The only things I'm displeased with is that they have broken several portions of my sidewalk with their industrial mower and have never said anything to me about it (like I'm not suppose to notice). Also, the same mower covers the side of my home with blown debris and I believe the problem I now have with noseeum/midge bugs around my yard due to their machine since I never had this problem with either my previous lawn care provider nor when I mow the yard myself. Having to treat the areas affected now offsets the initial savings I originally had with this provider.

They are also responsible for mowing my Mom's lawn. They are new to my Mom's lawn and she is new to having a company do it. Their relationship began last spring; early spring. She has never been so happy and truthfully; the lawn has never looked so good. Again, Chris listened to my mother's concerns and her desires for her lawn and she has no complaints. They come on schedule, do their work, always neat, clean, courteous and professional and it's not an easy lawn to manage. My mom has chickens running all over the yard and there is a goat on the property. The workers are very considerate of the chickens and the goat has gotten used to them ! I would highly recommend them; as a matter of fact I have, and the folks that have used them are equally as pleased.

Scheduling the work to proceed took longer than expected, but as it was late spring, the delays were acceptable. The employees that performed the work were friendly and performed quality work. The major complaints with this landscaper is the follow-through. My wife and I initially watered the lawn via two garden hoses (approx. 1 hour per night) before we paid to have a sprinkler system installed (different contractor). The grass was not growing in well for 80% of the yard, but the weeds were rampant. Several neighbors indicated that they have never seen new grass seed grow in with that density of weeds. A call to the landscaper was of no help either; they indicated that it was our fault for not watering enough. That was the only explanation they could give us (without coming out to look at the yard). We asked that they reseed (the contract said that they would reseed any bare spots), but the soonest that they indicated that they would come out was September (>1 month away). My wife and I took it upon ourselves to re-mediate our lawn ourselves and from our own pocket. We have pulled approximately 500+ lbs. of weeds over the course of 1 month, and have reseeded the lawn using seed we bought at Home Depot. The lawn is finally starting to look acceptable, but with no thanks to Bill's. For the amount we spent on our landscaping, we would have liked to have seen better customer service and support. With how quickly the weeds have taken over our lawn, waiting over a month to reseed would be ludicrous. By the time the reseeding would take place, the lawn would likely be overrun by weeds again. Conclusion: Bill's offers very reasonably priced lawn cuts, but I would avoid them for landscape design work. There are bound to be other landscapers out there that offer better customer service after the work is complete.

Lawn Care reviews from real Angi homeowners in Alpha, NJ
American Landscape LLC came out on the day they responded to my inquiry. I was pleasantly surprised because it is was a holiday weekend. Two workers came to do the lawn cut and trim and were very polite and professional. Afterwards I received a call asking me how the job was and if I was...

Joe and his guys have been caring for my lawn for years. They always do a wonderful job with skill and integrity. They pay attention to details or requests and really care and take pride in always doing a great job.
Most things went well but communication wasn't great. That was a problem because we don't stay at the home full time. The lawn suffered as a result and each year it was less and less healthy. I would hire them again if I knew I would be present to monitor things they overlooked or ignored.

We used someone else for years. Lawn didn't seem to be improving, so we switched. I feel the lawn has made solid progress this year. We're pleased, and we'll be using Shannon again next year.

Lawn Care Plus was one of only a few who showed up to give me an estimate as my property is small (less than a quarter-acre). The rates are very reasonable and they are always prompt and punctual as clockwork. Their two-man crew can knock off mowing and trimming well within a half-hour. The...

"Zero stars if it were possible. Harry M came to my home and quoted me 200 dollars and cash was the only payment option he would accept. He came that Saturday and did a horrible job. He used my mower and it’s not working properly now. He didn’t have a working weed wacker and asked for my personal one. He left so many areas undone and I he did report he would come back to finish the job. This never happened; he kept saying he had me scheduled but forgot to tell me. A crew was supposed to come two Saturdays ago and this never happened. He does not respond to text messages. Most importantly, he asked to come to my house to BBQ and to date me. I have text messages to prove this. Even after I declined, he didn’t not understand no after being told several times. There’s a review on another site that doesn’t remove negative feedback and he called that person cursing them out and verbally threatening them. If he does this to me, I will immediately press charges. I’m reporting this fraud anywhere I can until I get my money back from this fraud."

"Nick and his crew were AMAZING! They were professional, polite, and clean. Nick was insightful and instantly came up with a concept design and plan. They installed a yard drainage system, created a front walkway with pavers and steps, regraded our whole property, added mulch beds, added top soil and seeded with hay for a new lawn. They worked fast and had the entire project finished in a week’s time. Highly recommend!"

Lawn Care questions, answered by experts
Always do a poop sweep before mowing your lawn. Running your mower over dog waste can be messy, unsanitary, and smelly, and it can spread the poop to other parts of your lawn. Plus, you won’t be able to get it out of the grass (or the mower blades) easily.
St. Augustine grass grows fast thanks to its dense mat-like structure and vigorous root system. If you've laid St. Augustine sod, it'll put down roots, get itself established, and start to spread in 14 days.
In most cases, it is worth paying for professional lawn care. DIY lawn maintenance is possible, but it can get extremely time-consuming, especially to make your property look well-maintained. Not only is lawn maintenance time-intensive, but it can also get expensive, even to DIY, especially considering the cost of fuel and maintenance for your lawn care tools. Professional lawn care services average around $100 per service, making it a relatively inexpensive investment, especially for how much time it saves you.
Ticks prefer tall grass and seek out shady and moist areas. So, in some instances a no-mow lawn may increase tick population in your yard. This scenario is not ideal if you spend lots of time in your yard or if you have pets. If you spray pesticide then this can also harm the pollinators. However, you can make a DIY tick killer with more natural ingredients to avoid using toxic chemicals.
Both zoysia grass and bermuda grass are somewhat similar to St. Augustine because they’re all warm-season grasses. Beyond that, most grass types have unique properties that set them apart. Zoysia grass costs twice the price of St. Augustine grass on average and it has thinner blades and a deeper green appearance. Bermuda grass, compared to St. Augustine, has much thinner blades, is softer to the touch, and has a higher tolerance for colder weather.
