We retained Landwork Enterprises on two separate occasions. We initially hired Landwork Enterprises in 2004 to re-landscape our front yard (in Bellevue). We were delighted with the result and, so, we hired Landwork Enterprises again in 2006 to re-landscape our backyard. We are very happy with the result of that project as well.
We have enthusiastically recommended Landwork Enterprises to many of our friends and family and provided positive references when contacted.. My sister retained Landwork Enterprises in 2005 to completely re-landscape her front and back yards in Seattle. She, too, was happy with the results and has provided positive references.
Our relationship with Landwork Enterprises began in 2004 when we first met with the company’s owner, Ryan Kolodejchuk. At that point, we had already interviewed several landscaping contractors concerning our front yard. We were becoming very disheartened about our project – few of these contractors seemed interested in doing the full scope of work we wanted and no one had suggestions for solving some significant challenges posed by existing concrete, mature trees, etc. Ryan immediately saw the potential in our yard and had ready suggestions for problems we had identified. Importantly, he was able to take our vision to the next level and provide us with a result much better than we had imagined. Even now, nearly four years after the project, people stop by to compliment us on our yard. The scope of the front yard project included: exterior lighting, sprinkler system, new driveway, new patio and front steps, granite bolders, and plantings.
Before hiring Landwork Enterprises for our first project in 2004, we drove to sites of at least 6 projects Ryan had completed for other clients. We were very impressed with what we saw. Even more important, these clients raved about Ryan’s work. We spoke extensively with two clients who provided detailed information of project scopes, budgets, and first-hand observations regarding Ryan’s skill and professionalism. One individual, like us, initially hired Landwork Enterprises to address one part of his yard and was so happy with the work that he retained them to do the rest of his yard. He had documented all of the work by Landwork with photos and showed us all that Ryan had done for him.
All of the work Ryan performed for us was completed on time and at the budget we had agreed on. Ryan, though not on site during much of the work, remained available by phone and made periodic visits to the project to ensure his satisfaction and ours. His crew is hardworking and polite; we observed that many of the crew that worked on our job in 2004 were back in 2006. We were also impressed with the quality and capacity of Landwork Enterprises equipment – they had what was needed to complete the job efficiently. When unexpected issues came up, they were professionally and appropriately addressed. We continue to maintain a cordial relationship with Ryan/Landwork Enterprises and call on them periodically when questions or servicing issues arise.
On both projects that Ryan did for us, we monitored the progress of the work on a daily basis and worked with him and his crew if circumstances required any course-correction. Fortunately, one of us was at home while these two projects were underway and, so, we could ensure that we got what we wanted.
