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!

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.

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.

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.
