They have attacked all the weeds on our property, including those near the edges of the lawn (the ones that Scotts always missed)

We bought the big deal for a mosquito treatment. Our property is 1/2 acre with bushes and mature foliage and lots of shade which meant in past years we can't enjoy the yard without dousing ourselves in bug spray. What a difference this treatment made!!!! We've had all of our meals outside without bug spray and NO Bites!!!!!! Really no bites! We signed up for the package for the rest of the summer. Sales and service were both professionally handled. They email you to confirm when they will be there. And we still get plenty of lightening bugs to enjoy since this is not on the grass. Can't believe I waited this many years to find this service!

I have used MANY lawn care services in the last 11 years residing in West Chester. I can honestly say that Green Lawn is the most responsive company to date. My service tech, Jeremy Karalis provides dependable service. I also receive a personal phone call the day before my service (not a phone recording). Their products keep my lawn looking great. I've also added their Green Pest division for my home (along with mosquito control).

I have had Green Lawn for a few years now and my neighbors always ask me questions about my lawn, and how I get it to look so good. Green Lawn does a nice job. Their price is very reasonable and essentially is only slightly more than doing it myself which is problematic these days based on a lot of business travel. Highly recommend their lawn services.

It went okay, as far as I can tell. There seem to be less mosquitos on our property than before which is what we paid for. But, I gave a B rating because the company did not communicate with me much other than a piece of paper notifying me that the service was provided. I would have appreciated a phone call/email notifying me of what day they were going to provide the service, so I could plan to expect them on a certain day. I also expected them to talk to me or notify me when they arrived at our home. They never knocked on the door, but instead did the treatment and left a paper notification at the door. We were home when they came by and I was looking forward to speaking to them about possible lawn work but I never had an opportunity to because of their failure to reach out to us while they were at our house. I didn't want to give them less than a B because I did not have an opportunity to see what their service can truly be. I wrote that I would use them again... but I am really unsure that I would. Maybe I just really like more communication than most people ;-) I will probably look for another yard/lawn service provider for help with our lawn.

We have a contract with Green Lawn to do our lawn care. Our service tech is Isaac White and we are extremely happy with his service. He is knowledgeable, professional and helpful. He takes the time to explain any issues with lawn and recommends the solution. We are very happy with the appearance of our lawn since we started with Green Lawn.

It took a while for them to come out. They ended up calling a cell phone number that was associated with our house but they no longer live here. There were a lot of emails back and forth and my wife had to reach out to them to schedule the appointment. They weren’t apologetic and didn’t seem to understand that there was problem. Once the appointment was scheduled, they did come out on time. They technician completed the work and he was great. However, the schedulers are very unprofessional and the treatment was not effective.

I moved into my house last year and found Green Lawn Fertilizing through Angie's List. I have been extremely pleased with their service and professionalism. My lawn looks healthier and greener then it did when I moved in. Thanks for doing a great job. Our technician, Gilbert Pagan, was professional and paid close attention to detail. He moved the swings from our swing set so that none of the applied fertilizer would get on them. Thanks for that.

My wife and i recently purchased a home and found out very shortly that we had tick issue in our yard. We started out with ORKIN which was a huge mistake. We were quoted a price and service which was not delivered. My wife and i were very upset and looked for a way to fix this issue as we have a 3 month old daughter and our (who had a good amount of Advantage on) were bringing ticks in the house. I found Green Lawn and spoke to Mike who was not only friendly but knew exactly how to fix the issue. After one treatment out yard is safe for our dogs and we can now feel safe to bring out daughter out in the lawn. I would recommend Green Lawn to anyone looking for a professional company that not only knows how to fix the issue but has outstanding customer service.

I've been very happy with their service. I definately notice that our lawn is growing well and greening. They perform ph testing on the soil which lets me know when I add lime. They also are very responsive when we have called and mentioned that we have noticed some weeds. They quickly return and treat the problem areas. Having their service has certainly saved me a lot of time and their pricing is very good if you pre-pay.

Showed up on time and sprayed for mosquitos, one week later had outside party and me and my guest were killed by mosquitos. Service seems ineffective, will not use again UPDATE!!! Received a call from one of their managers regarding this issue, the manager refunded my money for the deal and in fact the full price of the service even though we only paid the discount price. He was apologetic about the situation and offered to come out himself and re-spray the yard. We opted to not have this done as we never use the yard except for special events and we had none coming up. After speaking with the management I would give the company another try. It was clear that they value there customers feedback and at least the person I spoke to seemed very dedicated to making sure the job gets done right.

Did a great job on the service. Was very careful around my pool. Did not get any in the pool. I had a weed problem, and the technician Eddie H. knew what the weed (an ivy) was, and what was needed to get rid of the weed. He did not have it on his truck, but he would inform the office and they would get back to me to me to lay the product. The next day I received a call, and the application is scheduled for Monday. Nice turn around time. My lawn has gotten better since I started using their service.
