Get matched with top lawn care fertilize or treatment pros in Fort-howard, MD

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

"We purchased our house three years ago and I’ve been struggling to improve the lawn from day one. I know It’s time for an intervention, but I don’t want a ton of chemicals and I hate pushy salespeople (looking at you TG), so I procrastinated getting help. Enter Mark from American Lawn and Tree Specialist. He’s been responsive, informative, and a true pleasure to deal with while I navigate my options. It’s going to take time to get my lawn healthy, but I’m confident that this company is the one who will get it there. I’ve been so impressed, that I may just switch our landscaping contract over to this company as well."

"Estimate:
My experience with Mark's landscaping was extremely positive.  I've used them a few times now and each time has gone well. I contacted Mark and had an appointment for an estimate around a week later.  At the estimate I detailed the job and Mark took notes and offered some ideas.  I really wanted a low maintenance landscaping solution that would look nice year round. I insisted that the plants not be fast growing and that they not attract bees.  WIthin a few days Mark emailed me the estimate, we made some changes, and then scheduled the work for a few weeks later.  
Job Description
1.) For this job they had to uproot many shrubs and their roots and then create new beds.  A garden wall made of stones from EP Henry were installed over two days.  Mark is guaranteeing this part of the job for 3 years.  Commercial weed fabric was then installed and the new plants were planted.  The plants he chose look great and should be in bloom for much of the year.  I have not seen a bee go near them yet!  Delaware river rock was then installed in the new bed.  
2.) The playset mulch had deteriorated and needing replacing.  We decided to go with playground quality rubber mulch.  Mark guaranteed 4" of rubber mulch & underestimated the amount of material required.  Rather than insisting that I pay the full amount for the additional mulch, he only charged me 50% of his cost for the additional material.  There are a few areas still below the 4", but overall it is very good.  My children love the mulch because of the "bounce."  We love it because of the added safety.
3.) In the back of our house we had some decorative rock installed around the foundations.
4.) Regrading of land around foundation, seeding, and straw
Summary:
Here's why you should use Mark.  His crew is experienced and does high quality work and his prices are fair.  As with any job there will be surprises that come up and I found Mark's approach to resolving these surprises to be reasonable and fair.  Mark cares about his reputation and wants to have satisfied customers.  I've used many contractors, including landscapers, over the years and I believe Mark's Landscaping to be near the top.  I highly recommmend them and would use them without hesitation in the future.
PS.  When I have time I'll upload some photos

"My trees were in great need of care after having been neglected for quite a while.  The team was late getting to our house but they performed excellent work.  They left the area relatively clean considering they cut branches out of every single tree.  We also had a dead tree removed and two stumps ground.  The only concern I have is that I called after the service to ask why they had not applied any protective coating to the larger branches that had been cut off.  They returned the call and my sister answered the phone while babysitting my kids.  They tried to explain to my sister why the product had been applied to the tree and she told them that they would have to call back and speak with me.  I called back that afternoon and explained in a voice mail that the issue was not that they had used the coating, the issue was that they had not used it.  I tried calling twice more to speak with someone and my calls were not returned.  Hopefully my trees are not harmed from insects or disease considering there are so many open wounds.

"Byron did an excellent spring cleanup job around my house. His work was impressive that we hired him to maintain our lawn for the rest of the year."

"Very thorough weed/dead grass removal, application of topsoil to needed areas to augment / even the area, prior to laying of sod. Pleased with the results. Thank you. We used a special offer, but also arranged for additional area to be sodded."

"Mike arrived to provide an estimate on time and was polite and professional.  He explained to me that the project would be done in two phases: first a crew would come out to fell and remove the trees and then a second crew would come out the following week to grind the stumps.
The tree felling crew arrived on time and worked quickly.  They absolutely earned an "A" grade as I do not have anything negative to say about them.  The stump grinding experience was very different.  They initially scheduled a day to come grind but never showed up or called to cancel.  I had to call 3 separate times over the course of 6 weeks before I got on their stump grinding schedule again.  This time they did show up and ground the stumps, but left huge piles of tree stump mulch sitting in my yard.
Overall I gave Timbercare a "C" grade because I averaged the "A" I would have given the tree felling crew and the "F" I would have given the stump grinders.  I think that my stump grinding experience was an exception (based on my experience with the tree felling crew and the fact that the company gets high marks from other members) so I will probably give them another chance and will call them again for service.
