Avalon Northwest Landscape, LLC

Can’t say enough good things about working with Avalon Northwest and the results—the backyard of our dreams—speak for themselves. Not a week goes by when someone walking by doesn’t stop to tell us how much they love our garden., Kevin, Jeremy, and Fraser were attentive to every detail, endlessly collaborative, thoughtful, deeply knowledgeable, and a pleasure to interact with during the planning process and the 6 weeks they spent on site at our home. They worked with us and our landscape designer to problem solve at every stage of the process, and we were blown away by their creativity, ingenuity, and just how beautiful their work is. The goal for our project was to create a space that was both beautiful and supportive of local wildlife as well as to carve out a flat, turf-covered area on our heavily shaded, sloped lot for our children to run and play sports. Kevin’s experience and advice were extremely helpful in making it all come together seamlessly.

Bravo, Avalon! Kevin and his team did an absolutely awe-inspiring job transforming our challenging entry and garden space into a verdant retreat equally enjoyable whether passing through, sitting for a while, or entertaining a crowd. With impressive skill, good nature, and a passion for detail they worked consistently (even through snow and sleet as it turned out), removing existing hardscaping and installing new ipe decking, bluestone entry steps and patio, raised beds, a fountain, and custom stonework to beautifully execute each detail of landscape architect Lisa Port/BanyonTree Design Studio's fabulous custom design. Throughout, Kevin kept us apprised of any issues, actively problem-solved, and stayed within budget. Avalon's professionalism and customer service from bid to follow up on plant installation was excellent. We've enjoyed our new outdoor spaces for several years now and are thrilled at our good fortune to have had this team. Highly recommend.

Beautiful work, very transparent (and accurate) pricing quotes and updates throughout the project. Timely completion as well. A pleasure to work with!

Avalon NW spent 2 1/2 months at our house replacing two large decks (removal, new concrete footings, new posts and joists, and Trex) and removing concrete walkways and a patio and replacing them with quartzite stone. They also moved and replanted a 5' tall Japanese maple and another large shrub. Kevin worked with us from the beginning, explaining what would be done and making sure the patio and walkways followed the outline we had in mind. He built stone steps and a basalt retaining wall alongside one stairway. The crew were extremely knowledgeable and competent, handling all aspects of the landscape project professionally and capably and leaving the property clean every day. They answered our questions with remarkable patience. The crew were also very considerate and accommodating to our needs to access the house and carport when the work obstructed our entryways. In the 35+ years we have owned our house, this company is one of the best contractors we have ever had work here. We recommend them without hesitation.

I cannot speak highly enough of Avalon Northwest! They installed a large stone patio for me on a difficult piece of ground (a slope between my house and garage), and I am thrilled with the result. Communication with both management and workers was prompt, clear and helpful, at every stage of the process from design to completion. As for construction, it was a pleasure to watch such outstanding craftsmen at work. They were meticulous, too, in protecting my plants where the garden abuts on the patio. Overall I was thoroughly impressed with their skill, professionalism, and courtesy. Avalon has my highest recommendation.

We loved working with Avalon northwest Fantastic Team, and wonderful follow through. Lots of laughs and smiles and a job well done. Recommend them to all and will continue to work with them in the future.

We had an outstanding experience working with Avalon NW, and I would recommend them without hesitation. They completed a hardscaping and landscaping project that involved our entire exterior space including building a custom 50 foot raw steel retaining wall that Kevin designed. Every aspect of the process - planning, implementation, and follow-up - was handled with professionalism, clear communication and attention to detail. Kevin is deeply knowledgeable, highly responsive and a pleasure to work with. Similarly, Kevin’s on-site team - Jeremy and Fraser - are exceptionally skilled and experienced at hardscape and landscape demo and installation. They worked hard each day, and were always clear in communicating next steps or responding to our questions. Genuinely, they were pleasure to have around. We waited a year to work with Avalon NW and the outcome was absolutely worth the wait!

This company is not only professional, communicative, on time and on budget, they are also a pleasure to work with. We genuinely enjoyed getting to know them and their work is stellar. I can recommend them with no reservation and look forward to having another project so we can someday work with them again!

We've had Avalon complete several large projects for us in recent years and they totally hit it out of the park each time. We love their craftsmanship, attention to detail, communication, and focus on client satisfaction. The crew was very creative at solving problems, seemed to just get stuff done no matter what we threw at them, and the end products look amazing. We constantly have passers by complimenting our front yard, and our friends and family can't spend enough time in the backyard with BBQ, patio, and hot tub. These guys are the best!

Kevin and the Avalon NW team are a rare find. We hired them to do a complete rebuild of our front, back, and side yards with custom stonework, pergola, etc. Their work and craftsmanship are top notch but the experience of working with Avalon goes well beyond the visual results. Kevin is the most transparent contractor I've ever worked with and the whole experience was shockingly stress-free. From the first conversation we had with him, throughout project prep, and finishing tweaks, he did exactly what he said he would do, on time and on budget. He was happy to entertain all of our questions and helped steer us through the trade-offs when we needed to make a few changes to the original plan. This spring he showed up unannounced to check to see how everything was faring and fixed several minor issues that cropped up during the winter. We love our new yard and cannot recommend Kevin, Jeremy, and Fraser highly enough.

We had a wonderful experience using Avalon NW from the first time I walked up to "some guy at his truck" (turned out to be Jeremy) over a year prior to ask about their services as they were finishing up a neighbor's beautiful landscaping job - Jeremy was so friendly and personable and chatted a bit and gave me their card. From planning to finish Kevin was the consummate professional, filled with really great ideas, is highly specific and detailed, and is a fantastic communicator. We always knew exactly where things stood from both a timeline and budget perspective. This also extended to his crew and how he treats them - he is just a quality human, they all are. During the actual construction it was primarily Jeremy and Fraser who were there putting in the hours and they were so terrific to work with. When it came to implementing some design elements (deck shape, or privacy fencing for example) they would start and then knock on the door and check in to give us an opportunity to view and make any possible changes before the point of no return. They did hardscaping, landscaping, sprinkler system and lighting. I cannot recommend Avalon NW highly enough.

Avalon NW is truly superb. We had them do a complete remodel of our outside. The work included the demo of an old porch, removal and replacement of old rotting columns supporting our roof, installment of a steel retaining wall, tree removal, rebuilding the front porch, adding a deck to an ancient garage, fencing, installing irrigation, installing turf and sod, rock work, planting, and installing outdoor lighting. The work was very high quality, the communication throughout the project was tremendous, and potentially the best part of it all, the team was a joy to have around. Having Avalon NW in our yard daily for 4-months was an unexpected joy. Kevin and his team of Jeremy and Fraser are the nicest, most skilled, hardest working, and most accommodating humans you could ever find. We were sad to see them go while being overjoyed to have the yard so wonderful when complete. We cannot recommend a team more!
