They worked for me awhile ago. They also happen to live in my neighborhood and that is how I know them. My overall experience with them went fine. They also do yard, landscaping and snowballing, etc. They are great and they are very responsive. I would like to give them "A's" across the board.

Nanette Crooker did a great job. She and her assistant arrived when they said they would, knew just what needed weeding, what needed cutting back and did the work in good time. My garden was a mess, and she made it look Winter Ready.

The experience went fine. I scheduled her and she came. I didn't have any problems with her. I think I tried to contact her and she didn't respond.

We found them on Angie's List, called and they've been our regular lawn service since then.
Description of Work: Nanette Crooker Gardens has mowed our lawn for over a year. We've had lawn services for about 20 years and are yard has never looked so good! Their use of standard push mowers makes all the difference!

I am reluctant to post a review because I don't want Nanette and her husband to get so busy with new clients that they no longer have time for my little yard! They are hardworking, good-natured, efficient, honest and conscientious. Their prices are fair and they care about their work. They have done fall and spring clean-ups in my yard for several years and created a beautiful, tiny garden in the front of the house that is flourishing despite my inability to grow things myself. I marked a B in punctuality/responsiveness because they don't always have time to return emails right away -- scheduling is not a precise science, as they try to fit my little job in-between larger projects - and of course weather can be a factor as well. Again, I am always impressed with Nanette's efficient work - They use their time well and it's a pleasure to see the results of their expert labor.
Description of Work: Spring yard clean-up, consultation and advice regarding future work planned in the yard.

They did great on what was done: yard cleanup, large amount of weeding, planting a number of new items, edging by the fences, and cleaned out the front yard planters nicely. The work done was great - I just can't maintain it due to bad knees so need a service that can come out weekly on a set schedule for at least one entire season. After that, for maintenance, they would work out fine.
Description of Work: I was pleased with the work performed overall - the work was done off and on over a period of a few weeks last summer. We had discussed some minor landscaping but it never got that far - I think I was expecting more of a landscaping job but they got too busy to get here often enough. I'm going to try someone new this summer but would certainly use this couple in the future once my yard is more under control.

They came by todo an estimate, we discsused the work needed. I was told we would receive an estimate shortly but one never came. I called and left a message but Nanette never called back. Thats fine to choose not to do the work but an utter failure for professionalism. I don't comprehend why she wouldn't answer the phone, email, or leave a vm saying they didnt wish to pursue the work. Time wasted.

I called the company the day after the big blizzard at approximately 8:30 a.m., and around 10:00 a.m., they called and said they'd be out in a few hours. It took a little longer than that for them to show, but the conditions outside were horrible. They did a wonderful job of the driveway, walk, and decks. Driveway had been made smaller by previous snows. They enlarged it. Very pleasant and professional service.
Description of Work: Cleaned driveway, decks and walk of snow.

She seemed very professional and we had a nice talk about the landscape plan. I liked the plan, her personality and that she is a small business owner. The problem I had was that the work took so long to get started, which was in October. I also was not happy with the size of the bushes because they were much smaller than expected and there was no guarantees on the plants. I hoped that she would of talked to me first regarding the size of the bushes, but she didn't. When I called her and let her know that I was unhappy with the size she didn't offer any type of compensation.
Description of Work: She designed a landscaping plan to install bushes around my house.

Nanette Crooker promptly answered our inquiry, and cheerfully came out to give us an estimate. All we needed was simple garden clean-up work done, not a terribly big job. Nanette and her husband made us a very fair estimate, and did not try to sell us any other services we did not need. They preformed the work as promised, on time, and did a very nice job. I will definitely call her again!

They were responsive and very responsible. They go about handling the lawn and garden stuff with little need for interaction. In general, they do a great job. My only "issue" would be that the landscaping/flowers type stuff that they do is generally not as full or beautiful or gorgeous as I would hope for, it's only OK" looking. But everything gets handled so smoothly, that I'm OK with OK looking, I guess.
Description of Work: Nanette and Casey handled our lawn cutting and yard work on a weekly basis for the whole summer and into the fall, including immaculate fall leaf clean-up and spring clean-up stuff.

Will be selling the house in about a year and a half and wanted to give the yard a little more ''curb appeal.'' Two sections had plants/ground cover that was very old and needed replacing. Other areas just needed to be torn up and reseeded. Was looking for smaller landscape contractor.
Description of Work: Had them replant some areas and tear up and reseed other areas. Also had them reshape some bushes where the people who trimmed them before did not do a very good job.
