From what I was told in my initial conversation via telephone with Terry, I expected more than I got. I called for an estimate and was told $35 for mowing, trimming and edging. I was also informed that the service would include Round-Up treatment of the sidewalks and driveways. I was also told that it would be $5 per cutting for them to use the small mower rather than the "double-wide" that another company used and left gouges in my lawn. I called back the following Monday to schedule the weekly service and the first week's worth was completed by Wednesday afternoon. No Round-Up was used on the sidewalks (there are still green clumps of grass between the slabs); the trimming was inconsistent with a number of tall clumps left inside the fence and around some planters; the edging along walkways and the driveway wasn't as nice as I was given the impression it would be; and an area of approximately 4'x6' between two planting beds wasn't even cut. Even though there were inconsistencies, the responsiveness and work that was performed was miles above the last service I had to fire.
Description of Work: Weekly lawn mowing, edging, and trimming.

I would recommend this company to anyone.
Description of Work: I have been using this company to mow my lawn for 2 years now, they are very friendly and do a great job. This fall I hired them to remove the leaves from my lawn and clean my gutters, again they did a great job.

There is no complaint except leaving the gate open several times so that my dog can escape. That problem has been solved so far. Also recently they mowed on a very wet day and their large commercial tires made tracks in my lawn. I called and reported this. I doubt if it will happen again. I pay on a weekly basis so I know whether the hill has been mowed or not.
Description of Work: Your questions are not phrased properly. I cannot give you one date or one price. Genuine Lawn has been mowing my lawn since at least 2008. I have been paying $35 per week for front and back lawn. If they do the hill it's an extra $25 and they do that every other week.

Great - they are fast, thereby keeping my cost down (they charge by the time required to vaccuum leaves).
Description of Work: Genuine vaccuumed leaves in my front yard. This is the third year they have vaccuumed for me. They have been consistently reliable to do the work when promised for a very reasonable price. I'll be using them again next year!

They quoted us $100 to remove the leaves from our quarter acre lot. I thought the price sounded a little high but we needed the leaves removed so we went with them. Thinking back to when I was a kid picking up leaves, I couldn?t image earning $100 and I?m sure I could pay a kid a lot less to do the job. My parents happen to be at the house when they came to do the job and I found out what an excellent job they did. When kids rake your yard they get most of the leaves, but there was not a leaf to be found anywhere on our property once they were gone. My parents said there were three guys that showed up and did the work. It?s a fair price and not at all a ripoff so I was very happy with them. When I called to have them do it, they were very professional. The person who answered the phone explained exactly what they would do and gave a time range of how long it would be before they showed up. Everything was exactly as what I would have expected except that I didn?t anticipate that they would remove every single leaf! It?s not like pulling a rake around your yard, it?s way beyond that. I am very happy with them and I?ve put their number in my phone so I can call them again next year.

I've described above. Suffice it to say that I am still using Genuine Lawn for all my yard maintenance.
Description of Work: Terry has done my mowing and some trimming of shrubs now for several years. I pay $35 for front and back yards and an extra $25 for a hill beyond my fence that leads to the street. I have it done every other time. Very difficult to say how much bush trimming was as they are different each time. Mostly I think I am getting fair prices but without bids, I really don't know. My only complaint is he hires different teams and some of them leave my gate open that allows my dog to escape if I don't check it each time they leave. Sometimes I forget. I've mentioned this to Terry and he instructs his men but they still forget.

Terry came out and gave me a bid to trim all the bushes and small trees around my property. He was out within 2 weeks to do the work. He thought it would take a day and a half because there was so much to do and they ended up finishing the 1st day. Not only did they trim all the bushes, and small trees, but they did trim work around my lawn and got rid of the branch that had fallen in a recent storm. I was very pleased with their work and will use them again.
Description of Work: They trimmed back overgrown bushes, trimmed small trees, and trimmed the ivy.

I've called and asked them to edge and raise the mower, but they haven't done it. They have been courteous on the phone. They just haven't done things exactly like I've wanted them done.

They did a nice job. They came out when they said they would. The final cost actually came in lower than the estimate they gave me. I would use them again for future service.

Terry and his crew installed approximately 7 pallets of fescue. Prior to the installation, they took the time to prepare the soil using a power rake. They paid close attention to detail and worked with care as if they were working on their own yards. I was and still am very pleased with the results.

Called in November for a bid for leaf removal, they called back within the week to let me know the bid and added that they could clean out the gutters as well. Said they would be over to do the work in a week, then we had an ice storm and I thought they had forgotten about us. A month later after we had thawed out a little, they did the job. It looked great after it was done. I only wished I had called them sooner.
Description of Work: Removed all the leaves from front, side and back yard. Cleaned out all the gutters. Job was done in early January 2007.

I called to schedule an estimate. Terry came out and provided me with the estimate within a few days. He actually came on a Sunday. I called to schedule the work later that week and they told me it would be 2 weeks, 3 weeks at the most based on weather. I called to follow up about 2 weeks later since I hadn't heard from them. They told me it should be sometime that week. I was told they would call the night before they came because I wanted them to spread some additional weed killer before they mulched. When I came home from work one day, a thick layer of mulch had been put down in the bed like I had hoped. I don't feel the weeds had been pulled as thoroughly as I would have liked, but the majority of the weeds were gone. Unfortunately, I had not left out the weed killer for them to spread. Overall, they did a very good job mulching and were able to come within a reasonable amount of time and provided me with a fair price.
Description of Work: Weeded and mulched large flower beds in the yard.
