"This company is a RIP OFF....I have been stupid enough to give them a chance for 3 years and they continued to DISAPPOINT!! The techs sit in their trucks clocking time spent on the service as I watch them from my house. They do my front and back yard treatment in LESS than 3 min.!! This summer I called them NUMEROUS times to complain and NO ONE ever returned my calls (at least 5)!! DO NOT waste your money like I did....my lawn looks the worse it has ever looked...thanks to their CRAPPY service."

"This company is very pushy to get you to sign up. After that, it is up to you to make all contact with them. After about 3 weeks I had to reach out to them to schedule. We had wanted all 3 things done at the same time since we have dogs and wanted to get it done at the same time. When they did come out, they did not have the equipment to treat for army worms. Then we had to reschedule for that at a later date. I emailed the company on Oct 18th and explained I was not seeing any new growth in the bare spots. I even loosened the soil with a garden rack the day before they reseeded. They replied to the email and said they would open a free service call ticket to evaluate the reseeding. Guess what...haven't heard a word from them 3 weeks later!"

"The original provider of services was Turfman who retired this year and sold the business to Experigreen. Turfman was great. The gentlemen who services our lawn is Dave and Dave is great. Since Experigreen has taken over I had two issues. First, the continue to charge me sales tax and note on each invoice that it is the Hamilton County tax rate. We live in Clermont County. I advised them of this when they first took over the business from Turfman. They said they would fix it. Most recent invoice still has Hamilton County as the tax rate. Because our zip code covers two counties, it is not intelligent enough to handle different taxing districts in the same zip. They told me they would adjust the amount they charge me, but will not change it to Clermont Count. So Clermont County is NOT getting the tax money for their portion of the state sales tax. In my mind they are thus committing tax fraud. They blew me off on this issue. I did call the State of Ohio Department of Taxation to report this and they said they would open an investigation. Second issue, I should have asked them in advance the cost of grub prevention. Most lawn care companies I talked to charge around the same cost as the regular lawn service applications. Experigreen charged me about $250 for this service. I paid it as I authorized it. I should have asked what the cost was first. Called them and told them no more grub prevention. I will either do it myself or hire another company. I am starting to look for another company now who can charge the correct tax rates and who is more reasonable on pricing grub prevention. Hate to lose Dave, it is not his fault that the new owners are not that concerned about their customers."

Lawn Fertilization and Treatment questions, answered by experts

Most businesses schedule services weekly or biweekly to maintain a professional appearance and healthy lawn.

One of the most effective ways to improve lawn absorption is to learn how to aerate your lawn. This is a process where you poke tiny holes all throughout it to break up tough soil and sediment, creating pathways for sunlight, water, air, and nutrients to seep into the plant’s roots. In turn, it promotes stronger root systems, making your lawn or plants less susceptible to pests and disease. Ideally, you’ll want to aerate your lawn at least once per year during the growing season—think late summer to early fall. 

Despite being moderately high-maintenance, St. Augustine grass is popular for several reasons. The biggest properties that make this grass a winner for southeastern lawns include its salt, heat, humidity, and shade tolerance. This grass species is excellent for coastal regions with high humidity, mild winters, and salty skies. It’s also easy to establish in yards.

If you apply too much fertilizer to your grass, it can take about three weeks to recover. If you still have dead patches after three weeks, it might be time to remove the dead grass and overseed the affected area. Since overfertilizing can also cause problems with fungus, leading to further damage to the grass, monitor your grass color and growth for one month after over fertilizing.

They regularly monitor health, applying preventative fungicides and providing customized care to reduce disease risks.
