Purchased a summer weed control service through Angie's List. They showed up the 4 times as contracted. They completely eliminated the dandelions that were in the yard, which I loved. However, we ended up with a bunch of different kinds of weeds that we didn't have previously. I would have signed up for some additional coverage or talked to the team about what we were seeing, but no one from the company ever called to follow up or see if we were happy with the service. They probably could have up-sold me if there were things they could have done to make the yard look better.

Response from Beat The Weeds Organic Based Lawn Care
[Member Name Removed], Thank you for your feedback. I would just like to clarify that the weeds typically take about 2 to 3 weeks to die. Also, One application, which is what you have received, is not a magic bullet that will kill all weeds - though our treatments do provided quite full spectrum weed control. The third thing I would like to point out is that summer is not the time we can be fully aggressive against the weeds - we can only apply be somewhat against the weeds in the heat of the summer. Thank you for your business though. Perhaps you would like to sign up for a regular treatment plan of fertilizer and weed control? Thanks, Rob

Went very well. This is a very excellent company. They recommended the best time in the fall to do this. They came when scheduled and did a good job, although we must wait until the spring to see the full results. I highly recommend them and will hire them again.

They were definitely responsive answering on my first call to them. The young man was very polite and professional. He did not have the authority to schedule the service. However, he took all of my information to pass along to the owner and call me back within the next couple days. He actually did call back. I was somewhat concerned due to how inexpensive the Angie?s List deal was, but they went out of their way to accommodate me. They treated me like a priority and gave me prompt scheduling. I am really grateful for their excellent and exceptional service that had with Beat The Weeds Lawn Care. I would definitely use them again and recommend.

I don't even know when they show up. They just show up and do it. I get a bill in the mail. Their price changes because I am getting so many other things. It is not cheap but my lawn has never looked better since I started using them. I am getting the mosquito spraying in the front and the back so that adds to it. My last bill was about $275. They also will put lime down if it needs it. They are a small operation, but they are really good. I have been using them for three years.
Description of Work: I used Beat The Weeds for my lawn care. They came all summer to weed, aerate and fertilize it. They do everything. They even spray for mosquitos in the front and back so we don't have any mosquito problems here.

Bought this as an AngiesList deal and held off on the review until spring to see what would happen. We have had some up and down weather so far, but I'm really not sure what I paid for based on how my lawn looks now. If aeration and overseeding are supposed to help strengthen my soil and allow new seed to grow, this company did not help one bit. I have twice as many weeds in my yard already this spring than I have had the past two summers. I pay for annual fertilization service by another company that does a great job, and they have their work cut out for them already based on what I see. I don't know how I could give this company anything but a bad rating because while they may not be entirely to blame for all the weeds, their service did nothing to help prevent them or slow them down.

Response from Beat The Weeds Organic Based Lawn Care
The aeration and seed should have helped thicken the lawn. The other company may have ineffectively applied a weed killer but could have negatively impacted the results of your seeding by either inhibiting germination of the seed or killing the new grass before it was mature enough to absorb a herbicide application. If we were providing the fertilizing and weed control I am positive you would have a thicker lawn with less weeds. I would be very open to taking care of the lawn for you and making positive improvements to the grass while killing out the weeds. Thanks, Rob

Came when scheduled, was very pleasant. We didn't see a lot of results because we didn't keep up with treating it on our own as we'd intended. We will probably get more serious about improving the lawn this year and hire them for a regular series of treatments.
