Default Lawn Maintenance Companies

I was just reading the previous "Zoysia" thread and didn't want to get off topic.

Let's get to the nub of the problem.

Which lawn service company has the most satisfied customers?

I have been frustrated with my fertilizer company telling me to water more and twice a week. I explained the watering restrictions and he as much as said "too bad".

The neighbors are watering less and getting better results. Some have companies, some do it themselves. I am getting 1" per week (actual measurement, plus any rain we have) as recommended by U of FL and whenever I check just before the watering cycle starts again the lawn roots seem to be plenty moist.

I'm convinced the fertilizer company is just giving me jive to make up for their shortcomings.

The bottom line is that some company's are better than others. Let's see what everyone has to say.

To qualify for a favorable vote the company must be giving you a green and weedless lawn. No half way measures!!
