We have used Tompkins Lawn Care for a few years and would recommend their services!
Kevin worked with me to get the right lawn and pest treatment for our property. Tompkins has done this for several years. I like that the chemicals they use are environment and pet friendly.
Thompkins Lawn Care is great! They listened to the issues I had with my new sod, created a plan to treat & fertlize, and executed to perfection. I’m happy to say my sod looks 100% better than it did prior to Thompkins getting involved. Thank you Kevin and the entire Thompkins Team! S. Maxson
I’m very happy to have found Tompkins Lawn Care! Kevin and his crew are amazing! Kevin has a vast knowledge after many years of providing exceptional lawn care in the area. I appreciated that he spent time helping me understand more about keeping lawns healthy - and mine in particular. I appreciate his common sense approach and the options available for using organic products. Kevin’s service and his crew were prompt and professional. I look forward to having Tompkins Lawn Care bring my yard back to health and then helping me keep it healthy in the future. Thanks Kevin and crew!
Absolutely, terrible service from Kevin. He criticized another business and tried to get me to switch. I asked him to do aeration and he came up with every excuse for the need to do more. He left the end of the call by suggesting that he had another appointment. The 32 minute 57 second phone call was spent criticizing people for not taking better care of their lawn and bashed another lawn care company. Absolutely unacceptable!! A little advice, don't bash other people and businesses, just talk about what you do well.
Tompkins Lawn Care is AMAZING. I have tried for years to make my lawn look better. Tompkins got the job done for sure. Would definitely recommend them.
All I can say is.....If you want your yard to look the best in town...Go w Tompkins Lawn Care. I have had them going on 10 years now. Kevin and his team are extremely knowledgeable and professional. All my neighbors always ask me what I do for my yard....my reply is always the same. "Tompkins Lawn Care" There is no substitute!!!!
Tompkins Lawn Care has been phenomenal to work with. Professional, responsive, educational and they have my yard looking the best it has ever looked!!! Kevin, the owner, cares a great deal and that is passed to his team. I have never used a lawn service before but everyone on the block is asking what happened and how it happened so fast. The results are incredible!! Steve D.
Quick service. Also blew leaves out of fence areas. Thx
We love Tompkins Lawn Care! Friendly staff and our lawn looks great!
Fertilizer application was done - weed control will be done as weather permits. Thanks!!!
Tompkins Lawn Care , are able to help you take great care of your yard. Are accommodating, and great to work with. Give them a try! You wont regret it!
Great overall experience. Tompkins Lawn Care is top notch.
Tompkins was referred to me for lawn service by one of my friends. Kevin responds to my query/questions and provides lawn care options and proposal in a very quick and professional way. Within 30 mins we reached an agreement and the yard work was planned already. I trust Tompkins a local lawn company to provide the lawn service and am looking forward to the health, beauty, and sustainability of my turf.
Kevin in extremely knowledgeable and gives timely and extensive feedback when consulted. His programs include minimal weed spraying, but instead promote fertilizing for a more lush lawn. This ecological approach really spoke to me. Like many midwesterners, I like my nice green lawn but dont like chemicals. The difference in our lawn in one year is remarkable! I highly recommend Tompkins Lawn Care.
Very pleased with services .Thank you!
Kevin does a great job communicating and gives you the best advice on what is going to make your yard look the way you want it to look.
Excellent service provided with good advice.
Unfortunately cost is just too high to justify for such a small yard.
Kevin s passion for his service is top notch, and his employees are solid as well. Appreciate Kevin s help and guidance in rejuvenating my lawn.
Very good service!!
The owner Kevin cares. Period. He always answers quickly to questions and his people do a great job on my lawn. Ive had other services in the past but I can tell the products he uses are superior.
Great business
I am so very pleased with the service and outcome of this business. With the help of occasional light watering during this awful drought, my lawn somehow looks amazing, drastically different from many in the neighborhood. I especially appreciate that they give us a heads up to keep the pets inside. And when I had significant questions upon first signing up, the owner spent nearly an hour on the phone with me. Any questions Ive sent via email have also been addressed in a timely and informative way. Just as he promised, the thick, healthy lawn weve been working toward seems to be the best tool in combating weeds.
My lawn looks spectacular. What else needs to be said. best in the business.
Im hoping your business will make my next door neighbors envious
Kevin and his staff are great. My questions are answered promptly and they work with me to customize service. The best around!
Absolutely the best lawn care provider around!!! My lawn is the envy of the neighborhood
Our lawn was mostly clover , quack grass, and dandelions. I d like to thank Tompkins for a job well done. We now have a beautiful lawn that we can enjoy. I would recommend them to anyone that is in need of lawn care.
Very professional and our yard looks amazing! highly recommend.
I am a new customer and have appreciated all the communication and frankness to date. Honest. Direct. And comes through. What more do you want from a lawn care professional?
Cant afford their services , to expensive ! But seem to do good work .
I Have been Using Tompkins Lawn Care for 10 years now and if you want to support a company that puts YOU above profits look no further. Kevin goes to lengths to make sure what they apply to your lawn is safe and effective for you, your family and pets. Oh yeah and you will have the nicest looking yard on the street :)
Kevin Tompkins and crew are absolutely the BEST! We ve done business with them for over 18 years! They get my HIGHEST recommendation. The personal connection and professionalism can t be beat! Thanks Tompkins Lawn Care for taking care of us for so many years.
They are very friendly and informative
I have been using Tompkins Lawn Care for several years and have been very impressed with their service. They use high quality products that are safe for the environment, the employees are friendly, helpful, and efficient, and my lawn has looked so green and lush. I highly recommend Tompkins.
Fertilizer & aeration
There isn t a thing this company can do! They answer all my questions. I would recommend them to anyone which I have on FB!
Tompkins can help any lawn look amazing in even the poorest of soil conditions!
Have been using Thomkins Lawn Care for several years now. Very pleased with the service. Employees are professional and courteous. Get compliments on my lawns appearance all the time.
Tompkins turned my lawn around in one year. This will be my third year having them help me out. They are priced right, and their timing for lawn nutrients is great. Also environmentally conscious! Worth every penny.
What a great family owned company. They do amazing work, my yard always looks awesome thanks to them.
We moved into our home in May 2017 and the lawn had been neglected. We immediately hired Tompkins and within a year our lawn was plush, green and healthy. Our neighbors now ask us for Tompkins contact information because there is a distinct line where our lawns meet.
Great service!
Tompkins took my lawn from Quack Grass mess to a beautiful thick lawn. I have asked many questions over the years and everyone gets answered with detail and explanation. I comment every year about how great our lawn looks compared to our neighbors with other services. Best lawn care service in the area!!
Tompkins has provided lawn care services for my business for the past two years. They have been very consistent and our grounds are always kept up. The guys do a great job of being respectful of our guests and vehicles when they are working on the property.
A few years ago I had major issues with my lawn. I reached out to a few of the name brands with little satisfaction. I was referred to TLC by the sod company who installed my lawn a few years prior. It was evident on the first call that Kevin knew his stuff . The level of education he provided me and the time he committed to teaching me was immeasurable. The saying of you get what you pay for stands true with TLC. Don t be taken by those that hire the cheapest labor and use inferior products. Invest in a true professional that will take care of your lawn as if it were his own. Kevin may not be the biggest or the cheapest lawn care company, but he is the best. Give him a call. It will be worth your time.
Tompkins has been great to work with both in quality of service and communication. I would highly recommend!
You will notice your yard is one of the nicest around thanks to Tompkins Lawn Care!
Tompkins helps me with their professionalism and attention to detail achieve a lush green lawn that I can be proud of.
Ive been using Tompkins for years now coving multiple properties and after moving. I first signed up after noticing that yards in my Walford neighborhood with Tompkins signs looked better than mine did. They fixed that problem for us and weve never stopped using them.
I love Tompkins!!! My yard is gorgeous. Their bulk mulch is the best. I have zero complaints.
Locally owned, high quality service, and fantastic customer service. I ve been a customer for 8 years and recommend Tompkins to anyone who asks.
After trying two different lawn care companies over the past 6 years, Tomkins was referred to me by a friend. We started using them first thing this year, and the level of care they take in our undulating lawn to ensure no scalping, etc. is impressive. Im leaving this review today because, after a mow, I received an email to let me know that there may be an issue with our irrigation system as there was excess water on the lawn. While there was no issue, I really appreciate the customer service and attention to detail of the entire team to make sure were being well taken care of. I strongly recommend their services.
If your messing around with one of the big commercial companies but want a nice yard, fire them and hire Tompkins Lawn Care!
We had been customers for 8 years and had always been thrilled with our lawns appearance. In addition to lawn care, we have a large ash tree in the front yard we began using Tompkins to apply treatments in order to prevent Emerald Ash Bore. Over the last 2 years, the tree started showing early leaf dropping in late summer and overall thinning of leaves compared to the next door neighbors 3 Ash trees so we had a tree specialist come take a look. The tree expert told us we should only be treating the tree every 2-3 years and the likely cause of our tree health was due to over-treatment of pesticides. Upon checking my records we realized Tompkins had sent us the same email approximately every 10 months stating, Its been 2 years since your last treatment against Emerald Ash Bore. These treatments need to continue now for effective control [...] we intend to continue this treatment unless otherwise notified. I confirmed continuing treatment from Tompkins upon receipt of each of these emails. As soon as I realized this error, I sent an email letting Tompkins know they were sending communications that were incorrect as well as accepting responsibility for not double-checking my records prior to confirming treatment. My main concern was to make sure they did not treat our tree again this year which would have been the 4th treatment in less than 4 years. I received a quick response which I thought was a good sign, but when my husband called Mr. Tompkins to discuss, it was clear Mr. Tompkins did not want to hear our concerns, but wanted to alleviate any possible liability he had for treating the tree. He blamed me for not realizing they were sending mass email messages, claimed their company couldnt possibly keep track of all their customers to know when each tree should be treated, claimed there were hundreds of reasons a tree could lose its leaves early... again all to absolve himself of any wrong-doing and never accepting fault for the inaccurate emails. We mistakenly put our trust in a lawn care company to be the experts they are paid to be. This company made it clear they are not capable or willing to keep track of services in order to apply the right treatment at the right time. We now know we were wrong to trust Tompkins and were wrong to think the owner would want to know about a customer concern or take any ownership for inaccuracies in their customer communications. I would not recommend working with this company as you are nothing more than a check in his pocket. If you ever have an issue with his service, save yourself the time and energy and dont bother letting him know.
This is our first year with Tompkins after many years with another lawn care service. We are extremely pleased with our decision to switch!
I have used Tompkins for years. Kevin is great to deal with. The first year we didnt want fertilizer in our front yard where our daughter played. That was no problem. He is very fast to respond if I have a question. I highly recommend this company.
Highly recommend Thomkins! I saw them doing service on my neighbors lawn, gave them a call, and within 3 minutes I had a quote for services. When they finished with my neighbors lawn, they completed a full lawn aeration. Kevin was super easy to work with and honest about the services offered for my lawn. Ill have them back many many times again.
Great service, providing a better way to fertilize and care for lawn. Replies quickly to questions and/or concerns. I recommend this service for a better option for lawn care. Everyone needs do their part to slow down the damage to our environment. This company provides options to help do that. Services
I was very happy with the service. My yard didn t look great before this year. Now it looks great, and the weeds and crabgrass are gone. The team takes their time doing the work, unlike others I d used in the past. I highly recommended them.
The team at Tompkins is very responsive, helpful, and quite caring. Simple questions that Ive presented in attempt to learn how to care for my yard have been met with detailed instructions and advice. The service theyve performed has been great. They are a professional organization in a industry where maybe thats not so common.
Tompkins always does a very good job of handling our weed, feed, and pest control. In the past theyve assisted with erosion control. And they always provide tips on appropriate solutions. Its the nicest lawn in the neighborhood. Looks like lush carpet -- thanks Tompkins!
We have used Tompkins for over 10 years now and even asked them to move to our new house to continue the service. We love them because theyre local, they have committed employees and theyre always receptive to my needs as well as questions anytime they come for service. They not only have helped me with our lawn needs, but snow removal needs as well. Just all around great to work with.
Tompkins Lawn Care has taken care of our lawn care since day 1 (ten years ago). They understand and know what it takes to make a lawn/landscape beautiful. They also do our mowing. They are efficient, courteous and organized. Highly recommend this business!
Reliable.
We have used Tompkins Lawn Care to care for my business grounds. Their staff is friendly and very considerate of our vehicles and pedestrians around the building. Our property is well taken care of and always looks sharp thanks to Tompkins.
We have used Tompkins for years and they keep our yard looking great! Their system is very organized and they are easy to work with too.
Prior to using Tompkins Lawn Care I had always tried to take care of my lawn needs by myself. With the poor ground (little topsoil) in North Liberty I wasnt having much luck. In my neighborhood I noticed that there were several lawns that looked so much better than the rest. What did they have in common? They were treated by Tompkins. I decided to try it out and I have not been disappointed.
This is a first rate lawn and landscape company. Its locally owned and the employees are full-time, knowledgeable professionals. That makes a big difference. Over the last several years, I have hired Tompkins for all of my routine lawn feedings and aeration, occasional help with lawn maintenance and snow removal, and several bigger residential landscaping jobs. The results are consistently excellent. I especially appreciate that they warmly and patiently advise me on my lawn and landscaping/plantings!
This was our first year using Tompkins Lawn Care and we are so happy with their service. I wish I had taken before and after pictures but the change in our lawn was huge. Goodbye to the weeds and creeping Charlie, hello to healthy thick grass. The workers were very friendly and helpful, even volunteering to blow my last area of leaves. I would highly recommend this company.
