Photo of Gabe L.'s yard after getting lawn care in Chicago, IL
Once again, Cornelius did an absolute phenomenal job on my yard! You can tell he takes extreme pride in the work he does. It really shows. The edging of my yard has never looked better. He cleared all the clippings away from my building and left the area spotless. I’ve had a few different companies service my yard through LawnStarter and he is by far the best. Hope for continued success for Cornelius and Trendy Lawn Care.

As always Jeremy did a great job cutting my grass! Is very clean, never bothers me. Does a very professional job! I definitely recommend him for all yard work. He works alone but man does he do an amazing job! He has been the only landscaper to commit to coming to my home every 2 weeks without cancelling or coming late. All the other people either cancel or never show up without notice. I am so grateful for Jeremy. I hope he continues providing us with his amazing work!

Very responsive. He did the mowing so fast I didn’t imagine it would be fast and nice. I wish I knew about this service sooner. Will definitely use again. Fingers crossed I can use for leaf pick up and snow removal. I would recommend to family and friends

Just like with his previous work, Isreal did a phenomenal job once again. This is his second time servicing my lawn and the quality had not gone down one bit. He edged all the sides and corners perfectly and the height of the grass was even throughout. If you want your lawn to be treated right with the utmost level of professionalism, go and hire Isreal at Vazquez lawncare. You will not be disappointed.
