I had aeration and seeding done by Green Lawn and was very happy with the job they did. The technician Shafi was both personable and knowledgeable. Everything was done as instructed. I’ve used them for a number of years and would definitely recommend them.

Hello, this is my third or fourth year using Green Lawn and the results are unbelievable. I’ve used other lawn companies for three or four years with no results which caused me to switch to Green Lawn. I’m happy with the technician. He let me know what’s going on with the Lawn.
Description of Work: I had my yard and surrounding property sprayed for mosquitoes ticks, and fleas The price I quoted down below is for all three treatments. Your price could be less.

I used this company last season for mosquito spray from May through August, one spray a month. The service was fine but on the pricy end so I decided to use another company this season. One April morning I saw their technician starting to spray so I approached him and stopped the service. Since then, this company continues to harass me for payment for service I never ordered and was never completed. I spoke with multiple people and requested management to call but their unwillingness to take care of this invoice on their end is frustrating. In the last call this morning I was told we will continue to call on the automated system and will put you into collection. Do not use this company. There are more reasonable options out there.

We tried to do our own lawn fertilization after having a service for years. After two years, our long looked terrible. We hired green lawn fertilization and our lawn looks gorgeous already and we’ve only had three applications. Our service person, Jonte always let me know when he arrives so I can put the dogs inside the house. He’s very professional does an excellent job and always asks if I have any questions. What a great company and an amazing service.
Description of Work: Lawn treatment applications. We are on lawn treatment number three. Our long looks so much better than when they began. If we have any problems, I’ll always come back. It’s worth the money for their services as it makes a huge difference with the lawn.

I was extremely dissatisfied with this service. Always a different service provider, not always familiar with were to apply product. Weeds prevailed. And I am being charged for two applications this season even tho I had called to cancel. They claim they have no record of my cancellation. Automatic renewal. No one let me know someone was coming nor was a green lawn sign left to indicate someone had been there. Why would I use green lawn when I am already using trugreen, which is a far superior company and much easier to deal with. I feel that green lawn is a rip off.

I've done my own lawn treatments including lime and overseeding as well as pre-emptive crabgrass control for more than 20 years. However, a few years back it became apparent to me that a few weeds were not going away with my usual treatments. They continued to fester until I decided to act. Fortunately, Green Lawn was the first company i called. They've been very responsive to my needs especially in discussing the applications before doing any work as i typically request through their email service. Each year the lawn looks better and better! I cannot be more pleased with the end result provided by this company! The only caveat is that i am now retired and on a fixed income. When I started with them the treatments were around 40.00 each. Now, they've grown to almost 60.00 each. Very soon, i will not be able to continue because of the price increases. And THAT would be a darn shame!!
Description of Work: Green Lawn did 8 treatments throughout spring summer and fall to eliminate weeds and improve the look and volume of the lawn.

While the services performed were satisfactory, the total cost per service was excessive. Furthermore, when I inquired about aeration and overseeding, knowing that the germination requirements for grass require specific temperature ranges, I was shocked to find out lawn was aerated and seeded while we were still in the summer. Some of the seeds took to growing while others didn't. I expected the aeration and overseeding to take place in late September. Instead, it was done during the month of august during a relatively dry spell.

I have not used a lawn fertilization and maintenance program for a long time, but I decided to try Green Lawn. I had heard from others that they really do a nice job and now I can confirm on my own. The cost is not prohibitive. The staff and technicians are all very polite and professional. And the best part is my lawn looks amazing. Each treatment is a little over $40 and you only get what you ask for with no one pushing you to buy more.

I was very impressed. They come at the door, they knock, just they way you wanted it. And before they did it. They laid some seeds and cover all the bushes at the back. They did a really good job and I was really happy with them.

Fertilizer and lime applied at proper times with good results. Weed killer did an inadequate job and I wound up spraying myself with much better results. Overseeding was spotty at best and after 2 years of this service, the same bare spots are still bare. All instructions from the company were followed perfectly. We'll see what Spring brings and decide whether or not to keep these guys.

I do use green lawn for the seasonal fertilization and they do a good job compared to few Local names i used previously but I used them for Aeration and seeding after seeing $100 off advertisement but it is a disappointment. I shouldn't have used them from my first time experience but when I scheduled second time I mentioned issues I previously had and thought they will improve but the second time was a complete disappointment. I will never use them for aeration and seeding anymore as it is expensive even they say $100 discount which is just a gimmick as I found later more cheaper and better local service. It was total waste of money as the job was very badly done.

Terrible terrible terrible I wasted money and would never hire again. Have more weeds now than I had when I started. Every kind of weed possible Crabgrass, dandelions, mushrooms, chickweed, etc etc and loads of bare spots. I even have a sprinkler system and seeded and paid additional cost for insect control. Came to my house to analyze two times and never provided any service to correct the issues. Advises me too much water, or not enough water and I need to seed and need an airation which I have already done every year with other lawn services.

It went very well. Joseph Gibson the technician was very engaged and detail oriented so that grass seed did not go into the planting beds. Joseph sought my input and listened carefully when I asked him to be careful around the in-ground sprinkler heads that I had marked; he also paid extra attention to the areas that I asked him to.
