Description of Work: Connie & her crew weeded our very overgrown planting beds and laid down corn gluten meal along with a cardboard base and mulch. Looks great and gives us a new start on our yard
Description of Work: We have been using EarthWise Inc. for the past four years for lawn maintenance. We recently contracted with Connie to include all aspects of our yard's year around maintenance including drainage and irrigation. They recently installed french drains to alleviate problems we have been dealing with for years. I am extremely happy with how Connie and EarthWise conduct business.

Inspected lawn and determined that there were weeds and different types of grass. Asked when was the last time we fererlized? When I said the old gardner billed me for at least 6 ferterlizings, she said she didn't see it. Frankly I didn't either, hence the move to locate a new gardner. Conne said that they would do the first cut to better see what there was a predominance of then we could determine the best weed and feed ferterlizer to use in the future. Connie herself came out to inspect the lawn before the first cut. I am very pleased with them and will continue to use them.
Description of Work: Lawn inspected, both front and back. Both lawns cut, trimmed and edged. Best my lawn has looked in a LONG time.

At first we had some growing pains with them, but now we are satisfied with their services. I would say that their pricing is a little high, which is because they are an organic company.
Description of Work: We have used EarthWise multiple times. They last came out for repetitive lawn care, which included putting down corn gluten.

I agree that not everyone can afford our prices. We provide quality products and quality services. The organic products we use do not cover as many square feet and may reflects in a higher cost of our services. Our services are always accompanied by a followup to see how we can better service our customer. We do provide our customers with an estimation or quotes for our services. The customer can declined services anything

Around the New Years holiday week I called the Earthwise phone number and Connie Cates answered. At the time she was in California taking care of arrangements for a funeral but she made plans to meet me at the end of the week when she returned. I explained what I wanted and she noted these down. I explained one of the problems I wanted to work on was a thorny pest plant that was making inroads along the fence in the backyard. Since I am going to have Earthwise take care of the lawn maintenance now this will be one of the things she can keep an eye on for me. The Earthwise crew captained by one of Connie's daughters came out about a week later and I was very pleased with the appearance of the property and the that the things we talked about were done to my satisfaction. I found only one item that was not done (which was to clean out the fallen leaves and branches behind the garage) and after telling her about this she had her crew out the next day or so and took care of it.
Description of Work: 1. A number of "volunteer" small trees along the fence line were cut down. 2. A limb or two on a larger tree that was encroaching was taken down. 3. The shrubbery around the house was trimmed. 4. The lawn was neatly mowed and edged. 5. All the cut down trees and limbs were hauled away.

I've been looking for an organic-conscious lawn and garden company to help me manage and fix my landscaped front yard for a while. I contacted Connie at EarthWise and I immediately knew this was the company I was looking for. The consultation / yard walk through was just what I needed to show what I have, explain what I'm looking for, and convey my desires to use natural / organic products and methods. I also got the feedback I needed on what will be best for the plants I have and why as well as suggestions for what would be good additions. We discussed what kind of initial work should be done to prepare my front yard for Winter and discussed work to be done this Spring. Connie also gave me a full analysis of organic amendments and treatments to add to my yard and beds to give them the nutrients to be healthier next year. Connie was pleasure to talk to and knows how to manage your yard using organic methods. Give her a call!!!
Description of Work: EarthWise did the following over two days: Removed many trash trees including 2 oaks over 10 feet tall Removed a couple crepe myrtles that weren't doing any favors to their surroundings Cleaned out existing mulch, weeds, and dead shrubs from four large sections of landscaped beds Trimmed and shaped existing shrubs Trimmed dead wood from large Japanese Maple Hauled in and laid down four yards of hardwood mulch on top of cardboard (used as a biodegradable weed barrier) Mowed and edged the front yard Hauled away all materials and left my yard looking great

The entire job was done very well. Connie is very professional and a delight to work with. I will be happy to give her my strongest recommendation at any time.
Description of Work: Connie of Earthwise came out promptly and gave me an estimate of the work we wanted done and some recommendations as to how this work would maintain it's good appearance for some time. On the appointed day they were out promptly and weeded, mulched, planted and trimmed as needed and were finished within four hours, removing all trash and cleaning up very well.

Our suburban lawn is comprised of St Augustine grass, minimal shade, and thick clay soil. Over the past six years our grass has become much greener and more lush each year until it truly stands out in the neighborhood. Even in the extended heat, we only water twice weekly and our lawn is dark green! Connie inspects our lawn several times each year and her treatments have been right on! Connie's daughter is the team chief of the mowing crew and is anxious to please the customer. Hired helpers occasionally need closer supervision regarding string cutting our tree trunks and house wiring as well as leaving a level lawn when cuttng thick grass on hill sides. Team will respond immediately to complaints and they are very punctual in meeting their weekly mowing time. Price is set by contract and varies monthly based on services to be performed. You can find cheaper lawn mowing services if that is all you want. We find that heavy spring weeds require pulling by hand (Round-Up is not organic!). Organic gardening costs more and requires experienced, quality oversight, but the safety of our pets and wild life (earthworms, birds, etc.) makes EarthWise a good investment for us. We anticipate using EarthWise for years to come.
Description of Work: We have used EarthWise since we purchased our home in 2005. Annual contract includes lawn mowing, edging, fertilizing, adding lava sand, etc. Mowing frequency varies with the season, but a minimum number of mows is included in the contract. Earthwise determines the weekly mowing time/day as well as appropriate dates for the fertilazation and other treatments. Everything is organic - fertilizer, weed treatment, etc.

This property has been organic for about six years. For the first three years the blades remain yellow all year. It is one of the greener lawn in the area. We are an organic company and our prices are based on quality organic products and services. We do not take short cuts with our services. If some reason the customers is not please, we return and redo it. I remember only one occasion in six years that had to remow this property. It sits on a steep slope and the back lawn is different to get even. Our service and prices are competitive in the marketplace.

If staging was a category, I would put this work under that category too. Connie created two scenes in the front of my house that 'popped' as she says, and created huge visual appeal. I believe that the work that Connie did for me is part of the reason our house got a good offer within 4 days of being listed! In this market! Our front door is red, but kind of in a shadow so it doesn't show up well. Connie hunted for and found a very large green ceramic pot and filled it with lime green and red plants shade plants to complement the front door. She used red caladiums, lime green coleus, sweet potato vines and several other plants that I can't identify. It is gorgeous! The pot is absolutely stuffed with plants. Most of the flower beds in front of the house are filled with perennials but there is one triangular spot right in the front where I usually put some annual color. First, Connie mounded this area with soil so that it visually lifted the area, then she filled it with white and yellow flowers. We had both heard that yellow flowers attract home buyers. She used white begonias at the bottom of the mound, and shrimp plants above them. The back is the lime green coleus again, with very yellow croton on the ends. It just screams "I'm beautiful! Come buy me!" Very, very visually appealing and eye-catching. This yellow attraction is also adjacent to a large spot of purple oxalis, so again, the complementary colors work so beautifully together. Connie has a real eye for color. Connie advised me on other staging too, while we were visiting for the estimate. I have a fence with several terracotta suns on it. She mentioned that I needed something large over here to go with it. I got a large metal sun at Big Lots for $20 and it's perfect. She also advised me to move my small bird bath from the back deck to near the fence with suns. Again, such a simple touch but such a big improvement. The bed maintenance in the back beds was done efficiently. Connie's practice is to place cardboard under the mulch to keep weed growth to a minimum. This is working very well. Connie also used some extra plants (the rest of the flats) and mulch at no extra cost to me. She put the rest of the red caladiums on the fence line under my terracotta suns and it looks perfect. I am very pleased with the work that Connie and her crew did and when we buy a new place and get settled, I'll ask her to come get me started in our new home.
Description of Work: Outdoor staging in preparation for putting our house on the market - creating curb appeal with very attractive plants. Including all plants, large ceramic pot, mulch, bedding soil and delivery. Flower bed clean up: weed-eat beds, remove trash trees from back, trim perennials, and mulch.
Description of Work: Weekly lawn service, which includes mowing, edging and trimming was performed on Friday. Earthwise has a professional, friendly, courteous team. In addition to the weekly lawn service, they perform aereation, fertilization, weed control, leaf removal, and flower bed cleanup. They designed and implemented three flower beds on our property which included bed preparation and mulch installation. They are beautiful year round. We have been using their services for over five years. I highly recommend Earthwise, Inc.

I have used this company for at least 6 years and have found the service dependable and the quality of work very high. I am a happy client! S.C. Colleyville, TX
Description of Work: This company's care of my yard has evolved over time from basic yard work to full property management. I could not be more pleased. The approach for my yard is organic and the results outstanding. It is not uncommon to have complete strangers stop and quiz me about my yard, and I have not hesitated to refer them and neighbors to Earthwise Lawn & Landscape Service. Since the company oversees every aspect of my lawn care, services include leaf removal, fertilization, aeration, and mowing, etc., in addition to the more involved design/planning, planting, and gardening maintenance. Services, weekly; cost, monthly.

It went well. They really take pride in doing a good job, and they are always friendly.
Description of Work: They mowed the yard and sprayed for weeds.
Outstanding! Connie and her crew are completely organic, and have an extensive knowledge of plant and soil compatability. I began service with Earthwise about 10 years ago for basic maintenance only, and over time added seasonal color changes, mulching of beds and most recently landscape re-design as part of a whole house remodel. Connie has an experienced eye toward the total landscape, working with the customer not only toward selecting plants that will thrive in the landscape, but that fit in their surroundings and work with the property as a whole. The entire Earthwise crew is extremely professional, always taking the time to answer any questions I have and working with me to find solutions to any problems that arise in a prompt and efficient manner. Their pride in workmanship extends to their ability to see problems before they become big issues, notifying me of them and working with me to find the best solution to the problem. I have learned so much from them, and have an amazing yard to enjoy due to their dedication to their work. I enthusiastically recommend them for any and all landscape needs - Earthwise is terrific!
Description of Work: I am on annual contract with Earthwise. This averages to a weekly cost of about $100-$125, depending on the season and work that is needed. Landscape maintenance, mulching of bedding areas, and soil enrichment are all included in this cost. Weekly maintenance includes mowing, edging, and general cleanup of leaves and debris; seasonal maintenance includes mulching beds, aerating, fertilization and weed control. I have also used Earthwise for landscape design and installation.
