Description of Work: They ripped up an existing patio and installed a new one, extending it by a few feet both ways. The owner was prompt & professional. They only do business by phone or in person, so sometimes that was challenging waiting for documents that were sent to the wrong house, but it was rectified immediately by the office and we are thrilled with the quality of our new patio. We had wanted it done by Memorial Day and they were originally booked solid, but the owner accommodated our needs which we really appreciated. I received an estimate from someone else who does patios as a side business and the estimates were identical, so I would say they're pretty competitively priced. The best part is that they had it all done in one day, and I have no clue they were there. Cleaned up everything.

Description of Work: I purchased an Angie's List Big Deal for aeration and seeding. I don't think my yard benefited from the work, though that likely has more to do with my yard than the company. My yard needed more intensive care.

Thanks for taking the time to provide a positive review. I'm sorry the results were not as expected. At the time I provided the quote for lawn renovation, I explained that the yard was very shady and may not improve much from the seeding. Unfortunately it seems I was right. Thanks for trying though. Good Luck. Steve Heiner

Everything worked out well. They did a hand drawn design of my backyard. We had them do some landscaping and sodded some areas as well. The extra work was around $2,000. Their responsiveness was easy and they were easy to schedule with as well. Their ideas were very helpful with what to do with the yard. They impressed me with their work and that is why we hired them to do the landscaping.

I got a cartoon sketch of how the front of my house could be refreshed along with a list of plants. There was no legend letting me know which plants went where. There is an 18 foot span in front of the house and he had 3 small plants listed to go there. I have gotten more comprehensive information with previous contractors.....for free. In addition I got an estimate cost for weeding for 3 employees at $125.00 an hour. ??????? It's not toxic waste, just weeds. $125.00 an hour.......outrageous. There was never a telephone follow up after I received the "plan". This was a terrible waste of money. I don't want to call them to make this right, because I am a firm believer that if it's not close to being right the first time it will never be right. I'm very disappointed with Angie's list for offering this service without checking this company first.

Response from Grass Masters Inc
I'm sorry that we failed to meet your expectations. I assure you that we do not want anyone to feel cheated, and I'm sure Angieslist feels the same way. When you purchase a Big Deal, the total amount is paid to Angieslist, of which we receive a portion. Rather than assume that no one wants to address your concerns, and give a failing grade to both of us on a site that we both rely on to build our reputation, you may have been better served by just contacting either one of us directly. I think you would have been pleasantly surprised by the outcome. Let me say that what you received from the Big Deal offer was exactly what was promised. The "cartoon sketch" you refer to is a hand drawing that actually takes some time to prepare, in addition to the time spent meeting with you and discussing your needs. We hear from customers on a daily basis that they can't even get contractors to return their calls, let alone keep an appointment and provide a drawing. Yes there was a charge for that, but the offer included a coupon for the full amount to be applied to any service provided, so essentially you would receive the consultation free of charge. Let me reiterate that we do not receive the full amount of the offer from Angieslist, so the additional amount of the coupon comes from us. I would also like to discuss your comment about our hourly rate for weeding. Keep in mind that rate per hour was for three men . Many contractors charge that amount per hour per man, not three men. Ours is a professional service that also requires the purchase of trucks, equipment, insurance, uniforms, etc. Our employees are skilled professionals that are very experienced and work efficiently. If given the opportunity,you may have found that our service actually costs less than you expected. Again, I'm sorry that you were less than satisfied with your decision to purchase our Big Deal offer, and I wish you good luck with your project.

He does not require me to pay him until the project is done. He has everything written out exactly what he's going to do for the clean out and for the design.

Grass Masters transformed the front of our house. From beginning to end it was an excellent experience. Mike and his team completed a pavered pathway, pavered hardscaping and customized landscaping. The job was completed within the time frame that was given and we even added landscape lighting at the end of the job. Mike's team is professional, courteous, cleaned up every area and had great communication skills. We will continue to work with Grass Masters in utilizing their lawn treatment programs and additional work we have planned for the remaining areas of our side and back yards. Highly recommend Grass Masters!
Description of Work: Completed pavered pathway from driveway to porch, hardscaped landscaping within the entire front of our house and one side, laid sod and landscaped all front and side beds.

So far it has gone well. I am happy with the results thus far.
Description of Work: I have enrolled in their lawn fertilization and treatment program. They come out every month or so during the spring, summer, and fall and apply fertilizer, pesticide, herbicide, etc. So far they have come out twice and my lawn already looks much better. I am not home when they come, they just leave an invoice describing the service provided and what I need to do to help make the treatment effective (i.e. water after a certain period of time before mowing, etc.) and a flag telling you to stay off of the lawn for 72 hours. So far so good.

Overall, I am glad I selected them and recommend them to anyone. Keep in mind that I have nothing against which to compare the services, but what I do know is that I cannot personally buy all of the materials (fertilizers, etc.) and apply them for the price they charge. Also, it rained more than usual this year, which I'm sure, helped my lawn's recovery progress. Grass Masters comes to the property like clockwork to apply the lawn treatment. All they ask is that you water the lawn a few times per week. My overall experience is EXTREMELY POSITIVE, but you really MUST agree to periodically water the lawn. I will be keeping them in my plans going forward.
Description of Work: My experience so far with Grass Masters has been superb. Angie's List ratings and reviews guided me to try this company. I'm one who uses my instinct for services provided and they didn't fail me here. The initial phone call was very informative and friendly, followed by a same-day visit for an analysis of my lawn. They gave me the feedback that they could help my lawn rather quickly and sounded knowledgeable , so I decided to give them a try. I'm glad I did. I have never used a lawn service previously, but I really had never seen my lawn in such poor condition and I needed help ( my property is 1/4 acre). I actually missed the first application of the year for crabgrass control, but that was not an issue as they started with the 2nd application and mixed in some of the 1st (crabgrass control) but informed me that the emergent crabgrass control would not be as effective as it would have been if applied earlier. This service is so easy and you can modify it at any time. You can get a 10% prepay discount if you pay up front for all desired services (except grass seed in the Fall). I later decided to get the grass seed planting also, which is ~$300 and reflected in my price above. I signed up for all services, which include all fertilizing (5-6 treatments), as well as lime treatment, grub control, core aeration, thatching and Fall grass seeding. You don't have to be home when they arrive for lawn treatments. My favorite part is the information printed on the invoice which clearly provides feedback in enough detail to take action. Give them a try.

The owner came out completed about 80% of the work in October and said as long as I liked it he would come back and finish the job in a few days. I wasn't home when he worked on the water feature. I had to frequently call back to see when the job would be done. It finally got to be too cold to complete the job so it had to wait until the spring. When spring came and it became nicer out I called to see what was going on. I had to call several times before I would receive a call back. When the owner called me back he was extremely rude telling me I was impatient. He finally came to finish the job in late spring and did a horrible job. When I called him he couldn't understand why I was unhappy with the job. It looked like the job was completed in a rush and a child could have done a better job. I told him not to bother coming back and I would complete the job myself. I would NEVER use this company again. I have a neighbor who was also not happy with his work and timeliness.
Description of Work: Grass Masters was to install a water feature in our back yard. The water feature was a small waterfall surrounded in slate. The small pond was surrounded with river rocks and there was to be a few plantings. The owner came out gave us an estimate and even came back to answer questions. I hired them to perform the job in October.

Unfortunately,sometimes customers do have unrealistic expectations and are impatient. Fortunately we do not come across this too often. The job was completed as specified on the proposal, and in the time frame specified, We did have to wait for temperatures suitable to complete the job. If we did not, you would have complained that it was not done properly. This was an example of damned if we did, and damned if we didn't. We returned several phone calls to let you know that it wasn't warm enough yet for the silicone to adhere properly. Sometimes you do have to let a customer know they are being a bit too impatient. This will usually be interpreted as a rude response. That was never our intention however.Sorry if we did not meet your expectations. I hope you are enjoying your pond.
