I engaged Turf Doctor to reseed a portion of my lawn and perform services to suppress weeds and nurture growth of my lawn which, under my un-expert care, was suffering. I am in the third year with them, and COULD NOT BE MORE IMPRESSED. The dandelions which totally covered my lawn were gone the first season. The wild orchid, which I have battled year over year with RoundUp, is finally overcome by strong grass growth that has suppressed what was quickly becoming a chronic issue, and the lawn as a whole is a different being than it was just two years ago. All this was accomplished with a team that worked with me, disallowed me to over schedule treatments that would stress the lawn, lowered the cost I'd previously paid per treatment, and worked with me to treat - if you'll allow me - my lawn with respect. I am astounded with the results and cannot - in any way - over recommend Turf Doctor. They are simply the best. This is my second review of this firm (first in 2017) but felt it needed to be expressed because of the truly remarkable results I have had. Love, love, love Turf Doctor!

He came on time and sprayed entire area (approx. 1.33 acres of lawn) while walking the grounds dragging the hose (the normal powered cart had different solution in it). He did a great job. Will hire again.

It went very well! I contacted the firm for a quote, which they provided within a few days for both seeding of an area in my yard and weed control, as I had been doing it myself and it was beginning to show. The prices came in lower than I anticipated, and the weed control is lower than the price I paid several firms 10+ years ago per application. I needed additional soil for some landscaping I was doing myself, and asked whether they would deliver extra (for which I would pay, of course), and they were very accommodating, not only delivering it, but the crew dumped it in the area I needed it - not on the driveway or grass somewhere. The reseeding job was expertly done, and within days I could see results. It's come in lush and been mowed twice, and I would never have achieved this result on my own. Great job! As for the weed control, they have come out twice, and the first time they applied a granular substance. I was happily surprised to hear the hum of a blower, which was the workman using a leaf blower to blow the errant granules off my deck, sidewalks, patio and driveway. Nice attention to detail. The price I paid (below, approx.) includes the reseeding and 2 lawn applications.

Tom's services are excellent. Several people in my neighborhood use him. My neighbors on either side, however, do not and chose a "national" lawn spray service. I chuckle every summer as I have two yellow greenish lawns beside my beautiful dark green lawn. Seriously..mine looks like turf. Tom will send a report each year with recommended services including insect control such as grubs. Can't ask for more and the price is reasonable.

He is very good. Excellent. His pricing is good, considering other offers that I have. He is very fair in his pricing. There was one worker, and he does liquid, or spreader. Takes about an half hour, or less. Excellent. He brought my lawn back from pretty bad yellowing, its lush and green. I had an line dug from the gas company, and he came back, and brought it back up.

Tom was great! It took us a little bit to decide on having grass, (debated on sod), but I'm glad we did. Tom was quick, and easy to work with. He arranged for everything to be taken care of while we were at work. They cleaned up after themselves, and we even had grass within a few weeks. We were expecting it to take a few years, and within a few months of continual watering and lots of sun, we were able to have a green back yard. We can't wait until this spring, we hope the follow-up treatments will help the grass continue to grow, and soon a lush think grass will be in place where there once was an inground pool. In addition Tom has been great with the dog, notifying us ahead of time so that we can lock the dog door so she's not exposed to the chemicals.

for weeds and one for fertilizer, and he came out the next week. I'm pleased with the results thus far. I will use him again next year. His price was in the same range as other companies I checked with.
Description of Work: The Turf Doctor came out and walked me through my yard, pointing out various weeds and problems. He seemed very knowledgeable but was not at all pushy ("You need this extra treatment, and this extra one, etc."). I contracted with him for two treatments this past fall, one

We have only had one treatment so far and it is too soon to comment on quality, but I don't have any complaints. This company services a number of homes in our neighborhood. Three of our closest neighbors have been using Turf Doctor for a couple of years now and their lawns look great. I'm hoping that our weeds will diminish over the next few months and that our grub/insect problem won't be an issue next year.
Description of Work: Lawn treatment plan for 1 year that includes five visits during early spring, late spring, early summer, late summer, and fall. Plan was customized with fertilizer, herbicide, fungicide, and insecticide treatments to address our problem areas (weeds, grubs/insects, snow mold, etc.).

Description of Work: I have a yearly maintenance agreement with the company to treat my yard four times per year. On the most recent visit, they applied fertilizer, added grass seed to some bare spots and treated the lawn for weeds.
