Kevin Monahan, owner, is a great communicator with both homeowners and his teams. The team took our ideas and transformed them into a wonderful design and implemented these seamlessly. Avalon's crews and project managers are also very strong in these areas. A joy to work with. The follow up with this company is outstanding. We look forward to having them back on site soon. The schedule that Kevin presented to us was exactly what happened... no surprises. Crew is made up of intelligent, prompt, hard working, nice people who get the job done and really enjoy what they are doing. It really shows. We look forward to having them back on site for Phase 2 (back and side yards) very soon. We believe that the expense was completely in line with the amount of work, level of expertise and final outcome of the project. We continually have neighbors and people just driving by, stop and comment on the work that Avalon has done. As a discerning home owner, it was a very positive experience. We highly recommend this company for all services.
Description of Work: Avalon NW completed a major renovation of our front yard and driveway area adding retaining walls, lawn, plants, trees, metal edging, driveway pavers, brick work, new sidewalk and in lawn sprinkler system installation. There was a lot of attention to details in regrading and transition between areas to consider. The plan was well thought out and executed.

They were very nice but their estimate was very high, so I didn't not choose them. It took them a very long time to send me the quote; I had to bug them for it. When they came out, the owner was very pleasant but I had to nag him to get the quote. They were not responsive.
Description of Work: I got a quote from Avalon Northwest Landscape, LLC for paving the front porch area and a patio in the back.

They were prompt in responding which isn't always common with landscapers.
Description of Work: Interviewed them for landscaping.
A very surreal process (but in a good way)! Kevin, the front guy, is very personable and is able to listen to you and ascertain who you are very quckly. This project meant a lot to me and it's hard to gauge what you'll get because landscaping your yard isn't something you do more than once in a lifetime (unless you're made of money of course). But I really liked their website and took the chance that if I could get something like what they portrayed there, man, would I be lucky! It worked!!! Wow! They know what they're doing and stand behind it. They sure can work well with stone pavers and rocks in general. Was very very happy with their work. It was so much fun to come home every day and see the changes. And now a couple years out, as the plants are growing, I'm still smiling because I have a beautiful yard. Every time I'm outside, people walking or driving by say "hey, I really like your front yard." With Avalon, you'e given a detailed estimate up front and barring any changes you may make, that's it. Kevin told me he stands behind whatever they did and by god, he means it, which is quite reassuring. They take pride in their work and if you're not happy, they're not (and I'm sure their standards are higher than mine). Am saving my $$ now to pay them to do my back yard to create my own little paradise for my retirement years. Can you find someone cheaper to do the work? No doubt you can, but I would highly recommend Avalon for peace of mind. I didn't feel like they were from the hurry up, get the job done and skeedaddle tribe of landscapers. They're just nice hardworking guys with integrity--what a concept! And the smile factor is huge--priceless!
Description of Work: Complete demo of front and side yards, including removal of about a foot of clay dirt, new soil, installation of paver sidewalks, gravel paths, stone steps, replacement of existing stones to create a better planting area, creation of a defined raised planting area with big stones, flagstone patio, plant trees, shrubs, construction of gate/fence

They were great. They were on time, and they cleaned up really well. They were under budget and did some additional things that we hadn't asked them to do because they had the time.
Description of Work: They re-landscaped our backyard including a patio, and regrading, etc.

Kevin and his crew were professional, efficient and a joy to work with. While both projects were fairly expensive, we were happy to pay the cost, since both the process and results were so satisfying. Kevin had great design ideas and was very receptive to incorporating both existing plants and others we wanted. He patiently listened to our ideas, answered our questions and understood our desire for a low-maintenance yard. We would highly recommend him and his crew.
Description of Work: Avalon Northwest landscaped our medium-sized backyard and we were so happy with the results, we hired them back to do our smaller front yard. In the backyard, they worked closely with us to come up with a landscape plan, including irrigation system, large brick patio/sport court, wood deck, large flowerbeds and vegetable planting boxes. The front yard landscaping consisted of flowers beds with an irrigation system, new walkway, parking strip rocks and plantings and garbage/recycling enclosure.

I WORKED WITH KEVIN FROM AVALON, WHO DID THE DESIGN AND MANAGED THE PROJECT FROM START TO FINISH. I WOULD WHOLE HEARTEDLY RECOMMEND AVALON TO ANYONE. KEVIN WAS ALWAYS ON TIME FOR SCHEDULED MEETINGS AND WAS AVAILABLE AT ALL TIMES DURING THE DESIGN AND INSTALLATION VIA HIS CELL PHONE TO ANSWER ANY QUESTIONS OR CONCERNS I HAD. THE DESIGN AND INSTALLATION WERE BEAUTIFUL AND ARE HIGH QUALITY. I GET COMPLIMENTS ON MY YARD ALL THE TIME. AVALON'S ESTIMATE WAS MORE THAN OTHER BIDS ON THE PROJECT I GOT, BUT I BELIEVE IT WAS MONEY WELL SPENT.
Description of Work: I HAD AVALON DESIGN AND INSTALL A LANDSCAPE IN MY SMALL, URBAN BACK YARD. THE WORK INCLUDED FULL DESIGN, DEMOLITION AND REMOVAL OF AN OLD DECK, REPAIR OF A WOOD FENCE, INSTALLATION OF A STONE PATIO, PLANTING, AND A SPRINKLER SYSTEM.
