They were prompt regarding the scheduling and we have noticed a marked decrease in bugs both inside and outside of our house. We would use this service again.

They planned and applied a program of treatments to feed and weed our lawn, and it has never looked better. Not perfect yet, but the improvement over last year is significant and I'm sure it will continue to improve under Independent Lawn Service's care.

I bought the deal in the winter. They applied before the weed killer would take effect, so when I called and complained of this, they graciously agreed to reapply and did so at my convenience. They do a superb, efficient, quick application and we had great results. I have no problem recommending them to anyone.
Description of Work: Fertilized and applied weed preventative and insect barrier around house. Pleasant to deal with. Graciously reapplied as their first application was applied before weeds were actively growing and thus failed. Easy to deal with and did a very good job.

I have been using them for several years and I have been very happy with them. They have always been professional and they let me know when they are coming. When they put the fertilizer down, they are always conscious and put signs around the yard, saying, ‘do not let the dogs out’ or ‘do not let children out for twenty-four hours’. They have been courteous and dependable. The price was fair.

We purchased the Big Deal and then contacted them to schedule the appointment. Our schedules conflicted a lot. Finally when they came out, they offered more add on which we purchased but they did not work. They informed me that if I wanted to have them come out and redo it, they would. I contacted them to have them come back out and they said they could not because I was no longer paying the monthly fee.

They've been out several times and I asked why I have weeds all over in my lawn. We even have new weeds that I have never seen before. He kind of snapped at me and said I need to weed my flower bed. When I called the office to talk to them they said the same thing. I told them I didn't have to weed my flower bed to have no weeds in my lawn with other companies but that didn't change anything. They also really tried to push grub prevention even though they saw no evidence of grubs in my lawn or the neighborhood in general. They just said it was for prevention. They then agreed that I was correct and it was pointless.

Earlier today we visited your property and we called to discuss your review. Prior to the call we checked our records for all calls to our office regarding the lawn and the previous lawn condition notifications given when our technician visited your property. Previously, we noted that there had been insect damage from prior years, a lack of watering, weeds and ground cover growing into the lawn from the flower beds, sod webworm activity and we recommended more frequent mowing. These were discussed again today and we recommended an insecticide for the sod webworm, a fall aeration with over seed to help fill in the many damaged and bare areas of the lawn, removal of weeds from the beds and more frequent mowings. As always, it is very important to review the recommendations given by our technicians and to react to them; we encourage our customers to call with any concerns or questions about their lawn or the visits we make. In addition, if any deterioration in the lawn is noted by the property owner between our applications we ask that they notify us immediately. A service call will be initiated and a visit to determine the cause and recommended action is scheduled. We await your call as you determine the actions you would like us to take.

It went very well. I purchased seven treatments or something for the whole year. The big deal was just for one treatment but I got the whole years treatment so it was $212 for repeated treatments. They just come out and leave the signs on my lawn.

I think it went well. They came two weeks after the purchase. They did charge me additional because my lawn was too big, so they charged me another $79. They were good and I liked it. I ended up paying more money but I did agree.

The service went well. The analysis was general and gave me some suggestions. They did kill the weeds in the grass so that was helpful. They provided some options for regular maintenance package to see a difference in the lawn. I opted not to do the regular maintenance but appreciated their information.

My grass looks better than its looked in a long time despite using some of the top names in the field in the past. As I stated before the prices are extremely reasonable and they offer a pre-pay discount. Addtionally, the company answers and responds to calls in a timely manner. I will be using this company for the unforeseeable future.
Description of Work: I have no complaints concerning Independent Lawn Service. I purchased a coupon from Angie's List which was $79 for a spring aeration of my lawn and one fertilizer treatment. That was a great deal as aerations can be expensive. After taking advantage of this offer, I signed up for them to perform my annual lawn service. Their prices are extremely reasonable compared to Tru Green and Scott's (both of which I have used in the past).

They did a good job doing the work and they do have some discounts for a full season. They did tend to be a bit pushy about the aeration but I could not be home at the time and the sprinkler lines were not marked. I think the person scheduling this is a bit pushy but other than that, I have had good care. My only beef is that I am not in their "grass cutting area", which is odd because I am not that far away. I still have to have one company to cut the grass, one to weed and feed the grass and another one to do the sprinkler system.
Description of Work: I have had Independent Lawn service "rehabilitate" my lawn after I had someone else try to do the weeding and feeding. The other company cuts my grass and I wanted one company doing it all. Independent does very good work and my grass looked better the first year and is getting better each season.

Thank you for leaving a good response on here for other members to read. I wish you were in our service area for cutting but unfortunately you are not. we only cut in a very small area. We will continue to do great work for you with the services we do provide for you. If you ever need a referral for a good grass cutting company let us know we can assist you with finding one.
