They have to come back because the seed didn't take and they are just saying that my lawn needs more work. I didn't realize that because they didn't really tell me ahead of time, but maybe because my lawn did not take the seed, and so they said I needed more grass or in the form of it. They were still in good service. I plan to have them back in the spring to do the second kind of treatment. They were fast and they fit us in the schedule when they were supposed to. The cost was definitely the least expensive.
Description of Work: Mike's Discount Mowing did aeration and over-seeding.

It did not go so good with Mike's Discount Mowing. I had him do some draining to work and I did not pay him in fact I went with a different provider. They gave me a $107 turn over for some $700 bill. It’s a run job. It’s so unprofessional I could not believe it. My next door neighbor had used him. Last year he came out and it was Crappy job. I still have a ton of dandelions to my next door neighbor blowing over. I paid him and said he needs to come back to do these lovely dandelions. One day I have to run him outside. I never really looked how it looked like. I talked to him about the drainage for our house and he said it’s $700 with $200 dollars included running the neighbors down spout. This was around February or March. He came back May, he showed up and I was just happy to see him. He had kids digging by hand on the property. I asked him why he would do that after the fact that he wanted to rent out a ditch switch. I’ve never gotten an answer. It looks like hell. I won’t use him again.

Response from Mike's Discount Mowing
Customer did refuse to pay and we sued him and we won the judgement in early April, which was right before he posted this review. We now have an open judgement against him. We do not have any kids working for us. The work was completed as requested and the drainage problem was solved, so his statement about going with another provider is not true. As far as weeds on his property, we stopped working for him in 2013 when he stopped paying his bills, so we are not sure who is treating his lawn now and we are still working for his neighbor and have worked for him for over 4 years now.

Would not recommend, seems to be anger issues and needs to remember the fundamentals of customer service. Business goes to those who do the best work at the best price.
Description of Work: Mike and Diane were very timely about calling and quoting early in the year but the service was subpar. They used a crew that would not pick up any item in the yard such as a ball but would rather now around it. I called and expressed my concerns, then the young man with the weed eater ran with it thus missing many weeds, while the guy with the leaf blower was putting objects in the blower and watching them project into my yard. I expressed the concerns regarding the lack of professionalism and lack of cleanup (not blowing off the stairs etc) and was told they would discuss. I had them plant trees and do make a flower bed in the spring but when another company cut down trees with our home owners association Mike became angry, two weeks later when my neighbor asked for a quote , told her he wouldn't take on small jobs and wouldn't work with unloyal customers. My neighbor was actually concerned about the level of his anger. I called Diane no answer. Terrible. Will not use.

Response from Mike's Discount Mowing
Our crew has been with us for over five years and they do go above and beyond for customers. After concerns were addressed about mowing around items, we spoke to our employees and they did pick up the toys and rocks that continued to be left in the lawn each week. They even picked up large piles of garden weeds that the customer threw into the yard prior to the lawn cut. In regards to items being put into the leaf blower, that was not the case. There was a golf ball in the lawn and one of the crew members blew it threw the lawn onto the curb so it would not be ran over by the mower. We addressed this with him and explained that the perception was that he was putting things in the blower and that he should have just picked the item up rather than blowing it. I spoke to the customer and took her concerns seriously and had the crew members make adjustments to meet her needs. We even hand pulled weeds out of her landscape beds on multiple occasions over the past several months. In regards to the tree removal, no one expressed any anger towards this customer. We just asked in an email, why a different company was hired after we had given a quote and have been working on the property for the past six months and were told by the customer that they needed to do things in stages and would have us do it at a later date. The response to our question was because they found someone cheaper and would have more trees taken down at a later time. In regards to the neighbor asking for a quote, her request was for us to trim weeds with a weed eater in a small area that was full of poison ivy. We do small jobs for customers all the time and usually at no charge if we are already working on the property. In regards to calling and not getting an answer, I was in a meeting and returned the call within two hours and I did not receive an answer so I sent an email letting customer know that I tried to return her call and would be available if she wanted to give me a call back. We pride ourselves on customer service and are sorry that things did not work out. This review came after we informed the customer this week that we would no longer be servicing their account.

I asked some one to come and water my lawn all weekend and they actually did it! What they say is what they do, Mike does a little more and doesn't charge. They are great people. He does out door pest control, they have taken tree stumps out for me, they have done patios for me as well. They also sodded, and did some landscaping too!
Description of Work: They mow my lawn every week. They also do all sorts of lawn work for me.

Mike's Discount Mowing is the best lawn care service I have ever used. We have used their services for the last 5 years, and every time we are completely satisfied. Last year, many of our plants died because of the extreme drought, so this year we had Mike come out and give us an estimate on completely changing our landscape. Mike was able to come out that same week and give us an estimate. For sod, mulch, 80 new plants (6 trees), a small fire pit, and a new fountain, Mike quoted us $8,000. We also received quotes from two other landscape companies, and both of their quotes were over $13,000. You cannot beat the value that Mike offers. They are excellent to work with because they are very professional. When they completed our job this year, they were just as professional as always. Mike was willing to talk with me and work out all the concerns that I had. I am able to call them with questions any time, and they respond promptly. My past lawn care services were nothing like Mike's Discount Mowing. They provide honest quotes, professional level of service, and the end result always speaks for itself. Sometimes they have to schedule me a few weeks out from the time I request the job, but at least they are honest. Other landscape companies have told me they would be out within the week, and then had to reschedule two or three times. Mike is honest and you know exactly what to expect. In addition to this job, every other service that they provide has always been excellent. I am a doctor, so I need to leave my house early in the morning. When it snows, they have my snow cleared by 6:30 am so that I am not late for work. Their fall clean-up is also reasonable. I have many trees, but they never fail to remove my leaves.
Description of Work: Completely renovated our landscape, put in new plants, put in new grass, added a fire pit and fountain. Also services our lawn weekly, does fall clean-up, and snow removal in the winter.

From the time we called Mike to come and spruce up our yard in anticipation of spring and because our house is for sale, it took nearly a month for them to get here. They were supposed to provide an estimate before doing the work, which we never got. We did get an invoice after the fact, which we paid a couple of weeks later. 2 days after paying the invoice, we received a 2nd notice (we think they crossed in the mail). The next day, we got a letter indicating that they weren't going to service our lawn anymore.
Description of Work: We've used Mike for over a year, with reasonable service. At the beginning of spring, we asked Mike to come over and spruce up our yard (cut grass, fill in a hole, etc.).

Response from Mike's Discount Mowing
The request to complete the work was on February 19th, 2013, which was still when the temperatures were extremely cold and grass is not cut that early in the year. We completed the work as soon as the weather allowed on March 12, 2013. A quote was provided to [member name removed] and he agreed to the price prior to the completion of the work. We would also assume that the second request for payment crossed in the mail with the customers check. The reason we decided not to work for this customer any further was because of excessive dog feces in the yard that the customer would not clean up.
