Worse service ever. Don’t do it. No show, wrong service performed, they rescheduled 2 times to perform a lawn aeration. Service tech just showed up for a scheduled aeration / overseed service his “tablet” said it was a chemical spray only. I showed him the Email from Trugreen stating it was the aeration service, but he said it didn’t matter, he has to go by the tablet. Look at the reviews. Horrible service. Don’t do it!! Nightmare!! Manager promised to call me back- never heard a word. My lawn looks worse than it did when I hired them. Run!! Chet G
My TruGreen tech did an outstanding job today. Karel made sure everything was taken care of and was very thorough. My lawn is looking better with each passing day. Thanks!
We had our monthly mosquito service performed today, and it was a complete disaster. The technician came out to spray the yard, but when he left, he didn’t close our gate properly. We have extremely expensive dogs, and they managed to escape. We only noticed because of our Ring camera. I immediately contacted customer service, but it turned out to be a call center, likely outside of the country. They couldn’t connect me directly to the local company that services my area. Instead, they had to put in a request for the manager to call me. When I finally got a call back from the manager—Jeff, I believe—his response was shockingly dismissive. He basically said, “People make mistakes,” and that was it. There was no care or concern for the safety of our dogs. We’ve canceled our service and had our money refunded. I wouldn’t recommend this company to anyone.
To say that I am extremely upset would be an understatement right now. I purchased a year's worth of service just last week with TruGreen, as my newly sodded lawn that I had installed two to three months ago has been having Brown patch pop up due to apparently excessive watering that I was told by the installer was needed for the first month in order to help the sod get established. I purchased two different fungicides to try and combat this, one of which got great reviews online and the other that was recommended to me by the installer of the grass. Neither have really helped keep the grass from continuing to get these Brown patch spots and I've been at a loss as to what to do. We also have post-emergent crabgrass that I believe was there prior to the new side being installed as it wasn't killed off by the installer before the installation happened, and that is also something that I'm unsure of how to combat. I contacted TruGreen and was told on the phone that you could assist with both Brown patch treatment and crabgrass control, but that it would take time. The technician that came out today basically flat out told me that's a lie. He does not spray fungicide or do anything that would help with brown patch and there's also nothing that can be done about post-emergent crabgrass and that "eventually in a couple years my grass will be entirely crabgrass" as there's nothing they can do to kill that without killing the entire lawn. Additionally, I didn't really feel like my predicament mattered all that much. The meeting with the technician today started with him telling me that I was not watering my lawn enough, and it took me like three or four tries before I could get a word in edgewise explaining why I cut back on the watering and what I've been trying to do (unsuccessfully balancing watering my yard enough to where it gets the water it needs without also overwatering it which is making the brown patch worse.) He also kept saying that I needed to go to home Depot and purchase a fungicide bottle that attaches to a hose sprayer and use that to control the fungicide. When I explained I used two other fungicides already (granules and then one that goes into a sprayer bottle) he told me neither of those will work and the one I was using in the sprayer bottle actually caused some of the brown patches he is seeing. "You killed your own lawn" is one of the phrases he used. When I explained I was told that was something that his company would help with which is the whole reason why I contacted them for service, he essentially said the people on the phone don't know what they're talking about, he doesn't know why they told me they would spray fungicide or help at all with brown patch, and that there's nothing he could do to help with that. I believe one of the phrases used was "they're sales people so they were trying to make a sale." When I mentioned the crabgrass again it was a "we can help during the Spring with pre-emergent crabgrass but once it's post-emergent there's nothing that will kill it other than Roundup which will also kill your lawn" and that there was nothing they could do. When I expressed my frustration at all of this, the response I got was "how do you think I feel? I've just been blindsided by this." By the end of the meeting with the technician I really wasn't saying much as there wasn't much else that could be said and I definitely didn't feel like he cared about my predicament all that much. There was no offer to test the soil, and the only thing that was offered involved him putting sulfur down to help the soil out (for the front yard) and then putting down fertilizer and whatever else in the small grassy area in the back. Nothing about helping with weed control outside of the grassy areas either (when I mentioned I needed that cleared up he said I should use Roundup on it.) If there are so many things I'm being told I should do myself, what exactly am I paying you for? I hope the supervisor that's supposed to call me back to go over all of this can help me out, but I'm not getting my hopes up.
My grassed struggled until TG took over. They have my entire yard looking like it’s professionally landscaped. My grass has never looked so green and healthy. The service agent is outstanding!
Approximately a year ago, I had the pleasure of meeting a TruGreen representative named Robert Williams. He provided exceptional service and thoroughly assessed the condition of my yard. Despite the presence of Oxalis, dandelions, and various weeds, Mr. Williams assured me that TruGreen could not guarantee the complete removal of these weeds but promised a lush and vibrant lawn. Prior to TruGreen's services, I had personally nurtured my yard from seedlings to its current state. However, I must acknowledge that the partnership with TruGreen has been instrumental in achieving the remarkable transformation of my lawn, making it the envy of my neighborhood. It is important to emphasize that this partnership requires mutual effort. Mr. Williams meticulously explained that, in collaboration with TruGreen's expertise, I could unlock the true potential of my yard. This involves adhering to their instructions, ensuring proper watering schedules, and allowing the grass to grow to a height of 3.5 inches before mowing at a height of 3 inches. (tall fescue recommendation only) As suggested by both Robert Williams and the technician who services my lawn, TruGreen is a thorough service, but it requires collaboration and adherence to their instructions. By following their guidance and maintaining a consistent watering and cutting schedule, you can achieve a lawn similar to mine.
True Green lawn care service is worth every penny, if you love green carpet grass. It took us at least 4 visits to see our yard turn into a thick green grass carpet. We've been with Trugreen for over 2 years. Technicians are always professionals, very helpful and always on time. Today we had Taylor S. come by and do our service, when he was done he offered to bring in empty trash cans. Which Taylor S. did. Thank you for that and hope he is recognized by Truegreen lawn care service.
Tree and shrub service is a joke. Tech stands 20-30 feet away and sprays and preys. They don’t look for infestations or problem plants to treat. I had them out twice and same thing. Now I have terrible aphid and mealybug infestation on my hibiscus.
TruGreen is awesome and they are always friendly and professional!
Taylor does such a through job on my yard so glad to see him again for the 2025 season
Professional and on time
True did a great job! They answered all my concerns and explained everything that I needed to know.
John P. The technician who serviced my home was professional from start to finish. He explained what he was doing and answered all of my questions. Job well done.
Excellent service. Answered all my questions.
Very satisfied with the service rendered today!! Technician did an outstanding job!!!
Thank you SO much for your careful treatment of our gardens! I appreciate the time and care!
Tech listen to my concerns explained what he was going to do to help my concerns
Thank you for the free anti theft process....
Christian is kind and pleasant. I never have to look out to see if he has done a great job. He cares about what he does.
Geno is always great. He does a great job and checks in with me to discuss what he is doing and inquires if I have questions or specific needs.
Very professional, and clean. Let me know when they were coming, when they arrived and when they left
Gino provided excellent services to my home.
Excellent service for the past two years. My entire yard looks amazing! So beautiful!
Expensive but great customer service and the product works
Gino is very knowledgeable, informative, and helpful. My lawn is looking fantastic!
Ricardo was very insightful and answered all questions about our lawn and dangers to our dogs we would appreciate it if he could be the technician to come back to our home
My lawn was a mess and I called True Green and now it s beautiful
John is great. He is a professional.
Great Service and the technician Taylor explained everything well!! Looking forward to seeing my Lawn results
Good job!
I have tried everything to get rid of mosquitoes in my backyard. After the first service with these guys, there are zero mosquitoes. I m shocked and very happy with the service.
Timely notifications, friendly service, very good result Very effective communication method. Friendly, courteous representative.
Gino was very understanding to my concerns and validated my thoughts. He went above and beyond to make sure I was satisfied. Fantastic service! Gino has been so consistant with his work ethics.
The technician who comes out always does a thorough job. I can tell that he pays attention to details and genuinely cares about his work.
Gabriel R was professional and efficient.. He is always welcome at our property.
Professional services rendered. Reasonably priced. Did try to sell me additional items at a high price. Overall, I would recommend this company for service.
I am completely floored. I filled this out. Not expecting anything other than AI bot to read my comments, and do nothing about it. Instead less than 24 hours later, I got to call addressing my concerns. When I first called in complaining about A certain specialist not willing to fumigate the entire yard due to an irrational fear of falling into the pool (another employee fell into a different pool and it made this specialist feel like he was also going to fall into my pool ), I felt like I was heard but I dont feel like anything was going to change. I never got to speak with a manager and the person on the other end did empathize but that was it. Today, Lorraine( I think that was her name ), made me feel like I was the most important person. She empathized with my issue and instead of just listening she actually recommended and made changes to ensure that I wouldnt have that level of poor on-site service again. That previous specialist that had the irrational fear of falling in wont be back. And, another specialist who is far more thorough, will be on site instead. I think the product is great. I was a little disillusioned from the initial service, but now Im definitely going to re-up. This last contact solidified my relationship with TruGreen .
So far im really liking this service. Gino was the #1 reason why I decided to continue with TruGreen, he has been friendly and is very knowledgeable. There was dramatic improvement after the 1st treatment.
My lawn has never looked this good since I started my Tru-Green service. The health of my lawn has improved greatly, my trees and shrubs likewise. I am very happy that Tru-Green has done a great job in protecting my investment in my lawn. I would and have recommended Tru-green to the many inquiries from my neighbors.
What was once a nice green lawn is now dead thanks to Trugreen. I called these guys because I had an issue with killing St Augustine that was invading my Tall Fescue. They told me they can do it. On the report they put down that my grass type is Bermuda and sprayed my grass with some fertilizer and some weed killer. Well fast forward one week now my lawn is dead. Avoid at all costs.
Good preventive service for Lawn, Insect Control...
Employee was both courteous and professional.
First time customer, rep Jason and Gino are profesional and knowledgeable seemed very efficient
Daniel is greet always a wealth of good onfo
Very friendly field employee
Trugreen keeps my lawn thick and green. My neighbor kept asking me why my lawn was greener than his. He said he tried everything, then he saw the TruGreen truck and called me a cheater! This service really works.
Good service and a friendly smile.
Followed instructions nice guy and easy to deal with
Technician was very knowledgeable which was very helpful
Ricardo V. did a good job spraying to prevent weeds & to fertilize our grass. and the phone representative, McKenna, sent put a message on our account that wed loke a one day reminder when they are going to show up at our house. She was extremely personable and assured me that that notification would happen forever more :) .
Taylor always does a good job for us.
Very Satisfied.
Every time Taylor gets here he s on time completes the job professionally and if I have any questions answers them. My lawn looks fantastic and his service is always clean and tidy when he s done a great technician to have on the Trugreen team.
Great service technician in the Riverside area.
Daniel is a great asset to your service, knowledgeable professional and a Dog person
Been a customer for years, lawn looks great!
Taylor was fast, polite and efficient, what more can I ask for? I was very pleased. Janice B
Daniel sprayed fertilizer and weed killer today. We talked about getting the lawns back in shape for the spring.
John Pineda was efficient and timely.
I had the opportunity to speak with Robert today. He answered all of my questions and helped me realize that some of the weeds that I have, are actually a variety of grass, which cannot be treated with a selective herbicide. He listened to my concerns about crabgrass and reassured me that he would be treating with a pre-emergence treatment today. Robert was very knowledgeable, and reassuring. Im not home often, so this was the first time I was able to speak with a Trugreen representative. Thank you!
Taylor did a fine job at my house, he explained what he was going to apply on my grass , very professional. Good Man for the Company.
John P is professional, courteous, and super conscientious of his surroundings while servicing our shrubs.
For our property in Redlands, we have contracted with TruGreen for the past 4-5 years. TruGreen has been a great service to keep the lawn looking good; however, for the last year, the quality of service has been absent. Ive been attempting to work with the company to help get them back on track, but I give up. ** The treatment charge is just under $80 per visit...I would gladly pay more if I knew I was getting trusted and complete service. ** Last Thursday, TruGreen employees spent 75 seconds on the front lawn fertilizing and weed spraying ** Also last Thursday, the TruGreen employees opted to completely skip service on the lawn in the backyard On Friday, when I called and attempted to resolve (yet again) the company said the local branch would get back to me in a week. This lack of quality service (i.e., not fully covering the lawn, not doing the backyard lawn, not showing up on promised dates, having the same issues over and over, and the companys lack of a local office contact....as everything routes through a nationwide call center) unfortunately has been a repeat issue. When I call the company to report the incomplete service, the call center has me detail out the problems -- the same issues as last month. TruGreen eventually sends another employee out to complete the service. I am tired of chasing bad service, so I cancelled on Friday. The company has been advised on numerous occasions that external NEST cameras capture all aspects of the yard (I was amused when the call center said they would add a note to my account that the customer has cameras), but then, why should a customer have to monitor the cameras to determine if the service was provided.
We have the lawn fertilization package, works great. Technicians are great. Office not so good, communication poor. I have told office that technicians have to knock as gate is locked due to having a pool and a large dog. Technicians had not received that information from the office.
Veto is professional, friendly, and got the job done fast!
Overall comprehensive well researched lawn care ,
Easy process - service member was responsible, transparent, and honest regarding the lawn needs and care and help set a plan forward.
Mosquito control Shrubs and trees care. Positive
John was informative on what service were being applied. He gave great suggestions for going forward.
This company makes weed control so easy, the tech is always on time, he ll look at any specific areas you have a concern about, he is knowledgeable about identifying weeds apart from plants My front yard is already under control. I m looking forward to the backyard being under control shortly and this is only their second visit so I call that good progress.
Technician very thorough when doing his job.
TruGreen is a company that provides lawn care services, but unfortunately, their service is subpar. The companys lack of attention to detail and poor follow-up leaves a lot to be desired. From missed appointments to incomplete work, TruGreens service is unreliable. Its a shame that a company that specializes in lawn care cant seem to take care of its own business.
Neat and clean
TruGreen keeps our yard looking sharp; green, weed and insect free. The service Techs are always so friendly and informative.
No thanks very unprofessional!
They did a very thorough job of spraying all my trees and shrubs. They took the time to talk and explain what they are doing. I really like Taylor and John. I gave this a 4 star because I wish I could pick who comes out to service my property.
Courteous, professional, knowledgeable, honest. What more could you ask for.
Great service with a smile did everything I requested thanks!
Recurved text regarding day of service schedule. Did not receive a time of service received a text at 6:30 am day of service still no time given only shortly . Need approximate time of service when scheduled. 6:30 am is too early to receive a text. Technician arrived a little after 8 am Technician did a good job and was polite We have requested not to have service before 8 am
Unethical! Trugreen technician came to service my lawn today. The technician only did my front yard and never went to my backyard. Then sent me a text to say service was complete. I was in the house and he never came to the backyard. What type of service is this? I pay way too much to be cheated on! The back gate locked was left open just like always when they come. This is the first time this has happened. Probably didn t know I was home. Trugreen isn t what it s cracked up to be anyway. If you use and pay for their service make sure you they actually do their job!
Great job being thorough and taking care of my yard!!
Veto did a professional job & did what we asked for. He is a nice man. Thanks
My lawn was in trouble a year ago and now looks really good!
Respectful of property. Mosquito treatment seems to be working well.
On time. Fast and friendly. Highly recommend. Our lawn looks amazing
Daniel was very personable and understood my concern about NOT seeding St. Augustine grass! On time and professional
I am not sure whether Deonte fertilized my lawn. He performed aeration and overseeding only as far as I know
First treatment done today included seeding and aerating the lawns. Specialist Gino very professional, and thorough in explaining service and upkeep of lawns for best results.
Communication Skills are outstanding and always on time! Thank you Gino for your excellent service.
Finally met the guy who has been applying the fertilizer for the past 4 visits. Ive been trying to catch him but its tough when they tell me the day before he comes out. The service office could not tell me, for some reason, when he would be out. I asked weeks in advance and it would have been much more convenient. Otherwise, this decision has been a good one. Grass is looking much healthier, horrible weeds are gone and bare spots are filling in. Thank you TruGreen!
I use TrueGreen for the mosquito repellent! I have seen less mosquitos in my yard and in my house compared to friends and family that don t use this service!
Yesterday Christopher did aeration and overseeding but did not bring enough seed to complete my lawn. There was another bag of seeds in his truck but probably not tall Fescue which is on my lawn and he didnt use it to complete the job. He has scheduled himself to return on Monday to complete the backyard and I reminded him that he did not do one side of the front which he thought he did. I have camera evidence that he didnt. Lets see if he does complete the job.
Technician was friendly, courteous and thorough.
Ed B (branch 5725) arrived to service my lawn which looks great by the way. Just a shout out to Ed B that he does a great job, is careful in spraying/treating the lawn to make sure all sections are dosed. Helpful with recommendations and any advice and explains the products used and their purpose when asked. You can tell Ed B loves his job and is very professional.
Taylor S was excellent! He communicated what he was applying and gave advice as to when to de-tach! Thus far most everyone has been great to work with!
Our lawn and plants look so much better!! Thank you
TruGreeen is excellent for lawn, garden, Tree and all insect care. They are timely with their services and provide it a what I consider reasonable rates.
Ive been looking for a lawn company to help me with my overgrown weeds in my new house, I have called a TON of other companies and non have convinced me until I called here and got Allen Davis as a representative. He was extremely professional and friendly. He reassured me on the processes it would take to get my lawn looking really nice and gave a great price breakdown. I cant wait to have someone come and service my lawn because its a hot mess to be honest. Allen made me feel very comfortable with this company and Ill put my trust in it due to his kindess and easy breakdown of what to expect. I really hope he gets the recognition he deserves. Service Representative: Allen Davis from the Prestwood branch (5169)
I m very pleased with the service that Gino rendered today. He is very knowledgeable and answered/addressed all of my concerns!
Deonte R is the best Technician !! He addressed all of our concerns and promptly sprayed our lawn, which keeps on looking great due to Trugreen and Deonte !!
Trugreen has helped our yard moved from yellow and cracked to green and lush. We love it and the Trugreen team. They are polite and professional. We would recommend them anytimr.
Lawn is healthy and happy
Tech. Gino has been doing the applications at my house for quite a few years. He does a great job and is a pleasure to talk to. He is always careful around my fish pond.
Wow, I was thing about giving TruGreen a try, after reading reviews I think Im going to pass
Quality is good but service varies.. My front yard is done no problem but the side portion of my backyard is always not completed; I have to call them often for re-service. Pretty annoying stuff
I was thinking of using this service. Im glad I read the reviews before calling. Ill look elsewhere.
They provide great service. They let me know when they are coming out and arrive promptly seeded the lawn and the lawn has improved in thickness and greener.
Haven t had a single mosquito bite this year since using this service. Normally get a lot of bites and can happily say I haven t this year.
TruGreen used to be a really good company now the left hand doesnt know what the right hand is doing I hope the manager that I worked with in the past when he gets back from vacation will resolve the problems Ive had but other than that when they type my complaint into their system they put what they want it not what was said they should be ashamed of themselves
The individual that they sent out to sell their product is a liar and was fired from the company after scamming 10 or 11 people. Do not recommend. do not listen to their sales people. They hire scam artists and then it isnt their fault when they person runs off with your money. The service is also trash. I don t notice any difference in my lawn before or after them coming. And the mosquito service is also fraud. You will still have flies, spiders, and mosquitoes. If I could give this company zero out of 10 stars, I would.
After trying two other companies because of a horrible mosquitoe problem they were the only ones able to get it under control
Very professional. Ana represented her company extremely well. The follow through was timely and accurate.
Pleased with staff, courteous and professional.
Friendly service.
Very pleased with how my lawn looks- thick, green and healthy.
Trugreen is a reparable lawncare care company that backs up its services if you are not satisfied, they will come back until they get it right.
There were so many mosquitoes that literally climbing out of my lawn begging for mersey that I didnt even know were there! Thanks for bringing this issue to the surface..!!! Truly!!!
I have been a customer for almost two years now and the lawn goes through highs and lows. This is all due to their lack of consistency, the attention to detail is sub par! Had the last visit on my Ring cam and the employee hardly sprayed my yard, and I was furious when I had seen this. I did reach out to the customer service folks and they advised me they would have it resprayed today....well the employee sat in the truck for 20 minutes. Walked the yard for 3 and took off, no application like promised. I was even harassed by numerous up sale calls for their bug spray application and such and advised them to stop soliciting me. It still continued with 15 calls past telling them to stop. In all I am done. I can spend my hard earned money elsewhere.
Best experience here
If anyone uses the Riverside Branch be ready to be deceived and lied to on a regular basis. From their Sales Team, Customer Service Department and their Supervisory Staff. I ve never dealt with a more unprofessional Company in my entire life. What a disaster True Green has been.
Not impressed.I had aeration and weed control completed end of last year, beginning of this year. I tried to contact them and tell them I was unhappy and they just wanted to lower the price,therefore I canceled service. Unacceptable, I want what I paid for a green lawn.
Robert S is very nice & professional.
Tru Green does a great job at keeping our yard green!!
I have not been happy with the service and will not use them next year.
Never showed up, & charged my card 5 times the agreed price. It took a month to get the money returned. They are the worst, most unreliable Ive ever used - they dont deserve any rating.
I wish I had hired TruGreen 2 years ago to protect my investment in new sod--it is so bad that I thought TruGreen might back out of the job. First visit Ed sprayed for my weeds, which are turning brown after 1 day! Your guy Ed took the time to discuss my lawn, what I was after, and impressed me by being the first person to know what my weeds are--or were. I can tell the company is well-run and really has their stuff together to automate the service call, the analysis, and web support. Dont tell me anything bad about this company--I am soooooo happy I finally took the plunge.
My lawn looks great year round. Your technicians are courteous and let us know if something needs to be tweaked to keep our lawn in good shape.
My yard is absolutely dead after 4 fertilizer treatments. Robert (the technician) does not return call for consultations on how the revive the lawn. Dissapointed in this lawn service.
Very
Terrible! Dont waste your money! My grass was dead, hired them 2 mos ago. My grass still dead!
I paid for service one year in advance, thinking that I was paying in advance, one year was up, I canceled my service. Then I got a bill for $63, I called TruGreen and explained that I canceled my service, and they said I did not cancel in time an had to pay for the last month. They were unwilling to refund the month that I did not want and I explained that I thought I was paying in advance, why did you do the service after my year had ended. Just be careful in start up service. I thought they would have consideration and refund the month that I did not want, but to know avail.
My Trugreen Techs are always pleasant, personable and professional. They are always interested to know what my concerns are; we have had a great rapport throughout my years with Trugreen.
Thank you for your service very satisfied
Tru Green knows what they are doing my lawn looks fantastic. I am amazed how how green and well hydrated it looks. In Fontana we are getting ripped off on water. Tru Green saves me a TON of money. EDIT: For some reason my lawn has taken a turn for the worse and Tru Green has done NOTHING but blame me for not watering.. Except I have increased my watering and still have a serious issue with my lawn. You get your stars back when I get my lawn back..
Unfortunately this company has fallen far short of expectations. Even more concerning is possibly a lack of concern for the environment. We Have had some scheduling and service issues with Tru Green and never received a callback from anyone about concerns. The last issue was a broadcast of fertilizer all over the sidewalk and into the street and public right of way. The fertilizer had to be cleaned up by us or it would ve got into the storm water system Tru Green seems very careless and we are discontinuing our use of this company. SC
Had trugreen for months kept waiting for something good to happen with my lawn it never came my neighbors yard who only uses store bought items spends less than $100 a year has a spectacular looking lawn trugreen would charge me per month I guesstimate spending over 4 to 500 for the year finally I had enough I asked why doesnt my lawn look like my neighbors they kept giving me excuses then they would lower the price just to get more money I finally had enough bought those things my neighbor did now I have a nice thick lawn .
He did not explain to me what he was going to do or when his next visit is going to be it would have been helpful if hes explained to me what he was going to be doing to the yard.
I have been very happy with the service I receive from TruGreen, I got pest service and the lawn care, Bugs gone, Grass is green and lush. I had other services for pest control and this is far superior. I have been very happy. Technician Robert S, does a very thorough job.
I have had the worst experience with trugreen lawn care ever! I contacted them to help me maintain my beautiful plush green lawn. After the third treatment, my beautiful lawn was brown, yellowish and a large part dead. When I first contacted them that 3/4 of my lawn had been reseeded with the Canadian green grass seeds ,a mouth and a half earlier. It was so beautiful, growing about an inch a day. So I complained to supervisor Jennifer at branch 5725 , she sent specialist Frank K out and he first said it was something brought up out of the ground from all the rain we had this year. I reminded him, that the grass grew tremendously with all the rain pryer to treatments, later he said it was damaged by the heat, I again reminded him it was really cool during the month of May, so I told him that the Canadian green grass seed was cold and heat resistance, then he said he did not know what Canadian green grass seeds where. Here lies the problem, trugreen lawn care did not know how to properly treat the newly planted Canadian green grass seeds. I had prepaid in full for their service, I asked for a refund and they only gave the remaining balance back, charging me for the three treatments that highly damaged my beautiful lawn and that is not fair. I should be given a full refund back because of their mistake. On top of that, on the 24 on June, I call to see what time the specialist Frank K would be coming to my home, I was told he had been there and reseeded my lawn, I told them I had been outside waiting for them, later supervisor Jennifer said he forgot the seeds and would be back on the 26 of June. Well he came back not with the Canadian green grass seeds but with fescush grass seeds, I told him we wanted the grass we planted, he gave me that look and said he didnt know what to tell me, that he didnt know what Canadian green grass seeds were and he would talk to supervisor Jennifer..At that point I call in hoping to get a full refund.. Sad, broken hearted and not happy with trugeen lawn care because they made my lawn truely brown, yellowish and a large portion dead! I wish I could show pictures of before and now, but I see we are not allowed to post pictures here...
My first visit WAS NOT $29.95. It was $167!!!! They said I approved of other treatments that they did the first visit but I did not! they told me my first visit was $29.95!! It s not just riverside office that s just the trugreen way.
I have had True Green for most of this year. My lawn looked great at first. Ever since the last technician came and added something to the bare spots, I have crabgrass. I have lived here for over 19 years and have never had this problem. The communication from this company has been less than desirable. They say they will call you to set up a time for service and then dont but a technician will randomly show up. Today one showed up and the first thing I noticed was that his shirt looked like it had been thrown on the floor for several days and then worn today. It was very wrinkled. That shouldnt matter but it looked very unprofessional to me.
Though the guys that come and do the work have all been great and professional etc, the quality of my grass has suffered greatly with this routine. We have had TG come back on 3 occasion to view the damage to my lawn and this last treatment again caused damage. I will not be renewing their service and at this stage do not recommend using TG.
Very professional and helpful. Thank you Eddie
Ive had True Green servicing my lawns for over 2 yrs now. I can say that both the front and back lawns look pretty good. I will say that if you like to know when someone is on your property and when they aren t, this is probably NOT the service for you. Their consideration in letting you know when they are to arrive is and has been a huge problem for me since we have locked gates and I have to either know to unlock them beforehand or be at the property. I understand from their offices that none of the drivers, that actually come to the house, have cell phones that can be reached by the office staff and they rely solely on rather the drivers check their text screens in their trucks etc. This presents many issues. Also if you have trouble spots in your lawn they do not repair or try to repair unless reminded every time. Our lawns have the same problem areas in them as they did 2 yrs ago. They would be getting 5 stars if it wer t for these issues.
Very detail service and custom to my yard.
Their techs are very lazy. I dont think they sprayed my whole yard thank God because this is what happened to the spots they did spray.
Trash dont use this company there is a reason why the government uses them because there chemicals kill everything
GREAT JOB ON YOUR CONDESCENDING NOTE! Its true my lawn needs help and I will be taking my business elsewhere. Thanks
TrueGreen Technician Anthony Flick is very good and professional. Keep up the good work.
This office and the call center are incredibly non responsive. I just fired TruGreen. They have the worst Customer Service department, and I have spent several hours over 2 months trying to reach the local management. Its impossible, their minions do a magnificent job of protecting themselves. On 2/14/18 I tried to get an over seeding added as an option FOR A FEE. No calls. Not marketing, the local branch, no one. In March, after having been ignored by TruGreen for the Marathon over-seeding quote, I purchased $260 of Marathon seed, with plans to do it myself if they wouldnt. Meanwhile, they had visited and deposited a pre emergent that prohibited and current over seeding! On 3/21/18 I somehow managed to get transferred to the office via the call center. The lady that answered admitted she didnt see a need to call me back, and blew it off. When I questioned why she decided I didnt merit a call back, she became quite rude and when I asked that the branch manager call me she demurred. But that call back never happened. I also called the cell of Larry Stewart on 3/21/18, the guy that CLAIMED to be the owner of the branch. Left a VM for him as well. Big surprise, no response. Its also noteworthy that upon our signing up in August, 2017 Larry tried to muscle me into an immediate extension beyond August 2018 for about $300 (to be prepaid, like this service). Today, 4/11/18 I again called the central number, requested a call back from a regional manager for TruGreen. I received a call back from Mike Roth, the new Riverside CA manager, replacing Larry Stewart who was transferred to Pasadena, CA. About 30 seconds into the conversation, I was dropped. Ill assume that was real, since I was on my cell phone. He called back, but apparently went DIRECTLY to VM. Strange. The voicemail was barely intelligible, but he gave me his name, and said I should call him should I need anything. Unfortunately he failed to give me a direct dial phone number. Doing a redial just got me to the Central TruGreen phone exchange, again. Clearly he had no real desire to speak to me, or hes have said hed call again, or would have given me a number. Once again, the painfully unrewarding cycle of them trying to reach the Riverside office resulted in a no one answered response. Apparently I was expected to call them again. I repeatedly asked for a direct dial number, and was told they cant do that, they can only forward calls from there. I asked for a supervisor and had an even more exasperating, circular conversation that eventually resulted in my cancelling the service and getting a less than adequate refund. While typing this, yet another TruGreen person left a VM asking me to indicate which technician was under-performing. They wanted to blame the lawn tech for the Customer Service/Sales/Management issues! Besides being mediocre in their sales follow-up, they seem to not listen or care about the customer. If I could, I would have given ZERO stars. I hope this keeps others from a similarly disappointing experience. BUYER BEWARE!
My lawn was awful. There s a lot of brown spots and the grass was dying. I called TruGreen thinking that they wil be able to solve my problem. When my first appointment came the technician told me I have to reseed it and put toppers and in a month the grass will grow back. I ask him aren t you guys going to do that? That s why I signed for the program. He said no we don t do that. I went inside my house for a minute when I came out he s done. I didn t even know what he did he just gave me the receipt. After a month after I reseed my lawn there s a couple of spots that s brown. My second appointment came I asked the technician why some spots are brown. He told me I killed the grass by over fertilizing it. I thought he s going to do something to fix it. But he did not. He just sprinkled fertilizer and sprayed and he s done. He gave me the receipt and left. I can do what he did my self. That s when I decided to quit from the program. They don t do anything except put fertilizer and spray. Each visit only lasted 10 minutes each and they re gone. What a waste of money. I don t recommend this service at all. Very poor communication from the technician.
I had St Augustines grass for years. I hired true green to get rid of clovers that kept growing in my lawn. After months of using them I had 3 different types of grass. I had asked them in the beginning about the care of my grass and told them I DID NOT want any other grass besides the St Augustines. I made it clear I just wanted care for healthier grass and to rid the clovers. A year later I have 3 different types of grass and a bunch of bald and brown spots from the seeds they thru on that is now dying!! My grass looks awful!! It looked better when I just watered it. I spoke with them to come fix the problem and they said they would have a manager come to go over a plan for my grass. 2 months and the manager never came but they serviced my grass again without knowing what they were suppose to do. I cancelled the service and they said that a manager would contact me again and try to resolve the issue again. Ya I didn t think they would. Again I never heard from them. But why would I? I already cancelled and I m not their problem anymore. If you have St Augustines grass I would recommend doing it yourself. Waste of money to have them spend 5 minutes every other month.
Pre paid for a service and ended up with a burnt yard. Lack of communication from the manager on the situation, called for two days straight before I got a call from the operations manager telling me that my irrigation system was the issue not the service that they were providing re advised that my lawn needed to be watered for 20 minutes for the fertilizer to properly work. I have a crew coming in to completely redo my front yard because of how bad it got. This mistake on their part is going to cost over 700 dollars to fix I would advise that you stay away from them and not let trugreen touch your yard. We will be suing for damages on this matter.
Professional and lawn looks great.
Super service with greener lawns, prospering trees and super technicians
My service tech is AMAZING!! Very friendly and very helpful. I had a concern about it raining after he serviced my lawn, and a representative called me back immediately! Such great customer service all around. We are looking forward to full, green, bug-free grass this spring. Thank you so much!
Great results and wonderful communication before and after. Thanks!
My lawn seems to being better since I switched to TruGreen last year. I really appreciate the call I receive letting me know when my lawn will be treated. Both of my specialist have been very professional and shared information with me on the condition of my lawn and plants.
I have been using TruGreen for 3 years now, and they have been courteous and professional.
We received numerous calls from the riverside office to aquire us for a customer. After our first service we have made numerous attempts to contact them. Today our Gardner told us that there was nothing professional about the job they did our lawn is burnt and we still have all the weeds.
All we want is a call back to resolve the issue. Burnt Lawn and still have weeds. Please call us back.
They sell you this lie that you will have a PGA Golf Tour quality lawn. After a few years, I finally gave up. All they really do is spread the lawn granules that youd buy from Home Depot or Wal Mart, and they spray weed killer. Then, for an additional charge, they rush through and aerate/seed your lawn in the fall. What they dont tell you is that they cant take care of your lawn if you have an imposing grass. You can call and complain repeatedly and get a different answer every other time, but in the end, they wont kill the yucky ugly grass. I finally got the truth from a manager who came out and told me that they wont address the garbage grass-theyll only seed and hope the desirable grass comes in and fills in the other grass holes. I wouldnt recommend this company unless you just want to spend $450/year for weed and feed. I never had my lawn looking any better then I could have with my own annual/seasonal treatment, but Im out over $1,000!
TruGreen provides an excellent service. They are professionals who know their craft. Great customer service, great service overall. If someone is looking for a service to protect their lawn, I recommend TruGreen.
Lawn looks great, even in this terrible draught. Neighbors often comment how good my yard looks. <br /> <br />The technician who treated my lawn today. took the time to identify a specific type of grass that was intruding on my lawn and gave me a quick tutorial on how it can be stopped and removed from my Marathon lawn. I very much appreciate this personal touch.
Very poor communication with customer.
