Serving the North West Metro area for all of you lawn and yard needs since 2008!

"I never leave poor reviews, however, I was very disappointed in the lack of integrity and communication provided by 5 star lawn service. For the past seven years, we had hired another small business for annual leaf removal and continued to be a loyal customer due to the excellent service they provided. In fall 2022, we were informed that our previous company was acquired by 5 star lawn service and therefore, we transitioned our business to them. We were then assured they would fit us into their schedule. The fall came and went, and they did not show up, nor communicate with us that they were not able to make it work. Once it snowed, it was too late to contact another company. Then in May 2023, 5 star service reached back out stating they were unable to make it in the fall, and offered to come in the spring instead, to which I agreed. After the service, they sent me an invoice for twice the amount of our annual clean up stating “Price increases if a Fall Cleanup was not preformed”. They did not inform me upfront that the rate would change due to more leaves needing to being collected in the spring as they did not perform the service in fall. I attempted several times to contact them regarding the price increase, including an email the same day the first bill was issued, but rather than responding, they continued to issue me “late fees”. Once I was finally able to get ahold of them, they agreed to remove the late fees due to their lack of response, but did not apologize or take accountability for their lack of communication regarding not showing up in the fall and/or informing me upfront regarding price increases due to the acquisition and the additional leaves needing to be removed. I ended up paying the full price, but will not be using their services again."

Mulch and Topsoil questions, answered by experts

Mulch is best used in garden beds and yards, not in your driveway as pothole filler. It is meant to stimulate plant growth. Upon repeated pressure, it turns into compost, which also serves as fertilizer for weeds to take over. The roots will then break into your driveway, leading to more material loss and structural collapses.

Yes, pea gravel is good for driveways as long as your driveway isn’t built on a hill or any type of slope where it can slide. It’ll settle on a flat surface and create a suitable driveway over time, though some spreading initially will take place. If you're wondering how to make a gravel driveway in a high-rainfall area, using pea gravel could help you to cut down on costs needed for extra drainage solutions.

If you like the look of mulch in your plant beds, be aware that it can attract a variety of pests, including termites. To avoid wood-to-foundation contact, leave a one-foot barrier around your house and fill it in with rocks or gravel, starting mulch past that barrier and working it outward into your plant beds. 

To take advantage of any deals on ordering gravel in bulk, it can also be beneficial in the long run to work on other gravel projects you plan to complete someday. These may include filling in a gravel driveway, building a patio, constructing a fire pit area , planning a garden walkway, or using stone instead of mulch in your flower beds.

Rocks are less likely to attract snakes and other critters because their prey (termites, ticks, and other insects) don’t usually inhabit this environment. However, if you have placed together rocks with large spaces in between or near a source of water, you may find a snake or an occasional chipmunk seeking shelter.
