They are very responsive and thorough. I like that they are owners and operators! They don't farm out the work to others. Our lawn looked better after one application!

My yard was quite a mess, looking more like a weed garden than a lawn. After just 1 visit it's already looking substantially better. And it was all pretty easy and painless to arrange.

We were looking for a new weed/fertilizer company for the upcoming 2019 spring/summer/fall season. Jeff has been great in his responsiveness to my calls and questions to get a bid. We are moving forward with Greener Alternative and anticipate a great relationship moving forward. I can't rate work quality yet as they have not provided any lawn applications at this time. We also have a problem with Japanese beetles and they have a grub control application that they will put down for us as well.

Details: Once a month • Residential • Medium (1,000 - 5,000 sq ft) • Front yard or lawn • Back yard or lawn • Side yard or lawn • Fertilizer application • Standard grass (under 6 inches) • Over a month ago • No, I don't need to be there

Double pass aeration went well in front and side yard. Worker told me he was worried about tearing up the back yard turf with two passes, so he would do a single pass and then check in with me. Well, he never checked in with me after that... he just aerated the back yard, then loaded up his tractor and left. I never was completely sure if he did one pass or two in the back yard. Also, I had the check ready for him, so it would have saved me a stamp and the company some delay in receiving funds if he had collected payment upon completing the job. Job was completed on time at a reasonable rate. One thing that would have made it even better would have been a super quick leaf blower or broom cleanup so all the vehicle and foot traffic on the fresh plugs didn't smash the dirt into my driveway.
