I was a pre-pay customer. Over the last year I was passed over numerous times as they were in my neighborhood. Now, they did not finish the season. I have requested my money back several times for what they did not do. All requests have gone unanswered. I hope James can work out whatever issues his company is having and make things right with his customers. Until then, I do not recommend them.
James and his crew came to update my old sprinkler system.. He and his crew were at my house from sun up to sun down working to optimize my system. They did an outstanding job and now every inch of my lawn is getting watered. Extremely responsive, friendly and professional. I couldn't recommend them highly enough!!
We've had Equity Green for years. Fall of 2022 they sprayed our yard and killed half of our yard. James came out and admitted that it was there fault. They came out the next day and reseeded but nothing took. He assured us in the spring he would fix our yard. Come April 2023 I texted him no response. I called him, no respnse. My husband called no response, between the 2 of us we contacted him 10 times no response. Then he did respond and said he would be out, we asked when? again no, reponse. A month has passed and no coming out. In the meantime we filed a complaint with the Attorney General office on May 1st. They sent him a letter and gave him 20 days to responsed to our complaint,he did not respond to Attorney General or to us. How do you expect to keep customers when you run your business like this? I would highly recommend don't do business with this campany. If they do something wrong they will not correct it, they will just ignore you and leave you to take care of it yourself.
I used Equity Green's services for the lawn care at my old townhome and was glad to use their services again when I purchased my new home this spring. Moving in to a large corner lot was a big change so I happily asked for their assistance on weed control and seeding. To help with the very dry year we are having, they were able to recommend a moisture management treatment. That treatment in conjunction with regular watering has made my yard the best on the block! Really appreciate the dedication to craft and using the best quality products and equipment! Not to mention, the team is dedicated to educating you on the best tips for your lawn and landscaping!
NEVER DO BUSINESS WITH THESE PEOPLE! PLEASE... take the negative reviews seriously. We have issues with them that are still unresolved going back to April/May of 2021. They will take forever to respond or simply ignore you if you have a problem. They can't even return a simple text message - completely unprofessional/unresponsive. Gave us a refund for messing up our yard, but now, months later, out of nowhere, are sending us a bill and threatening collections. So over the last 2 weeks I have sent several messages trying to get this resolved once and for all, but now they ignore us completely. >>> Steer clear or you will regret it. <<<
I had been an Equity Green customer for about 2 years. Initially had no issues with their fertilizing and weed spraying service. Approx 5 weeks ago, when they sprayed my lawn for weeds, some of the spray landed on the very bottom of my two spruce trees and killed large areas of needles. On 06/16/21, I texted James photos of the damage and requested he call me to discuss this….crickets. On 06/18/21, I emailed him the photos and again requested telephone contact. He never called. He "physically" replied to my email, but completely ignored my issue. Instead he discussed my lawn and what he could do to improve it. Over the next several emails he dodged the issue by suggesting expensive upgrades and services to my lawn. James eventually acknowledged the fact my trees were damaged, but never accepted responsibility for it. He then offered to service my trees in an attempt to make them healthier, but (even after specific questions) would not say at who’s expense these services would be. I tried to cut and paste the entire email chain between James and I, but Google limits how large their reviews can be. This is unfortunate because the email chain is almost comical due to the complete disregard for my concerns as a paying customer. I will paste as much of it as I can below: On Jun 18, 2021, Chris wrote: Morning James, checking if you received my text this past Wed regarding the bottoms of my two spruce trees recently having dead spots. I included a few pics of some of the dead areas. As my text noted, it certainly appears as though when the last weed spraying took place there was some overspray that landed on my spruces. I have not received anything from you regarding this. Have you taken a look for yourself? My text requested a call from you in order to discuss this. I understand you are busy running around getting things done, so I figured giving you the opportunity to call me when it was convenient for you would be appreciated by you. Call anytime (outside normal business hours is fine). I'm certainly willing to call you directly if needed. Thank you. On 6/18/21, James wrote: Chris, First glance your lawn is cut a bit shorter than we would enjoy seeing. We can spray the crabgrass. It enjoys heat and lack of water is creating breakout. Have you considered installing an irrigation system and drill seeding? Thank you, James Hammer On 6/18/21, Chris wrote: James, I requested your thoughts on my spruce trees having dead spots due to overspray during weed spraying. Are you saying my lawn's length was the cause the overspray? -or- Are you saying my lawn is currently, or at the time of when I took the pics I sent you, cut too short? On 6/20/21, James wrote: Chris, Please email photos of the tree. Or you may contact X with X for a 100% accurate diagnostics, reviews, recommendations, and results. He charged a $125 consulting fee, however its priceless to absorb his knowledge. Yes your lawn is cut too short. If I may suggest installing an Irrigation System if your going to be living there for more than 3 years. An EPA Compliant Rain Bird System would be $3500. Mow when it needs to be cut with the highest setting now until September and then cut it shorter throughout Fall and mow & bag at 2” in November. Long term Drill/Slit/Hydro/seed would be optimally this fall for $1800. On 6/23/21, Chris wrote: James, yesterday I sent the photographs I took of some of the dead areas of my two spruces. Are you going to pay X's $125 consulting fee? I am less than satisfied with your vague replies to my emails that do not address my questions or the actual issues at hand. I am not concerned about my lawn's health at this time. I am concerned with the damage to my two trees. I am not a happy customer. *The email chain went on for another 8 rounds. In the end, James stopped replying to me, never called me, and never accepted responsibly for the damages. I see James tends to reply to Google reviews. I suggest he instead uses that time to call his paying customers and actually correct his company’s mistakes.*
I contacted James several times to rectify how his company killed my lawn and got NO response. I have since filed a complaint with the Better Business Bureau and am still awaiting a response! Steer clear of this company and their services!!
Before and after pictures of my lawn are amazing. Just thought I would share this to show how much we appreciate what Equity Green Lawn Care has done for our lawn. It is a night and day difference! Pictures are from 2016 and present year. Thanks!
Poor communication, high charges and poor response with needs when asked
Used to be great service, until they stopped returning phone calls and doing what they said they were going to do.
We have been a customer for 7 years. Always ready to go every year. If any weeds are missed, they will come back and hit the pop ups with just a quick message.
Quick, reasonable and complete.
We used this company for many years and were extremely happy with them, last year created a different picture. As always, we prepaid for services to receive a discount however 2 services were not completed by the company. This left us on a ledge when the sprinkler system hadnt been blown out and winter was coming. The owner refuses to answer inquiries and we havent been refunded our prepaid money. He did however send us an invoice to prepay for 2024 services in advance - the invoice also did not include a credit for money already paid. Very disappointed.
*UPDATE* Out of business now. I bought my house in 1998 with the sprinkler system I am using today but was never told who installed it. Over the years I have not needed much work except for annual fall blowouts. But in the past couple of years Ive needed work done and had trouble getting in touch with anyone or find someone who can do work relatively quickly until I call Equity Lawn. The called me back right away, came out quickly to fix my problem and charged me what they said. Highly recommend!
Hired James for snow removal this season. Never showed up when we had our heavy snowfall in January. He never responded to repeated texts or email messages. Voice mailbox was full so couldn t reach him by phone.
Was a pre pay customer for many years. Last season lawn fertilizer service just stopped. No contact or never showed when said they would. Lost hundreds of dollars from pre- pay service. Filed complaint with BBB and still no response. Extremely disappointed and obviously would not recommend.
Contacted them via email and they were the first company to respond right away and got started the next day! Lawn is already looking better after their first visit. Appreciate it!!
Dont appreciate your vehicle running a very red light and almost hitting us. Plate 87581 I think and it had a dump box on the bac. just a little bit ago.
I do not recommend this company. My yard looks worse than ever. They do not stand behind there product/work. They applied the wrong grass seed and admitted it and didnt fix. James 100% admitted he put the wrong grass seed down. He stated that he would fix it, but never would come back. DO NOT DO BUSINESS WITH THIS COMPANY!!!!!! It cost me $1700.00 and now I had to redo my whole yard as he planted tall fesque and it took over my whole yard!
These guys were timely and did a great job blowing out my sprinklers! Great value. Would recommend!
Weve used Equity Greens services for almost 10 years. We tried every other company in and around Sioux City before this company was suggested to us. Weve been so happy with their work. Many people have told us our lawn looks like a golf course, etc. Any time weve needed to contact them, theyve returned our texts/calls the same day. Extremely happy with Equity Green!
Good qualilty service and responsive to any questions or concerns.
Great service that provides results I am unable to achieve with fertilizer bought in stores.
They have been a great company to work with. We went with another company for 3 years and the last year our yard looked worse than it did before we started. We used them last year and there was a 100% difference in how the yard looked. Highly recommend them
Did my father-in-law s lawn. Looks very nice! Good work from the team at Equity Green
A great company to work with. They were friendly and did an amazing job on my lawn. A great company, would recommend.
Really appreciate James for being willing to come out late in the day on last minute notice to fix our sprinkler system that failed over the winter. Fast service with a smile.
Great small business. Professional and always made sure we were taken care of. Easy to work with.
Thank you so much for the quick responses, quick work, and overall super smooth process with our projects. Will definitely be recommending you to everyone!
Helping me to have a lawn again instead of just mowing weeds great workers and great prices
Hobby is in its name and you can find so many things for so many hobbies.
I would not recommend these guys. It had taken me 7 phone calls to stop coming out and they still keep coming out. We just got a 95.00 bill for services never requested thats on top of the bill we received a little over a month ago. Never again! !!!!
Save your money. Sleazy car salesmen disguised as lawn care technicians. They re no experts. Go somewhere else. Don t walk, run!!! In response to their response : It was definitely Equity Green. The guy that showed up was driving an unmarked car but definitely left equity green information. I felt educated enough to run the other direction. Sleazy car salesman. Seriously. Run away.
Some of the worst customer service Ive ever dealt with. I inquired about some crabgrass concerns months ago. I provided pictures of the problem areas twice at their request. I was repeatedly told someone would be out to treat. My lawn still has crabgrass and has not been treated. No one has apologized or shown any accountability. I would never recommend this company to anyone. Go somewhere where customer service and responsiveness is a priority.
We are selling our home and needed some quick lawn attention. Called Equity Green and explained the situation. We had our lawn mowed and trimmed the next day. Awesome! Thank you!!
Ive worked with James in having our sprinklers blown out every year. Theyve been super easy to work with and prompt to squeezing us in before the frost!
Great service! Easy, effective and affordable!
Great company to work with. James is very responsive to emails and phone calls if you have any questions.
We have had Equity Green for many years and they are always friendly and do a wonderful job. If we ever have questions or need anything done they have been there for us!
Great price, great service!
Equity Green did an amazing job taking care of our lawn. We had a bad weed problem, and after a couple of treatments it looked great. Sometimes scheduling is a challenge with the weather, but overall I m very satisfied.
Weve been using Equity Green for 6-7 years. The lawn looks great year after year.
Aaron took time out of his busy day to answer questions and check out my yard. James hires the best people who really care about the service they give their customers!!
There the best answer all my questions. Made my lawn look great! Thank you!
Lawn looks great these guys are terrific
After several years of spending too much money with a nationally advertised lawn service we had enough of their poor performance, strong arm tactics, and downright badgering, we said, Enough! We called Equity Green. They looked at the lawn, listened to our complaints and suggested a course of action. They came and did all they promised and in 3 weeks we had grass growing where the other company reps told us wed never get grass because we had poor soil. 1.5 months later we have a lush green lawn throughout. Finally. Their technicians are very knowledgeable and worth every penny spent!
I scheduled a spring cleanup, aeration, overseeding, and spraying in April and was told it would be a few weeks before they could get to my me. After 2 weeks, I called asking when I could except them, and they stated due to rain delays it would be another week. Then every few weeks thereafter I called and left messages asking when the work would be done--and none of them have ever been returned. It is now June 26th, and Im pretty confident that the only reason the owner answered was because I didnt call him on my cell phone. He stated it is now too late in the season to seed and it would need to wait until fall. Incredibly disappointed.
Quick to respond, great service, and a fair price!
They make my yard look great, whatever they put on the grass, eliminates dandelions, thistles. They offer other helpful advice and services too.
Equity Green has done a great job helping to improve our lawn. Their customer service is wonderful and its nice to have a company we can trust!
Always professional and courteus service. Recommend.
They did an excellent job aerating
Would highly recommend!!
Incredibly happy with the care provided for my lawn! Whenever I have contacted them, they are friendly, knowledgeable, and fast in providing assistance. I highly recommend this lawn care company!
great job, great price...our law looks fantastic
Appreciate the quick service on protecting our ash tree, and liked them so much, we signed up for the automatic service for our lawn too. Nice to have them just take care of it. Highly recommended that you sign up.
I tried about everything to take care of the weeds in my lawn. They were really bad. Clover, oxalis, violet, thistle, creeping jenny, crab grass... I figured it would be an ongoing process to get rid of them. Equity came in and took care of almost all of them on the first pass. Treatment throughout the season took care of the rest.
This is the first time I used Equity Green for fertilizer applications and pest control. Overall, happy with the results and Equity Greens response to questions or follow-up on weed control. My lawn is definitely healthier and the pest control has been great.
Excellent service! Highly recommend!
James and his technician (Zach Beckman) have been attentive, customer-oriented, and responsive. Their work has made our lawn improve significantly in the past two years. Strongly recommend Equity Green.
We have used Equity Greens monthly lawn care service for the past two summers. They have eliminated hard to control weeds like crabgrass, dandelions, and sweet clover. Grub control application has greatly reduced damage due to lawn insects, and the lawn stays green throughout the August dry spell. We are completely satisfied with their work and will be using them again next year.
Fair pricing, good work, and nice to work with. M. Hoxmeier
I have used Equity Green for a number of years. They are top notch people and always take care of their customers. I would recommend them to anyone that needs their service. Friendly and wonderful people
I have them come every spring through fall to take care of our lawn, fertilize, moisture control etc, they are great at explaining what applications we need to make our lawn here at work look great. We will continue to use them for they are quick and reliable.
I love not having to think about what my lawn needs. They show up, take care of it, and it looks great! Highly recommend them.
Equity green has been awesome to work with. They call every time before service cause I have dogs that need to be put away. When I have needed new service, they have made it out same day unless we arrange otherwise. You won t be disappointed if you go with equity green.
Equity Green has always provided me with excellent service. They even work around my dogs schedule. :) I highly recommend them to anyone looking for professional lawn care service.
Excellent service, easy to work with. Work done in timely manner.
Excellent Service, friendly employees and a responsive owner.
Great company. They have made my lawn look fantastic!
Had equity green overseed our lawn. We had so many dead empty areas and now our lawn is very thick and green... much more of a joy to mow! Would recommend Equity!
Equity Green is excellent at providing a variety of services catered to what you need. Very happy with the results!
With a busy work schedule and a focus on quality family time, our lawn often took a back seat. We simply could not keep up with the weeds! James and his crew gave us insights on exactly what our yard needed to flourish and they promptly got the process started. I can now play with my family in our lush grass instead of going to war with weeds.
Excellent service, owner James is very responsive on the phone and always friendly and professional. They get my yard ready for winter by trimming back the plants, getting rid of the leaves, and mowing the lawn and it looks fabulous!
Equity Green Lawn Care provided great service.
We have used Equity Green for four years - inheriting their services from the previous homeowners. They do a fabulous job, which leads to our lawn being lush, green and healthy! We would highly recommend them for any lawncare needs.
great service thanks

I have been very pleased with Equity Greens services. The owner is very responsive to questions and the employees are respectful and take pride in the work they do.

Very professional and methodical in how they approach the lawn care. They always provide me educational information about my grass and soil. Very helpful
Our grass has never looked better! Thanks David&Lori C.

Equity Green is like family to us. The caring and helpful staff are absolutely awesome. They always answered any questions we have about the best care for our lawn. Great discounts when you pay yearly. There are not enough words to explain how great this company is. So happy to have them helping us keep a beautiful lawn. Lyle & Ann Boehrns
Equity Green is a great company. They are dependable and always willing to answer any questions you have. I would certainly recommend Equity Green.
We love Equity Green Lawn Care! They treated our grubs and have helped get our lawn back after having it poorly managed by another company.

Great Service - The lawn has never looked better.
Great company - competitive pricing. Always do a great job servicing our lawn!
Equity Green Lawn Care has always done an outstanding job on our lawn and we are very pleased with the results.
Very quick response time and provided exactly what was asked for. Also provided suggestions to improve your lawn for the long term.
Great lawn care. Very easy to work with, they dont call you and try to sell you more services. Switching lawn care services was the best thing I did this summer.
I have used Equity Green Lawn Care for several years now and they never disappoint.. Excellent service and owner is very responsive.. I would recommend 100%
Great customer service! I got my quote within an hour of calling, and service the next day!

Great people with Great Service! Lawn always looks nice! They are friendly and truly want to help their customers!
Hired Equity Green this spring to help thicken up our lawn, help with weeds, and assist with keeping our lawn healthy. They have done a wonderful job for us. Our lawn looks great. The team is great to work with. They even blew out our sprinkler the next day after asking! I would high recommend them!
Just finished our first year. Very satisfied!!!
Always prompt, calls before coming (very important to me!) good results
Equity Green did an awesome job taking care of our lawn. The staff is respectful and diligent! Excellent service and FANTASTIC results!!
Great service! Our lawn improved extremely through their service!
I have been very satisfied with the lawn care and sprinkler service from Equity Green. They respond to emails and phone calls very promptly and we have been pleased with the results thus far.
Weve had excellent service from Green Equity lawn service. Always responsive and friendly staff. The results of their treatments has been great.
Unfortunately, I did not have a 5-star experience this year. I know how effective their lawn treatment is, even with just a few applications, but there was certainly some miscommunications. Equity Green has reached out to me to explain the procedures being implemented to ensure proper communications and scheduling, showing they really care for their customers. I look forward to a 5-star experience, year after year to come.
Equity Lawn is fantastic! We are new home owners that had shoddy sod and they made it beautiful! You never have to worry if they will show up, they are always there to make your lawn perfect! The costumer service is fantastic and they will make sure you get the best deal and lawn possible!
Very quick to provide quotes and services. The owner is incredibly nice and the prices are fair. Highly recommend!
Great Service! Was having issues keeping my yard looking good, and Equity Green changed that! Strongly recommend. Sometimes they have coupons and specials in the Sioux Falls Shopping News coupon book, or on the Coupon Book App.
After just a few applications, my lawn has never looked better. Would for sure recommend.
We have had James do our lawn for several years and have always been happy with the service and results. We would recommend him to anyone.
Professional. Knowledgeable. Affordable. Enough said.
James is very prompt and the results are great. Our lawn was full of weeds and after just 1 treatment the weeds are gone and the grass is thriving. I have already recommended his service to others.
Hired them in the spring and my yard is looking the best it has in years!
Have worked with James and his team for about 5 years now, and have been extremely happy with their service and impressed with their responsiveness.
Equity does a great job with my lawn. The tell you what was done and let you know of any recommendations. The fall cleanup service is worth every penny. Neighbors ask about it every year. No pressure sales and customer service is always prompt and polite. They have a pre-pay discount as well.
I used Equity Green for two years and had the best looking yard in my neighborhood. I took a year off and ouch! Not a good thing. Back with them this year and looking forward to a lush green lawn again! They are easy to work with too!
Top notch quality and service, would highly recommend!
We love Equity Green! They are professional, knowledgeable, and super friendly! They turned our yard of dirt and weeds into thick, lush grass! So happy with the variety of services they offer!
Great service. Wonderful people. And best of all my lawn looks fantastic!!!!!
Equity Green has been great! Excellent customer service. Their crew takes the time to treat your yard with what it needs. Highly recommend over TruGreen, Scotts and Green Forever.
Equity green does a great job and I have been very happy with their service.
We hired Equity Green to manage our yard and after the first application it was weed free. We have now had three treatments and an aeration job and our yard looks amazing! No more crab grass, weeds, etc. They are very prompt and informative. I would definitely recommend them to anyone!
Great customer service and even better lawn care. Will recommend to family and friends.
I hired Equity Green to do my lawn care after trying last year to do it myself. They have applied 1 treatment so far and another this morning and my lawn has seriously never looked so good! Thanks for making it look great Equity Green!
Equity Green is fantastic! Theyre prompt to come out and give you an estimate and also what they best recommend. I have been nothing but happy with their work and the results!

Our yard is weed free with thick lucious silky grass! Thanks for your help Equity Green!
very pleased with the work. our lawn looks great!
Our Yard looked like the Sahara Early this spring, just one year with Equity Green has turned it around. Had just one issue with our billing and after 1 phone call everything was straightened around. Would recommend them to anyone.
