They do a great job! Brady always calls the day before to let you know he's going to be there to treat your lawn and answer any questions you have. Things are looking really good! Previous home owner had service with them so I just continued it and have had no complaints. I also had them remove some bushes for me and install some new sod in my back yard which turned out great as well.
Wow - what customer service. Brady was at our home today doing our regular fertilizer treatment. He texted the night before to let us know what time he would be arriving. He showed up 5 minutes before his appointment but didn't come in our yard until his appointment time (so respectful), he completed his job well, treated our yard and then took care of some weeds that had popped up. We have an electric fence that we take down for treatments (which is what makes the communication so awesome) - when he was through with the treatments, he even put our fence back up and was so respectful of our yard. I cannot say enough about the many times we have had great service by Brady through Alternative Environments. Highly recommend this great company for excellent service.
Very professional people. Did a great job on our home landscaping job. Everyone from office receptionist to landscape director Andrew, and the workers were great. Very reasonably priced. Final balance matched the quote. They answered phones and texts promptly. They showed up when they said they would show up, gave updates, and did a fabulous job. Andrew even offered to water my plants while we are out of town. Very pleased with the company and would recommend them to anyone without hesitation.
Used them at my last house a few years back and they did an amazing job getting my yard back. It was completely over grown with weeds but after the first year our yard was gorgeous. We moved but are back in Villa Rica and so far the service has been just as great. The staff is professional and friendly. I can't wait to see the full result by the end of the year!
Saw Brandon out spraying at my Southwire facility I work I asked what he was doing. He very politely walked me through everything. He is very good guy. Very good company as well. Highly recommend.
This company has always given us great service for the last 2 years. During their last visit, our technician Wyatt explained everything he was doing and why, made it a point to be mindful of our dogs, and gave me advice about maintaining our lawn. I highly recommend them!
We have used Alternative Environments for over 10 years have been very pleased with the service that we have received. I'm especially pleased with their flexibility in regards to the days of service. At times we know that we're going to have a lot of visitors on our campus and we want to make sure that our campus looks it's best and Alternative is always flexible in regards to moving the dates if necessary to make sure our campus looks the best it possibly can. When there happens to be some misunderstanding with regards to our service Alternative is very responsive and ensures we are satisfied with the outcome. We could not be happier with the service we receive from Alternative Environments.
I highly recommend Alternative Environments. We've been using them for a couple of years now and our yard has never looked so good. Our spay tech, Madison is super friendly and extremely professional. She always does an amazing job.
Great company!! Quick to respond to any problems and they go above and beyond to ensure you are satisfied. Special thanks to Theresa and Matt.
Lime treatment. Just leaving a 5 star review for Mr. Wyatts performance. We appreciate his professionalism and the prior treatment notice calls. Positive
Wyatt, my tech is very friendly and answered all my questions.
Wyatt is very friendly and customer focused.
I am very happy with the services Alternative provides. Wyatt is always very helpful and friendly. I love that he calls ahead so I know when our yard will be treated.
Great service, quality work and reasonably priced. Highly recommend this company.
I just wants to said Thanks Alternative, Jevon was very helpful and professional, he did a great job thanks Jevon
Madison was very nice. She rang the doorbell as we often requested, and she took her time and made sure she did the job professionally and thoroughly. I HIGHLY RECOMMEND her to be Our technician from here on out
Madison was such a sweet young lady. She s the only tech that ever came to the house and rang the doorbell as we asked them to do upon arrival. She took her time and did the job thoroughly. I can tell she takes her job seriously and she loves what she does. Please let her be our tech always ..
Came for general visit for fertilization & weed control. This we my first service. They fit me in on 1 days notice. Arrived at 8:00 am. Very accommodating. Mike was the technician. He seems terrific. Very cordial and considerate and respectful of my property. Great job so far. Look forward to continued services. So far, highly recommend.
We have used Alternative Environments for years and our lawn always looks great. Our Techs Joe and Mikey make sure to take the time to answer all our questions and inform us of what is being applied to the lawn and the effects we can expect to see. Having dogs I really appreciate the fact no harsh chemicals are being used and they let me know how long until its safe for the dogs to go out on the grass - which is usually as soon s its dried.
Mikey was kind enough to stop and answer questions about the treatment he was applying, and shared advice on how I could get even better results by mowing to a certain height. I appreciate how knowledgeable and friendly he was.
Great company! I have used Alternative Environments for years and my yard looks great! Excellent customer service and knowledgeable staff.
Mikey and the entire Alternative Environments team are awesome! AEI has been taking care of our yard for 20 years and we couldnt maintain our beautiful grass without them.
Andrew and is team did a total yard makeover for us. Our yard looks awesome now! I would highly recommend these guys!
Absolutely the best. A great company, they are very efficient and do great work. You wont find anyone better.
Hard workers and do a good job management is unfair and just because chase aint fair Ill still tell you these men are proud to be apart of the crew doing your landscaping great job fellas
Great company to work with. They were on time, always professional and did a super job. Ill be recommending them to my friends and neighbors.
We first worked with AE on a small landscaping project. Their excellent value and customer service led us to work them on a variety of larger scale projects. Very happy customers!
Awesome
We had AEI come by our yard to check it out and give us an estimate. They were the only company out of 4 that actually offered a solution to our problems, with options within the scope of what we wanted. Thats why we call the experts, thank you! We appreciated Matt (one of the company owners) asking questions to understand why we wanted to have some yard space (for our kids), and were so grateful for his expertise to deliver what we needed. With a shady hillside yard, he showed us where we could install sod and have success (versus a yard of dead grass in 2 years). He outlined how to help with some of our side erosion and the estimate for the project fit within our budget. We kept in touch about when they would start the work and once we had it on the calendar, they came out as planned and finished the work quickly and efficiently. They even helped set-up our home sprinkler for the sod before they left. We were really pleased with everything and plan to reach out again for any future yard updates.
They get it done
Would recommend this company for all landscaping purposes.Professional and knowledgeable. Very responsive to needs of our business.
I received a professional estimate to reconfigure our landscape beds. They relocated several existing plants, installed 18 new shrubs and mulch all the way around the house. They performed the project in one day. cleaned all of the debris from the site and left the site perfect. Their crew was extremely courteous and knowledgeable to perform a very professional job. I would highly recommend Alternative Environments for new design landscape and any property maintenance. We received a finished project above our expectations.
Alternative Environments Services has done a great job over the years with my yard. I ve never had to worry about them showing up or the quality of their service. Demario is courteous, personable, and punctual with our monthly service.
A few weeks ago I was at home when Spencer with Alternative Environments was treating my yard. Spencer was putting lime on my yard with a spreader strapped around him. I wanted to recognize Spencer because a machine would have rutted up my yard with all the rain we ve had and I m glad he recognized this. Also I hardly had any lime if any at all on my driveway. Thanks Spencer for treating my yard as your own.
Was very impressed with Spencer Morgans visit. He was very professional and particularly KNOWLEDGEABLE. Spoke to him about my lawn and a current issue with Poa Annua and last falls fungus problem I had for which there was no response from AE (I was very disappointed - had to treat it myself). He said he would look into having the Poa Annua checked/treated. Very friendly and was very customer oriented. I hope he stays with the company and I can keep him as my lawn specialist.
Great company. I begin using them in the winter of 2019 and hoping for great results this summer (2020). Very professional company. Demario, my current service technician, is always on time and very knowledgeable. A great guy!!
Matt was very knowledgeable, professional, and did a great job at communicating. The work performed was of the highest quality. They were very attentive to all of our requests. Highly recommended!!
I just want to say that these folks are the BEST at what they do and Spencer, my technician, is awesome as well!! Not only are they true to their word....they actually SHOW UP and do their job. Thank you for being so incredible!!
Demario has done an outstanding job for us. He is very cordial and friendly. Another attribute of Demario is his efficiency without appearing to be in haste. He is thorough and professional. We trust his work. We appreciate both he and AEL. Terry & Cheryl Beasley
Spencer and their whole team do a great job keeping our grass looking good!
Spencer does a great job!! Great service!!
We appreciate Alternative Environments - and Spenser, in particular - for their service and schedule flexibility.
Spencer does a great job for us!
Quality work; friendly staff; reasonable price. Overall, we were very satisfied. Staff came back and part two of our landscaping project today and did an excellent job!
Excellent service
Spencer came by to apply pre and post emergents to my lawn. He was very thorough in his approach and application. Have been doing business with AELMI for three years now and have always been pleased with the end results and appearance of my lawn each year. I continue to recommend your services to my neighbors whenever someone makes inquiry for lawn services. Thank you again for your service!
So far so great. They are less money than Trugreen. Service is better too.
I have used alternative environments now at two houses and have loved the outcome. They are professional and their designs and quality of work are top notch. They do what they say they are going to do at an affordable price.
Thanks Matt for the professional work done. From start to finish a great experience..... Positive
I selected AELMI to build a walkway from my driveway to my pool and install Zoysia sod in the backyard. They matched the same brick pavers installed on my patio around my pool and laid 63 feet of walkway in the same pattern as I had on my patio. This also included a landing at the bottom of the deck stairs and ensuring each paver stone was perfectly level for the entire length of the walkway and completed so it would drain correctly. The sod was laid to measure and is a soft, comfortable bedding of grass. Looks great!
Outstanding, exceptional and a bunch of other really cool adjectives to describe Alternative Environments. Every facet of this business is professional, talented, on-time and extraordinarily customer-focused. And let me add, I m a retired guy, only sort of old, but decidedly old-school when it comes to paying for a service and getting that service - exactly THAT service. I no longer expect a business to go beyond the call: Alternative Environments is the exception. If you re considering any type of landscaping (or any other service they provide), look no further than Alternative Environments. I mean, really, stop right there there s nobody better on the planet than this company. And the planet s a really big place. Our job wasn t an easy one. However, from the initial estimate, to the work done, to the follow-through and the final review: masterful. When the crew said they d be back later to finish a few things there were indeed back later. When the crew said they d be back the next day, they were back the next day. They weren t going to be done until we were happy with everything. THIS is exactly how a company should conduct business. I can t be more positive about Alternative Environments. For the purposes of this review, I need to be brief, however, that ship may have sailed. Alternative Environments is the best, no doubt. I ll say this under oath if necessary. Thanks to everyone there for everything!
Excellent work! We had drainage issues in the front and back of our house. Now we have a beautiful river rock bed that keeps the water flowing away from the house.
Great company, great products, great people. I look forward to working with them again soon!
Cody and his crew have been taking care of our property, 1660 Peachtree in Atlanta, for over a year now. Great work, thorough communication and follow up, and most importantly professionalism. Thank you Cody and keep up the great work!
We had a contract for several years with Alternative Environments for lawn treatments and they did an adequate job. They usually treated on a regular basis without being asked. But recently they had not treated our lawn for over 3 months including the spring period when treatments are especially important. We called 3 times over a period of 2-3 weeks before they finally got around to treatment. They never apologized nor gave us an explanation for the bad service. We also found that they charge extra for dollar spot and for treating different types of grass (we have different type of grass in the front and back). These are included in other lawn service fees. Recently I called their number listed on the first page of their website and received a recording saying my phone was not authorized to use this number. That was the last straw. Their service is not acceptable.
When we first started using AEL for our lawn care, they were great. Over the past year we have seen a steep decline in both the quality of their work and their customer service. Finally fired them after a couple of no shows and lawn looking awful. Wed rather do the lawn ourselves than pay for poor service and quality.
Love this company!
Dylan does a grea job taking care of my lawn maintenance.
Great company to help treat your lawn, Dylan does a great job at informing me when he is coming out.
Spencer has done an excellent job the last 2 times he has been here.
Company provides all around great landscape services!
Very knowledgeable in the industry with all different aspects of lawn care and landscaping issues.Good integrity and honest.
They have done what they promised. My yard looks great.
My lawn looks better than my neighbors. No weeds.
Stay away from this company! I singed up for termite service, they installed the baits and never showed up for monitoring, called many times and they kept coming up with some excuses. Finally cancelled the service and was told I was going to get a refund, but nothing so far. I had to dispute the charge. Richard, dont waste your time with your bs answering my review.
At first was was very happy with them. The Sales guys was very helpful and informative. He would answer my calls and emails fairly promptly. But after a while he stop responding. I dont know if he left the company or what. So I email the company directly and I never heard from them. I was told they would let me know prior to any treatments. I also asked for a treatment schedule so I knew what they were putting in my yard. But they just show up out the blue. As for the yard, it doesnt look any better. In fact there are a lot more weeds than before. I will be canceling my treatments and asking for a refund.
Quality services and a very friendly team.
Always professional, informative and on schedule.
Have used AEL now for three (3) years now! Could not be happier! Good folks that shoot straight!
Very thankful for this company and their service. They are always available when we need them and stay on top of things. They went over and above in our pest care and also our lawn care.
They are dependable
Have been very pleased with lack of insects in house since I have had the pest control service. Technicians are professionally smart and friendly.
Excellent company to work with. Honest & reliable!
AEL does a great job and is affordable. --Bob Morris
Excellent service at a reasonable rate. Best I have found in the Douglasville Area!
Customer service is a top priority for AEI. They are always a pleasure to do business with.
I have used Alternative Environments for years and have always been happy with their service.
Great company!
Great service.....!!!!!
Wonderful company to work with and professional from start to finish! Chase helped us at every stage, suggesting ideas for our landscape design and everything came out perfect!
Very Professional service!!
Courteous and friendly service. Good work all round
I have been very happy with the services Alternative Environments has provided to me. My grass is almost weed free, green and coming in nicely this year.
Never have to worry about anything concerning my lawn and it has never looked better. Very professional but also friendly, down to earth every time I call with questions. Never pushy but always helpful. Will always recommend Alternative Environments to my friends and family!
Always professional
Excellent equipment. Excellent maintenance. Good job guys.
I get so many compliments on my lawn. No weeds and greener than any others in the neighborhood.
very good and professional
provide great service on time. I receive a lot of compliments from neighbors about my yard
After core aeration and one treatment my yard is looking great, huge improvement and I can see patchy areas filling in and am very happy with the results so far. The amount of rain we have had in June has certainly helped with the grass growth, but on my own it wouldnt look this good.
I have received top-rate service from AEL Pest Solutions. As a new homeowner that purchased a house with a termite bond from AEL Solutions, I can say that this company stands by its product and its word. When termites were found in the garage, AEL solutions came out, treated the termites and replaced any damage they caused. The president, Richard, came out personally to my house and ensured our family received an excellent standard of care. I couldnt be happier, and so I am happy to recommend this company and its services.
Theyre courteous, take care of the job, they are on time, and if Ive ever had any problems or questions theyre real quick to answer them.
Does a great job.
I would love to comment on Alternative Environmental. I had the operations manager come out and give meet a quote, look over my yard, and we agreed on a price . I was supposed to be put on the schedule but nobody ever showed up. I contact manager he said he would take care of it. Over a week later still nobody. I have seen their work , their treated yards look great. Their product looks to be top of the line. Their customer service needs a lot of work. Still waiting?
It took the company 3 weeks to come out and treat my home and after they come out I paid the $65 and they tell me about their come back policy. I have contacted 3 times in the last 4 weeks and still no response from them. I left a message on Richards voice mail and never heard any thing. I have given them many chances to earn my business and now I am making it public knowledge, maybe this will get thier attention. I do not recommend the pest control side of AEL
