Pool Landscaping Services in Shelton, WA

“If you are familiar with residential developments known for stacking as many homes as possible onto a small parcel of land... this review is for you. Downsizing landed us in one of those developments. Located at the bottom of a hill with three homes looking directly onto our patio, we had absolutely no privacy. Ken, our landscape designer from Room to Grow, changed our yard from a rectangle piece of grass into a stunning sanctuary of privacy. Ken's resourcefulness proved invaluable as he managed sub-contractors and post-pandemic glitches in availability of materials. He committed to a timeline, and stuck to it. By weaving together several gardens, placing strategic screens which provided the necessary focal points, he was able to design gardens with year-round interest, color, movement and texture throughout. It is beautiful! Room to Grow has proven to be trustworthy, dependable and creative. I have recommended them to our family and friends. Such a stellar business!”

“True Scape Design landscaped four sides of our yard for us. They installed low maintenance perennials, like key Lime Cora Bells, wooly thyme, Japanese holly, slender Hinoki cypress, full moon maple,a Hydrangea, daylily and many more. They took out the grass along our driveway and put in blue, and grey stones of different sizes and worked with the rocks already on property. They created bluestone pathways for us. They installed a Roman paver patio and also graded a hill and installed beautiful risers so we can walk off the new extended composite deck and walk down the risers to a peaceful and beautiful patio. Our experience through all this considerable work was confidence in True Scape Design and the owner Joseph Garel. He takes responsibility for his team. They are friendly, aim to please and do a terrific job in an organized way. They are thorough and take individual responsibility to do an excellent job. Everyone works well together. True Scape Design worked with us on choices and design to get what we wanted. When we did not know right away, we were given lots of time and options to consider, for instance in picking out pavers and type of deck material. We felt they really understood what we wanted. The estimates were accurate and bills accurately itemized. There were so many options for spending less in some areas and more in others. The crew went above and beyond to be thorough, fixing a big dip in the grass in the front yard. They were glad to change a ground cover I did not like. They listened to us. My husband and I are thrilled and enjoying our new deck and patio, front and side yards. We appreciate the professionalism, competence, and integrity of True Scape Design and its owner, Joseph Garel . Lynn and Rick Keat”

“The service provided by Malone's Landscaping was just what we were looking for. Jim came out the day after I called to take measurements and sketch some ideas. His office created plans off of the ideas I had presented and was back to me within the week with drawings. They started the project under John's watchful eye, with Jim always checking to give final approval. The project took a little longer then anticipated due to weather through the winter but, was completed in time for a great party for everyone to enjoy. I get so many complements on our space now that everyone wants to take a picture of it. We have enjoyed many football games and family events with our new fireplace and seating area! Thank you Malone's!”

“The initial project was to have a French drain installed to remove excess water from my property. I met with several contractors, some before and some after my appointment with Chris Sheer from Father Nature. Once I met Chris, I realized he set the benchmark for the other contractors to meet or exceed. I was very impressed by Chris for several reasons: he stood out as a knowledgeable professional who provided me with the information I need to make an informed decision; he was very thorough and prompt in responding to my questions about the installation process and material selection; and he always showed up on time for every appointment. I was so pleased with the customer service and quality of work I received from Chris and his team that I increased my initial project from installing a French drain to include a large patio extension, an extensive seating wall, and a flagstone walkway. If you have the pleasure of working with Chris and his team, you will find incredible customer service and quality workmanship. I can only describe it as the “Nordstrom Experience” for your landscape.”

“I hired Kim as my landscape architect after interviewing several other landscape architects and she stood out for two reasons. First she clearly had an eye for design and second she really knew what she was doing. In fact throughout the entire project I was able to witness Kim's amazing ability to be able to stay true to her sense of design and what would work and wouldn't in certain places while also being able to take into consideration my particular taste as a homeowner. Not only was my garden beautiful at the time of the project completion but its beauty has become even more evident over time. For example the plantings are filling in nicely and the trees and plants that were chosen to attract birds have done just that. As a result I am enjoying listening to the sound of birds singing over listening to the sound of traffic which is all I seemed to be able to hear before. I have also been able to enjoy my garden throughout the year as Kim carefully selected plantings that would allow me to have a beautiful garden (both front and back) during all seasons and that is exactly what happened. Many times this past year I thought about how thankful I was that I chose Kim to do the work. I have received and continue to receive many compliments as well. Thank you Kim for doing such an amazing job!”

“Mark initially presented several design ideas nicely suited for our relatively small yard. We arrived at a final design through a collaborative approach where Mark listened to our aesthetic and functional preferences, and successfully incorporated them into the plan. Our small yard presented some unique challenges that Mark was able to help us navigate through. We would describe Mark as being easy to work with, very talented, and professional in his approach. We are very pleased with the final results of our project.”

“Firecracker is great. Naomi has done work in our yard twice and both times have been beyond our expectations. She even put up with our crazy dogs.”

“I have worked with Jeff for more than a dozen years. He has designed commercial and residential projects for me, including my own house. His designs are innovative, charming and work with the available budget. Recently, he has been designing landscapes with native plants that require less water and maintenance. Jeff and his firm do a good job.”

“Land2C designed a rather intricate patio and path design for our garden carefully considering and taking advantage of the existing structures. It was intricate and turned out very well. We get positive comments on it all the time. They also provided and installed the plantings. They spent considerable time with us in planning the entire project, customizing it to our specific needs. Detailed plans were provide all along the way, with the plants and their locations in the garden and instructions for their care. The graphics were clear and easy to use. The garden continues to fulfill our expectations and draws favorable comments from our friends. They come highly recommended.”

“In 2010 I thought I needed a moat/ril but after digging and lining, it wasn't really coming together. I was given Plantswoman Design's number by someone I consulted with for the liner problem. At my first consultation I told her if my idea was just too harebrained to say so and I would fill it in, but luckily she liked the idea! It was a two year process, as I couldn't mentally handle the entire project at once. It is now 2 years post-planting and the garden looks fantastic. My backyard is my view and it is amazing 12 months of the year.”
