Reviews of local pros in Olympia, Washington

Working with Apex was wonderful. Jason produced a gorgeous landscape design after our consultation. His crew cut down trees, removed an enormous fire pit and prepped the sight with new soil before creating a show-stopping backyard. Lights, irrigation, a dry steam bed, boulders, pavers, flagstone and dozens of well-chosen PNW plantings. Part of the garden was dedicated to raised beds. I am more than delighted. His crew was also super - professional, knowledgeable and friendly. Jason stopped by frequently.

Jason and his team are very professional, respectful about a customer's time and property and do great work in a short amount of time. I have had Apex do several things for me so far and every time I'm very pleased with the communication, the work and the pride Jason and his employees have in their work. Will definitely be using them again for future projects.

We have hired Jason Cornell and Apex for multiple jobs in recent years, everything from lawn installation to the creation of stone steps and walkways, to advice and installation of plants that will be more resilient in these increasing dry summers. We can't say enough about how much we have appreciated Jason's expertise, his involving us in landscape decisions, and his friendly and super-efficient crews! We are particularly grateful that he could correct mistakes in our stonework/bluestone terrace made by a previous landscaper; the result was both safer and way prettier. Overall, we think the entire Apex team, from office staff to installers/garden crew is efficient, affordable, productive, and just an overall pleasure to work with.

Jason and his crew created a beautiful backyard oasis for us! The crew was super friendly and professional. Jason responded quickly to emails/questions and, although the timeline was longer than expected, kept us informed/updated. Appreciate Jason and team's enthusiasm for the project, and willingness to be creative. Work was great quality! Would recommend Apex!

From start to finish this company was so much fun to work with! Jason was patient with me throughout the design process and provided creative solutions to help make the space exactly how I envisioned it. The entire Apex team was professional, on time and worked hard to get the job done right. They take pride in their work and were all highly skilled in what they were doing. The transformation of my property is incredible. I couldn't be happier with the finished result. Having Jason mange the entire project took a lot of worry and stress off of me. Especially if I couldn't be there every day to see the work being done. He was on top of it! I highly recommend Apex!

Jason and Anthony and their crew are hardworking, make suggestions yet listen to what you want, and go beyond what is expected. This is the second time I've used them and will do so again if needing more landscaping done in the future.

During March of this year (2019), my wife and I hired Jason Cornell and
his firm, Apex Landscaping Solutions to design and landscape our backyard.

Jason worked closely with us during the design phase and he showed us plans and an estimate for the proposed work. He and his team brought in top soil, built an anthracite retaining wall, added bluestone pavers and
installed a 740 pound natural stone "bubbler" fountain, complete with accent lighting and an underwater pump for the pond and associated river rock and stones.

Jason provided complete plans and planting lists to our HOA, and quickly
obtained approval for the work.

Jason and his crew were very professional and diligent about dust control, cleanning up debris, and keeping construction noise to a minimum. At every design decision point (lighting, electrical, fountain plumbing, and the addition of a bamboo privacy plant), Jason clearly outlined our options and the associated costs to us. We were given a wide range of plant choices and Jason's expertise on which plants would do well in our yard, and where to plant them (in terms of sunlight, shade, and moisture) has helped the greenery to thrive. A one year warranty on the plants was included and we were trained on how best to care for them. Jason has made several followup visits to check on our new plants growth and health.

Needless to say we are thrilled (as are the yellow finches and the hummingbirds) with our new backyard!

We highly recommend Jason Cornell and Apex Landscaping Solutions.

Apex designed and completed a landscape project for us over the Summer of 2025. From start finish everything was professional with outstanding results. The project included removing existing landscape materials, adding irrigation, lighting, a water feature as well as designing and installing flagstone walk ways and patio and the recommended plants and shrubs. They also installed an under deck ceiling. We found the difference with Apex compared to other landscape companies was their education, knowledge and attention to detail. We have used other landscape companies and those attributes were no where near what Apex delivered. We look forward to the next project with Apex. Jason and his crew are true masters!

What a great experience I had with Apex Landscaping. They took my bare, sloped, corner lot and created a beautiful, functional yard!
Working with Jason on the design was a delight. He was thoughtful and thorough: patient with all my questions and made the whole design process easy. And all the work that head landscaper Juan and his team did was on point. Any questions or issues that arose were quickly addressed and resolved. Thank you Apex!

Working with Apex Landscaping was one of those rare experiences where the end result is even better than you hoped for.

Jason didn’t just design a yard. He took the time to understand how we live and how we use our space, then created a design we never would have considered that turned out to be exactly right for us.

His crew was fantastic. Meticulous, communicative, and clearly committed to doing the job right.

They truly hit it out of the park. We’re excited to keep working with Apex on other parts of our property and would recommend them without hesitation.

John and his team have cared for our pond now for 7 years. Great service and good communication When we had an emergency they were here after 5 in the dark getting it solved. Thanks much.

Nature Perfect Pond Services does a great job on the water features they installed in our landscape. They are always friendly and happy to answer our questions or concerns.

I had a great experience with Nature Perfect Landscaping and Design for a few work projects. They are very professional, and great at what they do. They do everything they can to ensure we are happy with their products and service.

Working with Nature Perfect was the best experience I have ever had working with a landscape designer. Landen Moore is extremely responsive and listenied carefully to my ideas and suggestions. But most of all he is a creative, hard-working, generous, and imaginative designer. I cannot imagine anyone ever being disappointed with a garden created by Nature Perfect.

Staff are friendly and helpful. Nature Perfect put in a putting green and water feature for me in 2016. They now continue to come out quarterly to help me maintain my water feature. I am thinking about hiring them again to do some more landscaping.

It was a pleasure working with Nature Perfect! Our designer, Laureen, was great at going back and forth with us to work out the design and plant selection to suit our needs. The installers did a professional job, and the company was quick to respond and create a solution for us when heavy rain caused some erosion.

Nature Perfect transformed my small back yard into another living area! Kenny, the project manager, helped me figure out what I wanted and came up with a great, simple, clean design. They took apart the old, broken flagstone patio, removed a tree, and removed an old tiki type BBQ pit. They leveled out the yard and installed a beautiful stone patio, giving me a lot more useable space, while still incorporating my rock walls and established plants. They created a great edging that blends into to rest of my yard. A few weeks later, the rain came, creating an unexpected “water feature”. They proactively solved that issue, leaving me with a delightful area to enjoy the morning sun, as well as entertain guests on summer evenings.

I highly recommend! Nature Perfect services has been an enjoyable experience, especially working with their service technician, Brett. Very professional and caring, paying attention to every detail. We had a pond clean out with plant removal. In addition to the normal accumulation of sludge that settles at the pond bottom, Brett removed fish waste that was underneath the sludge from three koi we had several years ago and he also found a kong toy that our 7 year old golden retriever had when she was a puppy! This is impressive since other pond companies cleaning our pond missed the fish waste and Willow's puppy toy!

They came to clean my pond and seal up my skimmer and big waterfall.

They did good work, no mess left behind, wouldnt even have known they were there other than the leaks stopped :)

I will use again. Fair prices as well.

They are wonderful. I have a Koi pond, Jeff and Carri really have gone out of their way to help with any issue I may have. Great selection of products and will help you with picking the right product for your needs.

Nature perfect worked with our budget and gave us manageable options. They fit us into their schedule to beat the inclement weather to complete our project. The work was well done and completed on time.
