In May of 2024, we moved from a 7500 sq ft suburban lot to a 2-acre property in Woodland, WA, where our new backyard was an open field with no trees or shrubs. I excitedly envisioned a Japanese-inspired garden with strolling paths, a wildflower meadow, rain gardens, etc., and I chose Dennis 7 Dees to help make my dream a reality. My landscape designer was Lars Nielsen and he is very talented with an extensive knowledge of plants and trees. He’s wonderful to work with and was always happy to incorporate my numerous ideas and suggestions into the garden plan. He and his team produced a very detailed map to scale of my property with all the plantings, pathways, etc. included, so there were no surprises. The project foreman, Brady, was also excellent. He paid close attention to detail and didn’t cut corners during the landscape installation. He and his crew were always friendly and worked hard even during adverse weather with freezing rain or hot sunny days. And all the trees and shrubs were of excellent quality and condition. The pathways, rain gardens, raised beds, and other hardscape also looked really nice. In summary, I’m very happy with my new landscape and I highly recommend Dennis 7 Dees for all your gardening needs!

From start to finish my experience with Dennis’ 7 Dees was excellent. Lars came on-sight to discuss with me a design to finish my sloped backyard. He listened, gave me his expert advice, then he provided a design and bid that fit my budget. Then I was scheduled for 2weeks out. The crew was excellent…..very efficient. Easy to talk to. They answered my questions and consulted with me when necessary. Very knowledgeable young men. I will use Dennis’ 7 Dees in the future and would highly recommend them.

I worked with Lars from start to finish. He listened to my goals and concerns for the two long, narrow terraces and the results proved he was paying attention! Early in the process, he provided not just a LIST of plants he had in mind, but an image of each which was super helpful. From those pics, I easily spotted one plant I wasn't crazy about and he swapped it without missing a beat. His knowledge of plants - right off the top of his head - was shocking! His friendly fast team stripped, enriched, planted, irrigated, and barked the terraces in two days. TWO. DAYS. My pics aren't great but you can see the transformation was fantastic! Lars provided a care-and-feeding guide which will make the maintenance much easier and I'll feel confident following his guidance. I trust him when he tells me he is available to answer questions and offer guidance in the future since that's exactly what he has done thus far. We are super happy!

I have been a Customer of Dennis 7 Dees for 15 years. Lars Nielsen has been my landscape designer for 14 of them. We redesigned my flat weedy yard to a multi sitting area, water fall, lighting and irrigation system, I see him once or twice a year to fix plants or upgrade irrigation issue. The Pondless waterfall is legendary. It has the most beautiful sound.; everyone just stops and sits down and immediately relaxes. the neighbors can hear it in there year and love when I start it up in March to November. More importantly Lars is very creative , reliable, he knows just the rights plants for me ( low maintenance gardener) he makes sure excellent work is done and cleaned up and his workers are awesome. Please call and give him a try

We have used Dennis 7 Dees for landscape maintenance and design for many years, and have always had a 100% positive experience. Every project (and there has been a lot of them for two homes) has turned out beautifully, with great communication, professionalism, and follow through. We would highly recommend them for all maintenance and design projects, including hardscaping, irrigation and lighting.

The team at Dennis 7 Dees did a stellar job re-landscaping my property starting with Kelly who was able to understand and articulate what I envisioned to designer Michael and keep the work on schedule and on budget. Brady completely charmed my neighbors around some overgrowth through a section of fence that could have easily become a source of tension. I was also very impressed with the energy and teamwork of Tarson and Angel throughout the site prep. Then there was Willem who tied all the loose ends together and made sure the property was in pristine condition at the end of the project. Great job everyone. If you want a premium service, that is exactly what you get with Dennis 7 Dees. Five stars. I highly recommend this team to anyone in need of some curb appeal and a fresh look to their yard. Thanks again guys.

Dennis 7 Dees' did a great job on our backyard renovation. We wanted to redo our backyard so our son could practice basketball / baseball and have some room for an outdoor living space. we researched multiple landscape companies and had 5-6 bids. Justin Snodgrass worked really hard for us to get the best pricing and had the best planning ideas of how everything should fit plus a lot of suggestions. The Dennis 7 Dees' team worked very hard everyday and made sure everything was cleaned before they left for the day. We couldn't have asked for a better crew with Justin, Scott, Jose, Juan and Juan. They made sure everything fit perfectly, stayed late and went the extra mile to go above and beyond our expectations. Thank you to all the Dennis 7 Dees' team who were involved to creating our Dream Backyard! If you're thinking about renovating your backyard, I would highly recommend using Dennis 7 Dees'.

Dennis 7 Dees was amazing to work with. They were fast and efficient and did great work! Lars Nielsen made sure every want and need was taken care of.

We can t recommend Lars Nielsen enough for anything landscape related! He is the most knowledgeable person we know when it comes to plants. He helped us re-do our entire landscape (1 acre) about 10yrs ago and absolutely love how everything has filled in and blooms at different times for year found interest. I am very particular about colors/likes/dislikes and he was a joy to work with. Recently I had some plant questions and of course Lars was the first person I contacted. He took time out of his busy day to help answer several questions and make excellent suggestions. Pretty impressive customer service 10yrs later - he remembered our yard, plants he selected and even our dog. If you are looking for the best in the business, be sure to contact Lars.

I cannot say enough positive things about Dennis 7 Dees Landscaping. They installed our sprinkler system, our lawn, a water feature, our garden sprinklers and best of all redid all our landscaping. While the entire team was excellent, we found their designer Lars Nielson to be exceptional. His ability to conceptualize a design for your specific area is amazing. He also thinks holistically about your space and how it should look not just when flowers are at their prime but year round. Dennis 7 Dees may not be the least expensive in town but you will get what you pay for - a quality product with a company that stands behind their work! Definite green thumbs up from me.

I recently had the pleasure of working with Lars Nielsen from Dennis 7 Dees Landscaping, and I couldn t be happier with the results! Lars transformed my backyard and side yard into a beautiful, organized space that perfectly captures the English country jungle vibe I was dreaming of. He also spruced up my front yard with several new plants, making it look lush and inviting. Lars was professional, attentive, and truly understood my vision. He took the time to listen to my ideas and offered great suggestions that enhanced the overall design. The quality of his work is outstanding, and I can already see how the plants will grow and flourish over time. Id also like to give a shout out to the project manager, Enrique Vargas. Enrique s coordination and management skills ensured that the project ran smoothly and efficiently. He was always on top of things, making sure every detail was taken care of and that the work was done to the highest standard. His dedication and hard work were evident throughout the entire process. If you re looking for a landscaper who is dedicated, skilled, and a joy to work with, I highly recommend Lars Nielsen, Enrique Vargas, and Dennis 7 Dees Landscaping. Thank you, Lars and Enrique, for making my yard a beautiful oasis!

Prior to purchasing our lovely home, we noticed the front yard was in need of work. We talked to a number of landscaping firms and architects and once we spoke with Lars Neilson of Dennis 7 Dees Landscaping, our choice was made. He listened to our goals, named the various plants and shrubs that would work well in our yard and developed a pleasing plan that met all of our goals. We incorporated a new lawn area, plants, shrubs and boulders. Lars has a great team that prepared the ground, installed the sprinkler system, and planted the plants. His customer service did not top there. Lars did a walk thru with us and discussed the care of each plant and shrub. The front of our home is beautiful and we could not be happier. Thank you, Dennis 7 Dees Landscaping and Lars Neilson.

Lars and Shalina did excellent work on my garden. The home I purchased had established plantings that were all half dead and far too large for the space. Lars was considerate of my budget and personal tastes with his design, and of course picked appropriate plants for the space. Shalina and her team worked incredibly hard, removing the old overgrown plants, updating the irrigation, and installing the new garden. The whole team were very pleasant too, I am a very happy customer!

I want to thank Landscape Designer Lars Nielsen and the crew at Dennis 7 Dees for the fantastic job they did installing my new lawn! Lars assessed what was needed to include the addition and location of low volume sprinkler heads for complete irrigation done efficiently. Then the proper type of sod was chosen for the weather conditions here in the Northwest. There was an issue with a large number of roots in the yard that the crew irradicated completely. The ground was tilled with mulch and then a layer of top soil was applied. Finally, with great care the sod was installed. Not only was the crew professional in their work, but also polite and respectful. A very fine group of men. Everyone was a pleasure to work with. I couldnt be happier! So if youre new to the area and youre looking for a great landscaping company, forget all the rest, look no further than Dennis 7 Dees!!

I would not hesitate to have Lars Nielsen, landscape designer at Dennis 7-Dees, design or make recommendations for any landscaping needs I would have. He listened to what I wanted and what was required. He communicated effectively throughout the whole project and patiently answered all my questions, even the ones I didn t know to ask! Originally, I had a large, boring yard consisting primarily of a weedy lawn, which became a marsh when watered, due to poor drainage. Around the perimeter of the fence was a strip of dirt, weeds, 8 small bushes and 2 trees. Lars corrected the drainage problem in my yard, creatively reduced the size of my lawn, added a patio space and pathways, had a whole new sprinkler system installed for the lawn and planting beds, designed a low-maintenance perennial garden in my backyard adding 80 larger plants and 2 large trees. He incorporated the list of my favorite plants. Lars walked through with me at the end, explaining how to care for each new plant. He designed a lovely yard within my modest budget. Lars amazing team of Shellina, Joe and Tom worked tirelessly, in hot weather, to create the lovely oasis my yard has become! They stripped everything down to bare dirt, tilled in compost to improve the soil, installed the extensive sprinkler system, built a large, gravel, circular patio and pathways, extended the planting beds, planted all the plants and trees, put new sod for the new, smaller lawn, bark mulch was blown in and everything was cleaned up! All in 7 days!! They went above and beyond any expectations I had! I can t speak highly enough of their considerate friendliness, work ethic, expertise, dedication and conscientiousness. Using Lars Nielsen and Dennis 7-Dees was one of the best decisions I have made. Highly recommend him and his company.

My husband and I worked with Lars Nielsen at Dennis 7 Dees on a plan to replace our water-sucking, uninspired grass front lawn with a beautiful and thoughtfully designed mix of drought-tolerant native plants and stone elements (dry creek bed, stone path). Lars was so patient with our many questions about process, materials, design, etc. and brought a wealth of knowledge and creative ideas that both respected and expanded on our vision for the space. We went through multiple iterations of a design plan. Communication was clear, transparent, and respectful throughout the process. The yard work itself was completed quickly but thoroughly.

I had a great experience from start to finish. We had our front yard grass (mostly weeds) removed and replaced with lower maintenance plants, rocks, and bark. They also installed a drip irrigation system. Our designer, Austin, was very prompt in responding and great about going back and forth with suggestions for plants. For the actual work, they started and finished as expected. The work team was the best group of contractors weve had. They were very kind and respectful when we interacted with them. They were also very thoughtful of our property. They didnt break anything, and they cleaned up their messes. Other contractors that weve had always seem to break things and leave trash. It was a pleasant surprise to not have that problem! Overall, a very positive experience and glad to have a nicer looking yard!

My partner hired them to do landscaping for his yard, and it was a disaster. Very poor communication and lack of professionalism. The end product is an eyesore. The goal was to remove lawn and have a variety of low maintenance and native plants. A huge part of the square footage of the design was one single plant, which was then unavailable. They re terrible about returning phone calls and emails. They put very little effort into coming up with suitable plant replacements. After many months of no communication, workers showed up in the yard with 12 hours advance notice (email) and were planting them after the window of time when they would be guaranteed for survival. Unsurprisingly they perished in the heat wave that came the following week, and despite promises of getting them replaced, the yard is now mostly bare earth. Colossal disappointment. The project was started 2 years ago and the final plantings were done a year later. The project is still not technically completed because the replacement plants have never arrived. (EDITED: THANK YOU FOR YOUR PROMPT RESPONSE! I dont want to publicly shame the employee he worked with, but if youd like to investigate further, this was Proposal # 25078.)

We had a very bad experience with a contractor that left our yard in shambles. We were not going to take chances with another contractor that did not have a reputation or track record of reliability, quality, and expertise. We commissioned 7 Dees to complete our project. They provided a team of experts that kept us informed throughout the process, provided continuous feedback, recommendations, and updates. Lars Nielsen led our team and was not only responsive and proactive, but also listened to our desires and concerns and provided solutions. His expertise in botany was demonstrated via his advice of plant mixture to provide color and bloom throughout the seasons as opposed to having too many plants that bloom for a few weeks and then we would be left with little color for the remainder of the year. Lars has not only demonstrated his value as a trusted contractor, but we would now count him among our new friends.

We decided the lawn in front of our house was in serious need of help. We made an inquiry with Dennis 7Dees, and Eric Hagberg became our landscape designer. We discussed our needs and wants, and we answered Eric s questions about our goals (low maintenance, horse friendly plants, ability to enjoy sunset evenings). In short order Eric showed us a design that incorporated a wide range of plants, meandering paths and places for outdoor eating, resting, reading, and spending time with friends. We were excited to see the results. Soon Dennis 7Dees crews arrived. Every day there was amazing progress. Everyone knew their job and worked well together to produce a lovely landscape. We could not be happier to see Eric s vision translated into a beautiful front yard. We are happy. We ve had many friends and neighbors amazed at the work.

Dennis 7 Dees Landscaping is a true five star company that has been used several times over the past 19 years. From the initial large landscaping/hardscaping, irrigation and lighting done in 2004, 2007 and now in February 2023, this latest job was a refresh of the existing landscaping to bring up to date. A new LED lighting system, replaced the old Rainbird pop-up sprinklers with new drip system and hardscaping changes plus cleanout of debris around the property. Our Dennis 7 Dees designer, Lars Nielsen, put together the plan as it was envisioned by the owner and took a little over 6 days to complete. The crew foreman Brady and his group were so easy to work with and did everything we asked and more. The transition was quite awesome. Any questions we had were answered promptly by Lars and communication was always open. Thanks again to Dennis 7 Dees for refreshing the landscape of the property and it looks terrific.

March 2023 - We used 7 Dees again, this time for our front yard and driveway. The planning with Kenna and install with Scott and Juan went very smoothy, and they did a wonderful job keeping everything clean, given the amount of mud that is in our yard. I especially liked that they incorporated boulders into the design to match our retaining wall. They have also been great in finding replacement plants for what the wildlife has damaged. They can find items that are not available in local stores. December 2020 - We normally like to do our own landscaping, but after some fits and starts, we called 7 Dees for some help. They were very responsive, and our designer, Kenna, came back with a plan that was much more economical than we initially thought. The install went very smoothly and we are very pleased with the results. We look forward to working with them again soon for the front of our property.

This review is long overdue. I worked with Lars Nielsen in the summer and fall of 2022. He is very friendly, always on time, and knows what he is talking about. The main issue we worked on was the terrible drainage in my back yard. I am so happy with the result. We just finished the first winter, and not one puddle! He also designed a new paver patio, a stepping stone pathway, and redid all the irrigation. He listened to what I wanted and guided me to a very good result. I couldnt be happier. I also want to say a few words about the crew who worked on the project. Shalina, the crew leader, was amazing. She kept me informed throughout the entire process and answered all my questions.

I immediately signed the contract and they began providing services on the same day as when they do the rest of my neighborhood--literally a 15 minute job, at most. I was so pleased, I passed the word along to other neighbors and they signed up as well. Just yesterday, I was emailed by a new account manager that they were terminating my annual contract and that I would have to requote--for at least a $450 monthly minimum fee--because the account manager that originally set me up was somehow not authorized to quote me as they had. In this instance, Dennis decided that their poorly managed internal processes and controls were the customers problem, and they gave the customer--me--the boot. Big picture, strategic thought would have led them down the path of simply resolving THEIR mistake when it came time for contract renewal. Their short term resolution has created significant ill will and will ultimately cost them more business in the long run. Buyer beware--they could cancel your service, and waste your time, just as easily, without a care.

We just recently completed a large project with the team at 7 Dees, led by Justin. We are beyond satisfied and happy with our experience. From day one, the communication was quick, clear, and professional. Everything was delivered as promised. While the initial bid was more than others, you really get what you pay for, and it was worth it in every way. The on-site team showed up everyday, at the same time- which is huge in the service industry. We will continue to work with 7 Dees for any future landscape needs. Thanks team!

I worked with Austin Kelly who did a terrific job, bringing my vision for my yard to life. He started with a bare yard as we had retaining wall work done that had decimated our yard. He understood what I was looking for and came up with a plan that made sense for the space. The workers who did the actual landscaping were prompt, courteous, and neat. When problems arose, Enrique, the project manager, communicated effectively and was able to offer me solutions that worked with my yard. I had tried to work with other landscape designers who wanted to charge me almost a quarter of what my project cost just for the plans. Everyone who comes into my yard really loves it I have spent more time in my yard this summer than the previous 20 thanks to Austin and Enrique and the crew. Highly recommend!

Last Fall 7 Dees came out to completely redo our front and back yard landscaping. Kelly, our project manager/designer was friendly, informative, and helpful. The yard was asphalt, concrete, wood chips, and lawn. We had a vision and the whole team made it happen. Nathaniel, Joe & Juna are the bomb! Juna, a knowledgeable and wonderful designer, really captured what I had drawn out for this project. Nathaniel & Joe, along with the other crew members worked their butts off to transform the front and back. You all get 5 + stars! I hadnt thought out the seasons with regard to plant availability and viability for late summer/early fall. I wasnt keen with the plant offerings. In hind sight some of the plantings should have simply been done the following spring. We did work out a resolution. I would recommend that this kind of conversation should happen at the beginning of a project to set the right expectations. The hardscape is what really transformed the space. Who knew you could love a driveway. The new rock wall adds character. The 5 new trees are filling in along with the bushes. Ive added some flowers and plants throughout the season. It makes me happy and our neighbors compliment the transformation. Thanks for your hard work. Its much appreciated.

Lars was our landscape designer for redoing our entire landscape. He worked closely with us all the way through the planning process, creating and improving on the vision we had for our yard and gardens. He continued to be our contact person all the way through the execution. He intervened to make corrections with the crew when needed, and made sure everything was completed to our satisfaction. Due to delays the plants had to be installed during this years heat wave, but they are replacing the plants that failed, making good their warranty. Lars did a final walk through where we videoed him explaining the care for all the plantings. He was always friendly, positive, enthusiastic about working with us, and professional. We have had multiple slow walk-bys and neighbors complement us on the job. We are very happy with the outcome. I recommend the services they provided.

Dennis 7 Dees provided us with landscaping services 10 months ago. We appreciated the time Lars spent listening to us to understand what we wanted, and the design he created was beautiful. He communicated with us through completion. The crew worked hard to protect our yard during installation and cleaned up the area each day. We were hesitant to plant in mid-winter, but Lars assured us it would be ok. And it was! All of the plantings, including trees, shrubs, and flowers, thrived over the summer. It was evident that they used high-quality plants. A few plants did not bloom, and Lars arranged for them to be replaced under the warranty. The sprinkler and drip system provides excellent coverage. We recommend them highly.

LARS IS THE BEST!!! Our experience with Dennis 7 Dees has been the best experience highly due to our landscape designer, Lars. From our first meeting with Lars, he had already set Dennis 7 Dees apart from all the other landscape companies we had spoken with. After being misguided by a couple companies, we decided to do our own research of plants and trees that we wanted as we had specific needs and concerns for what would be planted in our yard and where. Lars was very familiar with every single plant on our list (it was an extensive list) and his ideas of where to place everything was exactly where we had envisioned placing them as well. After learning what was important to us, there were a couple of plants he suggested trading with others to better suit our needs and his alt options were even better than the ones we had chosen ourselves! We provided Lars with a budget we wanted to stick to and he managed to get us everything on our list, while staying within our budget which was far from what the other companies had quoted us. It is very clear that Dennis 7 Dees does not price gouge and provides very quality plants at very reasonable prices. It is also very clear that Lars takes pride in his work and providing his clients with their ideal outdoor living space. The landscape crew, led by Shalina, was fantastic. We have very difficult terrain and they worked very hard to have our yard completed on schedule, taking special care to make sure everything was exactly as we wanted. I am so impressed with the entire experience and could not be happier with the end result. I highly recommend Dennis 7 Dees, and highly encourage you to ask for Lars to be your designer!

Dennis 7 Dees Landscaping is the best landscape company Ive been associated with in the last 36 years...and Ive had contracts with or help from several. I have a large yard and over this last year, the landscaping was redone...a comprehensive project with many details. Over the months, Sean, my Account Manager, has always sincerely listened to my ideas and concerns when they arise, as they always will with large Projects, and he has always been responsive to my e-mails and texts and available even after hours if needed. This is so appreciated and rare. Ive never encountered such helpful and genuine service before working with other companies. Every person who has worked on the Project or who does the regular monthly maintenance has willingly accommodated changes Ive asked for with a gracious spirit. Everyones attitude has been to do their best work possible to make sure Im pleased with the results. Im a fairly new client...just wish I had started working with 7 Dees years ago but certainly grateful I do now. The company is a little more expensive than others Ive worked with but completely worth the extra expense for the excellent client care and work done.

Lars Nielsen was the project manager for our front yard landscape project and Shelena and her crew did the work to remove our old landscape plants and bushes, plant the new ones, install bark dust, and install a dry creek bed feature with boulders and river gravel. Lars was really good at listening to what we wanted and then using his years of experience and plant knowledge to create a landscape plan and individual plant choices that will have ongoing seasonal color and foliage changes throughout the year. They also updated and replaced major components of our sprinkler system. The river bed and boulders look natural and add a lot of interest and texture to our all landscape (no lawn) sloping front yard. We just couldnt be happier with how it turned out! Lars was a good communicator and stayed in touch throughout the project which they completed in four long work days. Shelena and her crew were hard workers, very responsive to our needs and thoughts, and were pleasant work with. They worked together like a well oiled machine. I was amazed at how quickly and carefully they worked. Clean up everyday was great too. Because Dennis7Dees handled every part of the project themselves, all the trucks, boulders, gravel, plants, and bark dust were all there right when they needed them which made the work move right along smoothly. Having them handle all of that in house is a great advantage. We are so glad we had Lars planning our landscaping project with us. His knowledge and experience was invaluable. We will definitely use Dennis7Dees for any future work we need. A great experience from beginning to end. Thank you Lars, Shelena and crew. Dale Wotring

We worked with Eric Hagberg for our yard landscape design as well as benefiting from his overall project management during the Spring of 2023. Our project included significant removal and replacement of sodded grass, new irrigation along with the addition of multiple and varied plantings. During the planning and design phase, Eric was very helpful, professional, prompt, and easy to talk with. He provided expert suggestions and guidance in plant selection and willingly accepted all of our suggestions as well as addressed all of our questions and concerns. From the time of our initial consultation through the completion of the project, Eric was readily available for questions and was on site multiple times during the construction phase. The installation and construction team was supervised by Brady. He provided great leadership and support to his team members and was always willing to discuss issues with us. The installation team worked through some very difficult weather conditions, cleaned the area at the end of each day and finished the project as scheduled. We are very satisfied with the entire process and the very lovely result. We strongly endorse the work of Eric, his team and the entire Dennis 7 Dees organization. .

Our only hold ups were weather and suppliers. The yard looks amazing and we are so happy. It was a massive project and took a fair amount of time but every day the 7 Dees crew kept the site clean at the end of the day.

Let me start with, our positive experience with the Landscape Designer, Austin. He was FANTASTIC, from initial estimates, to finished product. Other contractors just didnt listen to what my budget was, and came in over 2X what my budget was. Austin came in a little over budget, but that was because to do everything I wanted, it was a bit more. But, in working with Austin, he came up with landscape ideas, I never thought of, to help bring everything into budget. Now, let me sing the praises of the crew, that came and did the work. Very professional, and kept the worksite clean and safe. I did not need to say anything to the crew, or to Austin, because the crew did everything to perfection, on time, and in budget.

Dennis 7-Dees did a complete re-landscape of our property in the Fall of 2021. We were very fortunate to be assigned Lars Nielsen as our Landscape Designer. Lars spent time getting to know us and our desires for our outdoor space. Then he put together a design that brought all of our dreams to life. Lars was wonderful to work with at every stage of the process and is still involved one year post-construction in making sure we are 100% satisfied. Our construction crew was led by Nate who was assisted by Ryan. Our project lasted 5 weeks and included a complete tear out and rebuild.

I really liked the Dennis 7 Dees team when we started working with them over a year ago. Great maintenance crew lead by Jeannette, who was very responsive and attentive. Sadly, in the last few months, things have gone way downhill. We were switched to a different crew, and Im not even sure if we currently have an assigned crew since there has been no consistency to who shows up, and two weeks ago nobody showed up, with no notice or explanation. We still havent gotten a response to an email to our account manager about it. Today, two people showed up that Ive never seen, didnt knock on the door to check in (previously even if we had a temporary crew covering a busy week for Jeannette, they would let us know and come introduce themselves), and were here for a whole 15 minutes to leafblow 1/3 of the yard and the sidewalk. They didnt look at any plantings even in the small area they visited, didnt put eyes on the front or side yard, and didnt stay long enough for me to go ask if they could fix the broken sprinkler. The sprinkler itself was sitting out on the front porch steps within full view, it was pretty noticeable. Not checking the health of the plants has become a major problem- when the rain finally stopped in July, our planter occupants died. I discovered that all but two of the drip lines had not been opened when they did their supposedly dedicated visit for the purpose of turning on and checking the sprinkler system. The plants still havent recovered. We had paid Dennis 7 Dees to source and plant many of them just this spring. Oh, and one of our mature yew trees slowly died under their watch too, apparently because nobody noticed the sprinkler line wasnt working for who knows how long. Its incredibly frustrating, especially since the monthly maintenance rate of course went up in June, around the same time we were abruptly switched to this merry-go-round maintenance staff. I dont know if you get pushed to the back burner once youre off the 1st year contract, or if they arent staffed for the number of properties they maintain, but the net effect is that we have a bunch of dead plants, broken sprinklers, overpaid to add a handful of drip lines, and cant even get a response on the other projects they had said they would look into for the hardscape and gates. It is such a stark reversal from last year that I still hope its only a temporary problem, but Im losing faith in that as more things pile up.

Eric was very prompt with all of our communication and was always willing to visit the home to walk thru any questions or ideas we had. He was a great project manager for what we needed.

We had drainage issues in our yard, and our grass was having a tough time in the increasingly hot summers. We decided to invest in a complete restructuring of our lawn, front and back. Lars Nielsen is the landscape designer who helped us form a plan that will be beautiful while conserving water and resources. The new watering system technology is incredibly efficient. The job was started and completed on time, and Lars came back after all of the work was done to check that everything was as it should be, and train us on the system. The seed has taken hold, and although of course there will be spots that will need more seed next spring, we know that Lars and 7 Dees will be available to help! Im already getting excited about improving the beds and adding plants! We have been using 7 Dees in our family for decades, and they have always produced top-notch service.

For years, water got into my basement during large storms. I couldnt see a way to a French drain system that wouldnt destroy my landscape and my huge trees with huge roots. Eric, Joshua, Mateo, and Luis built a better system than I dreamed possible. They worked very carefully, very respectfully, communicated clearly, and delivered a drain system tailored to the challenges in my yard and my budget. The first rains have been handled perfectly! I believe I signed a contract about six months before the start; I was told mid-September and they hit that exactly. They said it would probably be two weeks, and, while there was an illness that cost a day, it took ten days of work. (And Id really rather sick people take the time they need, thats better for everybody.) From my perspective it was on time and on budget. In short, it was professional, predictable, and personal. Id do it exactly the same way again.

Our yard was overgrown and needed a major overhaul. The paths were filled with weeds and most of the plants were overgrown after years of neglect. The paths needed to be completely dug out and all the debris hauled away and replaced with 3plus inches of 1/4 minus and compacted. Huge job. The flower gardens needed to be completely scraped aways after years of plantings migrating out of control. The crew was amazing and great to work with. Very dedicated to doing the best job. We loved these guys...Brady, Willem, Angel & Tarsan. Every day they cleaned up perfectly before leaving for the day. They would check with us daily on their progress to be sure we were happy with the results and if we had any requests. I have low voltage wiring & fixtures running all over the place and I fully expected that this would be a challenge and would need to be repaired after such an extensive job. All irrigation and low voltage wiring and fixtures were back up and running in perfect condition at the end of the job. Were thrilled with the results and highly recommend the company. Ed & Jo Russo

Seven Dees just finished our landscape renovation project, and it turned out absolutely fantastic, in fact better than we expected. We had a sloped yard full of trees that was only 1/2 usable for us. Kelly Paxton and his team designed a terraced yard that is gorgeous. We added irrigation, lighting and a patio to our plan. The renovation now allows us to totally utilize our space. Kelly was amazing to work with. He accommodated our many changes and was always quick to respond. Our foreman Gerardo and his crew worked tirelessly for two months on this project, from the hottest summer days through the rainy fall. They were the hardest working group of people I have ever seen. They moved a lot of rock and dirt to transform our yard, the before and after pictures prove it. From the beginning of the project to the end the whole experience was a joy. Thank you, Kelly and crew, you were the best!

Wow, I was so impressed with the work that Josh and Jared did in my garden on 12/20/22. They were professional, friendly and great to work with; the perfect ambassadors for your company. After planting a tree and 4 shrubs, along with checking out my irrigation system, they even winterized it and found a defective sprinkler head that will be replaced at another time. After all was said and done Josh and Jared left the garden looking beautiful, barked and no sign of dirt or mud on the sidewalk. This is the fourth job that I have worked with landscape designer, Austin Kelly. This time I was pleasantly surprised that Austin came out the day of the service and reviewed the proposal with me prior to the job being started. This was especially important because of the placement of the tree and how close it could be to the driveway and still look great in the front yard. Again, thank you for your wonderful customer service, Austin, and please be sure to put a big star by Josh and Jareds names on your company s roster as they are great representatives for your company.

This was my first time getting landscaping and my yard needed a ton of work! I was new to the process, cost, type of plants, timing etc. Dennis 7 Dees made it very easy to understand, answered all of my novice gardening and design questions quickly, designed something exactly for my needs and installed it without any problems. The crew was also very respectful while working at my home. I would hire them again. Excited for all of the plants to bloom and fill out in the spring!

Austin Kelley was wonderful to work with. He listened to my requests, incorporated my ideas and plant requests, and had a fun sense of humor that made the process all the more enjoyable. With the 7 Dees company behind him, the overall price was manageable because the company could source the plants at wholesale. Cant recommend them highly enough.

Our first project was a faux-cobblestone sloping driveway with engineered drainage to prevent rainwater entering the garage at the bottom of the slope.

These guys are pretty incredible. Yes, they keep our yard in shape, as one would expect (when they leave after a few hours, our entire property looks different). But this is also just a really well-run business with friendly, responsible employees. They are always on time. They never inexplicably disappear after completing only half the job. They have a remarkable memory for previous issues and special complexities. And when my car recently got buried in the snow, Justin Snodgrass showed up with his jeep and towed me to freedom! I can t say enough good things about this organization. These are truly people who understand trees.

We adore Justin Snodgrass at our house. There is no problem he hasnt solved for us! He and his team not only keep our yard in beautiful shape year-round, theyve also built stairs for us so that we no longer slide down our driveway during ice storms, have helped us connect with the right arborist to help with several downed trees, and even recently showed up on a weekend to help tow our car up up a hill! Hes friendly, professional, responsive, affordable -- I cant say enough good things about him. Because of him, we will be loyal Seven Dees customers forever!

Dennis 7 Dees is a top-notch operation. The design consultant, Austin K, was our go-to guy for the entire project, listening to what we needed and what would work for our lifestyle. He drew up some beautiful designs to completely redo our front and backyards, worked with us to tweak and make revisions, and then he and the team brought them to life. He had a great balance between providing his recommendations based off knowledge and experience, while also making sure we were ultimately making the final decisions. the foreman, Nate, was also amazing. He was the leader on-site during the installation. He and his team were prompt every day. they kept us informed of what they were doing. they had us review placements and designs before they started to make sure we were on the same page. They were tidy and cleaned up every day. it was a delightful experience. Yes, they are expensive. You get what you pay for with them though. They were in and they were out, which was what we were after. I didnt want a project that was going to linger. We are about to dive into our second project with Dennis 7 Dees and are excited to see the end result!

I was really impressed by the creativity and professionalism of Landscape Designer, Sam DeFever, who I had met a few years ago when he quoted me on a project that I needed to defer. When I decided to move forward with a portion of that project this past winter, he was my first and only call. He walked the project with me and really listened to my goals and constraints and provided very creative and functional solutions. The bids are clear and easy to understand, he was very communicative about the timeline of the project and the work was executed beautifully! The crew who did the landscaping were so nice and respectful. I cant wait to have Sam and the crew back to do my front yard soon! 5++ Stars!

Weve had a great experience working with 7-Dees. We were first time homeowners in NE Portland, and this was our first time working with a landscape design company. Eric and his team made the process so easy from start to finish! They listened closely to our needs, and helped transform our backyard into a family-friendly oasis, all while staying in budget. We recently moved outside the city (it was hard to leave that backyard...) but are happy to know 7-Dees provides services this far out. We plan to use them again at our new home. Thank you 7-Dees!

After 7 projects over the past 5 years, I wouldnt even consider anyone else to do a landscaping project for me. Seven Dees, and Eric Hagberg in particular, has provided outstanding service on all projects. They are reliable, honest, do excellent work, provide what they commit to, or more, on every project. Trees that are promised to be 6 to 8 feet, for example, have often been 8 to 10 feet. The few problems that occurred during or after our projects were quickly and more than satisfactorily resolved. Even after our projects were completed, any new related issues that arose, within the contract provisions or not, were quickly and professionally resolved. I give Eric and Seven Dees a 5 star rating without reservation. They have been exceptional in addressing all of our landscaping needs.

We hired Dennis 7 Dees to do a major landscaping project around our home. Eric Hagberg was the masterful designer. We gave him a few parameters but, pretty much left the rest up to his breadth of experience and imagination. We were looking forward to a magnificent result. We were not disappointed. In fact, Eric and Dennis 7 Dees way exceeded our expectations. We were so impressed with the crew. They were incredible. They showed up early each day, worked hard all day long, and cleaned up after themselves before going home. Eric, the project manager, the job foreman and the crew were polite, professional, and personable. Eric came by regularly to check on the progress and to make sure things were going as planned. Through out the entire process Eric and Dennis 7 Dees and the whole crew were very responsive to our needs, questions and concerns. We are delighted beyond words with the whole experience. Especially with the final product.

I had Dennis 7 Dees renovate my front yard several years ago. They were wonderful to work with, and created a beautiful path to the front door. They transplanted big bushes, and then were agreeable to let me fill in with natives around the small lawn we kept. A couple of years later I hired a different landscape company to put in a water feature. They were terrible, and a year after the project that was supposed to take 2 months, it was still not done. I called Eric at Dennis 7 Dees to see if they could finish up the job. They were so understanding and helpful, and had to redo all that had been done incorrectly. I have called them for irrigation repairs, questions, etc. throughout the years. I rely on them to always be prompt, professional, and helpful.

Designer - Eric really listened to all the adults in the home and came through with several options that we were able to mix and match. He measured, suggested, drew and re-drew designs, then he worked with the project manager and the outside cement company to make sure things were satisfactory. The Project Manager and Crew - I wish I had been home on their last day of work to give each of those men a tip. They worked rain and shine, they laid the retaining wall correctly and after realizing the stone was the wrong color, ripped it out and relaid it perfectly. Our primary concern had been drainage (we get street run off) and this past winter with the snow and rain our swamp of a front yard and parking strip were dry. After 1 year we are still pleased with their work and have recommended them to anyone we can.

Assigned to the planting was Jose MO and Samuel; both of whom followed in the professionalism of Denniss 7 Dees model. They worked the planting, irrigation and mulching exactly as I had ask for. In fact they both were above the standard set. If I had a question they responded with respect and a generous smile. Everything they did at my home was perfect. No detail was left undone.

The goal of our project was to replant two trees that would be replacing ones that we had previously removed and also to update existing landscaping in the same area. Sam DeFever worked with me to provide appropriate suggestions for trees and shrubs and that would also complement surrounding mature landscaping. We went back and forth a few times until I settled on the right combination. I am happy to say that the result is superb and that we have received many thumbs up from neighbors and our own yard care crew. Choosing 7 Dees Landscaping was by far the easiest route for what we needed and I am glad that I did!

Jose built a fantastic step from our driveway to the yard and I told him he was an artist. My mom actually made chocolate chip cookies for them which they appreciated. Both gentlemen were so patient with me and answered my questions. I would highly recommend Kelly Paxton as the sales person for the company.

After meeting with four landscaping companies for our small front and back yard, the plan Lars provided captured exactly what we wanted with a beautiful and low maintenance design. We appreciated that the bid was clearly divided up so we understood the cost of various aspects and that it was no issue when we decided to do various parts ourselves to save on the cost (i.e. river rock along the parking strip). Lars was highly communicative throughout the entire process -- I had lots of questions! -- and flexible when it came to meeting our requests. We are going through the Backyard Habitats certification so it was great to be able to tailor our design to include mostly native plants, no pesticides and eco-lawn seed installation. The crew that visited our house was wonderful and we love how our design came to life! Soon afterwards we realized that we wanted to add some boulders to the front and even though it was their busy season, they were able to quickly accommodate this add on. The excellent customer service we received combined with the experience of their knowledgeable staff is truly outstanding. We highly recommend D7D and Lars in particular for any landscape project!

Drew Snodgrass to the rescue, again! This is our second experience working with Drew: he did a major front yard renovation at our previous home (gorgeous) and most recently helped us created a huge level space in our backyard for our daughters wedding. With only a few months before the wedding, Drew advised us how he would approach leveling the space, add flowers to give the yard that special day feel, widen our path to a special space across a creek, and add a bursts of color with hydrangeas, petunias, begonias, impatiens, and geraniums. Drew was there throughout the entire process, working with the crew, answering our never-ending questions, making sure we got the best bang for our buck. He went above and beyond making sure we had the right amount of water running during the 116 degree weather to ensure we didnt lose any plants, and make sure our grass and flowers peaked at just the right moment. Not only is Drew amazingly creative, hes just a wonderful human being. We 100% recommend Drew Snodgrass and Dennis 7 Dees Landscaping!

I needed to install a root barrier along my fence line to stop any encroaching tree roots from damaging my houses foundation. My research of root barriers lead me to the manufacturer of the actual barrier, a local distributor and their reference to 7 Dees. My initial contact with Eric Hagberg was really great. He had me email him pictures of the fence line and then he immediately contacted me about the process, what to expect, how the barrier works, how tree roots spread.... I think you get the picture, all my questions were answered. Eric quickly scheduled the project for the end of August but actually were able to fit the small job in sooner. The day of the install Eric came out along with Jose and his crew. Eric went over the project and Jose and his crew just dug in. I cant begin to tell you how pleased we were with the project and the outcome. There was no way to get a trencher in my yard so they had to hand trench the 25 feet which was no easy task. They removed roots and installed the barrier. By the time they were done, you couldnt even tell that they had been there. Im so pleased with the job that Jose and his crew did. When we do the landscape design and work for the rest of my yard, I know that I will be turning to Eric and 7 Dees again. Many thanks to them.

I called from overseas trying to get a plant to my father for Fathers Day and was put on hold for 20 mins. When I finally did get to speak to whomever I was transferred to, I arranged for a hanging basket to be delivered only to be put on hold AGAIN for 15 mins. only to be told the delivery cost would be $45.00. That was almost the cost of the hanging basket itself. RIDICULOUS. The most infuriating part was that wasnt shared up front and I was put on hold numerous times when the girl who answered the phone was told this multiple times. Poor service, poor help, poor professionalism. Really disappointed in this place.

Working with Kelly Paxton at Dennis 7 Dees is a breath of fresh air. His responsiveness alone sets him apart in a world where contractors of any kind get back to you so infrequently. Kelly and his team bring a level of professionalism, service and experience that you won t find elsewhere. On top of that, they genuinely care. I d recommend Kelly and DSD a 100 times over.

We recently hired Dennis 7 Dees to landscape our home in Gearhart. Jonah listened carefully to what we wanted and did an incredible job designing a plan that met all our criteria. The crew that came in to do the installation was wonderful. They worked hard and were flexible when wed add something to the project. 7 Dees is now maintaining our property and we are so pleased with their work. I would HIGHLY recommend Dennis 7 Dees for landscape needs. Thank you to Jonah, Clinton, Mark, Moses and Eric for making our landscape so beautiful!

We worked with Justin Snodgrass Of Seven Dees to plan the scope of work for our landscaping and lighting project. This included 1. Installation of a improved sprinkling system to eliminate all hand watering. 2. Installing a low voltage lighting system. 3. Replanting the grass. Justin did a excellent job of planning the details and giving us a timely bid. Seven Dees was able to start the job very quickly. Their foreman, Miguel Sanchez , did an outstanding job planning the daily job tasks. He would be at the site before his team and walk thru the tasks for that day. Work started well before 8 a.m. All the tools, equipment, materials were neatly organized and accessible for each task. Everyone knew what to do at all times. Not one time was the job stopped for lack of those items! Miguel, Jake Wasielewski, Darren Elliott, and Sophie Ashcroft had seamless teamwork and demonstrated exceptional efficiency . Each team member was courteous , very knowledgeable and took the time to LISTEN and answer our questions. In addition to the excellent job, they helped us learn the details of the systems and improve our yard maintenance. On a final note the sprinkler and light fixtures are very high quality and durable. We would recommend Seven Dees to anyone wanting head of the class landscape planning and installation.

As a resident of Portland for over 25 years, I was familiar with Dennis 7 Dees Landscaping but had not used their services until we moved into a new house. Eric responded to my email request for a quote very quickly and met with me, taking the time to understand my goals, my very vague concept of what I had in mind . and our budget. He nailed it. The front yard turned out fantastic with dry creek bed, stones, mix of ornamental grasses and other native species. When I got ready to do the back yard two years later, there was no hesitation in contacting Eric again. Throughout the process, I appreciated Erics honesty, breakdown of costs and willingness to work within our budget. Thank you to Eric and the team at 7Dees for all that was done before, during, and after the project to ensure we were satisfied. We love our yard(s) and would definitely recommend their services.

Dennis 7 Dees did a beautiful landscaping job in our backyard! The project was done at the beginning of June, and the photos attached here reflect the growth as of today, later August. The flowers and trees are growing perfectly, we now have bees and hummingbirds to watch, and really enjoy some natural beauty while spending so much time at home during this pandemic.

I just completed an extensive yard project with 7Dees. Of course, I have used this company many times for probably over two decades. I have worked with Lars Nielson on several projects. He s an awesome designer. It seems like he can see what you want and make it happen. I am totally appreciative of his help and I love the results of his recommendations.The crew was fantastic. Gerardo, the foreman, worked with Will, Rigoberto and Jose. They are very hard workers and did an excellent job. It was quite tedious dealing with an already existing yard. They were so respectful of the property and left the everything impeccable...cleaned up very nicely. I would without question give them a five star as well as heartfelt thanks for an incredible finished product!

I worked with Eric from 7 Dee s Landscaping to help me design a plan for my newly purchased home. I considered this quite a challenge as this property had been Ignored and overgrown for years. We worked together for many weeks while he created ideas. I found Eric to be very talented with a great eye for landscape design. I also saw other landscapes that he worked on and was Very impressed! Eric is so easy to work with as he also encourages input from his clients, if they choose to be involved. Would I used Dennis 7 Dees again? Absolutely!!

My backyard landscape idea was brought to life professionally, promptly and perfectly. I obtained several bids for my project (complete backyard landscape and irrigation) and the design from Dennis 7 Dees was clearly the best. Austin Kelly was a very good listener and created the design I wanted while providing his expertise the make the project even better. He was prompt with all communication and getting my job on the calendar. Additionally, the Dennis 7 Dees team who created my beautiful backyard completed the project in a matter of days--the project did not unnecessarily drag on. Austin has continued to follow-up to make sure my yard has been how Id imagined it to be. I highly recommend Dennis 7 Dees!

My husband and I purchased a home in Portland a couple years ago and hired Dennis7Ds to completely redo an overgrown yard. Lars Nielsen was our Designer and Project Manager. Before we met, he asked us to collect images of plantings we liked. We met again to review the full landscape design plan, including scaled drawings and colored photographs with names of all proposed plantings. The work crew were all friendly and knowledgeable, working efficiently to regrade and create our new outdoor living space. We replaced all lawn with a wide variety of shrubs, flowering perennials and grasses. For new hardscaping, a backyard patio of pavers, stone walkways and custom built wooden fencing were added. Lars has continued to meet with us, explaining plant care and ensuring their continued health. Now in our second year, if we have a question or concern, he has remained available and become a trusted friend. We highly recommend Dennis7Ds to anyone looking for a yard to enjoy for years to come.

I really want to give Dennis 7 Dees Landscaping a heart felt Thank You for the great jobs they have done for us. Last year we had a full makeover of our backyard and the results were perfect. The landscape designer listened to our ideas and preferences and truly delivered. The workmanship of the landscape crew was excellent.

The work crew was scheduled with enough time to do their work with attention to detail and the worksite was immaculate when they finished.

My first experience with Dennis 7 Dees Landscaping began five years ago. I moved to Oregon from the East Coast which has a much different climate. I met Lars, Landscape Designer and Installation. Lars worked with me in planning the entire project for my new home. There was great communication. Lars has always made the time to solve any of the little issues along the way.

January 23, 2021

We are quite pleased with our project. At the first meeting Kenna of 7-Dees outlined the process clearly. The estimated schedule and cost were within expectations and an in-progress suggestion was spot on. Our wonky 25 year old aged out landscaping at this new-to-us house was really unbalanced and overly worked. Kenna suggested options, discussed preferences, listened, to our wants, desires and budget, he then submitted a plan that we reworked a bit but collaboratively, which we wanted. Once approved by us and scheduled, they showed up as promised and worked our project without delay, it took a week. The project looks great now and will only improve as they mature. They were able to work with our existing irrigation system, replacing the applicators as needed for the entirely new plantings. They were super neat and tidy during construction, cleaning up as they went. Color us happy! The birdies will be happy too!

We worked with 7 Dees on a landscaping overhaul of our backyard. One of the 7 Dees lanscape designers, Lars, came to our home and walked us through some of our options.

We had such a great experience working with 7 Dees in July 2020. They installed irrigation in our existing front lawn, ran new drip irrigation to our raised veggie beds, and prepped and installed new sod plus irrigation in our side yard. Sam, their landscape designer, was super responsive from day 1, and continues to be if ever we have a question. The work crew, led by Julien, were very professional, friendly, and left the work site as clean as could be after each day. I was initially hesitant to go with a bigger, well known company thinking the pricing would be too high, and the service and attention to detail lacking. Man was I wrong on all fronts! I cant recommend 7 Dees more highly, and I will definitely be using them again for future projects.

Lars did an amazing job with our yard. He worked very well with our specific preferences and tastes. In the end, we have a yard our neighbors are still telling us looks great (the work was done six months ago).

Throughout the year, we have constant beauty out our windows, and cannot wait until we can spend time in our backyard this summer! It will be our oasis thanks to Lars and Seven Dees!

I had the pleasure and good fortune of working with Dennis 7 Dees on two major landscaping projects over the past three years - one done in preparation for the sale of a home and the other to upgrade the irrigation system and landscaping at a newly purchased home. The manager for both projects, Kenna Hartman, was outstanding. His design recommendations and advice on appropriate trees, plants and shrubs were excellent as were his recommendations on sprinkler system modifications and upgrades. The site lead for both projects, Nelson, was also outstanding. He was hard working, very knowledgeable, patient with me and the many questions I would ask, and a pleasure to work with. I highly recommend Dennis 7 Dees and will use them again for any future work. When using them, I know Ill get high quality work that is done consistent with industry standards and best practices and that is provided with great customer care.

ASK FOR LARS NIELSON for starters, Ill tell you more later on that...ok here is the deal, and Im going to give it to you straight. Seriously, read this whole review. It will save you time and money. I work in real estate, and by that I mean I run a real estate company with over 800 people...who freaking cares about me...I know you are reading this for you and your peace of mind around a landscaping project, and Im getting there. Most landscapers are just ok, and Ive been doing this for so long that at least I know what questions to ask so that my expectations are met. So 1 out of 10, most get a 5. They are fine..just fine...whatever. So a few years ago I decided to landscape a house I had lived in for 17 years. LARS NIELSON did it and it was fantastic. I couldnt believe the ease of the project and the cleanliness of the crew. Amazing. Five Stars for sure. Annnnnnnddddd to be honest I felt like it was a little expensive. I wouldnt know though because I didnt bid it out. So like most homeowners I got that house exactly where I wanted it and sold it to buy my dream house...and when I say dream house what I mean is the Money Pit and War of the Roses. Its in the west hills on a slope that literally fell off during a slide a few years ago. Yay me. So this time, new house, I decided to get A LOT of bids for landscaping. This beast on two lots was scaring me to death on cost and potentially another slide. So I called and bid out 5 FIVE different places (I called around 15 places-I lost track). WHAT A CLOWN SHOW. Some companies were from a magazine with ads (yes they pay to advertise and then dont even call you back), and after hours and hours of gathering up bids and talking to some very nice people. I realized that not one company came back with anything professional. No drawings (or they wanted me to pay $5000 down to have their design crew draw up plans without even an idea of what they might do) No legitimate bid. ZERO conversation on how to stabilize the hill and what they could do on that. A lot of well we cant promise anything. I had pretty much settled on a company but honestly I just wasnt wowed....so.... I called LARS NIELSON up again....juuuuust to see if I had miss judged the feeling that I paid too much....He met with me, asked for my pinterest page of ideas, and had drawings within a week! WOWZA..but then here comes the price tag right?!?!! No, actually...I had listened to everyone else talk about Dennis 7 Dees being SO EXPENSIVE, and they just arent. You pay for what you get. And what I was getting before LARS was a clown show that could have cost me a lot more in the end. Lars laid it out for me so that we can do my house in 3 phases. The drawing was exactly what I wanted in my mind. He made my dreams on my Pinterest page come to life and through all of that...the crew is CLEAN, fast, accurate, kind, happy people that just make life easy. They are NOT your average contractor. They are the most professional group of workers (with LARS NIELSON running them) and I literally cannot believe how happy I have been....twice now. A few things...Speed of the leader, speed of the pack. I dont know about the other project managers so just dont use anyone else. Demand that Lars be your guy. In the absences of value. price becomes everything The reason people have a fit about the cost of Dennis 7 Dees is because they didnt find the value. Ask for Lars, you will not be disappointed in value. Just over here living in my Alice in Wonderland garden of amazingness....thanks Lars and team. You made this girls dreams come true. Thank you Thank you Thank you!!! Amazing service, price and design!

Had someone come out to quote me on some landscaping, and he was very nice, but overall I was dissatisfied with my experience. Asked for the quote to be separated out so I could choose which things Id like done based on cost. The quote wasnt separated out like Id asked and it was all much more expensive than expected, so I asked how much to only have a tree removed. I got an email back saying they wouldnt do just the tree. FYI, they will not do any landscaping for less than $600. They might provide good service, but I cant speak to that.

7 Dees, you should be fined! My neighbor is having a backyard project done that has taken a month so far. Noisy workmen arrive at 7AM run caterpillar and then take off when it warms up. Today a huge crane has our street closed off with pallets of cinder block being swung over our house. The noise is deafening. No advance warning or communication. Ive called the landscaping division of this company and the guy is always away from his desk or on vacation, so does not return calls. This morning the street is blocked off and we cant move our vehicle on the street because it is blocked by huge white bags and equipment. The very least you could do is give close neighbors a warning. The property owners are still on vacation--smart people!
