Default Massey does mow lawns

I received a lawn and landscape care proposal from Massey in August 2018. The proposal included weekly lawn mowing with a walk behind mower.
The proposal matched everything included in my then current Total Care package with Fertigator. The monthly price was about the same.
I was tempted, but decided to stay with Fertigator for another year.

Thanks for the correction. I did not know.

This is spot on.

In my opinion, for ANY service company, "they're only as good as the guy in their their truck."

We are away for the Summer months. We had trouble getting Fertigator to perform all the services we contracted for when we were not here. We switched to Falcon Lawn and Pest and haven't had any problems.

Default My two cents worth

Thanks, Doug
Your question is incomplete. so cannot be answered.

What do you expect a lawn care service to do? You can find companies who will do mowing, weeding. fertilizing, bug spray, bush trimming, tree pruning. Also, size and location of your property is important. Location is important because obviously it they can stay in one area there is less time commuting between jobs.

MY VIEW-I would ask neighbors.

We have hired people who mow and edge only. I do weeding, bush trimming. fertilizing and spraying only when needed. Our lawn is 5.500 sq feet. so work and tools necessary to do what I do is minimal.

EXPERIENCES WITH MOWING PEOPLE-we hired one guy recommended by a friend after two years he decided he was going to cut back his business. I was very pleased that he found us a replacement-a younger guy looking to add customers. Again we were pleased. Part way through his third year he disappeared. We paid him at the start of
each month so he in plainspeak STOLE three weeks from us.

As with every contractor in TV, people have good experiences and bad experiences.

There are some Lawn People who will not get a good review on ToTV.......too many bads.


So if you get positive votes, probably a good one..........not perfect, good.

Good Luck.


Again........
