We could not be happier with Coastal Turf! As long-time customers, they have always been professional, responsive, and caring about the condition and appearance of our yard. Any questions or treatment questions were immediately answered and in several cases, their technicians took the time to explain exactly what they were treating and why. From the office staff, field technicians, and management, thank you for treating me as if I were the only customer and providing a superior value. As evidence of their professionalism, our yard was recently selected as 'Yard of the Month' in a very large neighborhood..

It was an excellent service. He really came out to the house when I was having issues with my lawn. He informed me that I needed to give it time. He educated me and sure enough another 3 weeks down the road my lawn blossomed. I have lived in my home for 10 years and this is the best my lawn has ever looked.

They come 3-4 times a year. Our grass looks good in certain areas. There are certain areas that I think are not their fault. It is just the grass here in South Carolina is all sod. We have a couple of areas that we need to put new sod down, but that's not their fault. It's a normal price. They let us know when they are coming.

Coastal Turf serviced our lawn for several years. Not sure when they first started servicing the lawn, but it was probably 2012 or 2013. In February or March of 2015, I noticed that my turf was turning yellow and dying. I called and sent an email expressing my concern. And each month thereafter, the symptoms became worse and worse and worse. I called and emailed expressing my concern each month. Sometimes twice a month. They came and did whatever they did. But, the lawn kept dying. I begged for help from the owner. I pleaded with him that if he wasn't interested in servicing my lawn to just let me know and I would go elsewhere. But, he insisted that he would take care of it. And, this next miracle application would make everything better. Just send your check.. Well... At this point, approximately 50 - 60 percent of my lawn has died. The thousands of dollars that I spent with this company are poof.... Up in smoke. Gone. I asked them to stop servicing my lawn approximately 4th quarter of 2015when it was apparent that what they were doing wasn't helping. Another thing. The owner specifically told me to change my sprinkler settings. He told me to sprinkle one time per week, very heavy, starting in the middle of the night. I don't know if that hurt my lawn. But, the most common advice for sprinkling is no earlier than 6AM. And, most advice on the internet is that watering at night can lead to fungus and disease. Thus far this year, 2016, I've spent about $1000 on nutrients. I have had a local horticulturalist come in and help me figure out what to do about the soil and lawn. It will probably take 18 - 24 months to re-establish the lawn that I had before Coastal Turf squandered it. It's sad. It's depressing. And, it's a shame that a company would allow this to happen to a client. I'm glad to see that everyone else who writes a review has glowing commentary. But, my experience was much different, and I would encourage you to think very hard before spending your hard earned money with this company.
Description of Work: Coastal Turf provided monthly lawn service, including application of standard lawn chemicals (pre-emergent, fertilizer, etc).

Response from Coastal Turf
I am very disappointed to read a review like this but also puzzled at your complete surprise. Back in March of 2007 you and I met and walked your lawn before you became customer. As we walked I explained areas of your lawn that would eventually decline due to shade and tree root competition. I know this was a long time ago and difficult to remember but I still have the written documentation to support this. You stopped service with us at the end of 2008. In 2013 you called me personally to ask if you could become a customer again because you had tried others and we had gotten the best results. I agree that some decline has been seen in some areas but also much improvement in other areas. One of the times I stopped by your home in July of last year I walked the lawn and emailed you my findings/concerns/recommendations. I noticed a flock of approximately 30 geese residing in your lawn and the known problems associated with their presence and trying to have a nice lawn. Your emailed response was that the geese invade the yard on a daily basis and that it goes hand in hand with living on a duck pond. I had not seen them in the lawn before that day but it is not a coincidence that most of the lawn problems were in the same areas. I also provided watering instructions for you and in my 21 years in this industry I have never told any customer to water at night as it can introduce fungus. I always tell customers that there is no 1 way to give watering instructions. Watering instructions will change due to turf conditions, soil type, time of year, rainfall, sunlight exposure, slope, etc. This means watering instructions can change from day to day and week to week. I also remember on one of my visits that we met and went through your irrigation system because you were able to turn on and make adjustments from your phone. It is sad. It disappoints me that we were not able to meet or exceed your expectations. I try very hard to set realistic expectations for each and every customer I speak with. I also work daily to educate my team about doing things the right way. I spend much of my time with customers explaining the importance of proper cultural practices and how having a nice lawn is truly partnership. My recommendation is that you change grass types to either Empire or Palisades Zoysia as I have suggested in the past. Both of these grass types are more tolerant of the shady conditions you have in parts of your lawn although not a shade loving grass. These grass types naturally get fewer of the insect and disease problems we have in the Lowcountry. The existing centipede grass in the areas of decline can no longer survive in that environment. If you still have the geese problem it will still be difficult to attain the type of success you would like to achieve with your lawn. I truly hope you like the company you have hired. I would like for you to have the type of success you want and deserve for your lawn.

My experience with them went okay. He only made one pass of the aeration. In the past, they've made one pass north and south and then another path east and west on the lawn. He only made one pass, but what he did was okay. I would have like it to be more thorough but I was happy with it. I wasn't home when they did it, but it was done on schedule. I don't have any complaints. He was on time.

Mike Mizell (from Coastal Turf) came out to our home on 5/12/15 to give us a free estimate of what our stressed yard needed after my husband applied Scotts Bonus S product. Please don't use this product ! He also said a lot of yards are needing"fixed" after others used the same product. We agreed to our first treatment and he was back out the next day applying the Sea Hume product. Mike was very nice, professional, and talked to us about our lawn problem again. We were very impressed with him and his passion for correcting lawn problems. We will have future applications to eliminate other weed problems that we are experiencing with our centipede grass. Thanks Coastal Turf for being an A+ business.
Description of Work: Applied SeaHume, because our yard is stressed and has large brown area's all over it. This product will correct the brown patches after using Scotts Bonus S product that we are now working with Scotts to be reimbursed for their product that actually hurt our yard.

Chris was very professional. He took time to explain what he thought I needed to have the best lawn. He even checked my lawn mowers to be sure I was cutting at the correct height for my lawn type. I couldn't afford to do all the things he suggested and didn't pressure me to get all the services done at once. Today was the second visit and I am still very pleased with this business.
Description of Work: I requested an estimate for weed and feed service for my lawn on their web site and received a phone call within the hour to schedule a visit. Chris came out , gave me an estimate and explained what I needed for my lawn.

This is the second time I have worked with Ross Settle and Coastal Turf to install new sod and my lawn looks beautiful. Many compliments from neighbors. Ross is professional, punctual and quickly responds to phone calls. They continue to maintain the sod installed last year as well. I look forward to working with Coastal Turf in the future.
