I always had very clear communication with this company. They always responded to emails. Sometimes both the wife and husband would respond together. But they stopped responding when I asked them to halt mowing because I seeded. They mowed over my freshly planted seeds. I emailed them, they apologized, and I asked them to pause mowing again, because I was going to reseed. I got no reply and they came and mowed over the second seeding job I did, undoing work I did twice. They were upset I did my own work so they sabotaged it, then wouldn't apologize when I called after their second mess up. Go with professionals, not this company who does things emotionally and unethically.

Response from Ken's Lawn & Property Service Inc
Sabotage! Wow, now that is ridiculous. Like we planned it! We have done this property for roughly 10 years with no issues. In this case, he says we cut the lawn after he seeded it and he wrote us via email, not to cut it beforehand. We never saw that email, nor did we acknowledge it. We apologized for that. We didn't return to this property after that incident for 18 (EIGHTEEN) days. Did he tell us he was reseeding and not to come,? NO! Is 18 days a rather lawn period between cuts; it obviously is. So, taking a misunderstanding and calling it sabotage is just preposterous. We are overwhelmed with work and the need to purposely destroy something we have little time to do anyways, is absurd.

Job was well done. This is not really a complaint, because it worked out well in the end. I was told that I had to be home to have the service performed. I was out but made sure to home in time. When I got home, it was already finished. So it seems that I didn’t need to be home after all.

Hi, that's a fair comment. We ask for people to be home because we want to make sure all the work is completed and done properly. This is especially true if we don't know the property. In this case it happened to work out well. Appreciate your feedback and the opportunity

The two folks working for Ken's were very efficient and detailed, cleaning up and removing a lot of old dead and decaying shrubs, and cleaning up a Large Holly bush that was in serious need of trimming. All in all, very efficient and effective

Ken was very frank, professional, and punctual. Explained what he could do [relocating bushes -- that might not "take" and seeding, etc.] and what might not be successful, etc. Our neighbor, who knows more about such things, and kept an eye out on the procedures, said he had done a very fine job. Very reasonably priced.
Description of Work: A good portion of our yard had to be excavated by plumber/sewer pipe professionals, and my husband was very concerned about having a big expanse of mud for the whole winter.

Not well. Service was poor. Company called but DID NOT VERIFY correct address. Should have and verified correct address before doing job. Service rep WAS NOT HELPFUL IN RESOLVING ISSUE. She said it was out of her hand and could not do anything to rectify problem. SORRY does not go very well or very far. Will consider others before going with this company again

WOW! Went to wrong house. Neighbor across the street. She knew we were there but refused to even talk to our guys. Our guys can't hear phone or see text when the machines are running, so we couldn't immediately reach them. Simple mistake, but she wanted to punish us. We did their property once our guys knew they were at wrong house and it was done perfectly. Drama for nothing. Just simply a mean approach by a lady/man who won't walk out the front door and simply wave to our guys and, apparently, doesn't talk to her neighbor. Of course we would say sorry and of course we did her property as well. Her property got done 10 minutes later. So what's the issue! Amazing and totally stupid!!
