Get matched with top lawn care fertilize or treatment pros in Millbrook, IL

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

"Communication was extremely difficult. It was hard to connect with the provider and they seemed to have their own problems communicating with each other. These communication issues resulting in the contractor aerating my lawn twice in one week, tearing up my lawn. The first time the work was done, I was pleased. I had a few stressed areas in the lawn that held up nicely. A couple days later, someone else from the company showed up to do the aeration. Thankfully, they realized it was done and left. They sent me an email letting me know of the mixup. A few days after that I received an email that my aeration had been rescheduled. I immediately responding to the email telling them the work had been done, but received no response. Just a few days later, another tech showed up and aerated the lawn again. Perhaps just because they were aerating on top of a recently aerated lawn, or perhaps the person was just more aggressive with the machine, but the stressed areas of my lawn now look like dirt patches. I was debating using these guys again in the spring, but have not intention of that now."

"They are very good. They do good work. I think they are very careful about what they do. It just looks good when they get done. It looks natural. It doesn't look weird. I don't think they have done any lawn fertilizing and treatment. I don't have a clue about what we paid for the services. They respond right away and clean up after themselves really well. They will consult with you about the stuff. They are very good about redoing what you want. I really don't know about the price because my husband wrote the check. He hasn't complained so I guess it is fine."

"Erica and Ignacio are prompt at responding to requests and my lawn has never looked better!"

"The arborist, Joe, came out fairly quickly after I contacted them for a quote.   At the time I was thinking of having the branches over my roof removed, but was concerned how that would affect the aesthetics and symmetry of the tree.   Joe suggested the cable supports which I readily agreed to - a nice solution.   In looking at the apple tree, which has been diseased for a few years, losing branches each year, Joe informed me that its disease, fire blight, is incurable and the best course of action would be to have it removed.   This confirmed my initial thoughts on the matter.    A quote arrived a few days later.   I also received quotes from other tree services, and felt this was the most cost effective quote.   However, I had some questions and wanted to propose a modification to part of his proposal.   It took me having to contact the business 2 or 3 times before I received a callback from Joe.   Once we settled on how I should mark up the proposal, I faxed it in with the advanced payment and my signature accepting the proposal as marked up.   After waiting several days for a call back to schedule an appointment I decided to call to get the job scheduled.   A day later Joe called and we scheduled the job.   The crew was scheduled to arrive at 2:00 pm on November 12, but did not show up until around 2:45 pm.   (Remember we are now on standard time and it gets dark early.)    They got to work on the apple tree first and took it down in a professional manner.   They were accommodating in leaving branches of a certain diameter range behind that I could use for firewood.   (I did not request that it be cut into firewood size pieces, as that would have been expensive.   Nonetheless they did cut some of the long branches down to smaller sizes and hauled it to the back of my lot as requested.)   The equipment for the ash tree cabling work arrived around 4:15 - 4:30, as the sun was setting.   They worked on the tree well into the darkness, finishing up around 5:40.  This seemed rather dangerous to me, but they did finish the job.   They also trimmed off a few dead branches from the ash tree.  The next day I looked at the cables and was a bit surprised at their location (attached to branches connected with branches overhanging the roof, rather than attached to the ones overhanging the roof themselves).   I called the business to inquire about that, and was advised that Joe would take a look at the cabling work sometime next week.   Surprisingly he showed up later in the morning with another tree expert.   They looked at the work done and explained why the cabling locations selected were, in fact, the best.   So in this case Joe was quite responsive and assuring.  (Yes, the branches remained intact during the huge storm of November 17.) <br /> <br /> <br /> <br />I was told that the stump grinder would be there around 10:00 am the next morning, 11/13, but they didn't show up.   Around 11:00 am I contacted the business, which consulted with Joe, who indicated that they are scheduled for Friday, 11/15, at 1:00 pm.  (Not sure why I was told they would be there the next morning!)   I had a lunch appointment at that time, but I figured that they could probably start and I would still get back before they were finished.   (Because some JULIE cables were running right by the stump, I wanted to be sure there were no problems before the crew leaves.)   So I had to cut the lunch appointment short to get back, but no one was there.   An hour later I called the business.   They checked with Joe who said that the stump grinding crew was having some problems, but would be there later - around 3 pm.   No one showed up at 3:00, and I went on an errand around 4:00 and didn't get back until around 4:30, when I found a voicemail saying that the stump grinder was broken and they'd have to reschedule the appointment - probably for later this week (week of Nov 18).   As of 11/19 I haven't received any updates on the stump grinding schedule. <br />"

"Took care of all the outside area, even power eashed. <br />Took out a mouse from the basement. <br />Great professionalism and customer service."

"Unfortunately, they were alomst twice as much as the company we ended going with (Hernandez Bros) and the patio area was half the size or less of what we told them we wanted. The landscaping design they came up with was nice, no WOW factor though. I had also asked them about a pergola, they said they don't do them, but their sister company (don't recall now the name) did them and they would get with them to get us an estimate for that at the same time as the hard and landscape, but never got it."

"After my last experience with a lawn service I was very apprehensive about hiring another service provider. I am very glad I called Armadillo Lawn Maintenance. They were professional, punctual and provided exceptional service. I will definitely be using them for all of my lawn care needs in the future. <br />"
