I had Perfection for 3 years. They were okay, had some concerns. The only time my lawn was done mostly right was when the owner cut my lawn. I got a phone message saying that they were over whelmed with business, and they were dropping me from their schedule. I am retired and couldn't afford every week, they were cutting every 2 week, only last year. So, since I couldn't afford every week, they dropped me. They are SUPPOSEDLY a very religious family. Who would do that? I hate they did that, I thought they were good people, but apparently I wasn't worth it to them.

It depends on who comes out. The owner came out last time and did it and he does very well. He takes it serious. Sometimes there are younger guys, they do their job but that is exactly what they do, just do their job. Galen, the owner is more of a perfectionist which really makes sense. They are a decent company. They are reliable.

They did the mowing and did a good job. I have no complaints about the level of service I received. I just did not expect it to be that expensive.
Description of Work: I underwent surgery and was not able to mow alone so it was a quick decision to hire them. They did good work but it was quite expensive in my opinion. The surgery was unexpected so i did NOT shop prior to it. I needed my lawn mowed on a regular basis for a few months.

My mother is 82 and fanatical about her lawn and has always taken care of it herself...until she fell and broke her hip in early March. I knew that not being able to take care of her pride and joy would weigh on her and began the hunt for an honest, reasonable and reliable lawn service and found it in Perfection Lawns. The owner returned her call the same day and after hours. He came out the next day and quoted her $46 a week and explained how he ran his company and told her about the young men would be showing up to mow/trim her yard. As we get into summer and the grass doesn't grow as much, they'd cut back to every other week. She has a large yard and it's done with no muss and no fuss in about half an hour by two young men. They bill for service, monthly. They don't lower the deck on the mowers as much as my mother would, but the yard looks beautiful, they alter the direction that they cut it and leave no mess. Highly recommend. I was worried about being able to trust someone coming out to her home and maintaining the yard to her level of satisfaction. I needn't have worried - it's worked out beautifully!

I believe in letting the workers alone to do their work. If the work in not what I expect I will not have them back. Perfection Lawns Inc. did a super job and I was quite satisfied with the results and plan on using them next year.
Description of Work: Trimmed over 30 shrubs around my house and in the yard. Some had not been trimmed in over a year. Galen Thomas, the company president, was very visible during the whole process ... offering suggestions and checking my satisfaction with their efforts. I was very pleased with their work and plan to call them back in the spring.

It went great, he was very professional and nice. He was attentive to all my grandmother's needs and concerns. He also finished before was expected. I wish we could add pictures because he did an AMAZING job
Description of Work: I came on AngiesLIst to find a landscaper for my grandmother who has a very intricate and beautiful yard. Her current landscaper had been dragging his feet and not doing that great of a job. So I chose Perfection Lawn because of their great reviews. My grandmother had her lawn mowed, a lot of mulch brought and put down, bushes trimmed, lawn edged, a tree transplated and a few more things

As promised, Mr. Thomas was at my home first thing Saturday morning and hauled away the old swing set in my back yard!

Mr. Thomas did a phenomenal job with laying new brick for my flower beds. He is very professional. He did everything I asked of him. He mentioned several times, he is here to make the customer happy.

They did the job but their rates were high, in my opinion. They did the job based on my conversation with them initially. He was not as thorough and not as knowledgeable as I would have wanted them to be. But he was timely and the individual that worked with him is very professional.

We had a large brush pile that we wanted removed. Our Rose of Sharon bushes needed trimmed. We had honeysuckle growing within the Rose of Sharon and Lilac Trees that we wanted removed. We also had two trees growing within two other shrubs that we wanted removed. We also needed a lawn mowing service temporarily. Galen met with my wife and me and toured our property to see exactly what we wanted done. He gave us a fair and accurate estimate for the work. He explained exactly what he would do and made sure that is what we wanted. The results were in line with the name of his company, Perfection Lawns. The trees, brush and honeysuckle were cut and removed. Cleanup was superb. The lawn service is excellent. My lawn has never looked better. Galen's estimate was exactly what he charged. The estimate includes the work mentioned above and 4 mowings. I would highly recommend Perfection Lawns, Inc. t one who needed this type of service.
Description of Work: Removed a brush pile, trimmed Rose of Sharon bushes, cut down two small trees and mowed the lawn 4 times.

Came and gave an estimate. Scheduled a work day with weather permitting. Came a couple of different days ahead to spray weeds so the chemical could start to kill the weeds. Had four assistants to help, they organized the work load, finished the same day. Yards looks wonderful, the rich black mulch and clean flower beds all look trim and clean. Mentioned they will come back if needed to re-spray any emerging weeds. I highly recommend and will use Perfection Lawns again. Thank you!
Description of Work: Landscaped front and back yards. Weeded, sprayed weeds, cleared the dried leaves, tilled areas with overgrown weeds, mulched flower beds, and bushes, edged around the flower beds. Removed some dead bush stumps too.

Perfection Lawns did an AMAZING job!!! Our yard has never looked better. The professionalism of the owner, Galen, and his crew was outstanding. They worked hard, made sure that I was completely satisfied with how it all turned out and even called to remind me to water the new shrubs they had planted. I have dealt with several lawn companies over the years, but Perfection Lawns is by far one of the best companies I have ever dealt with. I would highly recommend anyone looking for landscaping and lawn needs to give them a try. You will not be disappointed.
Description of Work: Perfection Lawns cleaned up our landscaping, mulched, edged, weeded, sliced and reseed our yard and added shrubs to the landscaping around our home.

Perfection Lawns, Inc. did a fall clean up for us. They cleaned out the gutters, cleaned up the leaves, cut our grass, made the grass and leaves into mulch and did it so professionally but efficiently. We will definitely be using them once spring arrives. Thanks so much!

Galen (the owner) met with me and gave me a written estimate and scheduled a service date for July 12th. He was able to come on July 8th. All service was performed as per the agreement. My shrubs and flower beds look fantastic. It changed the whole appearance of the yard and curb appeal. I am very happy with the service and will definitely use them again.
Description of Work: Cleaned out all flower beds. Trimmed shrubs that were extremely large.The shrubs had gotten so large that I couldn't reach the tops of them to trim. Mulched all flower beds. Trenched flower beds. Sprayed for weeds at edge of driveway, driveway seams, side walk seams and between fences. Cleaned up all debris.

I have used him since April and he comes each week to mow the lawn, do any trimming that is needed as well as edging around the property. He cleans up after he is done and I have been pleased with his work. Also, once a month he works on my flower beds as well. Cleaning them up, weeding, and just general upkeep which is an extra fee but he does great work. He is very honest and professional and I will definitely continue to use his services.

No story, everything went real good. Galen and his crew did a great job
Description of Work: Cleaned out flower beds, mulched, provided advice and planted attractive shrub/ornamental tree/bushes (all from Brown's Nursery) in a raised flower bed in the front. I had built this raised bed in 2011 but did not get the correct look; what Galen recommended turned out quite nice.
