It went very well! this was our second application. I noticed after the first that the majority of the weeds were gone. Mark was easy to get a hold of and answered all my questions and concerns. We have children and pets thus we were looking for the safest option out there!
Description of Work: Applied nontoxic fertilizer and weed killer.

Mark's initial response was quick. I had a proposal within a few days. When I called to make sure the materials were something I'd want on my lawn, Mark gave me the specifics, and I recognized the ingredients as ones I'd used myself, so I trusted that they were organic. The only trouble I've had is actually getting an answer from him when I leave a message. Usually, I get a voice mail saying he called instead of giving me the answer. I've spent weeks playing phone tag, which I hate. I really wanted to know why all the applications he proposed didn't get done, and which ones were done, since two of them didn't match dates or contents with his proposal. To get that answer, I finally put the questions in writing with a checklist and a space for any further explanation he needed to give me. Well, it took several months, but he filled it out and sent it back, so I've continued the service. It is very important to me that this organic option continue to be available in the Chicago area, so we can have decent lawns without poisoning the water we drink and the animals that enter our space. When he comes next time, Mark will be applying a natural grub treatment, milky spore, which is effective but very hard for me to apply myself. He will charge $52 to apply it commercially; an application expected to last 15 to 20 YEARS. How reasonable is that price?!
Description of Work: Organic (!) fertilizer and weed control for my lawn! Proposal was for a whole season but didn't start until after the first materials should have been applied, so the price shown above is for a single application.
