Get matched with top lawn care fertilize or treatment pros in Clarksburg, MD

"For the past two years, I've trusted Dono at American Lawn and Tree Specialists to fertilize and protect our lawn, trees and shrubbery. He's a conscientious, careful, and skilled technician who's addressed blight while protecting adjacent plants. Our lawn looks great. We're very satisfied with the customer service and results. I highly recommend this business without reservation."

"Rick returned our calls promptly and gave us a fair quote for services. Baumann's does not overcharge or upsell. Once we settled on Baumann's Landscaping as our contractor, we called Rick and the crew were out the next morning promptly at 9am. We were expecting two days of work to clear the brush, but they completed the job in 4 hours. The crew went above and beyond, killing vines choking our trees, mulching all the deadfall, and pushing the brush line all the way back beyond the trees (we live on Maryland wetlands). Fast, prompt, great job. Would absolutely hire again. A++."

"Not all the employees treat the entire lawn..."

"We hired SavATree several years ago to assess our dying maple trees. They recommended a treatment plan and literally saved our trees from being cut down. The trees are treated quarterly and are thriving. We recently hired SavATree to trim all of our trees (4 large maples and 5 large crepe myrtles). They did an EXCELLENT job and I cannot praise the arborist and team highly enough. Polite, professional, communicate very well, very neat - nice trucks with the latest equipment, great uniforms. Shout out to Kevin Garone and his team. We will never use any other company. We are highly satisfied customers. SavATree is the BEST."

"Tracy Addison is Phenomenal! Amazing customer service, polite, knowledgeable, hardworking! She did an amazing job taking care of our lawn, she even left us with tops on how to care for our lawn until the next treatment. Her expertise is unmatched. I pray we're able to receive services from her for our next appointment. THANK YOU Blades of Green!!"

"When they did the edges, I didn’t want them to put the bricks there. I wanted them to put a trench to separate where the grass started and the flower bed. I asked them to do it because I wanted it to look more professional and not like something crazy I did that wasn’t straight. It looks very crooked like something I would have done. The front they did well. I told him and he came back out and let him off the hook. He acknowledgeable that he could have done a better job. They didn’t’ put the extensions on the down spout far enough. So now I need to re-dig and make them lower or add more top soil above. They didn’t do a professional job as I would have liked. They were supposed to spray and a couple of days later I noticed that none of the vegetation was dying. I called back and they acknowledge it and came back out. They were responsive.    I tried to use them again but they were not responsive."

"Everything went wonderful words cannot express how great of a job Hayes Lawn care did"

"Allison was in charge of our project to overhaul our jungle of a backyard. We gave her carte blanche and she proposed several creative options to respond to our budget. we were very happy with her attention to detail and prompt responses to our changing requirements. The work was done very quickly (one day), and the results were even better than expected. The workers were also great, and efficient. When I asked them to make a change after they had already packed their tools, they responded to my instructions very nicely and did it on the spot. We were so happy with them that we have retained them for monthly clean up. We would highly recommend Clip Lawn Care."

"Things were going quite well until I inquired about bagging excess grass that lay on the lawn and flower beds after the job was done. I was then told that it would cost an extra $3.00 weekly to bag grass. I decided to rake up the excess instead (saving money for me). I thought the grass was being cut too low; therefore,  I then inquired about mower blade height and was told it would cost an extra $4.98 weekly to raise or lower the blade. I have been a homeowner for longer than the provider is old, have had several lawn companies attend my lawns and have never, ever, heard of such a thing....from any company.
The provider simply wrote, "If I did not charge every customer the labor to change blades or lower, or raise them I would be loosing every job. If I did not charge to bag I will be loosing with dump fees labor fees. Eventually it will add up. Please understand ." He said it would take an extra 10 minutes to adjust blades. The county waste dump is within 5 miles.
Needless to say, his services were terminated.  What started out as a $25 weekly fee would have increased to $31.92 weekly and $131.92 monthly  instead of $100 monthly per 4 weeks  had I accepted the provider's proposal.
 Mind you, clipping hedges and general lawn work was not included....just mowing. Oh, after the family mulched the flower beds, the provider's crew blew grass clippings in the beds atop the mulch. Yes, I did mention this to the provider and the blowing continued. I was simply  not satisfied. Perhaps someone else might like the additions, but not us. My neighbor, I think, uses their services and might be satisfied. I did not inquire.

"I was impressed with meeting Mike and by all the favorable reviews on Angie's List. As he was also the cheapest of the 3 bids I got, I happily decided to use him. We met twice to talk about what I wanted and to get his advice on some problematic areas I wasn't sure how to handle. He said he would come by one more time before work to finalize plans; also, we hadn't looked at any actual stones together. However, the team showed up one day and began work before we had done so. The stone was not what I had been expecting (in our conversations we had referred to "fractured flagstone", which to me suggested irregularity, but the new patio is a geometric design with square and rectangular stones). However, they had already begun work on it and I'm pretty easy-going so I let that go. The demo all went well and the new dry stack retaining wall was (and is) perfect. The trouble began with the retaining wall in front of the garage, the "problematic area" I had asked for advice on. The ground sloped to an embedded wooden plank before the garage, making getting bikes out difficult. One company had suggested putting in a berm there; MIke suggested a kind of curved retaining wall, which I had ok'd. However, the wall as built was dry stack, which would have fallen apart in no time in that heavily trafficked area. Not only that, it was so close to the garage that the doors could not fully open any more. I asked them to re-do it, moving it farther away and cementing the stones into place. On the flagstone patio I asked for the edge to be curved out. Twice I showed the foreman the curve, drawing it in sand. Oddly, the completed curve was only half the width of the patio, rather than the whole width I had drawn. I felt bad asking them to re-do it, but the problem was the stepping stone path going from the patio down to the retaining wall looked really weird coming out from the non-curved area. (The path itself was not what I expected; again, a "fractured flagstone" path suggested to me a bunch of different stones 2-3 feet wide, in a natural, irregular path. Instead, it is just one large rectangular stone after another). I suggested adding some stones around the part of the stone path abutting the patio to make it blend in better. The team (Mike was not there himself most of the time) willingly made the changes, and quickly. They also charged for every single change, so that I wound up paying as much as the competitors' bids. While not totally happy with that, I felt that I was partly at fault for not being clearer up front. Though with Mike's experience and level of professionalism, not to mention the fact that he seemed to "get it" immediately, I honestly didn't think there was a communication issue. Still, I decided to let it go. Within a few weeks, some of the stones on the edge of the patio began coming apart. I called Mike and told him the problem and also passed on some advice from a contractor who had been doing work on the house. He fixed the part of the patio coming apart. A couple of months passed; stones in the middle began looking uneven, and two stones cracked. Mid-winter, the stepping stones sank into the ground by an inch or two, and the steps that go down to the retaining wall were coming apart. By early spring, the extra fractured stones around the path had come completely apart. They look like someone just took stones and laid them upon the ground with no prep work. We called Mike and asked him to come look at the problems. One reason I wanted to have him come out early was that we were doing some work on our house later in the spring, and I wanted him to see the condition of the stones before their deterioration could be blamed on house contractors. He put some new stone dust over the top of the patio, not really addressing the root problem (which I fear is that the base was not done correctly). He fixed the stepping stones so that they're not sinking any more. He did not comment on or address the other areas that are coming apart. I'm deeply disappointed and frustrated. In his trips out, Mike seems to have never noticed that all of the stones (except for the retaining wall) don't seem to have been set correctly. In the end I paid as much as I would have had I gone with a competitor. I have areas of the work that need to be re-done, but Mike seems to only want to top-dress them with stone dust. I can't afford to pay another company to re-do the work properly. I'm puzzled by the terrific reviews that I've consistently read, and unsure what happened in this case."
