  Flagstone sidepath installed with 1/2 inch max gaps. Excellent stone cutting and placement work. Martin was our first contact and provided the estimate- very personable and knowledgeable. Eddy (and his brother Emilio) were the stone cutting and placement experts. The results were excellent and admired by all neighbors. Only hiccup was that the had underestimated the time it would take to do the precise cutting and placement. Was worth paying the extra amount they charged for this. I would highly recommend them.

  The team did a great job leveling out my pavers that had sunk. See before and after. They worked professionally and communicated clearly. I would definitely hire them again.

  We hired Lee's General Landscaping to do a total yard cleanup + clear a bunch of plants and invasive species from our perimeter, then add medium bark to suppress regrowth. Our assigned estimator Kimball came by for the initial walk through on July 3rd. We walked the property and I pointed out areas that we wanted cleared and bark added to suppress new growth. He left us with a video of him walking the property and shortly thereafter we had an estimate. My wife and I reviewed it, and wanted to see what it would cost to add landscaping fabric and rocks to some of the areas on the initial estimate. I responded to Kimball and he asked for a Google image of the home with the areas we wanted the work done marked. I then sent him the requested materials via a color coded aerial image. Kimball then asked to come out for a second look to make sure his measurements were correct. I was unable to accompany him for that walk, but he did do the checkup. We had a second open ended estimate shortly thereafter showing what the added rocks and fabric would run per square yard. We then decided on just doing bark (simplest install) - no landscaping fabric or rocks, but in all of the same areas marked on the aerial photo. To be safe I sent Kimball a 2nd aerial photo via email with the areas we wanted bark marked & explained. Kimball's final estimate included a breakdown of what 4 yards, 6 yards, 8 yards or 10 yards bark would cost to procure and install. He told me that they would start at 6 yards with our property per his assessment, and if more were needed, they would request the additional amount day of the job. 7/25/26. The day of the job. Lee's arrived, I walked the grounds with the foreman and they got to work. Late in the day, I got a call from Kimball saying that the 6 cubic yards of bark he'd ordered wasn't enough to cover everything and that they needed another 2 cubic yards to the tune of several hundred dollars to complete all areas we wanted covered. I agreed to the up charge and Lee's crew completed the job. About 10 days went by, and the bark beds began to sprout weeds all over the place. Naturally, I was expecting to see obvious weed growth here and there pop up, but this seemed like a lot. Regardless, I got to work pulling the weeds every 3-4 days or so, and added some more bagged bark I purchased from Carpenitos as I tackled each section of the yard on various days. Then, they exploded. By the 6th week, we were overrun and I couldn't keep up. I did some checking, and found that for successful weed suppression, you need at least 3-4 inches of bark coverage to prevent regrowth Lee's quote stated they lay down "at least 2-3 inches" of bark - not the gold standard 3-4 inches, but adequate. So, I got out there with a yardstick and started measuring. Low and behold, most of the front and back yard had as little as 1/2 an inch to 1.5 inches bark coverage. The areas I'd hit with bags as I weeded were barely pushing 2 inches, which means they too were initially VERY thin. I then photo'd the explosion of overgrowth and sent it to Lee's general email with a concerned message attached. Kimball replied to the message, but he refused to acknowledge any error had been made on his part or Lees in terms of the estimated coverage vs. completed work. Ultimately, he refused to remedy the situation without charging us thousands of dollars more. We went back and forth and he would not budge - not even to cover labor only to rake back, and remove the overgrowth. He also refused to connect me to a senior manager or owner - eg: a 3rd party in the company whom could objectively review the situation, stating that he was a manager and partial owner and in charge of our estimate. We were charged over $3200.00 after tax for the job. It will likely cost us thousands of additional dollars to fix this. I'm personally kinda shocked considering their reputation and long standing place in the community. We used their services for lawn mowing and occasional yard work in Seattle many years ago without issue. My how times have changed.

  I had Lee’s remove my existing grass and 4 overgrown bushes and replace them with a river rock/mulch yard with various plants. I also had a new gate built. The result was exactly what I was wanting and the price was fair. The crew was exceptionally nice and wanted to make sure I was happy with their work. One of them saw I was trying to walk with a broken foot and held out his arm for me. I would highly recommend Lee’s and I will definitely use them again for any future landscaping needs.

  Everyone on this team has been so great to work with! From the sprinkler group to the weekly gardening crew, and shout out to Martin who came out multiple times for the quote, super communicative, friendly, and clearly knows their stuff. They make the whole thing really easy and stress-free. Definitely recommending them to my friends!
