She wasn't particularly friendly. Instead of saying "no, I'm sorry I don't do lawns,' she sounded kind of annoyed. People must have mistakenly called for lawn work before. She didn't leave with me with a warm feeling, but she could be the greatest gardener in the world. Who knows. I'm only posting so people don't call her if they need lawn work. Heaven forbid.
Description of Work: This company does not do regular yardwork or lawn maintenance. She only works in flower beds. So since I need both I did not use her for the job. But I wanted to pass this information along because it says she does lawns on Angie's List.

I had to leave a couple of messages before I got a return call. I was told that that they would be unable to do the work at this time, and that they mainly work in the east county area (I live in city of San Diego).
Description of Work: No service performed.

I looked up the company on Angie's List and contacted them. However, I never received a callback or followup regarding my request or even acknowledging my contact.

From their very first visit I was satisfied. I'd ask them just to keep the front looking nice. We don't have a lawn so we have more weeds than usual. On their own they decide which area to work on and this past session Deborah pointed out that our pine tree had a pest infestation. I would not have discovered that on my own.
Description of Work: The two ladies come to our house every other week and work for two hours. Deborah does the trimming and pruning and leaves plants and bushes looking very natural rather than just sawed back. They both weed by hand rather than using a hull hoe so they get the roots of the weeds. I've used them for way over a year now and hope to have them come weekly when their schedule lightens up. I would recommend them to anyone except that I want them to have more time for me!

They really just do a great job, and I am glad that I found them. They are very professional, and I think they have a very good price. My overall experience with them has been really good. I have no complaints.
Description of Work: They come to my home and take care of the lawn. They clear weeds and they keep the front looking clean and nice. We have a 1/2 acre lot and I pay them monthly.

MARSHA & DEBORAH ABSOLUTELY LOVE GARDENS SO THEY STARTED THIS BUSINESS. KNOW PLANTS, ARE ENERGETIC, METICULOUS, EXPERIENCED, FRIENDLY, AS CAPABLE AS MALE GARDENERS, & VERY AFFORDABLE. REAL GARDENING- NOT JUST BLOW & GO.
