We’ve been using Lee’s for several years now and they are absolutely amazing to work with! When we first started looking g they were the most reasonably priced as well as compelling reviews. We have them do 2-3 major clean ups a year and each time they finish we are always left impressed. We have also had them remove some bushes and grind some stumps, as well as other projects which they did a wonderful job on.I would highly recommend using them for all of your lawn care needs and projects!

They were very responsive, offered competitive bids, and did high quality work. I appreciated the communication and the timelines for our project. Would hire again and highly recommend this company!

The quality of the work was excellent, and I'm happy with the results.The team showed up on time, and everything went smoothly. Overall, the service was good, and the work was well done. Just a word of advice to people with pets —double-check your gates after the job is finished to ensure everything is secure.

We have had Lee's General Lanscaping come to our property twice- once to fix a busted water pipe and recently to do a massive yard clean up. Both times their experts were friendly, professional, hard-working and kept in good communication with us throughout their time in the yard. They did a bang up job with our rather large front and back yards and double checked before leaving that we were totally satisfied. A great service and we will continue to use them.

We tried to do the responsible thing and get multiple quotes for the work in our postage stamp backyard. But most of the landscapers and contractors we contacted wanted nothing to do with such a small job. Mr. Lee not only sent someone out right away, but when we had more questions he came out himself to answer them.He asked a lot of questions to make sure he understood our (OK, my wife's) vision for the space, then provided several helpful suggestions. His estimates and invoices were clear and easy to understand, and he responded promptly to any questions or concerns. When his team showed up to start the work, they also had some great ideas from other yards they have worked on.The work took a week, during which everyone involved was helpful and friendly. When the work was done, his team made sure we were completely happy before they packed up their equipment, and Mr. Lee called to make sure we were happy before sending the final invoice.The work is exceptional quality, and they even fixed several issues I was just prepared to deal with due to the odd shape of our yard. 11/10, I will definitely call on Mr. Lee again when we need more yard work!

Replaced backyard lawn with dog friendly artificial turf a year ago. Incredible install, great drainage with the snow and rain. Love how it looks a year later. Lee did additional landscaping and stone placement on the side of the house. Very professional, highly recommend Lee and his crew.

Your yard deserves to be a place of beauty and functionality, but sometimes it takes a professional touch to bring it all together. At Lee’s General Landscaping, we specialize in comprehensive landscaping projects, from plant removal and sod installation to custom retaining walls. A recent inquiry from an Issaquah homeowner highlights the kind of transformations we can achieve.

Customer Query: Revamping a Yard for a Fresh Look

“I need assistance with several landscaping tasks: removing old plants and their roots, transplanting existing plants to different areas, removing the current sod, installing new sod, and building a stone retaining wall to define and stabilize part of the yard.”

Our Recommendations for Issaquah Homeowners

1. Plant Removal and Transplanting

Clearing plants and roots requires expertise to avoid regrowth and to prepare the area for new landscaping elements. We recommend:

Root Removal: Complete extraction ensures the area is ready for sod installation or other uses.
Transplanting Tips: With careful preparation, your healthy plants can be relocated to thrive in new areas of your yard.

2. Sod Removal and Installation

A lush, even lawn starts with the right foundation. For Issaquah’s mild but damp climate, we recommend:

Sod Removal: Clearing old sod allows us to prepare the soil for optimal turf growth.
New Sod Installation: We use high-quality sod suited to the Pacific Northwest, ensuring durability and vibrancy year-round.
Pro Tip: Proper watering and maintenance after installation are key to a seamless, healthy lawn.

3. Stone Retaining Wall

Retaining walls are both functional and aesthetic. For this project, we suggest:

Material Selection: Natural stone blends beautifully with Issaquah’s scenic surroundings.
Durable Design: Our retaining walls are built to withstand erosion and rainfall common to the area.
Customization: Add curves or tiers for visual appeal and to create usable space in sloped yards.
