The results was more than we texpected for less than our budget. Work was done promptly, efficiently and professionally. Clean up was very well done. I would not hesitate to recommend Smoky Top Contractors."

"Quality work for a good price!"

"I hired Quality Lawn Care late last year to remove the remnants of a root system, grade and level out my lawn away from the house, and reseed. Everyone was friendly enough when outperforming the work, but the yard did not look level. When I asked about it, they said it would settle and level out and if there were any issues to give them a call. After everything started to grow in and I cut the grass I found several areas where roots were exposed in addition to an overall unlevel lawn - let alone the grading being non-existent. I took it as the downside of having a large tree removed and reached back out to them to get a quote on having everything gone over again in addition to other work - fully expecting to pay for the service. They were quick to respond and come out to get a quote. Larry was very friendly and got everything down for additional work while stating the original work would be covered and done free of charge. That was a great relief to hear ... except that was the last I heard. I have called the numbers I had previously several times across three weeks and left messages with no response. I left 1 star for work quality and value since they performed some work. I left a half star for customer service since they were friendly when dealing with them, but there was ZERO follow-up and have now been ghosted. Shameful way to reconcile an issue by offering to guarantee work and then disappear. -UPDATE: I was contacted by Quality Lawn Care to schedule the work as the rain continuously delayed schedules and they had to wait on the dirt to finish the landscaping. After a few weeks, we were able to get someone out and they completed the grading with fill dirt. I will have to rake the spots in the lawn that were filled as it contains a lot of rocks and asphalt chunks that I do not want to hit with my mower. I watered everything multiple times a day per their instruction, but grass is not growing in the spots that were fixed - likely due to the dirt condition. That said, I have revised my ratings accordingly."

"Eric came out after a storm knocked half a tree down on my fence gave me the estimate and was back within 2 days to get the tree off my fence and cut the rest of the way down. Very professional and I would highly recommend them. I will be calling them back to trim another tree in my yard."

"They were very fast and did an excellent job in preparing the designated spot for my pool. They flattened a 17' x 10' area then packed it with sand. Would recommend them for future projects."

"Noah provided me a quote and was able to come out the next day to take care of my removal. He was perfectly on time, professional, and friendly. I would definitely use his company again for future projects. Thanks!"

"Make sure you are very specific in your vision, the work to be done and what you expect at the end of the job. Great attitude from rooted land works. Easy to work with and will help you accomplish your goals."
