Home Services reviews in Renton, Washington

The commercial division was unprofessional and rude. Had a bad interaction with Dado

Great service & results! Very pleased with yard work! Highly recommend!

Loved the website. Don't even know why I went there but was surprised by how simple the site was and how much it kept me wanting more without making me want to close the window.

Eddie and Rob, plus staff, completed a excellent job. Communication was excellent.

A bit pricey for the work performed. The thatching, aerating and cutting was thorough, the fertilizing, top dressing with sand/soil mix and overseeding was not nearly as thorough.

They called and set up the appointment to look at the property and discuss what we would like to have done. Said they would email with details and that was now three weeks ago and still nothing.

Update, the email had gone to my junk folder. They sent it back in March :-/

Just witnessed these guys run the most solid red light on 108th Ave. to save two seconds. They don’t care about your safety just your money.

The office and landscaping personnel at Uyeta Landscape, Design, and Maintenance are top notch. Prompt, well executed, and completely cleaned-up work makes Uyeta my go to yard maintenance team. All Uyeta personnel are friendly, professional, and know their stuff.

They did a great job building a rockery and flagstone patio for us! Would definitely recommend them.

The work they did was adequate and the two workers worked hard when they were there but when I got the bill they WAY overcharged. They started by charging $60 per person per hour when all they were doing was digging out existing plants. It didn't take a rocket scientist to do the work and then it turned out that they also charge the same rate for DRIVING to my house. I resent being charged $120 per hour for the workers to be driving. My landscape designer got their rate reduced to $45 per hour but they still insisted on charging for the driving. All in all a VERY expensive experience for what I got! They also charged a $100 dump fee which is fair enough, but that should cover the time for the drivers. I don't know any other service that actually charges for driving time. Would never use them again!

My Mom lives next door to Uyeta landscape company in a senior living home. A member of the family that owns the home passed away due to complications from Covid 19. My mom and I decided to go to the landscape company to see if they could possibly sell us a plant/tree/bush in memory. We spoke to Christian, explained or dilemma of my mom not being able to shop around during this time. Christian said they didn't have much on hand being that they only ordered what was needed for jobs but was happy to show us what he had. His knowledge was vast and matched his kindness when he not only wouldn't take our money for a lovely Acuba plant but then also carried it back to my Moms for us. This kind act brought tears to my mom's eyes and showed us a beautiful example of compassion and kindness during these difficult times. Thank you Uyeta and Christian!

I want to write a review to warn people away from this company for any landscaping services. My experience is that they will give you a price to do a number of things, say 8 things, then they will do 3 of them and send you a bill for the entire price of what they said they would do the 8 things for. GET A DETAILED QUOTE FROM THEM IN WRITING. Also, like other reviewers, it is a smoke and mirrors game with them. They will just put compost over everything and say they cleaned and weeded your garden, but the compost settles and you then see the weeds and all of the other stuff they should have cleaned up. Sorry Uyeta. Bad company.

Uyeta Landscaping is a refreshing reminder of what amazing customer service looks like. On a hot, sunny day in Seattle, my hopes of getting someone out to check a potential leak in my sprinkler system seemed impossible: every place I called was going to take weeks to get on the schedule. Enter Uyeta's. From the front desk person that took my call to the field engineer that showed up just hours later (REPEAT: HOURS NOT WEEKS), every single step of my experience was like a cool drink on a hot day - so refreshing! The field engineer quickly diagnosed the issue and was amazing to work with. I never thought this day would end with a smile but that's exactly what happened thanks to Uyeta's. THANK YOU! You guys rock!

Crew showed up on time and installed the path and stairs I requested. I liked the improvements they made and they worked with me so I could keep the price within my budget. If I had it to do over I would have worked with them to get all the path and stairs installed with pavers rather than partly with gravel which can be messy.

Success at last! Uyeta Landscape volunteered to design and landscape around our Buddhist monastery in Queen Anne, Seattle. The front corner of the building is flanked by a huge Ponderosa pine tree under which nothing will grow and drops debris making the yard messy. The designer, Kennan, and the crew solved the problem by created a dry-creek bed of river stone that beautified the area instantly. They applied a deep brown shredded mulch that blends in with the pine needles and cones, bringing out the charm of the dry-creek and the architecture of the building.

Not only was I impressed by the diligence and knowledge of the crew, but with their friendliness and ease in discussing the design and adjusting to the likes and dislikes of the residents: which plants to keep or to discard, how to care for the rose garden, and planting ground cover later.

The crew also shared a parcel of their “prize” fertilizer with us.

Kind regards,
Residents of Gold Summit Sagely Monastery

Where to begin.....On June 25th we had our yard completely cleaned up, weeds pulled, and some of the hedges trees and bushes trimmed. When I asked that company to do maintenance they said that they only mow lawns and do clean ups. I reached out to several landscape companies but most were fly by night companies that I just didn't trust. I finally bit the bullet and hired Uyeta. Uyeta showed up on August 14th and charged me $900 to do another clean up. The contract said "Provide all labor and equipment to perform front and back yard clean up. Prune shrubs as needed, clean beds of weeds, weed whack ditch by street, mow and edge lawn". When I got home I found that they had not pruned any shrubs so I called and Oscar said that my shrubs would take a long time to shape back into the way they should look. He said that each time they come out, they will prune them a little more and by next year they would look much better. I said fine. At some point I told him the service was expensive ($500/mo year round) so I expected my yard to look like a golf course. He agreed to reduce the bill to $500 (just to mow and edge my lawn and pull 6 weeks of weeds). They were scheduled to come back on August 26th.

August 26th comes. Uyeta didn't show up or even call. I texted Oscar and he said that because I told him the service was expensive, he cancelled my contract. I told him that yes, it is expensive but I didn't want to cancel the contract. He told me the soonest they could come back was September 6th. I said fine.

September 6th comes and Uyeta came, mowed the lawn, weed wacked the ditch bank. The contract I signed covered mowing, edging and blowing, lawn fertilizer, spring summer, and fall clean ups (charged extra for this to begin with), weed control in beds and turf (including manual removal and weed killer), and maintenance of the trees, shrubs, and hedges. Again I called Oscar and he said he told me it would take a year to reshape the bushes. I asked how long it would take to pull the weeds? Or to remove the dead limb from my tree. He said that "they have many clients and he can only spend so much time on my property. There wasn't time to do anything besides mow and edge the lawn and ditch bank (which had just been done 3 weeks ago)." I told him that I don't care how many clients he has, we have a contract and he was not doing what we agreed to. He started yelling at me saying that I don't pay him, he works for someone else (WTF?). I hung up.

So I call the office and try to tell them what is going on and they just keep saying they'll have Oscar call me. I keep telling them that I don't want to work with him anymore because he' s not even making sense. (i.e. he can't pull the weeds or fertilize the lawn because it will take a year to reshape the bushes?) I gave the company the option to think about how they want to deal with this and....guess what, the next day I get an email from Oscar saying that they are company with core values and that I should respect HIM!!!! This is after they breached the contract, refused to do as they promised, and then he started yelling at me.

Now I have to hire a PROFESSIONAL landscaper who is going to charge me yet another clean up fee.

I met with Laura and initially thought it was going to be great experience, but when I started asking about specifics she told me I should find someone else to work with. She wanted us to shell out $20k with no real idea what we were paying for. I asked to talk to her on the phone about it and she never responded. I wasted several weeks waiting for her to prepare a sketch which wasn't very detailed and then she dumps us like a hot potato leaving us with no one to work with at the height of the season when no one else is available. Very frustrating and now we can't find anyone who isn't booked. The companies she referred me to aren't taking new clients or don't work in my area.

Simply put: As good as it gets. Uyeta landscape was helpful BEFORE the project started with superb advice and practical suggestions, they were great DURING the project with complete, timely, thorough work, and they were great AFTER completing the project by following up and making adjustments, though minor, that made a good project a great one. I recommend Uyeta Landscape to my friends and family both on and off the air.

Uyeta's Landscape Designer Laura turned a vision into a beautiful reality. Fantastic communication. Professional work. Awesome design delivered.
A warm welcome coming up to the front door. Plus a come explore the visual experience with joyful surprises of discovery at each turn. Cohesive design with my mature plants in new concept. Very happy. Highly recommend. A+++

We have utilized Uyeta Landscape for the last few years and have been very pleased. Over the years they've provided landscape design and installation as well as irrigation installation and maintenance, Their work is exceptional and priced fairly. Would recommend Christian and Team to anyone wanting a good landscape experience.

We contacted Uyeta for a small job correcting a gap issue that was worsened by replacing an old wood fence. They returned my call, which is more than I can say for most places when a small job is concerned. They gave us a quote, we sent in a deposit, and they got us on the schedule right away. We weren't sure what to expect - it was just bringing in some rockery rock to cover/fill gaps and prevent dirt (and our nosey dog) from falling into our neighbors yard. When we woke up that morning, they were already nearly done! We were very pleased with the work, they took their time placing the rocks and spreading/filling with dirt. It looks like part of the original rock wall. And on top of it all, they said they will be issuing a refund since the job took less time and resources than anticipated. Quality work AND honest!
