Lawn Doctor advertises on Angie's List as "yard work", but this is actually handled by a partner company Diamond Cutters. Diamond Cutters, after leaving us hanging for a month, finally comes back and says they are at full capacity, and can't take any more work orders. ???

I was not super happy with them, but then in the end of the contract they did a remarkable job with my lawn. Now it looks quite okay. I'm a bit difficult because I asked them to use only organic materials. Those are not as effective as others. I was complaining there were some reads. The last services were very good. They were quite expensive. They were cooperative.
Description of Work: I had a contract with them.

I do not have any problems with them. They usually let me know ahead of time when they are coming out. They always come as plan, and clean up after themselves. I have been using them for about 1 year now. I pay about $40 a month, and am on a yearly contract.
Description of Work: They did some basic lawn maintenance (Weed control, fertilizing, aeration, etc.).

Description of Work: Lawn doctor is a great company to use for fertilizing, aeration, and power seeding. They send you an email before they come out and they make it very easy to reschedule. I liked them a lot. I only stopped using them because I thought they were a bit expensive and decided to start fertilizing myself.

The services was mostly good, I know that when you call them, you have to leave a message, when you don't get a person right away, you'll leave a message on the phone and then they call you back which is kind of a pain sometimes. We had a package that they go all, from spring, summer and fall, they do all the lawn treatments that go through that with aerating and fertilization. They don't cut or anything, they just do the seeding and stuff like that. Their last service was probably a week or two ago, they came out and did a treatment on it. It's a package deal and I think their price was a little high.

The last service that they did was part of a package. I think the package was about $600 but it included quite a bit of different treatments. The lawn looks great. It is starting to grow actually, so it is good. The biggest issue I have had with them is that when I call their office, I have to leave a message. I don’t get to talk to someone right away. They do call me back that day but it is kind of frustrating not being able to talk to somebody and tell them what is going on and get an answer right away. I would use them again in the future.
Description of Work: Lawn Doctor has done services for me throughout the whole year. They have provided power seeding, topsoil and various other fertilization of the lawn over the year for me.

There has been a marked improvment in my lawn. I had a bunch of milkweed growing in the lawn that has disappeared. The lawn had suffered from years of neglect, so there is some room for additional improvment, but it's looking better.
Description of Work: The service includes treating the lawn with regular visits to seed, weed, feed and airiate for this season. They have airiated, treated the lawn with weed control, and fertilized so far. I've had the service for two months. They gave me an estimate the day after I called, and the first visit with weed control the day after I signed up.

I don't like that sometimes they will come right before it rains. I do like that if I feel that something did not work, they will come back out and repeat the treatment, at no cost to me.

They were very accommodating, working within our schedule. They will follow up, doing aeration and checking on the lawn several times over the year. They are very responsive and come out right away if we have any problems. I know they are not the cheapest, but they do quality work.
Description of Work: Lawn Doctor dug up my yard after a large construction job I had done. They removed a sidewalk. They also reseeded my 1/3 acre lawn.

They have excellent customer service. They treated my lawn with the wrong chemicals one time and killed my grass. When I called to let them know they came the same day and seeded the entire lawn. I have not had any problems other than that 1 time. My lawn is very beautiful.
Description of Work: They fertilize my 1/4 of an acre lot. They come twice a month. The charges are broke down to 12 easy monthly payments per year.

We can't say that we are very happy with them because sometimes the rain and things like that can affect the lawn negatively, so we don't really know how good they have done because of all these different things that happen. Normally, what they do is come in and go whenever they are scheduled to. It's such a quick job that we don't even notice sometimes until they have a left a note under the door saying that they were there. At least we are not dissatisfied with their work and will continue using them in the future.
Description of Work: We used this company to do a full service on our 20 by 20 lawn, including the mowing. They also come in every 3 months approximately and do some fertilizing as well.

They don't answer the phone or answer e-mail. When they would call me back, I specifically asked that I wanted to meet with a representative at my home. On two separate occasions I waited all day and didn't see the representative. Instead, they left an evaluation, but didn't knock on the door when they came.
Description of Work: None, they were extremely poor at communicating and responding to questions.
