Now having stated above, all of the lawn care companies appear to be having lots of trouble getting and keeping personnel, then you have the problem that there good crews and bad crews. I use Deans for over 5 years, and over the last year I have seen a decrease in the quality of the work, but it has recently seemed to come back up. Several neighbors, using other lawn care services have noted the same problems. I have also heard about TV having problems getting sufficient workers for the common property. I have also seen a significant turn over in pool maintenance personal. Deans has always been very easy to deal with when I have hads problems (very few to date), and I pay them monthly through a credit card debit plan, this gives me some protection as I can always call the CC company and place a hold on the payment if there are real problems.

After having Deans since we moved here (4 years ago) I had to make a change. They lawn has been going downhill over the last 12 months, they kept changing service folks and each one had the "answer" but the lawn never improved. I suspect they are taking on new customers with the expansion and finding trained personnel is difficult. When I cancelled they didn't ask why or thank us for the past business. While I have found a new company that looks promising I will hold off comment for awhile since they have been providing service with us for a limited time. I suspect that unless I give in and start doing it myself finding a long term provider will be difficult. Both Deans and Massey have lost significant customers in our neighborhood.....guess all part of living the dream
