Chyreese N.'s Lawn Mowing service result
Cornelius was great and very professional! He assessed my lawn, discussed the plan of care with me, and did a great job with cutting, edging, and keeping everything neat in my patio grass area. Additionally, he wore booties I had to protect my floors from tracking anything inside. He recommended additional services as well once I’m ready! I feel confident that I can manage my lawn with his support. I appreciate the service and am happy that I stuck it out. I was frustrated earlier due to a miscommunication. I recommend the company give workers access to customer phone numbers upon arrival if you prefer a phone call, so you do not miss the workers when they arrive. Other than that, the service was great and it only took an hour. Thank you for the great work and much appreciated until next time!

My lawn looks very nice! I really appreciate Cornelius’ professionalism and he works quickly and efficiently to get my lawn service done. The grass is growing better and there are less visible dry areas. He is very nice and cordial and is always open to listening to any additional lawn care needs.

I was very happy and impressed with the work Tracey did today. He came and did a quality job with manicuring the lawn all while providing efficient service. In addition, I made a change to the mowing schedule and requested for him to come early and he honored the request! I have had some poor service from other lawn pros but this pro has helped to renew my confidence in good people providing excellent service! Thank you for your help!

Takesha did a great job! My lawn looked so much better than the person that cut it before. I will continue to get my grass cut with Takesha! She talked to me about my grass and what to do to keep it up. She made me aware of what I needed to do. My grass looked great and I was very pleased with the service I received. The edging was done perfect. My grass looks very neat and nice and she told me what to do about the weeds. Thank you so much for your service! I look forward to many more!

Great that the crew believes that I want my yard to look professionally done upon their departure. I look forward to their return biweekly.

Originally i was expecting my yard to get done tomorrow so it was a good surprise to see it was being done today. Vontae was moving efficiently & he even answered my questions regarding my thoughts of wanting to add a rock bed to the front of my yard. Additionally, he made sure to blow away all the excess grass from the mow & got rid of the trash that was in my yard as well. My first two times of going through LawnStarters i didn’t get the best service & was not pleased so truly appreciate Vontae’s work this time around. I will definitely be booking him through LawnStarters for my future mows.

He blows all of the debris away and cleans up once finished. the trimming is also done well, close to the concrete and doesn’t dig into the grass. Thanks Devon!"
