Been using them for over 10 years and have always had the best looking lawn as do any of my neighbors who also use them. Always taking the time to make watering suggestions and any other recommendations as needed. Anyone I have referred them to have also been very happy with their service.

Brian was amazing and came out the next day when we had thought we had unwelcome visitors. Friendly and courteous, these guys are awesome— definitely need more businesses like this around!!!

WE have had Southern Care for a long time. Just a couple of months ago, I even called their office to say what a great job they have been doing. Then all of sudden I stared getting weeds all over. I called and they came out and said they could be taken care of. They got worse. They came back out Said same old thing! my lawn looks terrible right now. They did not do their job in taking care of my lawn, because it had gotten out of control. They have yet to get in touch with me since the day I fired them! I could go on, but its not worth it , Beware of Southern Care.

Due to installed sod I used southern care lawn for about 12 months. They assessed my property and decided that granular fertilizer was the best method of monthly care as apposed to liquid fertilization. I noticed months later that this method basically consisted of putting approximately 1lbs of granular in a hand spreader and walking around distributing the fertilizer. Reloading once. I should note my sodded area is approximately 7000sq ft. When questioned on the ineffectiveness of the choice of treatment. I was told that the summer in Pinellas co they can’t use nitrogen and basically they just guarantee pests mitigation. I gave them an opportunity to correct the problem. But he chose to just leave with no solution or alternate treatment program. $94 per monthly treatment was a total waste.

I’ve used this company for almost five years to maintain my lawn. Since the day our home was built, we trusted Southern lawn care and pest to do our maintenance. I now have a lawn that is overrun with weeds. 3/4 of my lawn must now be replaced after five years of having them care for my lawn. I’m upset because no one contacted me. I made a phone call left a message, letting them know that they were relieved of their duties and no one called me to this day. After our long history they do not care, didn’t call to offer any solutions just canceled my service and never came back. they obviously have plenty of costumer’s and didn’t care if they lost one. If you use their services please make sure they are applying correct products to keep up lawn maintenance. The sides , front of house and curb lawn must be replaced!!

In about 8 months my yard has gone from pretty awful to amazing. The technicians I've had are extremely knowledgeable and take their time. I've never been more happy with a comparable service. Highly recommend.

Southern Care takes care of both our lawn and home. Weve been with them for a year and have had excellent results. Great customer service, friendly, and responsive.

Very unprofessional, the employees weren t supposed to spray my yard. Then ended up spraying their chemicals all over my equipment and employee. Meanwhile they wear gloves and boots to protect them from chemicals ironically. Would not recommend.

Blissfully Unaware/Self Important drivers that slowly pull up and park directly in-front of driveways while somebody is attempting to pullout. Common sense and courtesy are not included with their services.

January 23, 2023

We were this company for 10 years and awhile ago i notice they do not keep the same driver on route they rotate them. my experience with this they are lost all day figuring out what gate to go threw and such. corners will get cut with any worker trying to complete there day. This is the case with my yard used to be the best on my street many niebhor started using them. I had on camera 5 months ago this happening and called and fired them. no one came out to look then. Now they keep sending that bill for that day and charging me late fees and someone called to see the footage now. 5 months later.my sim card deletes of footage after awhile i just found out its gone I have over a thousand dollars in damage to my yard and there harassing me over 77 dollars. They were good when they were a smaller company to big for a good job anymore. i never paid them late once in 10 years i refuse to pay for work not done but this place has no account ability find a better service. I did.

January 23, 2023

I paid in advance for services. After what i paid for was completed they kept doing services and then billed me. I advised after the first time this happened that I didnt want services past what I paid for. I explained this directly to the manager. They did the same thing and then got mad at me for complaining. Poor customer service as they didnt tell me my credit was up and didnt notify me when they were coming. Even poorer book keeping.

We have been so pleased with Southern Care. The staff is very friendly and personable and show pride in their work. Highly recommend. We also use the pest control service which is also amazing, it is very rare we see any household bugs inside or outside the perimeter of our home. The staff is very knowledgeable and very responsive.

They are great. My Palm was dying and when they looked at it they identified an untreatable disease it had, so I didn t waste money trying to treat it. They even sent me some links to UF website describing the disease.

Without a doubt Southern Care saved our lawn. For the last year and half my boyfriend thought he could take care of our lawn himself and boy was he wrong. I feel like if we would have waited any longer, we would have had to replace the lawn. We used to have the best lawn on the street and I know with proper watering and Southern Care we ll have it again. Thanks for doing a great job.

Rude and unprofessional

January 23, 2021

I have been using them to service my yard for years and they did a decent job. I think most companies will do a decent job and it really just depends on the individual that services your lawn. I gave them a 1 out of 5 due to the owners demeanor and customer service skills. I understand that problems will happen but it s the manner in which you conduct yourself. Thank you for your service over the years but I m taking my business elsewhere.

We use Southern Care for both our lawn and pest needs. Before Southern Care our lawn had many dead patches, very quickly Southern Care had our lawn looking as if we laid new sod. As for pest needs, we have utilized them for everything from ants to rodents and couldnt be more impressed with not only their communication but also quality. Would highly recommend to others.

I own a small pest control company and chose to not do lawn servicing because I know in the lawn business it is VERY tough to make people happy and it is difficult to find good lawn techs. I chose Southern Care because they service a few of our neighbors lawns and they look great. We sodded the yard and things were looking rough before we called Southern Care. I NOW have a lawn where people compliment me on how nice it looks. Our tech always leaves thorough notes regarding the conduction of the lawn, what they did and what to expect. I couldn t be happier with Southern Care :)

Great service!! They are coming every month and Im seeing great improvement in my lawn. The guy who comes also leaves tips for me like watering and what I can do to keep my lawn healthy. Great personal service and only $45 a visit.

They started out great. This week two men came to treat the lawn ... one on the fertilizer and another with the pesticide sprayer on his back. When the man with the pesticide sprayer got to the backyard, I saw him and stepped out onto the lanai. He was wearing headphones and didn t see/hear me. Pumping away on the sprayer and waiving the sprayer to the beat, he was having a good time. What he was not doing was spraying ... NOTHING was coming out. It was all for show if the neighbors were watching. Don t trust these scum. If you re not there, they ll just spend some time tramping down your grass, then send you a bill.

They do a good job, and always give us advice on taking care of the yard

January 23, 2019

I started this lawn service 9/1 solely off of the good reviews AT THAT TIME and specifically stated that I wanted my treatments done every 6 weeks to prevent another monthly bill but they still came every 4 weeks like clock work. After the 2nd treatment I still did not see any improvements in lawn specifically the crab grass that had taken over my entire back yard and part of my side yard so I called the company to advise them that the crab grass was not getting any better and they came back out the next day or two to re-treat it and still no improvement and one day I saw a flyer from them and it says they cant treat crab grass...what! Instead of them advising me of this when I called to complain about the crab grass they continued to come every 4 weeks and charging me even when they knew my complaint was crabgrass. I immediately cancelled the service after find this out because the crab grass was one of main reason I wanted to get my yard treated because it had taken over my backyard and my new plugs were being smoothered out. The got bill and called about it and was told that a manager would call me back which never happened so the next month I got yet another bill with an additional $5 finance charge and I called again. This time I did finally get a call back from Tim who was very rude. He refused to believe what I was saying even though his office personnel saw in their notes that I called because the crab grass wasnt getting any better he just accused me of just wanting to get out of paying my bill which I confirmed that what Ive already paid satisfies the every 6 week treatment that I told them I wanted when I started the service which was still money thrown down the drain since they didnt fix my issue and my yard still looked horrible.

I have used this company for more than 10 years. It is reliable and dependable, serving both my home and my business. It is much better than other services that I have used, including some of the larger national franchises.

January 23, 2018

This company will charge you a start up fee and a fee to stop services, but has no contract. The price was reasonable, but my yard ended up with more weeds than before I started. The treatment included pest control, but I had ants less than a week after application. I would not recommend this company for lawn and pest control, I guess you get what you pay for.

Terrible neighbors.....the employees are loud and rude and drink on the premises at night. Loud use of profanities

January 23, 2017

Was happy to get a resod, but they covered sprinkler heads, meters and did some pretty throw together work. When speaking to the owner, Mike, he flat out denied his guys did anything wrong even though he had to send them back out to make those cuts. His guys told him our sprinklers werent coming up even though they come up everyday and have never been down. He said he didnt believe his guy lied... sooo.... there goes that accountability that apparently grown men lack these days. If you want a company who gives a crap about the money you are putting into your home, dont go with these guys. Apparently, his attitude about bad reviews is he didnt care. And hes the OWNER... so I can see why his employees dont care either. #NotAHappyCustomer #TheyGotMyMoneyButNotAgain
