Preen is definitely a great product. Use it around your plants. For spraying around the edges and driveways, I use a solution of 1 gallon vinegar, 1 cup of salt and 1 tablespoon of dishwashing detergent. Does a pretty good job.
The one problem with most weed services is that we legally cannot supply any sort of product unless licensed to do so (3-day course and $800/year for the license for the service and a possible $500 fine for the homeowner). The way to get around it is for the homeowner to supply the product (the service cannot purchase the product and bill you for it -- you MUST purchase and supply it) and pay to have it applied. This works well for my clients and business.
