My wife and I recently decided to have an irrigation system installed to cover our entire yard which consists of trees, hundreds of plants, as well as a small grass backyard measuring 40’ x 30’. For the past 3 years, I have been manually moving sprinklers around the yard. Although I had the watering system down to a science, it took me close to 4 hours to water the entire yard. This included using two spigots simultaneously, multiple 100 foot hoses, setting up sprinkles on buckets to reach over some taller plants, and then putting everything away after the watering was done. I couldn’t go on vacation during the summer because I had to be at home to water my extensive landscaping. I called Whatcom Lawns since they have been maintaining (mow, fertilize, aerate, weed control, etc.) my lawn since moving into my house 3 years ago. Whatcom Lawns installed the irrigation system in 4 days and I am thrilled with the results. The crew tested the system to ensure the sprinkler heads provided full coverage, and explained in detail how to use the system by accessing an app on my phone. The crew filled in all of the trenches and took additional time to ensure my yard was left in perfect condition before the job was completed. The owner of Whatcom Lawns also stopped by a week after the installation to see if I had any further questions and to ensure I was completely satisfied. The system works so efficiently that it now takes less than 45 minutes to water my entire yard as opposed to hours when done manually. Working with Whatcom Lawns over the last three years has been a great experience. They are great at what they do and I look forward to having them maintain my yard for years to come.

I waited a while to write this review, but I think Whatcom Lawns is the real deal! When I bought my house, the backyard was a blanket of weeds. I had no idea how I’d ever have anything resembling a lawn back there, but from the day I met Steve, Whatcom Lawns was friendly, professional, responsive, and mindful of the watershed’s special considerations. After a year of yard treatments, I am now the proud (and honestly, kind of astonished) owner of a nearly dandelion-free yard. I wouldn’t hesitate to work with Whatcom Lawns again.

The Whatcom Lawns team provides reliable, quality service with a can do spirit. They clearly take pride in their work, and we appreciate their attention to detail and honesty.

George Keilman

What a fantastic job! And so, so reasonable. They cleaned up a lawn totally neglected for months, in preparation for winter. Next spring they’ll be leveling and replacing the lawn.

Scott Aspman

Whatcom Lawns has been very responsive to our particular TREE and BUSHES needs. They communicate well, sometimes reaponding in person to check out our situation. We are very pleased.

Carmel Meyer

I have used Whatcom Lawns for my fertilizing in moss care of my lawn for years. They’ve also done a number of small jobs for me. I found have found the crews technically proficient and very efficient at what they do. They are experts in the field and you can tell that by watching them. Any errors, and there are exceptionally few, are quickly corrected. Brian has been doing my yard for many years and not only is he proficient he is very pleasant to talk to. This is not all together usual in today’s world and I appreciate it very much.

Scott Moses

Our yard and that of our adjacent neighbor, have both been serviced by Whatcom Lawns for over 8 years. I especially appreciate their responsiveness to the inevitable work adjustments that happen over long-term arrangements like this. They always have the ‘big picture” in mind in working with their customers.

Paul Peterson

We have had Whatcom Lawns trim our hedges and they are very professional, on time, and do an awesome job that we highly recommended you to hire them for your lawn care needs.

Raymond and Carla Van Beek

I have been a customer of Whatcom Lawns for over 10 years. Not once have I had any issues with their service which includes mowing, edging, weed control and pruning projects.

Our lawns was mowed weekly this summer. The fellows that did the mowing did a great job and our lawn looked beautiful all summer.

Violet Laidman

My husband and I started using Whatcom Lawns several years ago after asking one of our neighbors how her lawn had become so healthy and weed free. Well, it didn’t take long before our lawn looked just as beautiful! The crew from Whatcom Lawns comes out a few times a year with the right services at the right time (aeration, moss control, and fertilizer) and we don’t have to worry about a thing! It is so worth it for us. We highly recommend them.

Sue Steelquist

We love Whatcom Lawns! Happy professionals that know what they are doing! The service we received when we first moved into our new home was excellent. We called Whatcom Lawns and spoke with Michael, who provided a run down of all their services and listened to what we wanted and what we possibly might need in order to maintain our lawn, trees and beds. They came out and helped us figure out a plan and gave us a reasonable estimate. We are busy professionals and I love that they call us with our seasonal reminders, and that I can call them up anytime and know that they will take care of everything we need in a timely manner. This makes our landscaping beautiful and our lives easier! Thank you Whatcom Lawns!

William Zuidmeer

They gave us a reasonable quote for pruning our fruit trees, did a great job and removed all the branches and cleaned up after they were done! would recommend them to anyone!

Rodney L Visser

Whatcom Lawns (WL) has been providing lawn care services to us since August 2019, when we moved to our house in Blaine. WL has been responsive, such as quickly removing a tree downed after a recent windstorm. It has handled all care professionally, while observing the local COVID restrictions. The yard looks well cared for and all areas, including driveway and patio, are cleaned up after each visit. We have expanded the regular services and also ordered several special projects, all delivered within the proposed cost and timeline, which are always provided prior to the service. Steve will discuss the projects in person with us and videotape the yard in order to provide his crew with specific instructions. We are quite satisfied.

Rebecca Chao

Whatcom lawns has been taking care of my yard for several years, and I highly recommend them. The crews are knowledgeable and courteous. And excellent advice is available for landscaping projects as well as trimming and planting jobs.

Kathe Vago

I’ve been using Whatcom Lawns for two years and have been very happy with the job they do. They run a first class operation and charge reasonable prices.

Charles Leslie

We have had the pleasure of working with Whatcom Lawns for the past four years, two of those years were as an out-of-state landlord, and the last two we have lived in our home in Sudden Valley. Dealing with the long distance was so easy. They kept our lawn trimmed for our tenants and did an excellent job. Then when we moved here we decided to redo our front yard. We removed the grass (sad grass. would have taken much, much work to restore it) and to put in a creative design with stones and mulch. The two men we worked with were excellent: talented, efficients, easy to work with to get just the design and results we wanted. I would highly recommend Whatcom Lawns for any lawn service needed – from simple maintenance to exquisite redesigning.

Barbara Michelson-Harder

We’ve had Whatcom lawns come to our home twice now and they are very courteous and do exactly what they’ve said and do a very good job. We will continue to use their services.

Bob Smithson

We have been using Whatcom Lawns to service our property for about 4 or 5 years now. We have contracted their services for regular lawn and weed control maintenance, tree pruning and stump grinding, laying down gravel and decorative rock and installing a new drain system for our gutter run off. All their work has been as promised. Steve is committed to excellent customer service and professionalism and we see that reflected in the work his associates have done for us. We would recommend this service to anyone interested in lawn care well done!!

Valerie O'Connor

I am a homeowner in the Homestead Development. We purchased our home in 2010 and Whatcom Lawns has been taking care of our property from that time to the present. Their work is outstanding and I cannot think of a service that they do not provide in order to keep your property looking immaculate. I have met Steve the owner and he is pleasant to work with and always provides excellent customer service.

Jerry Lee

Your crew was here for less than half a day and did an outstanding job. They visited with me and explained what they plan to do and how long it should take. Well they beat there time. They also moved some chips I had in place to the other side of the house and spread them for me..This wasn’t part of the agreement. Thank to your crew for an outstanding job.

Bill Ellingson

Steve and his team have always done a great job on our yard and beds for over 3 years. Steve always tells me exactly what I need to get done and not a bit extra, and his team arrive without fail and are always willing to adjust as my yard evolves over the years. My grass looks great throughout the year, I never worry about picking weeds from my beds, and they always leave the area better than when they found it. highly recommended.

Dean Hildebrand

Last year we moved into a new place with an existing sprinkler system. We had NO idea how it worked but we made a call to Whatcom Lawns and they were out to help in no time. There were two nice men who thoughtfully and methodically went through each zone and adjusted sprinklers as needed. Our flower beds and lawns were perfectly watered the whole summer! Thank you for such prompt and thorough service!

Barbi Som

Whatcom Lawn’s installed an irrigation system at our home that included (4) lawn zones, (3) flower bed zones, (2) garden zones and a new faucet located near the garden.

The proposal: Steve came to the house and we discussed the sprinkler / irrigation system. I knew what I wanted but had limited knowledge, he educated me on what was possible and we came up with a plan. Next day a member of his crew performed the measurements for the new system. A few days later the proposal with details and cost estimation arrived.

The installation: They obtained all permits and scheduled the project. All existing underground items – TV Cable, Electrical, Water, Sewer, & Gas lines were located and marked. Crew arrived on the agreed upon date. Sprinkler head locations and water lines were marked with spray paint. Ditches were dug, control box locations were dug, pipe laid. Where the ground had been disrupted, new grass seed was spread. It was amazing to watch how quickly they executed the plan.

The conclusion: Two weeks later the grass seed sprouted, the garden was planted and everything was on a timed watering system. Gone are the days with garden hoses all over the yard.

We had gotten other cost estimates, some higher, some lower, be we felt that Whatcom Lawns provided us the best overall value. We laid out a plan and they executed the plan with no issues.
Yes, I would highly recommend Whatcom Lawns.

David Luton
Very pleased with lawn thatching, aeration and overseding this fall. Crew of three came in with commercial equipment and did a very professional job.
Jeff Johnston
Just wanted to let you know I am a happy girl today with the sod cutting. What a great job they did and I am so very pleased. I am so impressed with the different crews that come to the house for various chores. I have never been disappointed with their work and they are always polite and friendly, neat and tidy.  Thanks for doing such a great job…..all of you!!!! Please pass this along to whom ever might be interested in knowing about my satisfaction with you and your crew. Thanks again.
Carol McBride
My lawn is the envy of my whole family and my whole neighborhood! I am so pleased with how green and lush it is. Steve, Jordan, and the team have been so responsive to my needs (taking care with my dog and such). I’m so pleased.
Tricia Hitchcock
Whatcom Lawns is an outstanding company with superior work, service and ethics. We just started working with them about a month ago, and they have measured up to nothing less than excellent! We would definitely recommend them to anyone.
Tanya Chevis

The owner, Steve and the crew are very professional. Steve has always been great with communication and doing what he said he would do. We have used them for a couple years and been very pleased with the service. Their weed control service have our beds and gravel areas looking spotless year round. The crew are always professional and conscious of pets. I also appreciate when they leave the messages about any lawn treatments they performed (fertilizer, moss control, etc.).

Steve Kirk
Best all around Whatcom county friendly knowledgeable guys who get the job done efficiently.
Chico Perez
We had a great experience with Whatcom Lawns. Zach and Trevor were fantastic. They were professional, courteous, worked efficiently and also made sure that not only my yard was clean but that our neighbor’s yard was cleaned up when they were done trimming the hedges. We will be sure to use Whatcom Lawns again in the future.
Rhonda Purdy
We had a lawn disaster about 3 years ago. Finally called in Whatcom lawns for the whole meal deal. A sprinkler system, new (re-seeded) lawn and some more landscaping. They aren’t the least expensive, but their entire team is fantastic. The work is done well and quickly, out lawn now looks the the epitome of a Lynden lawn.
Don McQuarrie
Whatcom lawns did our lawn for a year and always were pleasant and professional when I interacted with them but also didn’t get in the way at all. They also cut down and cleaned up a large amount of blackberry bushes, I wouldn’t have been able to do that on my own!
Jahnel Burgess
I have been using their services for years They keep the landscape looking great, taking care of all the chores I don’t have time to get to.
Roger Hutchison
I guess it’s been four years now that Whatcom Lawns has been providing lawn care for us, and I don’t know why it’s taken me so long to write a review! The crews are always on time and a pleasure to have around, and they do excellent work at a fair price. The owner, Steve, presented us with a number of options, and I never for a moment thought I was getting “up-sold” on anything, as is so often the case nowadays. Highly recommended!
Paul Klein
I have used Whatcom Lawns for 6 months. An initial clean up and then a monthly tidy service. The quality is great and the staff is very friendly. Good choice for landscaping service!!
Mike Burdick
Whatcom has done many projects around our neighborhood, including special projects that have come up. The workers are curtious and the owners are kind.
