How long and how much money is enough for a nice lawn? I paid MRW Lawn Service over $2000 and gave them almost a year to achieve satisfactory results – after 10 months. with too many weeds and several bare spots I gave up. I learned my lesson and cancelled. I regret I ever started their pricy and less than satisfactory lawn service. I had hired MRW Lawn Service to provide lawn care services which included soil testing, fertilization, weed control, grub control, seeding and Core/Slice combo renovation. I recognized that results take time, so I stuck with MRW for almost one-year hoping to see the results their representative had promised. Unfortunately, the results from all the treatments applied by MWR were unsatisfactory. The primary issues of concern were weeds and bare spots.

These guys are AMAZING!! Great customer service! We’ve used other locally popular lawn care services, that seem to simply, “zip over,” our lawn with minimal application, with to no effect! MRW takes their time and THEY USE VERY EFFECTIVE LAWN CARE PRODUCTS THAT ACTUALLY WORK! WE HIGHLY RECOMMEND MRW!!

Super, Jacob, the technician ensured he treated the entire lawn. Additionally, during his inspection he noticed damage from surface feeding insects and treated the lawn and surrounding trees to prevent further harm to the lawn. He also spot treated for broadleaf weeds and nutsedge as well as made recommendations on how to continually maintain my lawn. Appreciate his thoroughness and care.

So far so good; I am pleased with their service. The technicians have been great, very punctual and responsive and performed their job with excellence. I expect to see the fruit of their labor come spring. The office staff has also been very helpful.

My lawn was a mess, and had large bald spots. MRW Lawns brought my lawn back to life again, and I'm loving it! The staff that I've communicated with (by email or by phone) are always professional and nice.

Have used MRW for quite a few years now and our yard has never looked better. Service guys are always professional and let us know if there are any issues we need to be concerned about. Feel their service is well priced compared to larger, national companies and appreciate the more personal approach they take being a locally owned company. Communication is pretty good when it comes to servicing appointments as well. Would recommend them every day of the week!

The company representatives and technicians are professional and knowledgable. They do a fantastic job.
Description of Work: We hired MRW in July because we were unhappy with our previous service provider. They throughly explained their lawn program and inspected our lawn, and performed soil testing. We identified problem areas and they explained treatments that would benefit our lawn. They applied weed and insect control, and core/slice seeding. Within a two month period, there has been a visable improvement in the conditon of our lawn. The improvement is amazing.

I get it about eight treatments a year. I have a contract with them. They’re good. I’ve had them for fifteen years maybe, and I have the prettiest front yard in the neighborhood. I always wish they were cheaper, but what can you do? Well, you don’t know what day they are coming, so they’re punctual. I wouldn’t know if they were late or not.

Everything went well. What impressed me the most is that they do not maintain lawns (mowing, cleaning, etc); I wanted a service that would be only fertilization and seeding. The representatives assisted us in the field and at the home company were personable, knowledgeable and professional. I thought they were a little expensive but I am hopeful the overall results will be worth the cost.

MRW "installed" my lawn and has maintained it for over 20 years. They do a great job and my green, thick, healthy lawn is the envy of the neighborhood. The price for their services is a great value over trying to do the same work myself. They get the timing right and the result is a lawn that I only need to water and mow.

They are responsive. The service is better than most. They are somewhat costly, but its worth it. I also used them for outside pest control, but they came and sprayed everything they could find. I just wanted them to spray the outside perimeters of the house. The pest control service was stopped immediately.

They were able to get some grass to grow, were prompt, but, in the process they tried to sell me more services that I thought should have beeen considered up front! Other than that they are good to work with and you get what you pay for, I guess!

Cost show is the seasonal cost for basic lawn care and is based on the size of your yard. There are other services you can add on dependent on your specific needs.
Description of Work: My husband and I have been trying for years to get a green lawn free of crabgrass, dandelions, mole holes, etc. We spent lots of money at the local home stores and wholesale stores season in and season out only to have no visible results. Since we started using MRW Lawns, Inc. for our lawn care service, our lawn has become the envy of the neighborhood. My husband loves hearing the compliments from the walkers around the circle. He keeps the little "MRW" sign out letting everyone know who's responsible for it. We highly recommend MRW Lawns, Inc. to all our family and friends who are fed up with trying on their own with no success. They do the work so we don't have to anymore.

My lawn has never looked this good. I've been in my house for 10 years and I thought I had tried everything to get my lawn where I wanted it. I hired MRW Lawns, Inc. and guess what, my lawn is lush, thick, dark green, missing weeds, and gorgeous! I am so very happy.

Having recently moved from the Waldorf, MD area, I thought it was really important to give my thanks and public recognition to Wayne and the good people at MRW Lawns who cared for my lawn over a period of 15 years. They provided a full course of 5-6 treatments throughout the growing season. We periodically used their other services, such as soil chemical analysis, lawn dethatching, core aeration, and over-seeding. There was never any nagging pressure to up-sell their services. They always came when scheduled, didn't leave fertilizer pellets all over the pavement, and were courteous and professional in every possible way. With simple cutting the lawn always looked green and healthy. Even in the dry summers the deep rooted turf came back to green with a good rain. I couldn't be happier with the care and value I received from MRW. Although MRW was not the FIRST lawn service we used over the years, they certainly were both the BEST and LAST.
Description of Work: MRW provided complete lawn fertilizer and weed control service for approximately 15 years at my Waldorf residence. The cost noted above was the approximate annual price for their seasonal basic service package. Other services were at additional costs.
