Best Landscapers in Bellevue, WA

A ranked shortlist of licensed landscaping contractors for someone hiring or vetting in Bellevue. Ranked on an active L&I class for the work and job-relevant Bellevue permits, not reviews, ads, or a workmanship guarantee.

Bellevue permit records through 2026-08-28, verified against the Washington State Department of Labor & Industries licensing records, snapshot dated 2026-08-16. Ranking reflects license standing and permit history, not a workmanship guarantee. This week's Bellevue permit activity.

Which landscaping contractor has pulled the most landscaping permits in Bellevue?

Northwest Landscape Services has pulled the most landscaping permits in Bellevue of any firm holding the matching L&I class: 16 permits, most recently in 2025. It has held L&I license NORTHLS845O3 for 9 years.

That count includes only permits whose type matches landscaping work in Bellevue's own records, and only firms that hold the matching L&I class as a primary or tied specialty, so a firm with a larger pile of unrelated permits does not rank here. Permits are counted per license number, and a firm holding several licenses is counted on its busiest one. Bellevue records run through 2026-08-28.

Most established Bellevue landscaping contractors

Longest-licensed firms based in Bellevue that hold the right L&I class, oldest license first.

How this ranking works

Organic results require an active L&I license, the correct class for the trade as the firm's primary or tied fit (a mechanical company that also holds an electrical license does not lead the electrician list), and at least one job-relevant building permit in this city's records. They are ranked by the number of relevant permits, then by how recently the firm worked, then by how long the firm has been licensed. This reflects license standing and real permit history - it is not a workmanship guarantee. L&I does not publish a disciplinary file, so a clean record is not part of this ranking. Promoted entries, when present, are paid placements and are not scored by these rules.

Confidence: high. The permit type and the license class both match this trade.
