Landscape Yard or Garden Installation
The lawn service was very consistent initially . As time went on they began to show up inconsistently. I understand weather plays a factor in when they perform their services. This is why I asked them to call first before arriving so that I can have the rear gate open or to tell them not to come because I was out of town or simply not at home. Eventually they began not showing up for my services and still charging me the bi-weekly fee for services I did not receive. When I called to ask when they would do my service they told me that they had to drop me as a customer because I was causing them problems because when they would show up , unannounced, without calling ahead no one was home to unlock my back gate. The gate would be open if you would be consistent with your scheduled services for my home but since that is an inconvenience to your company I am treated as if I'm asking for too much. No one stopped the workers from cutting the front yard but because the back gate is locked you decided not to cut the front yard which you have access to. Many times the workers would arrive as seen on my security cameras but never ring my doorbell or call/text to inform me they were at me residence. The final complaint I have is the constant damage the workers did on bottom level of boards surrounding my home. I had to constantly remind the workers not to damage my property with the lawnmowers and trimmers but it kept happening. Overall when the services were performed they did a great job with my lawn. Unfortunately the customer service, the rude attitude displayed when asking them to call prior to their arrival because of their inconsistency and the damage to my home is why I give this company a overall score of 3 stars.
Response from Ground Control
"Thank you for taking the time to share your experience with us. We take all matters both small and large seriously to make sure our customers are satisfied at the best of our abilities. Resolving any matters dealing with concerns or quality will always be the number one priority with our staff and crew and we are sorry these issues were not met. We take pride knowing our crew will always strive to give their 100% best efforts every service and if not we hope we can deal with said issues in the best way we can. Every service falls around the same day of each week you are scheduled, with weather permitting it does, that way you can keep track of the day we will be there. Unfortunately, we cannot give you a specific time the crew will be there due to our high volume of customers and how our system works there is no ideal way for this to happen. We apologize for this inconvenience, but we hope our work ethics and our willingness to go above and beyond exceeds these minor issues."

They replaced two old sprinklers and added more to cover the rest of the yard. Very good work. The system is perfect and the crew was great to work with.

Sod Front Lawn: If you value time as well as money, I strongly recommend that you hire the team at Ground Control for your lawn needs. From estimate to cleanup, they are so thoroughly professional that I ask, "Why does every business not conduct their affairs in this manner."

Failed to complete project as agreed. After agreeing on an estimate, they continued to identify additional items not included in the original estimate. Requested fill dirt, final land grading, and rerouting gutters on 3 acres to prep for seeding. Repeatedly insisted I wanted usable land, and they assured me it would be prepped for seeding. It is far from it. Huge rocks and sticks remain all over the property and there are several uneven areas where pooling occurs when it rains. When questioned they become very argumentative, and demanded payment prior to completion. Although we were highly dissatisfied, to avoiding another confrontation we paid them. So basically we paid $4,550. for them to push some dirt around. Would not hire again, nor would we recommend them to anyone.
Response from Ground Control
"Hey Ms. Brandi this is Ben, I am sorry you feel this way about the work that was done. I believe the expectations would have been more clear if I could have met with you personally instead of your husband trying to explain what you wanted. The additional items that were added to the original estimate were 2-16 ton loads of rock that we talked about getting for you but your husband insisted that he could handle that himself. The rock was to be used to gain access to the yard at the far gate to avoid driving over the driveway with heavy equipment. When we showed up on the agreed start date there was a standard truck bed worth of rock (1 ton) in the area where we were planning to access the property, therefore we had no choice but to add rock. Seeding is very important to prevent erosion, especially after a grading job of this size and since the yard has yet to be seeded 4 months after the job has been completed I am sure there are ditches and pooling in the yard. I requested half of the payment after %75 of the work was complete because I talked to another contractor that had a bad experience doing work at this particular site. Again sorry you feel this way about the work that was done. Feel free to call and discuss solutions. 7068301857"

Sod Installation
My back yard was nearly all mud. Ground Control recommended the type of grass that would work best in my very shaded yard. They installed it in just a few days. It has been several months now and my back yard has been transformed from a muddy mess to an amazing, beautiful, green lawn.
