Crew did not perform tasks clearly listed on bid and were not responsive to feedback. Owner/manager made some monetary amends but we were supremely disappointed with how bad the crew was. Much better luck with untrained college students working hourly. Would never hire again, ever. Cost listed is quoted price, brought to 1200 after reduction.

Done quickly and properly. But workers damaged a small section of hardieplank and I didn't notice it until they were gone (they may have tried to hide the damage). I reported it to company as soon as I noticed it, and they repaired the damage right away, at their expense, of course. Damage can happen, when it comes to construction projects, so it was no big deal, but fixing it right away was great service!

No respect. Use our neighborhood as a garbage dump.
Description of Work: This company works in our neighborhood and throws their lunch garbage in the street. Asked them to pick it up and said they would. But don't. Recommend you not use this company as they have no respect for the neighborhoods they work in.

I met with the owner prior to hiring, very professional and up front about pricing. My monthly bill reflects what we discussed, no surprises. The guys that mow do a good job, no problems with their work. As far as price goes, Whatcom Lawns did not provide the lowest estimate and they were not the highest. I'm happy with their service and plant to continue with this company.
Description of Work: I have hired Whatcom Lawns to maintain my yard, they come out every two weeks. They mow and trim the taller vegetation Ali g the fence and hillside.

Steve called me - he thought our appointment was for the following day. We met, he looked at the job and he gave me an estimate. No work was done, this was only an estimate.
Description of Work: Called for appointment to get an estimate for lawn maintenance. The first appointment was cancelled an hour before the appointment. A second appointment was made during that phone call. He was a NO SHOW for the rescheduled appointment with no phone call to cancel it. They must be too busy to take on new business. They may be good at lawn work but they need to work on their customer service.

Called for quote for lawn service, took 24 hours for them to return my call. Was told they would do an estimate on Tuesday (when I talked to the guy it was wed 4/20). Got an e-mail today saying they were not going to provide service for two reasons, first was they didn't have time to add me into their rotation.... and second was I didn't have ample parking for them, I have parking for a minimum of 4 cars

It's something that I can't tell until the grass starts growing. There is no moss. They did a good job and the lawn looks terrific. When I first engaged them last year, we had a lot of moss, and it was black. Everything they did was very satisfactory. I intend to use them. Right now was the time for moss treatment, but I need to wait for fertilizer. They brought my lawn back to where it is looking good. I think their prices are very reasonable. I've been very satisfied with their work.
Description of Work: Whatcom Lawns Incorporated did a moss application. They did fertilization, and pruning.

When I first contacted Whatcom Lawn, Steve the owner was very responsive, listened well to what I needed, and arranged his crew's visits to my rental house immediately on a regular basis. He discussed the best times to perform the work with the property manager and submits invoices through them. The tenants at the house have had good experiences with the crew. Overall, the quality of the work has been very good. The prices are competitive with similar businesses ($48 for trim/edge). I would recommend Whatcom Lawn to others because of the good management and the overall quality of work.
Description of Work: Provides ongoing, bi-weekly edging/weeding service and once a year winterizing and start up of irrigation system.

I did have a problem with the dirt that was blown in, so Steve took care of me. He promptly came out and accessed the situation. The dirt was removed and Growsources 3 way topsoil was shoveled in and it is great stuff. Pay the extra, get Growsources 3 way. My neighbor watched Whatcom Lawns slice the seed and fertilizer in and she told me he did a great job. She has worked in lawn maintenance for 24 years and was very impressed. She is right because I have the most beautiful green lawn and I keep getting compliments from my neighbors. There are a few spots that need more seed so Steve came out and brought me more. Hire them, you will be happy. I am.

It went well. We had a few trees that were under attack from insects, including two fruit trees - they came about 1.5 weeks after contact to consult and provide the estimate. Another week or so later, a guy came by to spray the trees. I was surprised that he was from another company - apparently they sub this kind of work out to another company. But he was friendly and seemed to do a good job. All good.

The owner showed up and did the bid which included the edging, aerating and several fertilizer applications. He was on time, extremely pleasant and knowledgeable. When the crew came to do the first stage edging they were fast, pleasant and did more than I expected. They blew the leaves off a brick patio that was not part of the agreement and neatly coiled 100' foot of hose that was a mess an I had not gotten around to doing. When they left everything was cleaned up so neatly I had nothing left to do. Ian and his partner not only did a great job but did a great job of PR. They are a true asset to any company.

Nice job. Very thorough. Didn't cut any corners or miss any parts of the lawn. Steve didn't try to oversell me on a service I didn't need or want during our initial look at the lawn.
