Working with Home Gnome was great. From the time of their arrival to our property until the job was completed everything ran smoothly. My son and his spouse were very pleased with the outcome. This was supposed to be a one time job however we will continue working with them for more lawn care jobs.

Details: Home • Just once • 1,000 - 5,000 sq ft (0.02-0.11 acres) • Standard (up to 6 in) • Bag and haul • No, I don't need to be there

Home Gnome's reply

Sounds like everything went smoothly from start to finish - that's what we're going for! Really glad your son and his spouse were happy with how the lawn turned out. Looking forward to helping you out with more projects down the road!

Need your yard spruced up? These are the guys to call. I’m retired and a bit on the procrastinator, they came by and had my lawn looking better licitly split! Lawns aren’t all they do either. Next week they’ll come by and remove a tree I no longer want. Give them a call they’ll be there!

Details: Home • Every 2 weeks • 1,000 - 5,000 sq ft (0.02-0.11 acres) • Standard (up to 6 in) • Mulch • No, I don't need to be there

Home Gnome's reply

5 stars - that's great to see! Sounds like your lawn came together nicely. Looking forward to getting that tree taken care of for you next week. Thanks for recommending us to others!

They did a GREAT job with the actual work. Mike from the subcontracted company (I forget who it was) did a fantastic job with my whole lawn, front and back. I learned how landscaping differs from lawn care and will be able to narrow that better next time. I only wish I'd been made aware that they subcontract to other companies. I'd also have liked to have them contact me to give me a time window rather than leaving me hanging without a firm confirmation. Outside of those two things, it was excellent service.

Details: Home • Once a month • Less than 1,000 sq ft (<0.02 acres) • Tall (up to 12 in) • Yes, I must be present

Home Gnome's reply

Hey there! Really glad Mike took good care of your lawn - he does solid work. You're absolutely right about the communication piece, and I hear you on wanting to know upfront about the subcontracting. We'll definitely work on being clearer about that process and getting better with timing updates. Thanks for taking the time to leave such helpful feedback!

Back in May, I booked lawn care through HomeGnome. While there were initial issues with the service, HomeGnome did work with me to resolve everything to my satisfaction. They followed through, addressed my concerns, and repairs were completed. I appreciate the effort to make things right and am updating my rating to reflect the positive resolution.

Details: Home • Every 2 weeks • 1,000 - 5,000 sq ft (0.02-0.11 acres) • Standard (up to 6 in) • Bag and haul • No, I don't need to be there

Home Gnome's reply

Appreciate you taking the time to update your review! We know things didn't start off perfectly, but we're glad we could work together to get everything sorted out. That kind of feedback helps us do better, and it means a lot that you gave us the chance to make it right.
