Due to weather, it took awhile for Rodney to come. The weeds are dying and the lawn looks better. I hope he continues the service.

Right now everything is on hold. They did give me the claim number for DuPont but there has been no response from their insurance company. So I am left paying all the bills.
Description of Work: I have had Rodney Baker treat my lawn anddo fertilization. He also fertilized my trees for about 5 years, Until this year we had not has any problems. He is more expensive than the big box lawn specialists. In May, while we were in Hawaii, he applied a new product made by DuPont, Imprellis, to our lawn to get rid of the weeds. DuPont had only tested this porduct on turf farms and did not realize that it coud affect trees etc. When we returned, our Spurce were dying,. Ultimately we had a $19,000 claim which I expected his insurance company to pay. He has submitted the claim to DuPont and his insurance company in August, and so far we have not recieved any compensation.Right now I would not recommend him because his insurance company is not standing behind him. I am not sure this is going to be resolved without me taking his insurance company to court.

This is the second year we have used RJM for lawn fertilization and we are very happy with the results. They are careful about treating at the right time to get the most out of the application. Our lawn looked better this spring than it has for several years. The price is also much more reasonable than what we have paid in the past. RJM also takes care of our trees periodically.

They are very professional. Rodney is very, very knowledgeable. The majority of his business deals with the fertilization of lawns. He is all-organic, because we're on the lake. That's one reason that he's probably pricier than other companies in the area, but it's better for the environment.
Description of Work: They are here about once a month. First, they do lawn applications, but they can't always do lawn treatments at the same time. They do shrub control. They also do fertilization of lawn, shrubs, and trees. They will even do yard work for a few clients.

I sign a contract with them every year. If I have any problems I call them and they come out with a solution. My neighbors have all been saying that I have the best looking lawn in the neighborhood!
Description of Work: Because we live on a lake, they do all organic fertilizing of all my plants, my trees, and my lawn.

This is the second year Rodney Baker has treated our trees, after losing a big white pine to insects in Spring of 2007. He is an arborist who stays current on insects occurring in the area and the proper insecticides to treat for them. He proposed an 3-part annual preventative treatment program for this year, but only did Spring and Fall applications since the threat of damage was not high in the Summer. We appreciate his cooperation with our interest in not using more chemicals in our yard than is absolutely necessary to maintain it in a healthy state.
Description of Work: Treated numerous large trees for insects.

RJM was recommended to us by Griggs Tree and Landscape, whom we have used for tree work in the past, because they no longer have an arborist on staff. We were favorably impressed with Baker's knowledge and professional manner. The only improvement in the experience would have been for the treatment to have been done right after the diagnosis, but weather and his crews' other commitments prevented it for several days.
Description of Work: Inspected and treated 7 white pines, 5 spruces, a large mugho, and an ash tree for various insect problems. Rodney Baker, an arborist, came soon after we called him to look at a large white pine in a group of 7 that had turned brown over most of its limbs in a short time span. He determined that the tree was infested with Zimmerman pine moths and also had possible sawfly damage. He returned several days later to treat that tree, as well as the other evergreens to prevent them from taking on the insects from the diseased tree. The ash tree is healthy, but was given a maintenance treatment for ash borer. He will return in about a month to do a second round of treatments at the same price.
