This company was on time and they came about every three months to spray my lawn. They always called to make sure we were home. They fertilized and it seemed to be good quality. The men always explained everything on what they were doing and they did a good service.

I wanted the weeds killed and I ended up getting my whole lawn killed. The chemical mix that they used must have been too strong and it had turned the grass an ugly shade of yellow. They offered to treat our lawn, but I declined and figured what they had already done was enough damage. I wouldn't use or suggest others use them either.

The initial treatment and fertilization they did on the yard was only $300, which wasn't bad. They have been back every few months to maintain the yard. They did a wonderful job on our lawn, and only charge $45 per visit when they came out.

They did a fair job on my lawn. They always kept to their scheduled time to come and spray. They came out quarterly to spray my lawn. The price I gave was what we paid per year. I quit using them because the service wasn t really up to my satisfaction. I felt I could do just as good or better myself.

It hasn't been a terribly long relationship at this point but I can honestly say, after only a month, I can tell and see a difference with the color. They didn't over sell us on anything and that was also good. I have a good feeling about what they are doing for me and I'm anxious to see how the lawn improves over the long haul.

One thing about them was that I wished they would let me know when they were coming. I do feel that they provided us with pretty good service. I was not dissatisfied with their service and my lawn looked great.

I gave this outfit a couple different times to show results I was looking for and it didn't happen. I did my backyard with Scotts Turf builder and it looked 100 percent better than the front that they took care of. They told me if I wanted them to come back out just to call and when I did they said it was so close to my next scheduled time it wouldn't make a difference, so there is no sense in using someone for something I can do better myself.

They always showed up when they said they would and they did the work and seemed to be trying their best. Unfortunately they couldn t do anything to improve my yard. I don t think it was anything they did wrong; I just had bad soil here. This did take place during a drought over the summer.

I was not happy with them at all. They were only suppose to spray the front yard and not the back yard because we had dogs. They ended up spraying the back yard anyways even though the guy we had the contract with mentioned we shouldn t do the back due to our pets. They were nasty with us and expected us to pay for the back yard. We finally just paid them and so we cancelled our service.

I was a little unsure about using this company at first, but my lawn looked wonderful. I would have been upset now if I hadn't called this company for my lawn needs. The guy that came out was very friendly and made sure that he didn't miss a spot while he was fertilizing my yard.

Tru Green Chem Lawn came out quarterly to spray our whole yard for bugs and weeds. They came out on a regular basis for a few years now. They were always professional and quick at their work. We were happy with the results we got, and will continue to use them. We felt the price was fair for the service done.

We have been with Tru Green for over ten years, and we are very happy with the service we receive. They are never late, and are always polite with us. The fertilization treatments do wonders with our lawn. If we are not happy about something they come right over and correct it. Last year, we were unsatisfied with the seeding they did in one area of the yard, so they came over the very next day, and did it again.
Description of Work: Tru Green Chem Lawn fertilizes our yard six times a year using chemical treatments. We pay an annual fee for their services.

The shrubs always look wonderful when they get done trimming them. The company worked well together. They are very knowledgeable at knowing what needs to be done. If they didn't I wouldn't use them. I would recommend them to anyone.

It wasn t as if they weren't doing their job for me and giving me bad results. The problem I had was that they got some of the chemicals on some of the plants while spraying, and it killed them. When I asked if they would reimburse the cost of those plants, they refused. That was when I decided to just quit using them.

I don t have any complaints with this company. They have come out every time they said they would. A lot of our neighbors in the area already use them but I would still recommend them to anybody else. The workers were real friendly. They kept a professional attitude. They made sure everything was done to my liking.

I have never had a single complaint with Tru Green. They always arrive at my home as scheduled and are always out of here very quickly. They do what needs to be done and move on with it. The people are great and the pricing is good too. I pay them by the visit most of the time. Sometimes I may pay them yearly. I plan to keep them, around for quite a while.

I think they are an average company that does average work. I have been using them for three months so far and I can say that my lawn looks as green as it has ever. I would not say that this is anything personal, but, all they do is spray and that is it. They do not talk nor do they answer any of my questions. I guess I am going to keep them around for a while until I possibly find someone more down to earth. Not that I am looking, but, if something comes along, I probably would switch services. If I got a new company today, I would not hire them again tomorrow.

After a number of treatments and only getting bad results, it was time to let them go. The grass under the tree had died and when I asked about it they simply said it would be a great place for a flower bed now. I had hoped for a greener lawn and that didn t seem to be taking place with them. I wouldn t use them and probably wouldn t be a company I would tell others about.
Description of Work: They sprayed to kill all weeds and fertilized for a thicker and greener lawn. They did 4 treatments a year.

I received a flyer in the mail for a trial offer so they did an inspection and a trial spray for me. I could not see any difference in our grass. They were timely and professional, doing the whole job without bothering me. I did not see the benefits of this service enough to have an on going relationship.

We have a very lovely lawn and we owe a lot of that to them. We understood the maintenance we did ourselves will affect it also, but all in all what we did and have them do has gone hand in hand. It's a really nice shade of green and with 6 treatments a year we have found the right way to keep it up.
