They were quick and thorough. The entire 1/2 acre lot was aerated. the deal was for seed and aeration, but our yard was too big. We negotiated and they just did aeration. I was happy.

Thank you so much for your outstanding review! I'm so glad we were able to help you with your lawn. I am also very happy that you chose the word "efficient" to describe our service. Many companies come out to your home and "drop and dash". This is a term many customers of ours have used to describe their PREVIOUS companies before coming to us. Those bigger, more national companies seem to come and drop whatever product on a lawn that they are dropping on everyone else's and quickly dashing away. We train our employees to be efficient and not to waste time, but to ALWAYS spend as much time as it takes to do the job correctly, EVERY time. Your lawns needs are different than your neighbors, and it's important that your turf management company pays attention to that. Thanks for your business and we hope to continue to earn that "A" rating that you and your neighbors have given us to help us earn Angie's List Super Service award, given to the top 5% of businesses in the area.

He was very prompt in coming to my home the same day I called. Upon surveying the situation, he indicated he would prepare a customized program for my lawn and for my approval. He did so. His demeanor, knowledge of lawn care and the customized report were very professional and all-inclusive. I had a couple of questions that were answered to my satisfaction. I was to submit the report to my Home Owners Association as they requested. It indicated the steps he planned to take, the approximate amount of time it would take for the treatments and the completion of the job. They had no questions after receiving the report and I have not heard from them since -, indicating they were satisfied with the report and the results.. His office staff would always call prior to having the workmen come out. They too were very professional and cordial. He indicated that the results of his lawn care would eliminate the crabgrass and I would have a beautiful green lawn if I followed the instructions for watering the lawn daily - once it was aerated and seeded. I followed his instructions to the letter and lo and behold, I now have a beautiful green lawn as those of my neighbors. I am no longer the crabgrass queen of the area. I would gladly recommend this company to my neighbors and friends because it was a professional job well done. And thank God I did not have the aggravation of going through the yellow pages and "maybe" coming close to finding workmen of their caliber and results as satisfying as theirs.
Description of Work: He came to my home the same day I called. He did an analysis and indicated he would prepare a customized report and submit it by E-mail for my approval to get rid of crabgrass. As recommended he had two separate chemical treatments applied and then the lawn was aerated and seeded.

Thank you so much for your review. Your lawn was a prime example of customer centric lawn management. This particular customer purchased a big deal that didn't suit her lawns needs. So we came to her home, and evaluated her lawns needs. We developed a program that addressed her lawns needs that was within the budget purchased under her deal and went to work! This is why we believe in customer specific turf management instead of cookie cutter turf management. Thanks to you for helping us win Angie's list top award for customer service and for being a valuable customer Aaron Morris Guaranteed Greener Grass Second Nature Landscaping

A crew of two showed up with impressive equipment and got straight to work. They aerated our front lawn, spread good quality seed, and fertilized at the same time. Our lawn is much improved! The only downside is that fertilizing at the same time encouraged some weed growth (our weeds, our bad) before the grass seed took hold. Over a month later, however, we have a beautiful, even, green healthy front yard.

Second Nature Landscaping did a perfect job! I initially contacted them via email and inquired about getting an estimate to remove everything I had around the house so I could start with a clean slate. Aaron came by the same day (or the very next day) and contacted me promptly with what he had in mind for removal of old and installation of new. He emailed me a plethora of images so I could pick out which types of plants, shrubs and flowers I like (and which ones I didn't) so he could come up with a design plan. Everything sounded good as far as options and price, but being a complete novice about landscaping, I asked if he could come by again to walk me through his vision and that it matched what I had in mind. He showed up at the timeframe specified and did a very thorough explanation. I signed a contract right after we spoke. We scheduled a date. He came on the exact date and completed the work. Everything looks amazing! He and his crew did a fantastic job! Will use SNL again! :)

This is an update to my last review. Unfortunately, the herbicide they applied to my back yard last year as I mentioned before killed just about everything because I had mostly clover, not grass. Essentially it was dirt. Nothing they did except make me realize that I needed new grass that could stand up to my German Shepherd. They installed Bermuda sod in the area behind the house ( not the whole yard) at a cost of about 2,000 dollars and I can tell you today it was worth every penny. They continued treating the front lawn and I watered it just like they said; both front and back. I now have a beautiful front lawn ( I did cut it a little short this last time). My wife, who didn't really care about the grass ( so she said lol) is now as proud as I am of the lawn and the work we have done and working with this company. They are now "partnering" with me to work on the back yard and it's off to a great start. The only other comment I have is that I felt kinda silly getting upset about things last time around; I had to be patient with the grass which is not my strong suit. The B rating I had placed before was that sometimes I had the feeling of being lectured to by a youngster (I'm a very young 60) but that was MY fault as my feelings getting hurt because how hard could it be to grow grass, right?. I was recovering from surgery and was generally kinda nasty and upset because I had to depend on others. That's as close to an apology I can get to (smile). Thanks Cindy, Mel and Aaron for being the confident, patient and knowledgeable folks they are. Don't be frightened off by the sod cost; they did a GREAT job bringing in extra dirt and leveling out spots in the yard and grass is growing now in places it never had before. Their maintenance programs are very reasonable and they do listen. These guys and gals are knowledgeable and VERY reasonably priced... so far (lol) ( From June 2014)The verdict is still out on the lawn treatment, but the people have been really nice and the customer service has been fair. They are conscientious about what they are doing and are good about keeping me in the loop. They are also not a high pressure group and do what I ask them to do. All the clover is dead in my backyard, and they assure me that the yard will be green by the fall, and I am going to be patient.

Thank you for your "B" rated review! We love hearing that our customers feel we deserve "Honor Roll" ratings so often. Normally we listen to the reviews of customers who feel we deserved a "B" and use that information to try and find ways we could improve that score to an "A". This review however leaves me a little confused on how to do that. You regarded every category as "A" rated with the exception of professionalism, weighing the grade down to an overall "B" Yet in your own words, you state: "The people have been really nice and the customer service has been fair. They are conscientious about what they are doing and are good about keeping me in the loop. They are also not a high pressure group and do what I ask them to do. All the clover is dead in my backyard" So in light of your high praise on how nice we have been, how fair, how conscientious we are about what we do, how great we are about keeping you in the loop, and how we aren't a high pressure company, I'm not sure what it was that brought our "A" rating to a "B". Hopefully we can find a way to improve that score over time, please let us know how we might go about that at any time. Thanks again

Thanks for your "B" rated review. Our apologies,, I am unsure why the customer believes we did not service the back yard. Our records indicate we did in fact service the back and front yard, a total of almost 20,000 square feet, even though the Big Deal purchased was for only 5,000 square feet. Please don't hesitate to contact us at ANY time if you have questions about your service, we would be happy to review any of your services, either over the phone or in your lawn.

G3 was great. Mr. Morris came out and explained everything and answered all of my questions. The lawn treatment went very well as the weeds died off quickly and our lawn came back alive very fast. Landscaping was done very nicely as well. There was a miscommunication and he didn't think that I wanted the wood decking around the pond gone but once he realized that's what I wanted, he did it on the same day with the workers that were already there and did not complain nor increase the cost of the project. Thanks to G3, we finally have a front facade that looks clean and easy to maintain. I would trust them with any landscaping job and lawn treatments.

He told me he couldn't really evaluate what the problem in my yard was with the big brown patch until the yard started greening up. The reason the yard wasn't greening up there is because of the big brown patch!! He did spray the front and back yard with weed treatment - but now my front yard is the worst looking yard in the neighborhood, and I am no closer to finding out what the cause of the brown patch is. I basically spent 59$ for him to come do weed and feed on my yard.
Description of Work: He came to evaluate my lawn and do a weed treatment, I bought an Angie's list deal. I am potentially going to use a lawn service periodically, and wanted to get an evaluation of a really bad spot in my yard that is either Brown patch or fungus.

We try very hard to educate our customers every time we visit a lawn. This particular customer has a warm season turfgrass lawn called st Augustine. At this point during the season when she called to schedule her big deal service, the entire lawn is brown! It doesn't begin greening up until the weather warms. The only green in the lawn were the weeds growing throughout the lawn. The big deal she purchased was for a weed control and a turf management plan. I told the customer that I could not diagnose the problem at that time for 2 reasons. 1)The entire yard was brown(except the weeds), I cannot diagnose the cause of a brown spot when the entire yard is brown and dormant due to it being a warm season grass in the cooler months. I cannot autopsy a lawn. 2)She told me that the spot turned brown in the summer months, when everything else is green. I explained to the customer that many things can turn a patch brown in the summer, such as: Disease, Insect infestation, chemical damage, dog urine and many more. As the browning occurs there are many ways to determine which of these problems cause the issue (such as determining whether there are lesions present, insect above or below ground, whether it is a rust colored brown or a tan colored brown.) I explained that I would be more than happy to come back when the grass warmed up, completely free of charge, and diagnose the problem at that time, when diagnosis was possible. It wasn't that I was unwilling or unable to help her with the problem, it just wasn't the correct time to do so with a warm season turf grass. The reason her lawn looks worse than anyone else in the neighborhood is that everyone on her street has fescue grass, which is green this time of year. Her St Augustine is still brown, combined with the fact that the weeds that were showing some green in her lawn are now dead and dying. So her lawn is still dormant due to the type of grass she has, and the weeds are ugly as they die. I apologize that she didn't understand our explanation, I wish she would have asked any questions she had so that I could have cleared up any concerns she had. The weed control was effective, which is what she paid for. We are always happy to explain any service or concern at any time. When a customer has a warm season turfgrass, it doesn't look good until the summer. This particulars customer will look much better in a month or two.

I am so happy with their service. I have used other providers in the past that are nationwide companies. I can honestly say my lawn looks incredible.
