We liked Yard Post. Their price may be a little high.

We have used The Yard for many years for lawn and shrub maintenance as well as chemical service.  They have always answered questions about what needs to be done and have addressed any issues quickly and completely.

He is very responsive and very reliable. Despite many landscapers contacting me over the years, I have remained with him. I have been using their services since 1988. They are competitively priced. The owner is well educated and knowledgable in his trade.

They did a fine job. They are very easy to work with. If I need something extra done they will take care of it.

The cost depends on what you want them to do. The beauty of working with Yard Post is that you can change what you want from week to week or month to month i.e. in the summer they come weekly, mowing glass, blowing, etc.  In the winter they come monthly, i.e. blowing leaves and other debris. Occasionally we will ask for additional services such as fertilizing the lawn or bushes, pruning, etc. You pay according to what you want done

I have been using them for two or three years. They do an excellent job. They are very responsive to any issues or problems I may have, and they take care of them right away.

They sent out a nice young lady initially to look over the job and estimate the ongoing cost. And she came back once when I requested some ideas. But I'm not sure I ever received them. But other than that, the account appeared to be pretty much on auto pilot. I switched to a young man trying to survive a period of unemployment - but he has returned to work so I will be looking for a replacement. I would consider Yard Post again - though it would be somewhat by default. What's likely wrong is that I want more attention and enthusiasm than I am willing to pay for!!!

I really like that they do come out once a week, especially in the Fall because then our lawn is easier to maintain. They will do any small extra services at a charge.

I used Yard Post for landscaping & lawn maintenance. They provided very poor, substandard service, often charging for services that they did not perform. They tried to charge me for 84 bales of pine straw, when my property only required 48 bales. They often charged me for weed treatments & shrub disease/insect control that was not performed, charged for 3-gallon plants, when they only put in 1-gallon plants. Spent nearly $2000 on a new flower bed, almost half of the plants died and Yard Post refused to honor their warranty. They raised their prices without notifying me. The owner was often very defensive and rude. Yard Post has provided some of the most horrible customer service I have ever encountered. Overall, my experience with Yard Post was very costly and very disappointing. I would not recommend this company to anyone.

Greg Peters sent me an estimate with options to choose from. I discussed the options over the phone and asked him to make a few changes. He did and, before I knew it, his crew was at my house. The did the work faster than I anticipated and it looks great.

Andre Theriot was wonderful to work with. He collaborated with me on several iterations of drawings, until we had just the right plan for our backyard. It was a bit tricky and somewhat unusual, because it was an area in front of a tennis court. Andre met me at a couple of nurseries to discuss and select plantings, as well as hardscape materials. His team was careful and thorough in both their demolition of the existing landscape and installation of the new. I would not hesitate to call on Andre and the Yard Post again!

Our backyard is beautiful! The Yard Post was a dream to work with- they treated us like family and cared for our yard like it was their own. We highly recommend the Yard Post. The yard post also does the spraying of our grass and they are fantastic.
