I hired Lawnsavers based on the reviews on Homestars. The grass is starting to look much better but the weather has contributed to everyone's lawns looking good.
I had the overseeding service done but did not see much grass grow from it, and I watered it 2 times a day for several weeks, and didn't cut the lawn during those 2 weeks.
I don't think all the weeds were tackled especially in the front or perhaps they came back or they're new ones so I asked for a followup service and was refused. Not sure what really qualifies as a followup service. Disappointed as the grass can look much better if we tackle these weeds.
I gave them a 6 for the reasons above and that it's too early to see the full results. I still would recommend them to friends and family.
My package has up to 15 followup services but t
- Approximate cost of services:
- $430.00
- What could this company do to improve their services?
- Any advice to offer fellow homeowners facing a similar project?
- Company Response
Thanks Mr. Rea, for your early feedback.
As we outline in our 'Partnership Agreement', it does take time to turn around a lawn, and that almost always means more than one season!
Two weeks isn't enough time to judge the success of overseeding since several species of seed within our premium blend take at least 14-21 days just to germinate, will take several more weeks to establish, and for that to happen, it does require many sunny days combined with keeping the seed moist (not soaked).
Note: The moist weather this year makes it easier on your water bill , but causes all sorts of fungal and disease problems on lawns!
It's also important to note, that while the seed is germinating, we can't spray for weeds as it would kill the fragile new seedlings as they emerge. Everything takes time, and will grow in due course. We appreciate your patience and are alwways happy to discuss any of your conerns over the phone.
At this early stage you still have approx. 10 of your 15 treatments remaining which are scheduled at the most appropriate times during the season (April through the end of October). Each of these are meant to occur at the most opportune time for them to be effective. They can t be rushed and applied when the pant isnt ready, or too close together that they cause harm to the grass plants.
We know our customers ar anious to see results, however we are in the business of creating lasting change with lawns that are fortified to withstand more of Mother Nature's ups and downs.
Believe me, if there was a way to force Mother Nature to respond faster, we would be all over it! I look forward to seeing your lawn progress this year and for many years to come.
