Landscaping reviews in Salem, Oregon

We're very pleased that we chose Greenway to do our landscaping. Besides having a quote that was fair, they were here the day after we signed the contract. A large crew came to add soil, level the ground, seed it with grass and put in the irrigation. They did it all in a day and a half with city inspectors signing off on their hookup also. We can't be more pleased with the final outcome. The crew was polite, hard working and professional. We would certainly use them again!

Mike and his Greenway Scapes team did an excellent job with the replacement and installation of my front lawn sod and additional sprinkler heads. Mike listened to my requests and was very responsive to all forms of communication. Email, text and phone calls. When I shared my concerns about some of the negative reviews, they called right away to answer my questions but did not pressure me to make a decision. That gave me the confidence to try them out and I am very glad that I did. The lawn looks terrific and they even came out and adjusted my sprinkler heads and reprogrammed my system to optimize the watering schedule- explaining to me the whole time what needed to be done. The entire job was done from estimate to completion within 30 days.

I am so please with the incredible services from Greenway! This last week I had multiple services- yard clean up, sprinkler system installation, bark dust and started weekly yard maintenance! I am so please will all the work that was done. My yard has been a beast of weeds that was just too big for me to manage. Greenway scheduled the estimate, Mike Perez was on time for appointment, estimates arrived ahead of schedule. Once I determined services & returned signed contracts, they began work ahead of estimated start date. All workers were very polite, asked questions to make sure that everything was done to my liking! The clean up was amazing! I highly recommend their services!

Also- I got the WiFi option for my sprinkler & can set schedules & control zones from my phone- I love it! So user friendly! I really recommend this option if you are looking at a new sprinkler system, you won’t regret it!

Mike came by multiple times during the various projects to monitor to progress and make sure I was happy with the work. I also received phone calls to set up service appointments, the day before a service started to let me know about start times! I was very please with the customer service!

Lastly, value- I found their rates extremely reasonable & competitive with others landscaping companies! I will say though that my mom had work done a couple of years ago with another local company and struggled to get sprinkler system working properly & still needs work done. Both of us were so impressed with the quality & efficiency of Greenways work!

So where to start...We hired Greenway on a recommendation. Initially their service was okay. Then they started skimping on the landscaping and not trimming things and leaving weeds and other things. We called and asked them to do a complete service when they come. After the first month passed we began to notice a decrease in quality. Then today we come home and find a person in our fenced backyard from the City of Salem spray painting markings everywhere saying they were requested by Greenway to mark for a sprinkler system. We never have asked for a sprinkler system. We called the city and they said they were dispatched by Greenway for this locating service. We called Greenway and asked why they would do that without our permission and with no notification. When given the run around we asked to cancel our service and that we were very dissatisfied with the way things had been handled. Instead of apologizing or trying to make things right, the owner of the company, "Mike", called and told us we needed to be "better humans" and that he would put a lien on our property for the remaining bill of $80 dollars and get lawyers involved if we didn't pay. So to sum up, Greenway placed an order from the City of Salem to come onto our property and mark it all up, without any permission or notification, we came home to a stranger in our yard which could have resulted in someone getting hurt as our dog could have been in the back yard, and then when we complained we get threatened with lawyers and liens. Seems like a great business model to me. I can't recommend their service in any way and their customer service, well, judge for yourself.

Rude, and maybe not competent.
Some years ago, this company did work for my neighbor but dug at least 2 feet past our property line damaging the roots of my trees. An arborist saw the damage and recommended the trees be removed because Greenway made them into hazards for falling. The supervisor on site was rude, and we requested to speak to the owners but never received a call back. This cost thousands.

Since the person who hires this company is responsible for the damage they cause I would say avoid them to protect yourself, so you don't have to deal with their insurance company.

Greenway Scapes was fantastic to work with, from start to finish! Excellent landscape work, beautiful design, hard working crew, great communication throughout the entire project. They went above and beyond on their final clean-up, leaving the site better than when they arrived. Would highly recommend Greenway Scapes.

Greenway provided one of the cleanest, well done landscaping jobs that I’ve ever seen. As a home builder, landscaping is one of the last items finished that can make or break a job. Mike with Greenway was responsive, professional and answered all my questions. I would highly recommend Greenway.

I bought a house that already had the design plans for the backyard. I called Greenway and Mike got those plans from the developer. Mike gave me an estimate, and I texted him with new photos of what my backyard nightmare currently looked like, and Mike gave me a new estimate, which was more than reasonable for what they had to accomplish. The crew came on time; they were professional, meticulous attention to every detail, and easy to work with from start to finish.

My new home in Dallas was landscaped and irrigation installed by Greenway. They did an awesome job on the sod , plants , trees and irrigation install. Mike was so prompt and professional to work with. Keep up the great work guys. Thanks again.

Greenway installed a sprinkler system as insurance against wild fires. System works great and is almost invisible. The work was done quickly and clean-up was complete - yard looks better than it did before! Mike Perez is friendly, knowledgeable, and easy to work with. Five stars!!

Mike and the Greenway team are wonderful to work with. We've used them for all our new home construction landscaping for years and they do a great job. They are timely, very responsive, and create beautiful designs for us. We're extremely pleased with our working relationship.

We have hired Greenway Scapes a number of times and have always been very satisfied with their work. Recently they built a set of steps into a hillside for us; the final result exceeded our expectations! Their crew are the hardest working fellows, and they are very polite and professional. I no longer bother getting other bids because I know that I will always be pleased with their work!

I won’t recommend this company! Our warranty was not honored by the owner Mike and now we are literally left with a sinking patio and 1/2 inch gaps between pavers. Quotes are 20k+ to fix their work by 2 other companies. Full removal and reinstall necessary to remedy the workmanship.

We've used Greenway Scapes for our landscape service for more than three years. They do a fabulous job. They always show up promptly for work, are very professional and respectful. I recommend them all the time.

Recently had Greenway Scapes do a complete backyard remodel including retaining, grading, backfill, patio prep, hardscapes, sprinkler system, sod and a firepit area. Got their name from my GC who recently finished my home remodel and does a lot of new construction, he said they're the only company he uses for landscaping.

Let me tell you these guys know what they're doing when it comes to landscaping. I have a fairly large backyard and it was very uneven, lets just say I was overwhelmed on how to do it, but wanted it to look nice.

They gave me a 3D design in color and the backyard turned out EXACTLY like the design I approved. Once they got started they didn't twiddle their thumbs either, they showed up with a fleet of their own dump trucks, trailers, heavy equipment, gravel, everything... and got to work! They were done in less than 2 weeks from start to finish and there was a large retaining wall plus a LOT of material to move in my backyard.

The employees working at my house were very respectful. Everyday, when they were done for the day, they cleaned up very neatly around my driveway(even using a blower) and anywhere they were moving back and forth with heavy equipment/materials.

I am very happy with the constant communication and service I received. The finished product is beautiful. I cannot speak to their maintenance plans as I have not used them for that(yet), however, I would HIGHLY recommend this company to anyone doing a large landscaping project.

I have used Greenway for a couple of different projects. They work has bee excellent and ensure the job is done completely and to your satisfaction. I would highly recommend them to friends and family to use and will certainly use them again myself.

We hired Greenway a couple of years ago to put in a large stone patio. We were so pleased with the excellent masonry job that we recently hired them again to add a stone planter. They also installed an irrigation system in the grassy area of the backyard. We are extremely satisfied and the beautiful patio has received so many compliments from guests. We enjoy it every day, year round. We highly recommend Greenway for quality, value, and professionalism! The photos show Before and After. Any negative reviews seem questionable and were not our experience at all. They did a fantastic job on time and we’re a pleasure to work with!

I needed to get the job done as soon as possible and they came with a 8-10people crew to get the work done! They were quick and their job was really good! We are extremely happy with all the work, trees, grass, the swale with rock, everything they did and design for our project! We recommend them 100%, the crew lead and all the worker were super professional.

Thank you!

Greenway Scapes has been incredible!! I have used them multiple times over the past 6 years to complete sections of my property. They are prompt in their responses, the employees take great pride in making things absolutely perfect, and they always go above and beyond the project I paid for. The stone work is amazing! I am constantly getting compliments from neighbors and people who pass our house. If you want a great looking yard for a great price and high quality work, choose Greenway!

Greenway did a fantastic job on our front yard. We had a custom home built, but decided not to add the landscaping at the time due to our tight construction budget. So, after the house was built, we went back to our builder for a landscaper recommendation. With no hesitation, right away we were told to use Greenway. Mike took the time to understand our plans for the yard and our design vision. He came back in no time with a design plan we were happy with. We were also dealing with a timeline issue. I needed to get this yard done quickly. Pedro and the crew came out the following week and worked all day. Got the job done in ONE day. Pedro was so flexible when it came to getting the right plants in the ground as I made a last minute change. His crew went out and bought the plant I wanted and showed me different verities as well. I’m so happy with how the yard turned out! Thank you Greenway!!!!
