Amazing! Dave (Mr Mow), and Brandon the landscaper are super. We've been very happy with Dave doing the lawn this year--easy to email him and he's really responsive. When we mentioned our interest in landscaping Dave came out the same week and back with Brandon to measure and develop a proposal and plan. We called refs who raved. The whole thing was planned and executed within 3 weeks of first discussing it. Brandon communicated his ideas, details, costs and worked hard to keep within our budget, vision and to make recommendations that met our need to keep the landscaping low maintenance and do the work in phases. Our young son loved the bobcat, the dump truck and the guys let him check it all out and help. Talk about being accommodating, these guys are gems hard-working, honest and easy to work with. Landscaping is never cheap yet estimate was less than a bid (without stone) from another group 3 years ago. They even showed up 2 days early to start! We hope to do phase 2 in spring.
Description of Work: Developed a plan then brought in bobcat to dig out, remove trees/bushes/small stumps, old edging, overgrowth, till soil in 2 large backyard areas. Placed new edging, fabric, a dump truck full of mulch, 6 large boulders, laid a natural stone path to a bench (not yet purchased), planted a new tree, arbor vitae, bushes, junipers, hosta, hydrangeas. Hauled all old brush/edging away.

I emailed Dave late one evening and had a reply on my computer early the next morning. I emailed back and he mowed my lawn that morning. My husband was amazed. He has been after me to find someone to take care of the lawn, but I had been too busy to really do a good job of looking.
Description of Work: Dave does both lawn care and mowing. He has mowed our lawn two times now. He is very complete and pleasant to boot.

Brandon did a good job. It was not easy to access the pile between houses so he needed to do much of the work by hand. I needed to find someone quickly with our house going on the market soon and Dave responded quickly and they got the job done when promised!

I kept asking for info on what Dave used for ''weed & feed'' treatment and he never answered. I wanted this info before I asked for the service -- but then I found out on my first (and last) bill that his co. supposedly did the ''weed & feed'' treatment once weeks earlier! I asked again about it and he confirmed that he did apply trtmt -- despite no evidence of said treatment. I.e., weeds are proliferating and lawn looks no greener than before. So it's hard for me to believe that (A)my lawn really was treated, or (B) that whatever product he uses is successful. I still don't know what he used! 2nd complaint: his mower always ''forgot'' to trim edges near fence, etc. I asked first if that was included in service and Dave said yes. Since his worker kept missing the trimming, I cancelled service after paying bill in full. 3rd complaint: mower didn't show up when he said he would (Wednesdays); came whenever he wanted/didn't tell me in advance.
Description of Work: Lawn mowing for one month plus one treatment ''weed & feed.''

I had to seek a lawn service after injuring my knee last year but had trouble finding someone who was willing to mow our half-acre lawn, which was also weedy and neglected. Dave came out promptly to do an estimate, and I was surprised by its reasonable price. He did a great job on the initial mowing, which I feared would clog the most powerful mower. He also took a weed whacker to the grass growing, along our neighbor's chain link fence, trimmed around shrubs and trees, and edged my shaggy flower beds. In addition, he is always courteous and professional over the phone, even when you can tell you caught him in the middle of a busy day. I recommend him highly.
Description of Work: They did weekly mowing of a very large yard, including trimming, edging, and cleanup of clippings and miscellaneous debris. The amount paid refers to one month's work.

Dave is pleasant and replied promptly to my initial call. It was a little difficult getting started. I had to call Dave a couple of times when he said the lawn would be mowed on a certain day, and then no one showed up. However, after the first two weeks, they come every Friday. The work is fantastic. They not only mow the lawn but clean up all the edges and trim weedy areas each week.

They gave me a four hour window in which they were supposed to be out, but did not show up. I called back the next day, and couldn't get through, their mailbox was full. I finally left a message, and when I spoke to them they didn't really have any reason, they just said they'd be out within two hours. They did not show up or call in that time frame either.

WE RECEIVED THIS CALL DURING THE 12 INCH SNOWFALL IN EARLY MARCH. WE PROBABLY SHOULD HAVE SAID WE COULDN'T HELP, BUT TRIED TO HELP THEM OUT. WE WERE UNDER THE IMPRESSION WE CLEARED THEIR PROPERTY, BUT WE HAD THE WRONG ADDRESS. WE DID COME BACK THE NEXT TIME PROMTPLY.

I was satisfied with the lawn mowing, but this has been an AWFUL experience. I have canceled my contract and would NOT recommend them!
Description of Work: I contracted with Dave for snow removal for a monthly fee of $75 beginning in late fall 2005. There have been only two heavy snowfalls, one on December 29th, and one today, March 13th. On both days, Dave was a complete no-show. I have a service because I have a bad back and strained my back both times shoveling the very heavy snow. Obviously I would also have been working at it as it came down, had I known that the service would not show up. Dave was very hard to reach after the first incident, but contacted me to say he had been out of the country and was very apologetic. I agreed to give him another chance and the same thing has just happened.

Mr. Mow is a throwback to good old fashioned service - friendly, polite and always very prompt! The men who mowed my lawn were very well-spoken and well dressed. They return calls very quickly and addressed any questions or concerns that I had with the utmost respect for my needs. They cleaned up after themselves and never left anything out of place. It was great to come home to find my lawn in perfect order after work. Reliability is so essential. Mr. Mow goes above and beyond. You can't go wrong!
Description of Work: Mr. Mow came on a weekly basis and mowed my lawn and trimmed the edges of the grass. At various times during the summer I had them trim bushes and trees as well perform spring and fall clean-up.
