Get matched with top lawn fertilization and treatment specialists in Festus, MO

"The pro has been servicing our Mclean property quite well for a couple of years. Our lawn looks good and we are satisfied with the service. The customer service is sometimes underwhelming but it gets the job done at a reasonable cost which is really becoming harder by the day to get."

"We contracted with Basile Landscaping & Lawncare, LLC (Basile) in August 2017 for work that was completed in November 2017. Work included a fire pit patio, consisting of patio pavers, rock stairs, and two small patio walls (approx. 30” tall at tallest point). Also included in the work was a small hot tub concrete pad, a small flagstone walkway, and irrigation repairs related to work performed. Total cost $22,830.00. Within a year of install, the patio walls, which were made out of natural stone and dry set, began caving in due to pressure from surrounding soil compaction. While we were able to reset the stones initially, the problem has gotten worse and now requires repair. We reached out to Basile in Oct. 2023 to get an estimate on repair costs with the hope that they would stand behind the workmanship. While we were not expecting the repairs to free, we did expect a fair price, since the rock walls did not hold up as promised. The rock walls should have been set in adhesive to ensure they would hold up. Jim Thomas from Basile provided us with a bid that totaled $3,500 to fix the walls installed by his company. We were told the bid reflected a $300 discount, since Basile did the initial install. Materials for the repair would be limited to polymeric sealant, which should have been used on the initial install, and repairs to the yard around the walls requiring work. We tried to negotiate a fair price for the repairs, since material costs would be less than $500, but Mr. Thomas would not negotiate a fair price to fix the poor installation provided by his company. In short, if you are looking for a company that does quality work at a fair price and stands behind the work performed, you may want to contract with a different company."

"Really well. The workers were fast and they did a great job. After the job some plants needed to be replaced from their 1 year warranty and they replaced appropriately."

"Showed up when said they would. Power washed and waterproofed my deck. Cleaned my gutters. Very reasonable price. Thought they did an excellent job. Made sure everything was cleaned up before they left. I would hire them again."

"I contracted with Green Thumb to level a spot in my yard to install an above ground pool. I have since been warned by multiple experienced landscapers and a landscape architect that their leveling job is not fit for its intended purpose, as it simply cannot be guaranteed to to support the weight of the pool without a retaining wall to support the portion of the yard they built up above grade to achieve level. I am now hiring another company to come in and fix their unprofessional, unskilled work as it is clear after talking to them that they are either not knowledgeable enough to recognize the blatantly obvious issue or they simply do not care. I will pay them because I always keep my end of a deal even if I do not believe they have kept theirs, but my advice to others is to avoid this company at all costs. Update: Originally I left this review on their facebook page. Apparently it must have lowered their overall rating on facebook to a level below the owner's liking because he immediately deleted every other negative review from his facebook page (there were numerous), artificially increasing the rating back up to an insanely deceptive 5 stars. So I decided to post the review to other outlets. I mean wow, you should have seen some of the pictures unhappy customers had posted on his facebook account before he deleted them all! In one particularly memorable photo, Green Thumb had planted a boxwood shrub directly into mulch (no soil) and left it half out of the ground, then when it died they refused to pay to replace it and plant it correctly. Seriously, don't work with this company."

"The 3 man crew were friendly and cleaned up all debris. One climber, 2 watchers and debris men. All trimming & dead wooding was done neatly. Within a week, after the job was complete, a 35 foot dead limb fell and nearly tore our screens on our patio room. The next storm a few weeks later took down another 35+ foot limb. Clearly, not all the dead wood was removed during the job. Reliable's price for the job was much more than the usual, but the owner impressed me with his knowledge. The crew said the job costs are so high because the owner is a member of several professional organizations and the overcharges pay for his dues.! Will not hire again."
