Home Services reviews in Tacoma, Washington

Several in my family have worked with Father Nature and I can attest that they do incredible work. We had Sue create a plan for our 1/3 acre back yard and we found that she listened to our vision and brought it to life with a great degree of creativity. The details of the plan were so helpful and as we carry out the work, it looks stunning. I have also worked with Chris and he is super kind and very helpful. He worked to get our sprinkler system up and running and gave us some great advice on our watering schedule (at no charge!). We will continue to utilize Father Nature and we have referred several neighbors to them as well.

The Father Nature team recently replaced our retaining wall. They removed our decades-old railroad ties and replaced them with a beautiful stone that matches other parts of our yard. From our initial conversation, they took our abstract ideas for the space and gave us a detailed drawing that perfectly matched our aesthetic! Everyone that we have worked with on the team has been knowledgeable, insightful, and professional. The small crew of 2-3 working on-site only took a week to do all of the work and it turned out great! We are looking forward to working with them further on our dream backyard.

Update: years later, we are experiencing the long term impacts of some design oversights and installation practices. Most troubling, the project may have compromised the health of mature trees we'd intended to keep as the central feature of our yard. (5 stars reduced to 3, for long term results).

I compared costs then went with Father Nature at a slightly higher price point because something felt right about my early interactions with Chris and Laureen. I am very happy that I made that decision. Amanda made the contract and financial details feel easy to deal with. Joe, Miguel, and the entire installation crew has just been fantastic to work with on site. Wonderful design concepts, executed with a strong attention to detail, and a team of professionals dedicated to the satisfaction of the customer. This is not your local mom-and-pop outfit. This is an extremely well-equipped contractor that conducts business at a very high level.

We live on a slightly larger property with established bushes, trees, ivy and blackberries - typical Pacific northwest. Our last 2 yard services were good, but unable to keep up with the overgrowth. Father Nature did a fantastic job, in only 3 days, and at a very competitive price. Mayra listened to what we asked for, and the crew was quick, professional, and very considerate of us and our old dog. They communicated with us at every step, they did not make assumptions, but asked us specific questions about certain plants they were working on. We are extremely pleased with their work ethic and the result. Our goal is to keep them as maintenance. Thank you!

This company is great! We have used them for both a backyard makeover, lawn maintenance and on-going repair work. They are responsive, friendly, cooperative and produce high quality work. 10/10 would recommend for someone that values quality.

We had a great experience with Father Nature. They removed an old 2 level deck and defunct hot tub and replaced them with a beautiful one level, cedar deck with new railings and stairs. Their attention to detail and their commitment to getting it right are amazing. It was an absolute pleasure to work with Chris and Jose from our first meeting to discuss the project to the final details of construction.

We live near the Father Nature office and id seen the trucks over the years advertising their services. We are getting ready to sell our home and immediately thought of them. I contacted them through their website to get a quote and someone called me back. Cameron was scheduled to come out and write up a quote for me, he called to confirm, showed up on time, was very personable, took a long time to make sure I understood their processes, measured everything, then gave me his card and said I’d get a quote back on Monday. A couple of weeks went by and crickets. I called the office, she said she’d give him my message, and nothing. I e sailed him and guess what? Nothing, such a disappointment and horrible customer service. What a waste of time.

I’m in the process now of working with this company to create a plant plan. Initially I had a good experience when walking through my property and discussing ideas. The plant plan missed the mark in many, many ways. Trying to contact the original designer has been very, very difficult. There are many changes that need to be made but I get no response through email. I feel like they did not listen to what I wanted or needed. Much left to be desired, will need to contact the manager at this point. Would not recommend.

We are loving our front yard landscape. Communications with Chris, Isaibel and Alonso made for an easy process. The team kept to their project scope of work, budget and timeline. They were very tidy on completion of this project. I would recommend Father Nature Landscapes to all my friends.

Father Nature carried out a landscape revamp for our tired 1960's yard almost 10 years ago. It has been a joy to come home and see a "put together" plan thanks to Sue Goetz's advising and Chris Sheer's installation, to have a beautiful view outside every season of the year, and to have attractive "functional" areas too.

Now this year we needed help planting a row of arborvitae after taking out trees with "issues" on a property line. Sergio and Luciano came and made prompt work of the job. They were so pleasant, gave informed answers to my questions, included us in the placement decisions, and were careful not to damage surrounding plantings.

Luciano and Sergio were professionals who weren't "putting in time" but pro's who were proud of their work. I loved that THEY liked their jobs, doing a service that beautifies and helps their customers -- with such cheerful attitudes. I would employ their services again in a minute. Now I am headed out to water these new trees - to make sure I do my part to ensure the success of Father Nature's work. Thanks Sergio and Luciano!

Father Nature Landscapes has been wonderful! They designed a beautiful healthy creative look for my property. Chris and the members of his team have been responsive to any questions I have had, and have maintained everything so well, it looks like it was just landscaped. I am so proud of their beautiful work and dependable maintenance crew. I highly recommend this company and their services. They have creative ideas, and listen closely to the vision you have for your property.

The Father Nature crew did a wonderful job on our tiered retaining walls! They responded quickly to questions and made changes to the design as needed. They were always kind, professional, and communicated well. They were also respectful of our neighbors and kept the site clean. I would hire them again!

I had a fabulous experience with Father Nature from beginning to the end of our project. We were blown away with all of the materials, precision, and dedication to hardscape our backyard. I am a Realtor, and I will recommend Father Nature to all of my clients looking for landscaping/design. Isaibel, our project manager was especially a star. She was attentive and kept things moving to the end.

We used Father Nature to do a complete overhaul of our yard: design, take down of existing trees, patio, fire pit, the works. They were flat out amazing. Our yard looks fantastic and two of our neighbors already want to use them. Cameron and his team were reliable, on time, and worked diligently to complete the project. Father Nature is also trustworthy and dependable, which is hard to find in these days. I would recommend Father Nature to anyone and we look forward to continuing to work with them to maintain our new and beautiful yard!

We had an absolutely great experience working with Chris and Isaibel at Father Nature! They were extremely professional, clear, and did beautiful work installing turf, retention walls, and railing in our backyard. They really took care of our space, and were very friendly. Would definitely work with them again.

Excellent work. They did a great job installing my sprinkler system and grass. Quality staff. They worked quickly and efficiently and were on time and on budget.

I have been a client of Father Nature Landscapes for many years - first for landscape design and improvements and then for maintenance. I have always found them easy to talk to, responsive to questions and concerns and consistently fairly priced. The maintenance crews are efficient and respectful of our property and it is easy to coordinate for extra services such as aerating, mulching and additional hardscaping (as separate projects). I would recommend using Father Nature for maintenance AND for landscaping projects.

This is our 2nd project with Father Nature. From the initial discussion through the design and cost decisions, Chris was awesome. The time from signing the contract to getting the project started was relatively short and once the project started, the crew worked hard and efficiently to complete the project. Alonso and his crew were careful and thorough, paying attention to details and keeping the finished look in mind. They are definitely artists in their trade. We are exceptionally happy with the way things turned out and exceptionally satisfied with Father Nature. Highly Recommend

Chris and his crew did a fantastic job installing a brand new hog wire fence, irrigation system, privacy plants, and other plantings that we requested. The crew was: 1) always on time 2) cleaned up the job site when done 3) showed up when they said they would for this multiple day job 4) were polite and hard working, and 5) basically did everything that they said they would with flawless execution. Reliability and excellence are hard to find nowadays, and I'm extremely pleased with the result. Would highly recommend.

We have used Father Nature twice now and they have been great both times. They provide clear documentation, good communication, and follow up to make sure the details were done correctly

We chose Father Nature based on a referral from a friend and couldn't be happier with their services. From the initial consult with Chris, to Carl and his crew taking on our project, they got our irrigation system changes all taken care of with expertise and professionalism. They gave a thorough walk-thru of work completed, did a great job of cleaning up our property after the job, and also gave helpful tips on yearly lawn maintenance. Thanks, Father Nature!
