Landscaping reviews in Kent, Washington

Great Crew! They will treat your yard as if it was theirs 😁

These guys are great. I like the work they do on my lawn, and recently clearing away some trees and shrubs. They're thorough and considerate, and very reasonable. I like knowing I'm supporting their program, too.

This was the second time we have used then. They arrived on time, VERY professional and knowledgeable, I had a list of what we wanted and they reviewed it with me then went to work. They went to work quickly and did a wonderful job. We are retired and on a fixed income. Their attitude seemed to be "this is the way we would want our grandparents home to look" Thanks again and we WILL call again

We are on contract with John Volken Academy Lawn Service and I couldn't be happier with their work. The crew that does our lawn is very professional, friendly and quick. I highly recommend them for all you lawn care needs.

I had a rather large job at one of my listings and the lawn care team at John Volken Academy far exceeded my expectations. They were extremely professional and went above and beyond for me and my client. It was such a pleasure working with these guys and I highly recommend their services! A+++

They spend hours driving their very loud mowers in circles, leaving mud spots and trash all over the lawn.

Please quit blocking the roadways and parking in no parking zones when there is available parking on the street close by in an area not restricted. I've asked your drivers to move, they don't. When they come back they make the road unpassable in larger vehicles.

Friendly environment and down to earth people

What a joke they don’t take on anymore customers because they are full.... how about expanding then

No answer and mailbox full at the number provided. Please correct this issue.

They must be too busy. They never called me back to set up appointment to come give an estimate.

VERY POOR SUPERFICIAL MAINTENANCE, HURRY UP AND QUIT EARLY, WALK RIGHT BY AREAS THAT NEED MAINTENANCE , WITHOUT DOING ANYTHING, EVEN AFTER REQUEST FORMS HAVE BEEN PRESENTED NOTHING WAS DONE. THEY ARE A RIP OFF THEY DO NOT FULFILL WHAT IS IN THE CONTRACT THEY SIGN.

Total lack of respect for other people's property on the site were they're working. I agree with Andre A.'s comments and review below. I'm staying away from this business at all costs.

Very Unprofessional Service. They dont do half the work. Mows are Horrendous! We're a small 14 unit complex. Anyone looking for a nice place to take care of?
Help!!

They use illegal gas powered blowers in the city of Seattle. Use electric please

This is unacceptable! Your employees are extremely horrible and don't care about people's personal property. I drive a White car and park in my employer's lot . Only to find it destroyed by gunk and leaves and no longer white . How is it you think it's ok to do this to anyone, let alone people who work hard to have what they have. And yes I do know it was you guys do to my cameras on my vehicle!

This company is not worth a penny. They blow debris back into your lawn, all over your vehicle, onto the porch and patio.... Blocked driveways, clumps of grass left on lawn..... Avoid even an inquiry into these people's work it is not worth a penny. I'd love to give a zero star

A NLS landscaping crew parked in front of my driveway, blocking me entirely from leaving, then proceeded to walk away from their vehicles while the engines were still running. I went out to my car to leave for an appointment and found my driveway blocked by two NLS trucks. I spent the next five minutes wandering around trying to find the crew, so I could ask them to move, but they had wandered so far away, I could not find them. When the crew manager finally shows up, she was offended that I might be upset that my driveway was blocked by vehicles. I was forced to cancel and reschedule an important appointment because of all of this. To top things off, the NLS crew left potentially hazardous metal debris in the middle of a residential street before moving blithely onward.

Not sure what kind of product this company delivers, but their treatment of third-party neighbors is rude, inconsiderate, and self-absorbed. Apparently, NLS upper management is lax because they do not train their field people properly. DO NOT USE.

My community has NLS contracted. I have had multiple issues with this company not mowing my backyard, even with dog pooped cleaned up and toys put away. The grass will be completely cleared and they do not mow. A few weeks ago, they had skipped mowing our yard, saw me get home, and go into my backyard to mow. They also left my gate open, and I luckily saw before I let my dog into my backyard. I have talked to the property manager about this. I am paying for services I don’t receive, even when my grass is picked up. This has been an ongoing issue since our community contracted NLS a few months ago.

I don't understand why residential communities hire this company. They are for commercial properties because they have no respect for the people living in the places they landscape. They started today at 7:55 am. Just to get passed the 8 am quiet time. They do no cleanup after they whack. Multiple windows have been broken because they are so lazy they don't do an inspection before they mow. Their mowers were going at top speed, not cutting anything. They do not pay attention to the other landscaping around, like bushes and trees that need pruning. I'm am disappointed that my apartment complex changed to this company. No respect.
