I like him very much. He is always here when he say he is going to be here and we've had a lot of rain here, so he has done an excellent job of getting it cut. He is very neat. I was cutting the lawn before and trimming it and blowing it, so I can really appreciate what they are doing. They do an excellent job. I would recommend them to anybody. I think their price is very reasonable.

They take care of our front lawn for us. We get an invoice and then we pay it on line. It is very convenient. I get the invoice in the mail. They come every two weeks. When I come home I see it's done and I don't have to worry about it. They communicate with you if they have a question, I can text and he will text me back. If he says he'll be there tomorrow, he'll be there tomorrow.

They provided great prices, punctuality, responsiveness, quality, and they were very professional. The only thing I didn't really like is that they got all my emails but "one" where they made a mistake. Basically I wanted bi-weekly mowing, and they only offer weekly. I had to cancel because I'm not interested in weekly mowing. Because I cancelled, they basically told me now I had to wait atleast 3-4 weeks for them to help me clean the yard waste the tornado caused to my house this past week. I took it pretty personal. While they score an A on every attribute above, they handle complaints 100% wrong in terms of customer service. I would recommend them if you want weekly mowing though.

My 1st Angies List review! We needed approx 1 acre of property cleaned up with 1/2 acre needing major cleanup of many years of fallen leaves and branches. The Woltemate crew of 7 came out at 5 pm and were done by 8 pm and did a FANTASTC job. I had other quotes of $350 and $375 and that was just for the back half with all the branches and leaves. Woltemate did the whole yard taking away brush, leaves and many branches. They blew off all the dust they could off the walk and driveway. Would recommend them strongly.

Denis is a great guy. Very easy to communicate with through email. The lawn service so far has been excellent. What I've liked so far is the consistency. Always doing the service weekly. I also like how the lawn isn't cut too short. I always seem to think that my neighbors cut their lawn too short and too often. I'm definitely liking Denis' service better than my old provider, not to say that the old provider was bad, but the old provider was unpredictable of when they would show up. I also thought the old provider cut the lawn too short and caused bare spots around the trees with their lawn tractors due to our sloping yard. Denis ensured me that he would try and do his best to prevent the bare spots around the trees. So far so good. With all other lawn services out there, I would highly recommend Denis, for their service, pricing and consistency.

The work is done when scheduled, the job is thorough, and they have beat any other estimates I've requested. Denis is extremely nice and efficiently uses email to contact his customers. I have never actually met him or his crew, because the work is always completed while I am at work. I will be using him for additional services in the near future.

I communicated with Denis via email on the web page for his business. I asked for an estimate on a Sunday for yard clean up and lawn cutting. He was very prompt with a response. He came to the house that Wednesday to cut the lawn. That was impressive.
Description of Work: There was a lot of grass around the house. It was high because it was the first cut of the season. He did a very nice job.

When Denis's crew arrived, I changed my mind at the last minute from the original work of just trimming back to clearing it totally out. While it cost more than the original estimate for much less work, it was done that day with no complaints for the additional time I would be using the crew. No trace of anything was left in my yard or driveway six hours later. When it was done, I was delighted to I have another 20 feet of property along the back length of my fence. My neighbors were glad to see the stuff gone as well. I got Denis's name from a co-worker for mowing when I moved in July 2011and needed a mower. It was already late in the season to add another house to his work load, but he said it was no problem. His price is incredibly reasonable, and his crew will adjust to any needs. I am also using him for yard maintenance and care this year, as his service is cheaper than what I've used for the past several years. Extremely pleased, and now one of my neighbors uses him as well. It's a nice feeling when I come home and see that his crew has come, and everything is totally cleared of grass clippings.
Description of Work: Denis's crew cleared out overgrowth that included maturing saplings, briers, vines with tendrils that wrapped tightly around everything, and various other invasive vegetation at the very back of my yard behind an existing split rail fence. His crew attacked overgrowth planted in the 1950's by the previous owner. I purchased the home in July 2011 and did not even realize all that stuff was mine; I found out from a neighbor who planted his at the same time. In just two summers, it started getting totally out of control, with much of the growth reaching the utility wires. I had hacked at it on a continual basis, mainly to keep back the invasive thorn bushes and vines from spreading into my yard. I even changed my mind at the last minute regarding the word I wanted done from trimming back to clearing it totally out.

Denis has been maintaining my lawn now for two summers. He is always reliable and responsive even to last-minute requests for an "emergency clean-up" for a spring or summer barbecue. Very reasonable cost for weekly cut - front ant back yard. Hope to continue to use his services for many years to come.

My experience so far has been terrific! They began taking care of my lawn in May and it has never looked better! I don't recognize it! They mow the lawn and trim weekly and have done one application of fertilizer/weed control. My yard (front and back) is 2/3 of an acre and I'm charged $35 for each cut. But, my yard is challenging. My back yard is fenced in and ther are about 10 tree stumps in varying stages of decay and a few ornamental trees, hostas and planting beds to trim around. And, I also throw them a curve ball every few weeks as I re-seed areas of my yard and setup sprinklers. They take all of it in stride and my yard looks immaculate. Also, as I was deciding on a lawn contractor, Denis quickly and patiently responded to all my questions and continues to do so as I go through my first summer with them. I really appreciate that!
Description of Work: I am a new client of Denis Woltemate's firm for weekly lawn mowing (2/3 acre) and fertilizing/weed control (4 applications during the year). And I'd like to continue to be one of his clients for years to come.

He's been mowing for about a month now - has been consistent and reliable.
Description of Work: Denis is personable, responsible, reliable. They mow our lawn, and we will likely use them for other yard work. He has about 5 mowers working at once, so it gets 6+ acres done quickly (which is nice).

Their service is excellent. They are very reasonably priced. I like them a lot. I have always done by own lawn work, but I had a knee replacement surgery a couple of years ago, so I needed a lawn service for a couple of months and then I never let them go. The fourth year is coming up after I started using them. I use them for mowing the lawn and fertilizing my lawn. They are very customer focussed. Also, they do offer landscaping services, but I don’t take advantage of that. I would like to give them a high rating for their work.
Description of Work: I have been using the services of Denis C. Woltemate Lawn for three years. I used them last for lawn cutting in November 2011 and they will be starting up again with fertilizing in March 2012.

I had contacted them and asked them to clean up my front and back yards--three large trees and lots of leaves, sticks, and general seasonal debris. I called them on a Sunday afternoon, they answered the call immediately and due to limitations on their end, requested a later call or an email description. I emailed them instructions, they inspected the property the following day. They asked questions via email, and I called to clarify. They emailed a proposal with a 'window for completion'. I emailed them approval and reiterated instructions, and they confirmed 'window of completion'. Four days later the work was completed! No 'ups'; no 'extras'; the perfect contractor!
Description of Work: My schedule didn't allow time to clean up the yard this fall. I found this company through Angie's List and they did everything I asked for 'by remote control'. I dealt with the owner, never met him, never saw him or his people. All communication was through telephone and email. He was able to inspect the property, ask questions, and provide a quote in an extremely timely manner (based on my previous experiences with others). Once the terms and tasks were agreed upon, the work just magically happened in a very short time and within the time frame promised, on a day when I least expected it (one expects landscape, lawn and shrub guys to 'hide' when it rains), and up to expectations. Prompt, courteous, and competitive. They did a professional job of yard cleanup, got all the leaves, sticks and general seasonal yard debris they could reach, (didn't ask or expect them to clean off the roof of the building) and made it all disappear.

It went well from start to finish; very reliable and efficient and priced right!
Description of Work: Denis's firm did an excellent and reliable job of keeping the grass cut at a property we held for sale over the summer and into the fall of 2011; his price was fair, he completed the job(s) when he said he would and was overall very professional in the way he handled the jobs and our relationship throughout. I especially liked it that his website was so accessible and easy to read and understand and how available he was via Email for communicating. A class act! I would recommend him to anyone.

He used to do our field once or twice a year. He was great. We didn't have that much contact with him but he was great. I got a lawn service that my neighbor was using too where we got a better deal and he also does our field when we want. When Denis was doing the field I had no complaints, he was fine and very good. I guess I would definitely look into using him if I needed him again.

Denis Woltemate has been out here a couple of times for one job. I am still waiting for the final bill because I had some extra stuff done. It was about $195 and that’s without the tree that he replaced. He contacted me through e-mail and we talked. I told him that I have a dead spiral tree and I asked him if he could replace that. I ended up having that replaced. He said that he would send me a bill towards the end of the month. He did a really good job. The communication was very good. He responded right away when I e-mailed him or called. He also did what he said he would do at a fair price. I am pretty sure the final price would be a fair price too because the original price was fair. I would use his services in the future too.
Description of Work: I used the services of Denis C Woltemate Lawn about two weeks ago for general yard work. I needed some yard work done like trimming of shrubbery and bushes. Then I asked them to remove a dead spiral plant that I had on my landing. So, Denis Woltemate replaced that and also cleaned up the stuff.
