Question Two Other Recommendations Needed

Hi again...

Just moving in, and going through a number of interviews for Lawn Services.

Anyone have any experience with Tri County Landscape, Stellar, All Seasons, or Kirk's?

We have gone and looked at some of the lawns they service, but you know they are only going to send you to their best looking properties, so we are looking for additional feedback.

The other service we are looking for is Garage Coating. We have only talked to Custom Home Closet on 301 so far. They have what looks like a very nice product but, again, your feedback and recommendations are sought in order to make an informed decision.

Thank you all once again! This forum is very valuable!

Stellar Lawn Service. Marty does it all...mowing, edging, pest control, weeding, trimming, fertilizing for one very good price or you could piece it out. He is a very nice young man and is always responsive to anything we ask him to do. He and all his employees are wonderful to work with. 1-352-553-2597 or 1-352-233-5674.

Ask them for references for lawns they cut in x neighborhood on say Monday. That makes it harder for them to give you their best customers.

Also, talk to your neighbors. It is much better when you all use the same cutter -- there's always someone around to make sure they do a good job, the lawns are all even since they're cut at the same time and cutters do a better job when they can lose three or four customers if they muck up one lawn.

However, Tri-County does a good job. Like any large company, it depends who you get to service your lawn. Some of the crew is really good, some pretty bad. They are responsive to your complaints, which is a biggie.

I have been using Kirks since I moved here in June. He is a very nice young man with great workers who show up like clockwork. I would highly recommend them. He also does fertilizing and power washing but does not pull weeds. Some of my other neighbors who are not here year round use Tri-County because they will take care of the weeds while you are gone. They too are satisfied.
