Response from LawnTech
"I have reviewed our records related to this review and it appears that Mr. [Members Name] may not be accurately remembering our bid to him. We did provide a legitimate bid to Mr. [Members Name] on 5/1/14 for the amount of $950.00 for the large spruce tree removal and not the $ 1400.00 he stated. We also gave a bid to remove the stump $ 100.00. Our Angie's List discount offer was also different than Mr. [Members Name] stated. We regularly monitor the competitiveness of our bids and unlike many contractors provide experienced ISA Certified Arborists to perform the work. I believe Mr. [Members Name] should review and correct his figures in his review. We strive to provide the very best work in the industry. The discount offered through Angie's was legitimate and the original bid amount was not influenced by the discount."

I contacted four providers for bids. One never responded at all. Three of them made appointments and Lawntech was the only one who did as promised and came to give us a bid. I even called the other two again and left messages for them - nothing!!!
Justin was wonderful. Our system was even installed weeks earlier than we had expected and the price was exactly as we agreed to. Very professional service and everything works great. Their customer service and responsiveness are the best.

They do a good job. Weeds are decreasing and the lawn stays green. They spray the lawn and leave the bill in the door. They always call to make sure when they plan to come is a good time for you.

Great product and service.  Love the difference it made in the lawn.  We stopped when we didn't have the money but will do it again when we can.

Good lawn service. Did come out and respray when requested for weed control. Only minor issue is they need to come out earlier in spring before the weeds start to take off. Will use them again next year.

Tried to have the head arborist out to help with my blue spruce. He did come out but was never interested enough to follow through. This year finally dug out spruce. I had called a couple of times with no change in the response I got. He just never tried to solve problem.
Response from LawnTech
"Our records show that a visit was requested on 5/26/2010 regarding the spruce tree in the backyard. Our arborist visited within 1 day of the request and found the tree was stressed due to drought that was very prevalent at the time as well as showed signs of girdling roots and spruce gall. Treatment for the spruce gall was recommended. Notes were left with the customer with these observations and they were explained at the time of the visit. No services were purchased and there was no charge at all for this visit."

We really like that Lawntech comes on a regular basis. Though it would be nice to know when they are coming so we can mow the lawn if it needs it to get the maximum treatment.
The weed control looks like it's working pretty well. We haven't finished treatments yet. We haven't seen an improvement in the quality of our lawn, which is what we were looking for. It's been maitained well, but that's about it.
We'll use them one more time next year to see if they can do what we want, but if it's the same as it is this year so far we won't.
The arborist that came out was pretty good, but was incorrect on the species of one of our trees. I don't know if it really makes a difference since we just got the lawn and Spruce treatments, but you'd think the arborist would know their trees.

In the past years, the service was great (A+).  This year they split the spraying.  They sprayed the blue spruce tree in the front yard, but not my fruit trees in the back.  I had prepaid for the service, so it was a good thing I happened to be home and noticed he didn't go in the backyard.   So I called and asked about the trees in the back, they sent the service person back and he told me that he came back to check for other fir/spruce trees in the backyard, which there weren't any.  I asked about my fruit trees and he said it took a different spray and some would be back another time.  I called Lawn Tech later to find out when and was told either the end of the week (June 28) or the beginning of the following week.  No one came and I called again during the week of July 8.  I talked to a different person and was told that he should have sprayed all the trees at the same time, they use the same spray on fruit trees, and she would get someone back out.  I finally got the trees in the back sprayed today.  Although I wasn't home at the time, they left a copy of the service call in the door.
I have used Lawn Tech for several years for tree spraying, pruning, and tree removal.  Their service, quality of work, and price has always been top notch.  In fact I've recommended Lawn Tech to several people. I hope this year is just an anomaly.   Unfortunately, the spraying came too late to take care of the western cherry tree fruit fly.  Last year, Lawn Tech's timing was perfect.  I had very few cherries with the worms.  The person last year had two different tanks and he switched tanks to spray the fruit trees.  So now I'm not sure whether or not it takes two different sprays to handle scale on firs versus fruit trees.
I do plan to use Lawn Tech for spraying my trees next year.  However, I will make sure that my trees will be sprayed at the same time.  I also plan to make sure I am home when it happens.  If I wasn't home this year, I would have never known that the trees in the backyard weren't sprayed.  My trust in the Lawn Tech for spraying trees took a hit this year.

Begin by assessing your needs and providing recommendation for applications.  Willing to discuss and consider your desires and needs.  Not pushing you into something you don't believe you need or want.  Responsive to problems that may come up during the year.

I have been using them for about 3 years. I recommend them because it helps your lawn look healthy. They call us to let us know we are due every year for treatment. They come and service the lawn and leave a flag in the yard and leave a note on the door once finished. This is helpful because they recommend not to water the lawn 24 hours before treatment.

I have been a customer of LawnTech for quite some time, spent a lot of money with them and I would advise people to look elsewhere.  I give people a few chances, and gave LawnTech far too many chances.  1. They did a terrible job at lawn patch work (after failing to have us settle the soil before putting in the hydroseed), which I forgave them for.  They have called me three separate times to tell me they will be coming out the next day to fertilize.  (No shows on every occasion!).  Their sales guy Justin scheduled me to come and put in flower beds.  Again, a no show!  I called Justin and he said they got some higher paying jobs coming in and had to move me (without even calling me).  I thought it was just Justin's incompetence, so I called LawnTech and asked to speak with the owner.  I left a detailed message, and he never called me back.  Then I get a call from a guy named Kerry.  I told him the situation and he promised he would take care of it and though nobody else called me back, he would definitely call me back and schedule a visit to come put in my flower beds.  Nope, not a call from him ever.  Two days later though, I got a call from a lady at LawnTech, who told me they were coming out to fertilize.  I asked her if Kerry was going to call me, she said she had no idea that he had spoken to me.  Seriously, what an incompetent company.  They obviously don't care about their customers unless you meet a certain dollar amount.  I have paid every invoice they have sent.  I told Kerry I just want the work done, but they just keep promising to come out and they never do!  I am not happy with them.  They are the worst local company I have ever dealt with and they have wasted my time because now I am going to have to wait until next spring to find someone else who wants the work.  Save yourself the time and hassle and do not use LawnTech for any services!  This is the only way I can think of to get their attention, hopefully they will start caring.

They always followed my instructions to the letter re: calling ahead a day to allow me to lock my dogs up and were always punctual. On one occasion there was a problem with a tree being oversprayed with a pesticide and they promptly sent out their arborist to assess the situation (the tree was saved).

They come 4 times a year.  They come in the Spring, 2 times in the Summer, and once in the Fall.  They also do a year round service where they give you a discount.  If you get 3 treatments, you get one free.  It is simple, they do a pretty good job, they have the right equipment with a big truck with a tank on it, it is clean, and I see a dramatic reduction of spiders in my house in the winter.  When they are finished, they put flags in your yard indicating they've been there.  I'm pretty satisfied.  It is pretty easy to call the office if you have a billing problem and they are friendly.  I give them high ratings and will continue to use them in the future.

They are going to come out this spring in about fifteen days.  They spray all our trees on two acres.  What really stands out the most is that they've been coming around and doing the trees.  One day I looked back all the seven trees but the pine tree was twenty five foot taller.  They've been fertilizing it every year for the last four years.  Their price is fair.  The quality is excellent.  They have always been there the day they said they were going to be there.
