Great. I've used this company for three years and any problem is taken care of quickly. One thing to keep in mind, is that it takes time to get your yard in the shape you want. If you do what they advise, whether it's watering, mowing correctly, your yard will do well. .
Description of Work: Yard maintained. Their service is set up for once a month, which in Florida is absolutely necessary. The same person comes every time, which is a big plus because he knows my lawn's needs. I had a big spare spot in our front yard and couldn't get grass to grow there. Dave would give it special attention, and now it's covered over and looks great.

Some yard maintenance companies schedule their services during the months it is needed, however, Colonial Pest comes every month...so much of what you pay for is a re-treatment of the previous month in which they do not adequately do their job. For instance, if they spray for weeds in November and nothing takes effect, ie, the weeds are worse in Dec, then you will pay for the re-treatment. They came highly recommended, but their service has steadily declined so that the person who recommended them is also looking for a new service.They seem to base their prices on what they think you can afford and not the size of the yard. They come and leave a bill on the door so I asked that they knock prior to performing the service. He knocked afterward and handed me a bill. I am fairly sure that they only provide service in the front yard as I have never seen the service tech in the side or backyard. I have called and written to them on several occasions, but they do not take corrective action.
Description of Work: Provide on a monthly basis fertilization, weed and pest control for lawn and shrubs Please note that the cost is per month and does not reflect complete treatments each month, just what they determine is necessary

Keep up outstanding services. Gives my lawn and shrubbery complete care as needed. Good lawn care is difficult to find. Reliability is unheard of. Everyone in Florida who can't find a job tries lawn care. Good reliable people at a reasonable price are unheard of. Have used for 5 years with no problem. Called once for infestation in bush. Came out same day to correct problem. If you want worry-free lawn care, this is the firm. Small firm and owner. Does most of work.
Description of Work: Sprayed yard and all trees and shrubs. Front, sides and rear.
