Amazing! Lee is a pleasure to work with and is super diligent about his efforts. He took hours to walk our yard and woods to find and treat all poison ivy on the ground and in the trees (we have a big property and had a lot). Lee found it all and then on his return trip to ensure all is eliminated he treated anything new or if he had missed any. We're happy to say its all gone now and we couldn't be happier. Thanks Lee for being diligent and being very careful about treating just the plants and vines so as not to harm anything else. Thanks so much!!!
Description of Work: We needed our poison ivy eliminated from our yard as a few family members are allergic.

Lee came over, looked at the p. i. & tried to determine where it was coming from. He had eradicated it all over our yard several years ago and none had returned except in that spot. Sure enough, it was coming from the neighbor's yard. He killed it and also tried to get behind the fence to kill of there, too.
Description of Work: On 9-9-16 killed poison ivy that was coming into yard from behind neighbor's fence. Killed some of the p. i. on neighbor's side to prevent future encroachment. On 9/29 checked to make sure it was all gone. Also kill.

This was a large undertaking and project went great. We started in 2014 with zones 1 - 7, then did zones 8-11 in 2015. By working on a few zones at a time, I was able to gain confidence and trust that Lee knew what he was doing. Each zone is dealt with twice, a main treatment followed by a followup treatment a few weeks later. Lee guarantees that 98% of the poison ivy will be eradicated. Indeed, in 2015 Lee returned to zones 1 - 7, killing about 40 additional pop-up plants spread by birds dropping seeds, and one vine he'd missed...all at no additional charge. Lee was able to work on a fixed price basis, zone-by-zone, without ever coming back to the well with a "change order." Thus as the project unfolded, I had a high degree certainty as to the costs. The $8,540 cost above is for the entire project over both 2014 & 2015.
Description of Work: I have a 8 acre property, half of which was over-run with poison ivy, including ancient vines running up a number of trees (and killing them). We divided the property into 11 zones, and over a period of 1 1/2 years, Lee eradicated the poison ivy throughout.

It went very well - I would use him again
Description of Work: Lee took care of all the poisoned ivy on my property which was pretty extensive. I have a lot of garden beds and almost an acre of land. Lee came in and found the poisoned ivy where I did not even know I had it. After he had finished I found more a couple weeks later and he came out and took care of that area as well. Great Job!!

Lee came by promptly, gave a quote that I liked, and performed the first treatment of my Japanese Knotweed infestation the same day. He came back periodically to check on the progress of the treatment every few weeks, then returned to perform a follow up treatment (as planned) and only then after everything was done did he send me a bill. He called before each visit to make sure I knew he would be there and was extremely professional. He's coming back again next summer to perform any residual extermination. I had a great experience working with Lee and would definitely use him again if I needed it (but he's done such a great job I'm not sure if I will!).

Lee came and gave a fixed itemized quote for the services dividing out by areas covered, including cost for killing poison ivy veining up trees. He call before each service date, which he had to be especially flexible with this summer due to persistent interference by the wet weather. There were two service visits, a first pass which killed the veining poison ivy and standing plants, then returned to kill all the volunteers re-sprouting from seed. He was at all times maintained warm and simultaneously professional demeanor, and was very understanding when I lost the first invoice, sending a new copy at my request.
Description of Work: Lee Cooper was contracted to kill poison ivy throughout our property and the adjacent wood lot. Neighborhood kids and pets were at risk from the massive infestation.

It's easy to schedule with Lee. He came in to take a look at the situation, gave me an estimate right away and worked on killing the poison ivy on the spot after I agreed with the quote. The poison ivy started to wilt and die within a week or so. It was overall an easy and pleasant experience.

This is the second time we've hired Lee Cooper to treat poison ivy on our property. The first time was six years ago when we first bought the place, when the property was completely covered in the stuff. This time around it was just to treat a few plants that had sprouted recently, and we thought it would be a good idea for him to do a careful check to make sure we weren't missing anything. In both cases, we were so impressed with how professional, friendly, and committed he is. He is a pleasure to have around while he's here, and we feel completely confident that his work is effective and he'll stand behind it 100%. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend him to any of my friends.

Lee Cooper is very friendly and knowledgeable about poison ivy eradication. He isn't a pushy salesman, but comes across as a supportive educator on the topic. He helped us with an area of our yard that had many p.i. plants. They were thoroughly killed. Lee was very careful to not kill the plants we wanted to keep. He also gave great information about what he uses to spray. This was of significant concern to me since our vegetable garden was very nearby where the poison ivy was.I would use his business again without hesitation.

Lee came right when he said he would, was very professional, spelled out the plan and stuck to it. Our poison ivy was gone within a couple of weeks and we have had a year of working all over the yard with no poison ivy attacks. We especially liked that Lee works in two visits 2 weeks apart to check his work and get what he didn't the first time. We knew after that that he would stick with us on the problem. Great service.
Description of Work: We had persistent poison ivy over about 1/2 of our 1/4 acre lot. This type was especially virulent and had given us bad rashes when we had tried to work in that side of the yard.

Showed up at the house without an appointment. Stated it had to be done right then or he would not be able to do it at all. Felt pressured but had gotten poison ivy rash twice in 3 weeks and have small kids so I was desperate. Stated it needed 2 applications, second one in spring. No idea of this was needed. Showed up the second time without confirming appointment with us and started working on my property without notifying us, despite the fact that we were home. Did not like discovering someone lurking in the brush around my home. Now for the good news. It his work did seem to be effective in the worst areas, though I have not done a thorough search. Don't want to find out the hard way if it was not done right.
