They came to my house because they were doing my neighbor's lawn. They were approaching me so I used them. They have the service for a year so they just drop the invoice off on the door. I am not very happy with the lawn, but there could be other problems. Basically they signed me up and I don't think they were very proactive, they just do their service. They do just the regular spray for $45 every time. Aeration was $95 and was one time a year. They recommended the aeration at the beginning of the year. They treat 8 times a year. Their price was comparable to my other service provider but what they were selling me were all these benefits like the chemicals they use. It is about the same price of everyone I quoted. The lawn was not improving or anything better than the previous service provider. I did not talk with them that much. The last time I asked them some questions and they said they would send some people, but they didn't. I did not really have any appointments; they just came in whenever and left the bill on the door. I think they are professional, but I think their salespeople exaggerated some things about their service.

We had an annual contract with this company. We were looking for an alternative to the company we had used for 8 years. Our prior company was hit and miss because they did not do the back yard if the dogs were out however, they would only give us 12 hours?notice of when they were coming. My first question to Weed Man, Palmetto,GA, is, are your service reps afraid of little dogs (Chihuahuas)? They stated that these type dogs, if friendly, would not create a problem. I assured them the dogs were friendly. When proposing the service, which was less expensive by $3.00 per treatment from the previous company?s treatments, the rep told me that he would recommend additional treatments (3) which would make my yard come back stronger and greener. I asked him if he was so sure why not provide the additional treatments and if it works I will pay for the three additional treatments and he stated he could do this. Long story short, the way it worked is they billed me for these first and then told me if it did not work they would retreat but could not credit the service fee to me. This was totally different them what was discussed and understood on my part and I reluctantly paid. In September 2015 they provided this final, additional treatment, and a regular treatment in November 2015. When I received the bill, in December, and saw that I was past due for September I called and discussed with them the understanding the rep and I discussed. I was still upset about paying for these additional services. They informed me that I needed to talk with the rep that I discussed the service with. This took a couple of weeks for him to call back. The result of this back and forth issue wound up having me pay for both the September and November service in early January. Although I did inform the rep if my yard did not come back stronger and greener I would be calling them.
It is now April 7, 2016 and I noticed my yard not looking stronger and greener, rather worse than when the previous company serviced it. I called and asked when they were there last and they told me November and that since I had a past due amount the service contract was canceled. I told them I paid this in early January. When they looked up the account and realized that I had paid she said it must have been an oversight and that I had missed one service and the next one was due (so almost 2).
I was upset and at their excuse for dropping my service. They on the other hand had a "oh well" attitude and made me feel like a deadbeat. Like if I hadn't not been a late pay this would have never happened. I believe there sales rep suckered me into these additional treatments without having the authority to stand behind his word.
I asked the office secretary to have the manager contact me and she said she would. I did not hear from him so I am assuming they don't want my business. Based on the actions of this vendor if they don't honor their word and services why are they allowed to be on Angie's List? I am an independent business owner just like Weed Man of Palmetto, GA. The difference between my business and this one is we honor the words spoken to our customers no matter what employee speaks them. Our
employees know what to and what not to promise to customers. It is not about making the sale rather what will gain the customer?s loyalty and long term relationship.
Based on the outcome of this relationship over the past year I would caution anyone contemplating a service relationship with Weed Man of Palmetto, GA or Weed Man anywhere as it would appear the parent corporation is OK with these sales and service tactics.
Weed Man, Palmetto, GA, I have copied and will post to other sites as well as I felt this message should be available to all potential customers no matter where they search on the web.

The 1st & 2nd application were good; I didn't have a lot of weeds afterwards. But, after the 3rd application I had a lot of weeds all over my yard. So we bought some Scott's weed & feed and applied it ourselves. After one application, my weeds were gone.
Response from Weed Man
"Thank you for taking the time to let us know how we are doing. I'm sorry you did not see results from your final application. However, I'm not showing in our records that you requested a retreat. There are a variety of factors that can affect weed control, such as weather, mowing, etc. Sometimes these factors have a negative affect and an application may not "take" as well as it should. This is why we offer unlimited, free retreats. As you will see in our literature, we encourage customers to simply give us a call anytime they aren't seeing results. That way we can come out and perform a retreat at no additional charge. Please feel free to call the office if we can be of future service. Thank you again for your business and your feedback."

"Mr, Upon some research, I found that you were actually serviced by another Weed Man franchise, and not our Coweta-Fayette franchise. Weed Man is a network of locally owned and operated franchises, each run independently within a given territory. Your address is located in the Roswell office's territory. I am sorry that you have had a negative experience, and encourage you to contact them regarding your concerns so that they have the opportunity to make things right. We sincerely hope your problem is resolved. Rachael McFarlin Weed Man Coweta-Fayette"

They are not complete with the three yet, but everything is going as it should.
For the Big Deal the pricing was really good. Normally the price is better than average.
I had a little problem and they took care of it no problem. They come when they're due. I didn't have any problem at all with their professionalism.

They did a good job. There was some reason why they were hard to get out but they did it.
Response from Weed Man
"Thank you for taking the time to let us know that you were pleased with your service. I do apologize that you felt we were hard to get out. My records show that your first treatment was completed four days after your original lawn analysis, and that we returned for your second treatment in 8 weeks. This is standard time frame, and I apologize if that wasn't communicated properly to you. I am glad to hear that otherwise, everything was satisfactory. Please let us know if we may help you with anything else! Thank you again for your business."

The deal was purchased and within 48 hours, a Weed Man technician was out in my yard measuring and assessing what type lawn/turf I had in order to best prepare for the fertilizer application and weed control. 48 hours after that, the technician came to do the actual spraying. I was home, so he explained what he was doing. The next two visits were as good as the first.
I also received great customer service on any phone calls/e-mails/questions I had.

I'm frankly surprised that these guys don't have more reviews because they have brought our lawn from a weed-infested, bare-spotted, sparse landscape to one we barely recognize as ours. We have been using their services for approximately one year, and they have really done a fantastic job our bringing our yard up to its full potential. The weeds are virtually eliminated, and the grass has been brought to its best. Each time we have called with questions, the team at Weed-Man has been very responsive and courteous.
Stewart did our consultation, and he is very knowledgeable and honest. He thoroughly explained to us what he could and could not fix in our yard, and he has been dead-on. We will gladly be loyal customers as long as they continue the great work!

The treatment was ineffective.
Response from Weed Man
"Dear [member name removed], I am sorry to hear that you were not happy with the outcome of your service. Because customer satisfaction is so important to us, I took some time to discuss your account with our Sales Manager and Field Manager so that I could get a better idea of what may have gone wrong. First, I can tell you that while we do sell the $29 treatment as a single service, we communicate to all of our customers that this is meant as an initial treatment at a discounted price, in the hopes that you will choose our continuous service. The treatment will kill weeds within a few weeks of application, but it takes regular treatments over a period of time to rid your lawn of weeds completely. This is why our basic program consists of 7 treatments per year, including pre and post emergent weed control and slow release granular fertilizer. This is communicated to all of our customers prior to initial treatment. I do show a note on your account, however, stating that we were unable to contact you. So I apologize if that was not communicated effectively to you. Please know that we go to great lengths to use top quality products and to provide one of the best lawn maintenance programs in the business. If at any time a customer is not happy with their results, we will come and do a retreat for free. This is outlined in the paperwork that we leave hanging on the door following your treatment. Again, I apologize that you were less than pleased with your results, and wish you would have called us in June to give us the opportunity to correct the situation. Sincerely, Rachael McFarlin Weed Man Coweta-Fayette"
