No issues. Work is typically performed in a professional and timely manner.
Description of Work: We use Natural Way annually for all of our lawn and tree maintenance. Services are listed by each application in the winter preceding the application season. We are able to add/delete any services and Natural Way goes from there. We do not need to be home or schedule the work. A little pricey on the fertilizer - about $65 per application - but we do have about 8,000 sf of lawn.

They do an excellent job! Would recommend them to anyone who wants these types of services at very reasonable prices!
Description of Work: Natural Lawn gives us 4 fertilizations per year, per our request: we hired them to begin with because they were willing to do only the basic 4 applications per year. We didn't feel any more than that was necessary. Our grass looks beautiful Neighbors walking by always compliments us on the plush lawn that we have. We also have them do outside pest control via spraying the perimeter of our house which keeps pests out of our house.

I have been pretty happy with my lawn service overall, however I used to get personalized messages about my lawn condition when I started with the company, and I noticed that this no longer occurs. I get generic statements hung on my door. This was an indicator that the quality of customer service was falling, but lets get real- I just want a lawn service that uses more environmentally friendly products to make my lawn look bangin'. My tenants at my other property called me very upset last night stating that they are infesting with "flying ants". Without getting into the details, the company basically jerked me around all morning only to tell me (after three hours of waiting to hear back from them and me having to initiate further communications) that they would get to me within a few business days. Obviously, open ended scheduling was not going to work in this situation. I noted that since I was a pest control customer, I expected a more timely response as their work is guaranteed. Then they told me that the exterior spray )that was scheduled for an in-determinant number of business days from now) would not in fact solve the issue of flying ants and was therefore not covered. Um, what? Why would I want this? Having told them about the flying ants from the beginning, I questioned the entire process and lack of tangible solutions that they were providing me. The people I spoke with were nice enough, but their customer response policy is below my expectations. I called another pest control company, and the woman on the phone called her service technicians to see if someone could help me ASAP. When we hung up the phone, I had a solid date on the calendar. I didn't have to call back. I didn't have to beg, barter or steal. She just listened to my problem and gave me an immediate solution. It's not astrophysics... So it was then that I decided that Natural Way and I needed to part ways for all business dealings. I want a company that stands by its work and helps me with urgent issues an in effective and timely fashion. I no longer feel that Natural Way fulfills either of these requirements. The lawn fertilization has been fine. Is it safe for your kids to eat? I can't answer that because mine haven't tasted it. My dog didn't die from it so I guess that is a plus. My lawn looks nice, but I am pretty sure any number of companies can get you there. I spent a significant amount of money with Natural Way over these last few years and I expected a higher level of service from them than what I received. So I left.
Description of Work: I have used Natural way for 3 years for lawn fertilization at my home. I also began using their pest control services this year for a rental property.

Response from Natural Way Lawn & Tree Service
I'm very sorry we have lost your business, and I am concerned that you feel our response to your service issue was inadequate. While we have been performing exterior pest treatments at your rental property, the presence of a number of winged ants in the interior raises a number of immediate concerns regarding an inside infestation - winged ants are released from the nests in late summer and early fall, and while it is possible that one or two may fly into a home, several point to the strong possibility of a nest inside the walls of your rental home. Scheduling a retreatment of the exterior of your home, which easily could have been performed that day, may have been appeasing, but possibly ineffective. We did schedule to have our pest control manager perform an interior inspection and treatment to rectify the problem at no additional charge, within two business days at our earliest availability, a service we typically charge for. This should have been fully explained; instead it wasn't until the time you were cancelling, and it clearly led to you feeling we were giving you the run around. We should have communicated our plan of response with you. We should have followed up with you, instead of leaving you in the dark. I appreciate the thoroughness of your review; I do believe that the customer service we provide must be equal to the quality of service we provide, and apologize that in this instance in was not satisfactory.

Response from Natural Way Lawn & Tree Service
We're sorry that you were not satisfied with the last application we performed for you. Over the several years and 35 applications you have been a customer of Natural Way, this is the second time we have had an issue with your lawn browning. The first was in 2012, another extremely hot summer, and was due to drought and heat stress. We don't know what caused it this year, because we require your permission to come out and diagnose the issue. Many, many lawns went dormant this summer, but we can't tell you if that's the cause or if it was due to a misapplication of our products. If we damage it, we fix it - period. We would be happy to come out and assess your property, make recommendations, and if it is on us, remedy this for you.

Very Good - They took (basically) weeds and some grass (with tons of insects) and made it a beautiful lawn. It took a year, but it was worth it. I have a very large lawn, so it does cost $130 an application. However, I know they are very affordable for smaller lawns.

After last application I had several stripes of burnt out lawn in the pattern of most likely what the technician would travel. When I called for a consult the mgr came out and we were told it was from our mowing and/or walking on the lawn. The pattern of burn out was not where we walk nor how we mow the lawn. Then he said it was from heat stress due to the wheels of the spreader when the technician applied. I was told I needed another treatment caused by the burn out....and now I have a stripped yard. And asked to pay more $. I've asked for a refund from my prepd acct, minus a $ 35 fee, so I'm being penalized for the technician's error. Cancelled acct. A professional company would admit they made a mistake, try to remedy as best they could and not want to charge me more for their error. But according to the mgr we caused the issue. I've written good reviews on this company in the past, but the lack of customer service and honestly leads me to believe they have changed their mgmt and how they work......let's do things as cheap as possible with no customer service. I also used them for insect control and they did a good job.

Not good. They ignored a direct phone request of mine. I was out of town for several days and my yard was extremely dry and stressed due to my irrigation system being brojen. I arrived home to see their technician finishing up an application of fertilizer and grub control plus one other application. My grass was burnt in several areas afterwards. I canceled my service.

Your review is not embellished in any shape or form, and is entirely accurate - furthermore our service response to you was inexcusable. It is extremely disappointing that we made this mistake, and I apologize for our error. It is frankly embarrassing that we have made such a basic, and avoidable, mistake. My role here is not simply to respond to customer service issues or to remedy them after the fact, but to prevent them as well, so I am personally sorry here. Although you sent payment in, I cannot in good conscience keep payment for a service you specifically requested we not perform, and will refund you immediately. Please give me a call if you would like to discuss this further.

This is the second season with them, and i discontinued the service. In 2015, I prepaid for teh service, and while not perfect, my lawn looked healthy. I called several times regarding weeds, and although they left signs saying weeds were treated, they never seemed to get ahead of the weeds. In 2016, I did NOT prepay; they applied a spring fertilizer and per-emergent, and the grass was green, however, I had many broad leaf weeds and dandelions in the grass; May 21, 2016: An account manager (Greg) came out ; He and I walked the lawn, discussed the problems (broad leaf weeds, creeping charlie, wild violet, etc). I explained that I was willing to PAY to have the weeds treated over and above the cost of the fertilization - I asked for a quote; he stated that he would spray that day, and would follow up in 2 weeks to see how things looked. June 15, 2016: Grub Control and fertilizer applied; My lawn has deteriorated severely since that treatment; I NOW have yellow spots and dead areas that were green before the application; Weeds are still prevalent and thriving; So much so that on June 24th I cancelled my service. At this point I cannot recommend them; it seems (based on their radio advertising) that they are focused on growing the customer base, but not focusing on their product. I will be fertilizing the lawn myself for the rest of the season in an attempt to bring it back to a reasonable level.

Service techs courteous and knowledgable. Office staff argumentative and nasty in call Mon May 23. Field manager was great. Office schedule service after I cancelled it despite manager's promise of call with service alternatives. Office apparently not interested in customer retention.
Description of Work: Stopped service to save money as front lawn thin. Service manager met with me to modify service. Office to call with revised service plan. No call. Technician fertilizes on day I was to do yard work leaving bill 150% of earlier bill. Office explanation, they left a message in April. My job to call them. I prepaid for years. Also not there job to call to see why. Good operations people. Office not customer service oriented. 3 other companies making multiple contacts for my business

It went great and we've seen no ants since. We did purchase the annual contract with quarterly visits and look forward to seeing Natural Way Lawn, Tree, and Pest Service again in August. I am considering them for a lawn fertilizer program as well.
Description of Work: Our technician was great and assisted us in identifying the source and nesting area of horrible carpenter ants. He even coordinated scheduling with our roofers (also from Angie's List) to work together to identify the ants' entry point into the house.He diligently sprayed places on the roof and surrounding bricks as well as on the ground perimeter. These folks are very honest and professional. Our technician really knows his stuff.

Based on the interior/exterior inspection, they believe the carpenter ants are somewhere on the roof and solving the problem would require a professional roofer and roof inspection ... including potential removal of shingles and underlayment. They do not offer this service because they cannot replace the roofing materials once removed. I believe this was a very honest and fair assessment, as I don't want to have a bigger problem than I have now. The technician advised they could coordinate work with a roofer if we could arrange for them to be there same-day. Because nothing was done, I was not charged the $49 fee which was also very fair and I appreciate that. I will use this company again if the need arises.
Description of Work: I bought the $49 perimeter pest control treatment because I have been seeing carpenter ants. The company talked with me via phone and came to my home.

We do have to call back every now and then because they've missed parts. I call them once and they came. They were punctual. I called them asking for an arborist to come out and they sent somebody who told me that our 30 year old tree which had been doing very well for the past 30 years wasn't getting enough sunlight and that was the problem with it and I didn't think so. So I question sometimes how well trained some of the people are. They seem sometimes to be trained to solve a service rather than diagnose a problem. The people that come out and do our lawn do a nice job. I don't think they are the first company I'd call if I were having a plant or tree problem. They are a little pricier than some of the others.
