Staff is unprofessional and rude. Additionally they make false claims regarding the safety of the chemicals used in relation to animals and pets. We spoke to the manufacturers for their products who are willing to help us out should it become a legal battle with them because the claims they’ve made are unsafe.

I’ve been using their lawn services for over a year, and one day I got a call from a collection agency about a missed payment. I immediately contacted the company, and it turns out my payment was declined because I had gotten a new card and forgot to update my autopay information. Instead of calling me to resolve the issue, they sent it straight to collections, which I found ridiculous. On top of that, their lawn services were subpar, with weeds constantly in the yard, yet I never complained. And then this happens.

A + Lawn Service restored the life of my yard. My yard looks great. When I called them the owner explained everything to me and then sent out an email and then paper invoice to explain the services I bought and when they will come. You don't have to be home. They know what they are doing. The people are curtious.

Amazing service! With a phone call, we arranged service that came to our driveway, rapidly completed. Lawn mower clean as new, with sharp clean cuts and no smoke. We’re delighted and will definitely be return customers. Recommended!

The guy that came to apply weed control was great. He applied the weed control where it was needed. He even sprayed it by hand around where the flowers were at. Great job.

They have been very helpful in getting our yard back in better shape. Had a tech come out and take a soil sample, tell me what the issues were and how to fix them. With the recent rain the yard is looking much better. Also the office staff has been great to work with.

Had my riding mower blade sharpened and the mower lubed. I've forgotten the technicians name, but he did a very good job. He was quick and efficient. I had mowed prior to the service. My 2nd time mowing was much better after the service. Quite pleased with how my lawn looks.

David is a very polite & conscious young man. Talked with him a few minutes about our yard & property since this was our first treatment after signing up with A+. He explained everything very clearly and asked to contact him with any questions. He was very careful spraying near flower beds but still making sure to get all areas of our lawn covered. Great job David!

Good, But it would be helpful if the applicator tried to make contact with the homeowner. I asked for a reap application and marked all of the problem. Areas were very few with orange flags. The applicator arrived, and apparently re-sprayed the entire yard Unfortunately, he missed the areas that I had marked Again.

She will get in touch with me when the results are back. Thank you for your prompt reply, Marilyn D. Arnold

Neither my wife nor I were present when the service was provided; so no feedback is possible. One point: after both applications this season, I found no fertilizer or herbicide granules on the driveway or sidewalk. I questioned the adequacy of the application, but the grass is green, thick and mostly weed free.

This is my first year of using A+ and so far, so good, with the first two lawn applications of spring 2024! They ve lived up to their name!

The email notifications of the lawn applications are prompt and invoices easy to read.

I used to use them and they did such a poor job at lawn care I stopped. I used them for holiday lights and they did such a poor job I stopped. Then when Rainking sold the irrigation business to A+ I found myself using them again and they did such a poor job I stopped. Not A+ more like D-!

If I could give Aplus a minus rating I would. Aplus doesn t return phone calls half the time, they show up for appointments about half the time and our lawn looks awful. This past week they over charged me for a part on our sprinkler system by $475. They conceded it was their error. However, I m on autopay. If I hadn t taken the time to review the invoice, we would still be out $475. Maybe it was a mistake or maybe it s only a mistake if the cardholder questions it. Who knows?

★★★★★
January 24, 2024

A plus has been great . The same person comes most times and is very professional and quick. I only had one problem when a different person showed and did aeration. It was definitely not done. I had no little round dirt pieces on my lawn. I called and they sent someone to look at it. Unfortunately I happen not to be home and they left a message on my door I was wrong and it was done. If I was home I would have had them show me. If it happens again I wont be signed up for aeration.

★★★★★

Kennedy was very friendly and knowledgeable. He helped evaluate that our sprinklers were functioning properly, made recommendations on how long and often to run our sprinkler system, and noticed that one of our sprinkler heads was the wrong type for that area of the lawn. He also answered a variety of questions that we had about discolored spots in our yard, including what they were and what to watch out for. Would recommend!

I used them for sprinkler winterization. Service person showed up got access to the Irrigation system and left without even letting me know. I really dont k ow if the work is completed or not. I checked after 2 hours, my garrage door and access points left open and she is no where around and their truck is gone too. Very IRRESPONSIBLE and UNPROFESSIONAL. This is my 3rd worst experience from using their service. I even received a Howd we do? email, and when I gave them the above feedback, their response was to remind me of a pending balance no apology let alone an acknowledgedment. These people are all about the money...Id skip and look elsewhere.
