TruGreen Lawn Care - 5096

I have used TruGreen to weed & feed with few problems. I contracted with them to core-aerate my lawn and seed shady spots with fescue. They seeded it with tall fescue and some other type of grass that grows at a different rate so the lawn always looked uneven. Then they showed up a few weeks later to aerate the newly-seeded lawn (aerate first, seed later, duh!). I declined. Then they showed up a week later & almost applied pre-emergent on the newly-seeded lawn. Lucky I was there to stop them. Double duh! I no longer trusted them so I seeded sunny spots with Bermuda myself. They came unannounced for routine weed & feed shortly thereafter and applied pre & post emergent on my new Bermuda seedlings, killing it. They were supposed to call me before coming out. They offered to re-seed the Bermuda but I no longer trusted them. I cancelled my service. Nice people but poor co-ordination and communication. Weed & feed: $62 per application. Aerate: $159. Seeding: $180.

It went okay. I will use them again.

We had a fungus on the lawn and would not take care of it. They were so good until we got that fungus. I would not recommend them.

My yard is good, they do a good job.

I started using them about a year and a half ago.  They were expensive and that's why I stopped using them.  Their quality was really good because the chemicals that they put down stopped the weeds.  As soon as I stopped using them I saw the weeds coming up again.  Their product was good.  Their professionalism was a little off because they used to leave the junk on.  The green stuff that they sprayed down would be on all over my carpeting.  They were on time all the time.  What they did was good.

They have done an okay job.  They are not as good as they could be.  They missed the weed that hid the grass, but other that, they did a pretty good job.  They fertilized it before the rains which I appreciate, but it would have been nice if they would have swept the side walk and the driveway because it holds on to the cement.  I would rate them fair.  My son is okay with them, but I am not.
