We just hired these people because several in our neighborhood use them.
We just fired Massey for the same reason. Good luck

Have them for years. Very reliable and very nice people. Shrubs are extra but they look spectacular when they’re finished.

The more accounts in one place the more incentive it is for them to keep them. Find someone cutting your neighbors grass and see if they can cut yours also. I'm on our 3rd in 2 years, not easy to keep them.

Following. Looking for our 4th service in 4 years. They start out good and quickly fall behind. It seems that part of the problem is the companies we hired (all recommended by friends) used “independent contractors” and the company doesn’t even know when these guys last mowed! Now the excuse is “staff shortages.” But no shortage in staff who does their billing!

I'm incredibly happy with Dean's. They were at or a little below other estimates that I got and they have been responsive and dependable. They have a customer portal that I have used 3 times. Each time they responded by first thing the following morning. They mow and edge weekly and do fertilizer and insect treatment every other month. I saw that our back yard had numerous brown patches and used the portal Monday evening. I got a response Tuesday morning, and a technician was at my house Wednesday morning, diagnosed the problem as a kind of earth worm, and did a treatment on the spot. 👍👍

Exclamation Massey

We also fired Massey because our lawn looks like a cow pasture. When we complained we received all sorts of excuses however 2 things remained true: (1) it continued to look like a cow pasture and (2) I was still paying Massey for a good lawn. Have replaced them with Dean's and look forward to seeing the lawn restored to what it once was.

There are tons of small independent mowers. Ask your neighbors who they use and are they happy with the service and price? Mowers love to sign up new customers within a few doors of an existing customer because it saves them time and money. We have three houses in a row with the same mower and it keeps the price low.

Made a mistake in signing up with Massey two months ago for weeding and trimming. I paid $200 up front and another $125 for the first month. Not one shrub has been trimmed nor one weed treated. Hey Harvey, you promise "Expect more and get it," which I read as "Expect more and get shafted." I'll probably cancel all our other Massey services now and buy a small heard of goats...
