Sorry this pro can’t do your job, but we know other pros who can.
Introduction: I have over 12 years of experience in landscaping, gardening, yard work and possess a keen sense for making a property look great! I have also consulted on landscape design that integrate floral, fountains, ponds, rock gardens and streams that present not only a unique, attractive landscape but also a balanced and harmonious space. If you have an overgrown garden and yard that needs to be made presentable again or just need a great and thorough spruce up, please call me. I really excel on this! I also offer power pressure washing. Make your decks, fences, driveways, sidewalks and patios look beautiful again. Priced by the job, ask about package deals. I also have experience in deck building and design, in addition to deck refinishing. A home looks really great with a deck refinished. I would be happy to advise and assist you on this. Please call me. Whatever project you have in mind, I shall exceed your expectations and go the "extra mile" to give you a job well done and done correctly. My honest work ethic. I have great references from great customers! It is my intention to win your recommendation that is why I believe that I am your best choice. Something about myself: I grew up in Hawaii and competed in surfing professionally. I am college educated and married to a wonderful woman (saucy, not too spicy) and have been blessed with two adorable little girls. I am also a professional mountain guide leading climbing expeditions to the Himalayas and Andes. I am currently attending classes to obtain my EMT certification. Make an experienced call. Please feel welcome to call me, and I look forward to assisting you. Mahalo, Matthew Jnana I service Seattle and the eastside (Redmond, Woodinville, Duvall, Sammamish, Issaquah)

I answered an ad placed on Craigslist by Aloha and the call was promptly returned by Matthew (the owner). A short while later he met me at the job location and I showed him the yard cleanup work I need done. He seemed knowledgeable and everything went well. We agreed on a price and he said he could start 2-days later and should be finished the following day. I made a HUGE mistake in giving him the deposit he asked for. Over 2 weeks have passed. He is not returning my calls or answering texts. He has called a couple of times with lame excuses and now nothing. DO NOT HIRE THIS THIEF!

Matthew Jnana at Aloha Landscaping cleaned up and trimmed our landscaping and added bark & gravel to our .3 acer lot before we put our house on the market. The work exceeded our expectations and the yard looks wonderful. After we paid the deposit, he started the job a day later than he said he would. In the end he came through with flying colors by finishing on time within budget. We couldn't have asked for more. He and his crew were hard-working, helpful and knowledgeable.

Matthew / Jnana is unprofessional, does not honor his time commitments, and, after getting paid, did not return to remove the logs that were still on the ground after he cut down a large Sweet Gum tree in my front yard. He did not return phone calls or attempts to reach him by email. I seriously do hope nothing happened to him and that he's not hurt or in jail, otherwise I will never deal with him again

Yep. One of the reasons that Matthew Jnana, aka Matthew Thometz didn't return to my home to finish his work after I paid him: Soon after I paid him, he was arrested and thrown in jail for a DWI/DUI + driving on a suspended license + Violating the requirement that any Vehicle he drives has an Interlock device (basically a breathalizer that is connected to the ignition to prevent drunks from driving drunk). http://www.jailbase.com/en/arrested/wa-kc/2013-04-25/matthew-joseph-thometz-213011152

One star is not even deserved Matthew Jnana is not his real name Matthew Thometz is his real name. He did NOT grow up in HI, he is not a professional sufer, he had not climb the Himalayas AND there is no way he can be a EMT with his back ground. He dose not have a degree in landscape design. The only experience is do the yard work at our parents home when he was young. Matthew grew up in Bellevue, he went to ODay high school Went to college but never graduated. He has a problem with alcohol and drugs. PLEASE do not give him money before the work is done PLEASE...PLEASE I beg you do not give him money Until all work is done.... He is a scammer
