also did great work. We are very happy with the result.

Team ALDERWOOD is the best in class! We worked with Tim Glass and Alderwood early this year with the design for our backyard resort. Tim was super patient with us and really listened to our wants. We could not be happier with the final result - which includes is an icelandic style water feature, nature hedge, aquaqip swim spa and a completely redone backyard. Alderwood did an amazing job with our backyard. Not only we were impressed with their exceptional workmanship, the whole team was extremely courteous and accommodating thru the project. We were extremely impressed with quality of work. Our experience was extremely positive from start to finish. Huge shout out to Tim, Nick, Jose, Matt, Dana and everyone involved in the project.

Kudos to a team of true professionals! Tim worked hard to create a space that would fit my special needs (wheelchair bound), Johnny was super helpful along the way guiding me through the process and Pat, the onsite PM, was phenomenal. The whole team was great but seeing Pat's smiling face and "can-do" attitude each day was great. I felt very taken care of. The attention to detail was over the top! I highly recommend this company. Couldn't be happier.

Alderwood Landscaping did an amazing job with our backyard. We had turf installed, a sport court, pavers and many many shrubs, trees and lighting. It turned out amazing. Exactly like the plans that Tim designed! Patrick and Drew were our onsite contacts and they made it so easy for me to know what was going on and what was coming next. They have a warranty program and our grass developed snow spots and they are going to replace the grass with new sod since grass seed didn't take. Though they may take awhile to do this they offer this warranty program so the customer can rest assured their yard will look great even if plants/grass don't take due to the weather initially.

We worked with Tim Glass and Alderwood over a couple of years to come up with the design for our backyard resort. Tim was super patient with us and really listened to our wants. We could not be happier with the final result - which includes Pool, hard landscaping with beautiful natural stone, repositioning our hot tub to take advantage of our views and an outdoor kitchen and fire pit. The team was awesome and worked fantastically with other contractors - special shout out here to how they worked with Aquaquip on the pool. You can see the before and after pics here : www.houzz.com/projects/5504529/issaquah-highlands-backyard-oasis. We know we will enjoy this for many years to come! Thanks Tim and team! https://www.houzz.com/projects/5504529/issaquah-highlands-backyard-oasis

We hired Alderwood to complete a backyard renovation with two important goals in mind: more privacy and better use of a yard that was mostly sloped. Although we could have gone with a less expensive company we chose Alderwood for what we hoped would be a stress free experience and beautiful result, and they did not disappoint. Their work is absolutely stunning; this is a company that takes great pride in creating a truly beautiful landscape. A high level of professionalism and courteousness runs through this entire company, and we greatly appreciated this. When our project ran up against what had the potential to be a big problem, Tim and the construction crew quickly figured out a way to resolve the issue - and we didn’t even know about it until a solution had already been found! Tim is an excellent designer with a very discerning eye. He will zero in on any detail that isn’t quite right and make it beautiful. We cannot wait to see how the trees he selected will mature and fill the landscape over time. While Tim is the visionary, Alderwood’s construction crew are the talented professionals who bring the design to life. They work very long days in sometimes challenging weather and they always make sure to leave the working area clean and organized when they are done. Thank you Patrick and crew for such excellent work! We are so looking forward to enjoying many years in our beautiful backyard. Thank you Alderwood!

Alderwood did a fantastic job for us starting with the great design work done by Tim followed by several months of outstanding work by the construction team. Nick was great to work with as the day to day lead - talented, creative, responsive, reliable, excellent communicator. José is a real craftsman and Matt and Mike did excellent work day in and day out, always pleasant; there was great attention to detail by everyone on the team. Johnny was excellent with budget and schedule management, change orders and issue resolution. I specially appreciated how effectively and seamlessly the Alderwood team worked with our general contractor and pool contractor on related projects. Alderwood is great; don't hesitate to hire them for your project; you will not be disappointed.

We hired Alderwood to complete our recent landscaping project. They did a fabulous job. From site review, architectural design, construction to clean up they were very detailed and excellent to work with. We would definitely recommend them for your large landscaping project.

After researching several landscapers, we settled on Alderwood Landscaping and we are so glad we did. Professionalism from top to the bottom of the company. Not only was I impressed with their exceptional workmanship, the whole team was extremely courteous and accommodating thru the project. My neighbors were always commenting how friendly, helpful and hard working the guys were. Everyday they cleaned up and I never felt like I had to stay on of the top project because Mike and Seth’s teams never cut corners. They always gave me updates, asked questions and sent pictures as they moved thru the project...basically treating my project/home like it was theirs. They are top notch group of guys “finish carpenters of landscaping”. Plain and simply this company does beautiful work!

This is a long one, so here’s the bottom line: these guys are highly professional, dedicated, responsive, experienced individuals who will bend over backwards to create your dream outdoor space. The nitty gritty—We contacted these guys in July 2017 to discuss our project involving a large covered stone patio, water feature, hot tub, and fire pit. About a week later we met with architect Tim Glass who we ended up meeting with 4 more times over the next 2 months to finalize our dream concept. While concessions had to be made in order to accommodate our budget, all the features we wanted ended up being included in some form or another. Tim doesn’t cut corners just to get a design done. He really takes the time to work and rework his plan in order to make you 100% happy. Once we approved the design and paid a hefty deposit, work was scheduled to start the week before Thanksgiving. That’s when we met the best workers and human beings we’ve gotten to meet in our lives. Our assigned team of builders showed up everyday by 7:30 am and worked daily until after dark. Seth (aka Cuddly Pitbull), the project manager, isn’t just a outstanding builder. He’s a true gentleman, an artist, a guy who takes pride in his work, a joy to have around. He and his sidekicks Collin (aka The Flash) and Jordan (aka Johnny Depp) worked steadily in the rain and the cold with the most positive attitude. I would sometimes interrupt them in the middle of challenging work to request that a certain thing be done a certain way and they would happily comply. Their energy and composure in harsh weather conditions were truly inspirational. Our project was completed in 6 weeks, quicker than expected. They left everything spotless, which was no small feat considering how muddy the whole situation had been. The result was mind blowing. Not only did everything look beautiful, but it was DONE RIGHT. No more drainage issues or poorly located sprinkler heads. The materials used make everything a breeze to maintain. We enjoyed having these guys around so much, it was hard to see them leave. The supervisory team was equally outstanding. Johnny Struiksma was in charge of communication and supervision. Not only would he stop by the job site on a regular basis, he was easy to reach via email and responded to our inquiries within a couple of hours. On the rare occasion that he wasn’t available, Dann Van Hook would step in for him. Johnny also took care of communicating with the subcontractors on our behalf, which relieved us of ay additional burden. Work and payment schedules were always communicated to us clearly, and always in writing. Towards the end of the project, Johnny emailed to make sure we didn’t have any final requests and that everything was done to our liking. It’s now been a few months since the project was completed and we LOVE our backyard. We spend more time in our outdoor space than inside, rain or shine. Alderwood is simply the best builder we’ve ever worked with and it’s heartwarming these days to know that there are still people out there who take pride in their work are not just out to make a quick buck. Sure, it was an expensive project, but we got our money’s worth and then some.

We were extremely impressed with Alderwood’s quality of work, attention to detail and professionalism! Our team (Jordan, Casey, Omar and Johnny) completely transformed our .5 acre. The team installed sprinklers, hydroseeded, planted 300+ trees and plants, built a new stone patio and fire pit... the list goes on and on. They were so hard working and dedicated - showing up on time and powering through all day. Our landscape design was spot-on! I would recommend Alderwood to anyone.

If a quality job is what you're after, Alderwood will NOT disappoint. Our team of Kris Krohn, Seth, Collin and Tyler were the best group of people we have ever worked with on a project. Initially, in an attempt to be cost effective, we considered contracting some aspects of the project to other landscape firms. But in the end, decided to have Alderwood do the entire project and were so glad we did. The job was started and completed on time, the team showed up every morning and worked a full day. The professionalism, creativity and workmanship exceeded our expectations. Seth definitely is an artist when it comes to working with rocks! We highly recommend Alderwood

Tim from Alderwood has been absolutely fantastic to work with. He has been prompt and timely for our meetings. He follows through on his commitments. He takes ownership for his projects and doesn't dump project tasks on his customers. His designs were amazing and I am so grateful because he literally saved our project. I would highly recommend Tim and his team at Alderwood!!!

After moving into our new house, the prospect of landscaping a 1+ acre lot was daunting to say the least. However, Alderwood made it a painless and actually an enjoyable process from start to finish. The entire team consisted of true professionals who made me realize that there are still plenty of hard working people out there that take great pride in their work. Let me highlight what made this process so enjoyable: • Great design work by Kris Krohn and project management by Dann Van Hook; they did a great job listening to us and coming up with a solid plan. When I had questions, they were quick to respond and find answers. • Hard workers; team of three showed up right after July 4th and were committed to us for about the next 6 weeks. We were their sole job; they weren’t jumping back and forth between us and other projects which was tremendous. The team consistently rolled in around 7 am and worked full days to get the job done in a very timely manner. • Genuinely good people working on the job – we had the same team for basically the whole job. Great guys, all friendly and very helpful. Seth Kernodle led the team on the job site and really kept things moving along in a professional manner. One time I was moving furniture off the patio for another contractor and when I came back around the corner, all three individuals had stopped what they were doing and were instead helping me move the remaining furniture. It’s hard to find that caliber of a team these days. • Great design was made better by Seth’s implementation of new ideas on the fly. He continually looked for ways to make improvements; a little extra rock or dirt became something new and exciting in the plan as it came to life. Alderwood’s dynamic approach to implementing the design in real time was tremendous. • Attention to detail/dedication to their craft; we have some large rock retaining walls and we are always getting compliments on them. These are not your basic stacked stone/quick walls. These were carefully crafted with meticulous attention to detail. This attention to detail was repeated all throughout the project. Everything was meticulously done; great pride in their work. A great experience from start to finish – Alderwood is highly recommended.

We really wanted to create a backyard oasis, but we're a bit nervous about finding a contractor to tackle such a big job and being able to meet our standards. From the moment we initially spoke with Alderwood we felt at ease and everything was perfect. Tim Glass did a fantastic job as our architect, and overall partner on this project. His ideas were stunningly beautiful, and worked with us to get exactly what we wanted. Execution of the job was on time, on budget, and exceeded what we hoped for. When was the last time even two of those happened to you? Nick and his crew were professional and fast. The whole experience was fantastic and we would absolutely recommend and will use Aldewood for all of our future projects!

I would like to recommend Alderwood Landscape for your next outdoor remodel. We worked with Tim Glass on the overall design and function of our large, blank space back yard and the finished results are exactly what we had envisioned. We wanted our backyard to have a sophisticated European vibe with plenty elements of fun added in. Our yard now has an artificial grass space (perfect for the sunny spring days when the regular grass is still wet), a large professional sport court (built by Sport Court Inc), a perimeter bike bath that leads back to the court, a gas firepit, and a hot tub. It's like living in our own beautiful park. We have enjoyed our new backyard immensely and are thrilled to have an area to relax, play and enjoy year round. The crew was amazing from our initial consultation with Tim to the overall project management by Dann, to the hands on labor headed by Nick. The finished results are timeless, elegant and greatly enhance our property. If you are looking into a new backyard remodel, you won't be disappointed after choosing Alderwood Landscape to head up your project.

The team at Alderwood really went above and beyond for us and delivered a backyard solution that we love! In addition, they went out of their way to meet a deadline we had for getting our project done in time for a backyard party we were hosting. The quality, creativity and shared vision that Alderwood provided was exactly what we were looking for and we are happy to say it is exactly what we got!

We just finished an extensive remodel of our outdoor spaces on almost an acre of land with Alderwood. We spent almost 2 years conceptualizing our general design before we called Alderwood and when Tim came into the picture, he helped refine our vision and we settled on the final designs. Nick and his crew Jose and Drew then showed up to make these designs come to life. They did outstanding work. Nick has an eye for knowing how to work with stone. They built 2 beautiful water features, a dry falls and a stunning patio. They helped us preserve mature and existing vegetation while updating the landscaping at the same time. They were patient, the communication was excellent. They were detailed and very collaborative during the entire process. When they were finished, Dann, Joe, Nick, Jose, Drew and Tim were all available for questions. The final clean up was impeccable, thank you Jose. When you have planned for such a long period for a project of this scope, your expectations are high. Alderwood exceeded our expectations.! Thanks to the entire crew.

If you want to get the Rolls Royce of landscaping, go with Alderwood Landscape. We’ve worked with several construction companies in the past, Alderwood is the only one that has overdelivered with precise timing and on budget. Tim Glass was great to work with from the beginning, helping us to transform an unusable backyard into an awesome backyard resort living experience. Dan Van Hook and the crew, Nick Lane, José and Drew were very professional and flexible. What they did was art! If we ever move to another home, we would definitely do it all over again. Thank you Alderwood Landscape!

I contacted this company for a design consultation, not knowing quite what the plan for my backyard should be. I was extremely impressed with the project manager, Kris Krohn, who came to my house and walked me through all kinds of options, including many that his company would not be the primary supplier for, but he took the time to share any and all ideas, and even connected me with other companies that he recommends for the relevant items. I appreciate that he took the time and provided sterling customer service even to someone who needs to have other work done before proceeding with design.

Our experience with Alderwood Landscape was extremely positive from start to finish. We hired them to do extensive hardscaping on two sides of the house which included tearing out & replacing a front porch with block & pavers, replacing and enlarging a walkway and patio area to match, and building a large retaining wall and topping it with pavers to make a large patio area on the opposite side of the house. Kris, the landscape architect was exceedingly patient in helping us to develop and refine our vision for this project. He met with us multiple times to fine tune the plans and guide us through the process, always striving to make sure we were happy with the plan and on budget. He was consistently available and involved from start to finish. The crew doing the work were phenomenal! They were highly skilled and professional in every way. They were on time every day and worked incredibly hard throughout every day of the project. They showed great attention to detail and worked hard to make sure that everything was as close to perfect as possible. They showed great problem solving skills when the unexpected surprise would crop up - as sometimes happens, and were always more than happy to accommodate any tweaks or changes we wanted to make along the way. They made their deadline and while they were fast they were still extremely proficient. We found everyone involved in this project to be polite, enjoyable and a very real pleasure to work with. We are extremely happy with the final outcome!! We cannot say enough good things about this company, their business practices, the quality of their work and the people involved with Alderwood. It always felt like they were going the extra mile for us but I'm sure all of their clients must feel this way. We would hire them again without hesitation. Thank you Mike Franks for absolutely everything!!! Thank you Colyn and Ellis for your very hard work, skill and dedication to the project. We are over the moon happy with the way it all turned out. Eric & Kim Strand

Our experience with Alderwood was wonderful from beginning to fruition. To start, Kris, our landscape architect, came to our building site to measure and discuss the project. My husband and I really had no definitive plan in mind, and so knew that we needed to feel confident in the company we chose. Kris is an excellent listener, and worked with us through several versions of a plan until we were ready to go forward. Everyone we worked with at Alderwood was very professional. When the boulders and slab rocks were delivered we were completely amazed at how beautiful and huge they were. Mike and his guys set the rocks with artistry, precision, and efficiency. Everyone we were involved with at Alderwood takes pride in the service that they provide, and the results show it. Our backyard went from a sloping field of dirt to a beautiful arrangement of boulders, slab steps, flagstone walkways, and lovely curves of warm toned sidewalk and curbing. We are very happy and would highly recommend them.

Alderwood team took the time to refine our plan to give us our dream backyard within our planned budget. The crew has been friendly, considerate and extremely hardworking. We are loving the results and couldn't be happier with the entire process.

Alderwood Landscape did a fabulous job with our backyard "remodel." The Landscape Architect met with us and we talked at length about our goals and how they could help us meet them. He 'dug in" to help us figure out how we would use our space, so that the work they did would not only be beautiful, but a complement to our lifestyle. The construction team was always on time and very respectful and friendly. They worked hard and fast, and asked many times if I wanted any construction updates or explanation. At one point weather was a problem (part of our PNW life)! and they updated me constantly with the plan...what could be done and what needed to wait for dryer weather. The finished project is fabulous. Our fire pit is in a better spot, our entertaining space is beautiful, and the plants are the perfect fit. It all just flows so nicely. I truly thank the folks at Alderwood, from the LA to the Project Manager to the onsite construction leader and team. I would not hesitate to recommend them to anyone!

Our home was built in 1927 and was in need of serious major landscaping renovations. Issues such as improper drainage, crumbling bricks, sprinkler system blockage, poor lighting and the list continues. During the summer of 2015, we met with Kris, an Alderwood representative and he made such a sincere, competent and professional impression on us that we decided to hire Alderwood to remodel our yard in 2016. Kris provided us with plans and worked with us to insure that we were creating a project that would provide perfect and doable results for us. Fast forward to the past 2 months and those plans became a reality. Our Alderwood crew was led by Mike, assisted by Colin and Ellis. These men had incredible ability, dedication and were extremely hardworking. Not only did they do what was requested, but did what was needed so that no issues will occur in the future. Our one time investment will reap benefits forever. Our yard looks beyond beautiful.

We hired Alderwood Landscape 2016 for a major backyard renovation. They did a beautiful job and we love our backyard, however the fountain doesn’t work and despite several unanswered calls and emails, it remains broken. We have given up our attempt to contact them. So please be warned! Once you’ve made the last payment, it’s very hard to get them to return a phone call or email address.

Alderwood designed and implemented a remodel of our backyard, which involved substantial regrading as well as removal of our existing uneven paver patios and a rotting tie wall. When we initiated the process, we thought we would simply be upgrading our existing landscape plan, but the team at Alderwood came up with a design that highlighted the strengths of our property in a way that was far superior to the original plan, and was more functional as well. The crew was on time, on budget, and was very respectful. The end result exceeded our expectations, and we recommend this firm to others without reservations. .

I hired Alderwood Landscaping for a landscape project and they far exceeded my expectations. They turned my backyard into a resort with an amazing water feature, patio and fire pit. The Alderwood team was very professional and I would highly recommend them.

When we moved into our house last year we knew we would need to do a major renovation of our backyard. It was completely unusable and afforded a wonderful view that you could not access. We spent a year interviewing potential landscape contractors and once we met with Tim Glass from Alderwood Landscape Architecture and Construction, we knew we had found the right company for the project! Tim’s design completely transformed our unusable backyard to a resort style outdoor living area by using large landscape rocks, fire and light. From beginning to end, the entire project team was outstanding to work with. Dan Van Hook, Project Manager ensured the project started and finished on time and on budget and Nick Lane and his crew were courteous, professional and responsive. It was a true joy to watch Nick and his crew place the rocks and transform our yard. Our entire neighborhood also enjoyed watching the transformation and often stopped by to watch! There were a few major challenges with the job given the lot size and space and the Alderwood crew navigated it beautifully. We highly recommend Alderwood to anyone looking for a superior landscape architect and contractor.

Our backyard went from a pretty nice backyard to a resort-style experience! The service and skill of the Alderwood staff and crew are exceptional and quite professional. They work to personalize the project and tailor every design aspect to the owner's specifications. We enjoyed great collaboration and the attention to detail was terrific. Our backyard space is now so accessible and inviting that we enjoy dinner al fresco every night. The narrow back steps are gone, along with the tiny cookie cutter patio. The water feature, fire feature and plantings have transformed the space into a mesmerizing mirage that daily delights the senses! The natural stone brought in serves both design and use, form and function. The lighting adds drama and invites you to enjoy the eye candy at every turn as it extends your outdoor escape into the starry evening, warmed by the fire's glow.

We did a major project with Alderwood last year. Coming up on the 1 year guarantee for plants that didn't make it. Considering we planted approximately 300 plants the fact that we only lost 10 is truly amazing. Their warranty service is fast and efficient. Emailed them and within 2 days they were here to review plants and make replacement list. Scheduled to come by and install next week! Amazing warranty service.

Alderwood Landscapes did an extensive project for us that included a water feature, fire pit, pavers and plantings. Architect, Tim Glass did a masterful job with the overall design, exceeding our expectations. After the construction of the water feature had started, we realized it did not match what we had been envisioning. We called Tim and explained that the water feature was not working for us, and that we wanted to go a different direction with the design. Between Tim and the job foreman, Nick, we redesigned the water feature. Now the water feature is amazing! It has a very natural look and feel and has the soft sound of water that we were envisioning. Everyone at Alderwood was responsive, professional and fair. They really care that the customer is happy and take tremendous pride in their work. The foreman, Nick, went out of his way to accommodate some particular design details that we wanted. He was always patient and communicated with us very well. As a group, everyone at Alderwood worked well with our general contractor and other trades people on our project. We chose to have out stone mason do some work that was originally in Alderwoods's scope of work. Again, they were very accommodating and had no problem making adjustments to our contract accordingly. I highly recommend this company!

We decided to have Alderwood Landscaping bid on a large project that we had chosen for our new home based on the quality and professionalism of their Website. Tim Glass, Landscape Architect, made several visits to our home to ensure we understood their capabilities, share ideas, discuss costs and allow us to agree upon a teriffic plan that met our wishes within our budget. He then introduced us to Dann Van Hook, Project Manager and Brent Small, the Foreman that would be overseeing the project from start to finish. From the time they first deployed through the completion of the project, all members of their team were professional, communiated well and were very flexible to our requests with change orders. The project came in on budget and we are pleased beyond our expectations. Brent and his crew worked for months on our project and exhibited experience, talent and creativity. Even when weather events beyond their control surfaced, Brent dealt with them without loosing a beat. I would highly recommend Alderwood Landscape to anyone requiring a quality, resort like project and I would not hesitate to ask for the team refernced within. Rob and Trish Parker

We had an old, rotting deck in our back yard that we needed to replace, but not a lot of ideas about what to do with that space. Tim came out, looked at our back yard, discussed how we use it and what we wanted, then came up with a plan.. We were very impressed with Tim's professionalism and ideas. He gave us a large draft of the design so we could clearly see what the finished project would look like and make any modifications before the project started. Dann, the project manager, was very helpful in arranging the final details, and rearranging the job schedule to accommodate an event we had planned at our home. Once the project started, we were extremely impressed with Nick, who managed the daily work, keeping us well-informed of progress, and quickly responding to any questions or concerns. Nick was a complete pleasure to work with. Most importantly, we are so pleased with the end result! Our project was finished in September, right before the fall weather hit, but we are very excited to spend a lot of time on our new patio next spring and summer!

We were hoping to transform our yard into a quick get away. Someplace special just outside the door. A waterfall with a stream to the pond, with a few Alpine firs along the way did just that. The fire pit and night lighting complete the resort like feel. The process is amazing….. Professional. You can tell they have done this 1,000 times, but it is pretty cool to watch it happen the first time. The design process is the key time to perfect what you want, and they did a great job adding our few changes with their great artistic vision. Their online pictures in their web site say it all. You can tell the crews are experienced, work hard and are very skilled. They earn their Better Business Bureau A+ rating. The best part is the get away feeling happens every time we look out our windows. Stunning, still, especially when the night lights come on. You will feel pampered, like a 5 star resort, and your friends and family will remind you how blessed you are when they visit.

We interviewed several landscapers in our area and it was a no brainer to go with Alderwood. They came out to our house for the consultation and were right on time. We explained what we wanted, but were open for ideas. Once they sent over the drawings for review, we were very impressed. They were very easy to work with. Responded quickly to all of our calls, emails and requests. When the work started, they were here everyday, even when it rained. They focused on our project and got it done within the time frame expected. We had some settling and they came and out fixed any issue we had right away. They are artists and well worth it.

There are many things that Alderwood did right on our project, but some areas that could have been better. They completely overhauled our back yard, for a hefty price tag of about $110k. The work included the design for changes to the layout of the yard, installation of a large patio, placement of large landscape rocks, sod and plantings, new sprinkler system, as well as a covered outdoor kitchen area (the outdoor kitchen/structure was contracted to another company through Alderwood). After some road bumps working with Alderwood, after almost a year I am almost happy. The patio work is beautiful, and well done. The layout works well, and the placement of the landscape rocks and use of rock for steps is really nice. The downfalls I encountered had to do with the length of time it took to complete the project, and the planting portion of the work. The company got very busy during our project and work became sporadic. Part of this I believe is because they are based on the other side of the state and weren't over here for the entire work week. I think the other reason is because they were spread too thin and had to work on other jobs before ours was complete. As a result, they were rushed in the end and did the plantings without any discussion about what I wanted. After months of going back and forth, they have refunded a portion of the cost for the plants that I did not like. I had to purchase plants I liked and I installed the new plantings myself to get it to my liking. Alderwood people are coming back soon to re-do the bark topping since I've replanted, to pressure wash the patio so they can finally sand the pavers, and also to re-do the sod, which didn't take well in many spots. I feel that they made a good effort to fix the issues with this project, and they stand by their work.

Team ALDERWOOD is amazing! From design to the final product they are In a class of their own. They have perfected their craft by combining the best materials, superior craftsmanship, and designs that are amazing! We really can't say enough good things about their firm, and we look forward to working with them for many years to come.

We had a home that was exquisite in every way – except - we found out that a six bedroom home needed to have a backyard play area for the children who would occupy those bedrooms. Our house was great, the Real Estate Agent said after a month of looky-lou viewings, but it needed a backyard play area. We asked Alderwood Landscaping to create a design that would be economical, and yet provide a play area. We live on a hillside, so the challenge was not trivial. A Landscape Architect visited and quietly absorbed the setting, made measurements and provided us with the perfect solution utilizing a retaining wall and pathways so the kids could be observed from inside the house. I was amazed at the detail and the creative insights involved in what essentially was a simple approach, but made to look very high-end to match the home and neighborhood. We successfully sold the home a short time later. Thanks Alderwood!

We had a fantastic experience working with Alderwood Landscaping on a complete overhaul and redesign of our backyard. We started by working with Tim, a landscape architect, who helped us figure out exactly what we wanted in our backyard. He answered all of our questions, met with us on multiple occasions and reworked plans/drawings until they were just right. The demolition included ripping out an existing deck/patio, moving a hot tub, removal of old landscaping, and much more. We added a large patio space, an outdoor structure/kitchen, real grass and artificial turf, lighting, a gas fire pit, shrubs, trees, etc. The project started/finished when we expected. Each person that we worked with at the company was patient, knowledgeable, personable and very good at what they did. We always felt like our project was important to them and they would help us figure out how to get everything exactly how we wanted it. We were very impressed with each of the people that we dealt with at Alderwood Landscaping and their contractors. We absolutely love how our backyard turned out! It is beautiful, functional and comfortable. It is so much more than we had hoped for or expected when we started the project.

The company was excellent to work with. They were patient as we worked through our ideas for what we wanted, the designs were high quality and the staff was friendly and responsive. The project itself was done with as little disruption as possible and proceeded on the timeline they estimated. Cost was within shouting distance of the estimates and the workmanship was top notch. We are very pleased by the results and would happily recommend them to our friends!

I bought a home overlooking Coeur D Alene lake in early 2013. I contacted Alderwood in Spokane to discuss a spa and patio in that spring. Kris, a designer at Alderwood met with me at my house. He advised they often work with natural rock and offered a very reasonable initial price for a design drawing and quote. As part of the initial drawing, Alderwood had a surveyor record the property elevations, (my property is on a mountainside). I had another couple meetings with Kris to review the design drawing. Initially, I thought I might greatly change things on the drawings, but after walking the property, I realized the elevation changes favored the design layout proposed. As we discussed the layout, the drawing was revised only twice with minor changes to the final design that Alderwood subsequently completed. I came to have great confidence in Kris’s design capabilities and his advice on many items. (I was changing the exterior of the house at that time as well). I feel I benefited considerably from the expertise of the Alderwood personnel doing the landscape per the plan, which was accomplished within a summer month. The products used for the lighting, sprinkler systems, patio railing, wood wall to enclose a side of the house patio, pavers, and stone steps, was top quality in function and appearance. Alderwood’s design and installation way exceeded the quality and creativity a homeowner could do on their own and compares favorably with work done on the highest priced estates. The project totally transformed the property adding outdoor living space to more enjoy the great view from about a 600 ft elevation above of Coeur D Alene lake. I found Alderwood easy to work with on this fairly involved and complex project.

We hired Alderwood to replace our patio, which included removing old concrete steps and slab, re-grading and raising the level. Our house is on a steep hill, and equipment access to the back yard is limited. Alderwood was creative in their approach to this problem. Although the original plan to cover the stairs that lead to the yard with gravel in order to provide an access path for the Bobcat didn't work out as hoped (stairs were rotted), Alderwood removed and rebuilt the steps and only charged us for the materials. Almost any project like this will present unexpected challenges, but the entire project went very smoothly because of the Alderwood team's professionalism and commitment to doing a high quality job despite any obstacles. The project manager, Nick, had great communication skills and kept us informed of any changes or schedule adjustments. He replaced plants that were inadvertently killed during the job and was always very accommodating. The team's attention to detail was amazing. They replaced the gravel along the side of the driveway in an area that they had used as a staging area for loads of rock and dirt and even pressure-washed our long driveway when they were done. We were extremely happy with Alderwood and would absolutely recommend them.

Alderwood Landscaping never ceases to amaze me with the projects they can create, turning a back yard into a work of art. I've been working with them for the past three years, they always create beautiful landscapes and water features that are second to none.

I have worked with Dann at Alderwood Landscape for over 3 years. His best qualities are organization, timely, friendly and meticulas. My company does the gas installation and we always know when we need to be there, have contact info about the homeowner and always cordinates well with the other subs. The quality of Alderwood Landscapes work is amazing, I'm always very impressed and proud to say I worked on his sites. Dann is easy to work with, I would reccomend him to all my friends and family.

Tim and his team were hired to do a substantial overhaul of our front and back yards. The experience was excellent and the outcome exceeded our expectations. Of note: (1) on time; (2) on budget; (3) delivered precisely what had been agreed to; (4) responsive to feedback and questions throughout the project; (5) maintained a clean and well organized work area; (6) let's be real - Tim is good. His team makes him look even better. Nick, the job superintendent, works magic with his backhoe, he is creative, resourceful, on time every time, and works harder than most people I know. (7) Excellent attention to detail; (8) Alderwood handles the project as a team - the outcome is better for it because of it. (9) outside trades they refer and bring in are also excellent (Atlas Tree Services as an example); (10)... do you really need a 10th? A. Bogaard, Redmond, WA.

From beginning to end, our experience with Tim and his crew was an absolute pleasure. Tim listened to our ideas and worked diligently to create a backyard resort, with in our budget. We were thrilled with the landscaping plan he presented to us because of its extensive detail. We could literally visualize the finished project. Once construction began, Nick and his workers arrived on time every day and kept us informed of how things were progressing. We were extremely impressed with their work ethic. They often worked 8-10 hour days and I am not sure that I ever saw them take a break. The end result is better than we could have dreamed. No need to go on vacation, we have a resort in our backyard!

We hired Alderwood Landscaping to complete a major overhaul of our backyard including removal of an existing deck and installation of patio, water feature, fire pit, outdoor room, landscaping, lighting, and swim spa. Our Landscape Architect, Tim, listened to our ideas and created a beautiful design for our yard. Nick and his crew were exceptionally professional and very friendly and did a great job of keeping us updated on the progress daily. Dann, was helpful in explaining changes we made and providing detailed explanations on the financial aspects as we mutually decided on change orders. The project encountered a few stumbles due to unforeseen obstacles (no fault to them) and they were quick to propose solutions to work around any issue encountered. I can honestly say that I have never worked with a better construction company. They have the highest level of integrity and stand behind their work 100%. I would not hesitate to hire them again for future projects or to refer them to friends or family. My outdoor area feels like my own personal oasis. Thank you Alderwood Landscaping!

We used Alderwood to completely redo our front & back yard. We had no idea what we wanted but Tim designed a beautiful yard that we love. He took the time to talk about what things we liked & things we did not. He was very patient with us while we figured out what we liked & didn't. The team that installed everything was very professional & Nick the foreman was a delight to work with. He was very conscientious about everything. The only drawback is that they are not cheap, but I guess you get what you pay for. I would highly recommend them.

For more than 30 years our company has had the honor of being a premier supplier of landscape materials for Alderwood Landscape. During those years we have had many opportunities to observe all aspects of the Alderwood customer satisfaction process and would highly recommend their services. From design to installation, Alderwood clients can expect a personalized outdoor living space, enhancing by their own unique life style preferences accompanied by the artful eye of Alderwood designer.

Over the last 15 years my professional involvement with Alderwood Landscaping as brought me to the conclusion that they are one of the Inland Northwest's most premier landscape architecture and construction companies. Their team of talented landscape architects incorporate the vision of the client with out-of-the-box thinking, professional experience, creativity and beautiful design to bring your project to life. Alderwood designs amazing outdoor spaces that include high-end kitchens, covered pergolas and patios, fire pits and gas fireplaces, water features, beautiful flowers, night lighting and more. Alderwood takes "craftsmanship" and "attention to detail" seriously from the design phase through construction and beyond. Alderwood incorporates natural elements into many of its designs that make you feel like you are sitting in your own backyard retreat or mountain oasis. I have seen first hand many Alderwood projects that include breathtaking water features, bubbling brooks, large ponds and cascading waterfalls. The professional construction crews at Alderwood specialize in creating custom water features that will make you wonder if they were really man made. The sound from a waterfall in your backyard is like nothing else! As you drive up to any Alderwood project you will see how they incorporate the look and feel of your current architecture, paint colors, scale and textures into every element they design into the project including the driveway pavers, stone colors and plant textures. The staff at Alderwood listen to your needs, budget requirements and dreams while incorporating the best high-end residential and commercial landscape design available. Alderwood is the landscape architecture company that you must call for your next landscaping project. Go to their website and take a look at their amazing work.

We moved to a new construction home that did not have any backyard landscaping on the lot, so my wife and I went to the Spokane Home Show and came across the impressive Alderwood booth/display, and hired them to design the yard so that that we could get the basics this year, and then add on additional elements over the next few years so we could keep everything within budget. We were very impressed with the blueprint Kris drew out for us, and we hired Alderwood's team to complete the 'year 1' phase of the blueprint, and everything has exceeded our expectations. There have been a few issues with the grass seeding and hydration cycles due to our sandy hillside soil (and probably the extreme heat we had earlier this summer), and the team has been quick to reply and come back to the house on several occasions to touch things up for no additional cost. They're very friendly and professional, and I look forward to working with them on our next phase.

Alderwood is a wonderful company to work with. They are masters at creating incredible outdoor living spaces. They provide excellent service and only use high quality materials!

We have consistently worked with Alderwood Landscaping since 2009 and their team has been an absolute pleasure to work with. They are professional, creative, responsive, and passionate about what they do and it shows in every project. We have worked with multiple landscape companies over the last 16 years and most get the average job done. However, there is a big difference in the attention to detail, overcoming challenges and the overall client experience that we see. This is where Alderwood sets the bar in the landscaping business.

To the point...they exceeded expectations. From start to finish...from design to completed project, their owner Mike, remained totally involved, satisfying our every request. The working crew, led by Seth, was fun-loving, detailed oriented, conscientious and efficient. This project was in conjunction with a major home remodel, and the visible value and enjoyment that has come as the result of our water feature and expanded patio area including a fire pit, have greatly enhanced our home value and our stay-at-home enjoyment. We are proud to have photos of our project currently showing on both the Alderwood home page as well as that of Houzz. We do and will continue recommending Alderwood Landscaping to our friends and acquaintances.

We have nothing but good things to say about the the most important aspects - our backyard looks amazing, was done on time, and came in on budget. We have received effusive compliments from everybody who has seen our back yard. Tim, our architect, showed a lot of patience working with us to tune the design to meet our budget and work with some existing constraints in our yard. The end result was a picture-perfect space that we will enjoy for years to come. Dann, the project manager, was good to work with and responsive to our questions. He was happy to perform collaborative installations of some products we had bought ourselves. Joe, who was the point man on for the crew, was awesome to work with. He was very customer service oriented and went out of his way to make us happy. Nick and Jose were also great and did everything they could to meet our schedule, including a dedicated clean-up job. Alderwood quickly resolved any issues that arose and any requests we had during installation. The only aspect that could have been better was communication about the actual project schedule (what days they were doing which parts of the work) ahead of time. Overall, Alderwood did a great job and we would highly recommend them to anybody looking to beautify their yard.

Alderwood is a great company to collaborate with as they are well organized,detailed and thorough with their clients. I worked with them on a recent project to construct a new deck ,arbor and fence. There was good communication with myself and the homeowner.It was a pleasure to work with them. Jeff Echaniz

Alderwood is the best. I was referred to Alderwood initially because they performed the original front-yard landscaping at my house for my builder. Therefore, after buying the house I talked to them about finishing the backyard. They came up with a design plan that could be implemented in stages and the results were fantastic. They basically turned what could best be described as a gravel pit to a green, comfortable space for my family. As our needs have changed and our family grown, we've had them back to add features like a fire pit, play set, and so on. Their designs look like something out of a magazine and they will work with you to get the most out of your budget. I highly suggest them, you cannot ask for better.

I had Alderwood and two other reputable companies visit with me on-site to discuss our brick paver patio project. Aldwerwood made our “idea” come to life on paper, thanks to their architect, Kris Kohn. From start to finish Kris, Dann, Seth and the crew were prompt, professional, and overall fantastic to work with. I’m amazed at the final outcome, the patio fits perfectly with our outdoor setting and sets the standard for customized outdoor living space. Thanks guys, look forward to working with you again.

I had contacted 3 landscape architecture firms late last year and quickly decided to go with Alderwood. Our project began in late January this year and was finished end of February. This company is unbelievable. Everyone from the owner/designer to all the staff members were great - professional, knowledgeable, hardworking, efficient, prompt, responsive, courteous, friendly, and easy to work with. The project was completed on schedule even though the weather was not cooperating. When the project was finally done, the end result was amazing. It totally transformed our backyard. Everyone including family members, friends and neighbors were totally impressed. Of course, our family was excited and extremely happy. Alderwood also did a great follow-up visit and replaced a couple of plants that were not growing as well. In all, to me, this is total satisfaction.

Great company and great people! Can see your vision then make it come true with more then you ever imagined. Call several companies before calling Alderwood, should have called them first.

We absolutely loved working with the Alderwood Landscaping team. We were beyond pleased with the finished product and thoroughly impressed by the professionalism of the crew and project manager. No detail was overlooked, nor considered too minor when mentioned. We have proudly recommended them to our friends and neighbors and there is no doubt we will work with them on our next project.

I have a small backyard and high expectations for the space. I hired Alderwood Landscape because I knew first hand of their reputation as my previous neighbor had contracted with them and the results were amazing. The results for me were equally amazing. We needed to include a hot tub, water feature, a space for a fire pit and fencing not to mention removing an existing deck. The entire process took only two weeks thanks to the hard work of the entire crew from the architect to the foreman to the actual workers. Everyone was professional, courteous and exact in their workmanship. I couldn't be happier with the flawless results!

We hired Alderwood Landscape to redesign and relandscape our yard, take out our concrete driveway and install a paver driveway. The entire team was a pleasure to work with, always concerned that we were happy with the process and the final product. Our project was a big undertaking and there were hicups, but the crew was great at troubleshooting and working with us. We are excited to see our new plants in bloom and the driveway is not not only better from a functional standpoint, but a beautiful improvement.
