Admirable Landscapes

I reached out to Admirable Landscapes for some help with my small yard. It needs a makeover and based on the reviews on Unilocal!,I was excited to work with them.
Our interaction started via phone and Kim came out to my place. She was very nice and even drew some rough diagrams in her notepad with the promise of getting back to me with an initial plan within a week or so.
Two weeks went by and I heard nothing. So I called and left a message with an actual person. I was assured that I would hear back. A week later — still nothing. So I called back and left a voicemail this time. Still nothing. This was almost two months ago. I have not heard back from Admirable Landscapes.
I am all for local businesses being successful. However, I am also a professional and cannot stand blatant unprofessionalism. This kind of behavior is unacceptable. I would be OK with them calling me back and telling me that they cannot fit me into their schedule anymore, rather than completely ignoring me.
This review is based on my one-​time experience with Admirable Landscapes. It is important for me to be able to express my thoughts about a specific experience. That’s what Unilocal is for after all :) That said, I am a fair person and might give Admirable another shot at some point in the future.

I’m terribly disappointed in this company. I saw good reviews on Unilocal so I called them. One of the owners Kim Knoernschild came out right away and looked over the project and seemed very professional. She said she was busy that wkend but would get the estimate to me early the following week. I let one week go by then two. When I still hadn’t heard anything I called and left a message. I was completely ignored. It’s been over a month now and not a peep. It’s so incredibly unprofessional. if she didn’t want to project, she should have told me right then it’s too small a job or she didn’t like it. For her to say she’ll get me an estimate then never contact me again is really unfair. Now I wasted all this time and I have to start over.

I work for a local non-​profit and Admirable Landscapes really came through for us! Not only was the work they did beautiful, they offered us good advice on completing our project and ended up donating a sizable chunk of both the materials and labor towards our efforts! Thank you so much, Admirable Landscapes! It’s companies like yours that truly make our communities better!

I tried to find a maintenance crew to spruce up my parents yard in Vancouver from Portland, no easy task. But John at Admirable stepped up and got up there and made my parents yard ready for spring! My aging father’s recent surgery left him a bit overwhelmed, but after Johns visit yesterday it gave him the extra boost he needed to keep it up now!!! Thanks to you and your crew for making his day!!!

We called Admirable Landscaping less than a week before our garden wedding. .. they came out to our Portland home and mowed, edged and trimmed our large back and front lawns– it looked 100% better. They did an outstanding job!

Jason is the man. Great work cleaning up our business landscape. Detailed and fair bid, timely followup, and spot on execution. Great to have the Admirable team on the job.

Admirable Landscapes has to be one of the best deals in Portland. John is an amazing professional and his crews simply get the job done.
My jaw dropped open in happy amazement when I got the bill. It was exactly what we had agreed.
Do me a favor and tell him Rob sent you when you call Admirable.
