We have a very large yard and our first time ever using an agency to treat our lawn. He did Miss some areas that I had requested to be done, but the areas that were done, look great! It was difficult to get them to come out or know when they were coming however the lawn does look good.

Greener Alternatives was free to select their own time frames for treatment of our lawn.  Our tenants indicated that the treatments were down and the yard appropriately marked as having been treated, and the neighbors have commented that the treatment has made a significant difference in controlling the Creeping Charlie, and providing a greener looking lawn. <br />

We have used Greener Alternatives for our lawn service for several years.  We sign up for the annual serivce of treatments for fertilizing and weed control.  When we first hired the company several years ago, we had more weeds than lawn.  After a couple of years, the neighbors were commenting on how great our lawn looked --all we did was cut it, Greener Alternative took care of the rest. <br /> Last year we decided to try a different company that had quoted us a lower rate.  That was not a great experience, our lawn looked worse than it had in several years.  We returned to Greener Alternatives this year and are once again pleased with the service.  The technicians show up several times during the spring/summer/fall and apply the treatments.  They leave their report in the door with suggestions for watering, etc.  We are very pleased with the service. <br />

Greener Alternatives did solid work and I was happy with the services they performed. They are reasonably priced but they have gotten more expensive recently. This year I obtained new bids and was able to obtain a slightly lower rate. I will try out this new firm to see if they will do as good of a job on weed control as Greener Alternatives did. If they do not, I am switching back. I would absolutely recommend them for your lawn care needs. <br />

I've used them for a few years and I'm very happy with this service.  They come out about 5 times/summer and my lawn looks really good.  It started with a lot of weeds and bare spots.  They are very reasonably priced - i have a pretty big yard. <br />

I was looking for help with the weed problem in my yard and called a number of services before selecting Greener Alternative. My neighbors also use Greener Alternative for their lawn care once they saw the fabulous improvement in my lawn. From weeds and bare spots to a healthy thick lawn. I selected Greener Alternative before joining Angie's list.

I am very impressed and pleased with them. Any time I call them with concerns they are fast to respond. Jeff is very knowledgeable about grass or lawn issues. I prefer they call me the night before they come out because I have a dog and they are very faithful about doing that, so we can make sure the lawn is picked up and ready for them. I have recommended them to other people.

They are inconsistent with their services, regarding fertilizing my lawn. My lawn doesn't look that good. I've asked twice now for weed control, they treated it twice, and I still have a lot of weeds. I won't be using them in the future.
