Can anyone recommend a good, reliable mowing company?

We are on our third mowing service in less than 3 years so can't offer much help. Three weeks isn't bad, the second service we had didn't mow it for 5 weeks blaming rainy weather. Have a young guy now that push mows and so far has been quite reliable, time will tell as they all start out good.

Deans comes 2x a week, faithfully. the prices are competitive, give them a call to see if it's right for you

Gotta wonder if maybe Massey should not be putting more of their advertising dollars (full page ad in todays paper, just received a mailer today from them addressed to "Current Owner") into an operations manager that ensures they are meeting the needs of current residents and keeping them vs trying to find new business....

That's interesting. I had Dean's for 7 years prior to dumping them and they came EVERY OTHER WEEK. I have Massey now and they come every Thursday, haven't missed once in a year

Same story here, I had Massy first. I have been through 3 in 2 years. I am back to doing it myself.

Deans really comes 2 times a week to mow? Growing season we get once a week mow, rest of the time they come out do trimming and mow when needed. We do have some in our neighborhood that is using Massey and lawn looks like it hasn’t been mowed for a month.

Have you called them? Are they still charging your credit card? If so, have you disputed the charges? If you have done none of these, get going! If so, call Dean's. They come every week for me and the few times I have had an issue, I've called them and they have been very responsive.

This happened to me last summer - someone had quit and Massey seemed unaware for weeks. Weird isn't it?

This is a common complaint you will hear more often. Most lawn companies have a shortage of reliable labor, never mind good, and are overstretched in maintenance commitments. Over the years, I have found no perfect answer to this problem.

while your out riding around stop and get a business card from HOSE A

Agree all companies seem better at getting customers than keeping them - all seem good at first - PAX is a perfect example - promise you a perfect yard - then after two visits - they may or may not show up - worst lawn service ever

"Landsculpture" is very reliable with lawn care

Hello fellow Illinois resident. I lived there for 64 years. Owned a furniture store in Joliet for 30 years. Been here 10.
I use Oxford Lawn and they have been there every single week, never missing. They let you know if it isn't cut if temperatures are so high that grass can burn.
Their phone is 352-446-3497.
Good luck.
