Noticed improvement in weeds within first 2 weeks of application. They will continue to spot treat the weeds even beyond the first application if warranted. This accounts for their second weed treatment, made without a call from me. I decided to try the full seasonal package. With 2 weed visits and a fertilizer treatment, the lawn is definitely improved. Received a call from them to check on my satisfaction. I noticed their invoices mention that service is automatically renewed for next year and asked them to remove me from this option. Prefer making that decision down the road. Service is professional. They will call if requested to alert you on day of service. Employees are uniformed with name tags. Invoices are detailed in terms of work done, as well as chemical analysis of products used. Recommend this provider based on my experience so far.
Description of Work: Applied weed control/crabgrass control to lawn per Angie's List Deal. Additional services were purchased which includes seasonal fertilizing and weed control.

I saw weeds all around my lawn and needed it to be taken care of quickly since my house is for sale. They came out just a week later from when I contacted them to kill the weeds. They left a pamplet with the bill to give more details about the service and future services.

They were good. However, I found some weed, they are coming next Monday to take care of the weed. They even called to see how satisfied I was, which was very nice. They offer free application for it. The price is good but the above questions is not specific, so I cannot answer. I paid for the package deal. I forgot the exact price, but it was better price than other companies. They have package deal. One time was cheep because through Angle's LIst. They are very nice on the phone, which is very important.

The young man let me know that he was to here to provide the weed control. After applying the treatment, he left a written report in the door handle with details about the treatment and then placed a marker in the lawn to remind others that that yard had been treated.

This company is super! My husband and I have had trouble finding a chemical lawn service company that actually does the work for which they have been contracted! We have been disappointed by two other companies- the only way we could tell that we had paid for a treatment service is that we were occasionally left little plastic stakes in our yard. However, the weeds ran rampant and the lawn looked rough. Weed Man has been professional, punctual, and responds to any concerns we have had about our lawn or the services we receive.

We started with Weed Man last year for a late summer/fall lawn care (fertilizer + weed killer). I was a little hesitant at first, because I learned of them from a door-to-door cold call. However, I have been continually and pleasantly surprised by the attention to customer service and depth of knowledge of the people I have spoken with on the phone. Most of these companies seem to want to do the minimum and move on as quickly as possible. I appreciate that these guys want to do a good job and earn repeat business. We plan to continue using them for more of our lawn care needs.

They are really good! I’ve been using their service for about 3 years. They are reasonably priced and there was been an improvement in the yard. In addition to the lawn care fertilization, they do lawn mowing and offer free lawn mower blade sharpening.

At first I just bought the $25 Angies List special that included one application of fertilizer/weed control. Before they would schedule the application, they were pretty persistent in trying to get me to sign up for the entire season's worth of service. I had been planning to do it myself but my yard was full of every weed imaginable after several years of neglect, as in more weeds than grass! It was their use of 'golf-course grade' weed control and their guarantee that got me to sign up for the entire season - they'll keep coming back if something's not right. Pretty sure you get this with the single application too, though, if you still have weeds 2 wks after they spray. And they did end up having to come back for a second application, my weeds were so bad. I still got credit for the AL discount on my seasonal service too. They also answered all my questions about pet safety of products etc. Once I agreed to the seasonal contract, they were out here within a couple of days, even before I returned the contract with payment. I came home as the guy was finishing up and he was very courteous, gave me the writeup of what he did, and reminded me to call in 2 weeks if there were still weeds. He warned me that certain weeds like clover were tough suckers and might need another hit. They actually beat me to it by calling me to follow up at the 2 week mark. At that point, maybe 20% of the original weeds were still alive. After the second application a couple days later, all weeds were gone. All. of. them. And the yard had greened up. It's been about 2 months and just in the past week I've seen a few dandelions starting up in one area but it's probably about time for them to come out again anyway. They also tried later to sell the extra grub control, but I declined. Overall very satisfied and would use them again.

OK. Originally bought $25 weed/crab grass control Deal....mistakenly thought it was fertilizer application too but it wasn't (my mistake...deal clearly said weed control only) When scheduling appoint on the phone, got a strong "up-sell" tactic to also sign up for separate annual fertilizer program, which I eventually did. Asked for the first application to be delayed a week, but they came out the same week as we spoke on the phone....no big deal, but it's a detail they missed. First application of weed control and fertilizer resulted in noticeable improvement in our grass....most weeds are essentially gone after just one application (offer includes multiple applications of the weed control if needed) and the grass is greener/thicker. Anticipating grass will look great after the completion of the fertilizer program.
Description of Work: Applied 1 weed/crabgrass control and first of 5 fertilizer applications
