This review is for customer service not actual service because it turned out when I called about winterizing, that I live too far from them to be a client. But I think his name was Rusty or Russ (I'm sorry, I forgot), he took my name and number and offered to call back with referrals for companies that cover my area. He called back 10 minutes later with two referrals. It was so professional and courteous of him to take time to help out someone who's not his own customer that I have to give him props here in a review. Thank you!

This was, I think, roughly two years ago but I'm shopping for a new lawn care service and saw this company so thought I owed a review. I was pleased enough with their service until they did a "fall lawn rejuvenation service", or at least I think that's what they called it. Their business practice was to send a letter in the mail stating that a non-reply was implied consent to proceed with the service (that's right, if they don't hear anything.they assume your consent). Well, if I received this letter, I must have assumed it was junk mail because I never read it.

They did the treatment, which I assumed was part of my contract, but then I received a $350 (if memory serves correct) bill. I objected, and they said they would remove from my bill. I then receive a bill for 1/2. I ultimately paid and terminated my contract because this whole "implied consent if we don't hear anything" is SUCH an intentionally unethical business practice that I decided I couldn't do business with this company.

The crew who worked on my lawn did an exceptionally great job. Our neighbors have complimented us on how good our lawn looks!

Your technicians have always been very courteous and thorough. They take the time to explain what they are doing and answer all my questions (I had lots). They are a pleasure to work with. Thanks. P.S. Our lawn looks amazing! The best on the block - we didn't know it was possible.

Always a pleasure speaking with your staff - they are willing to answer questions as they arise. Our yard is the envy of the neighborhood because CLS has conditioned it over the years. Thank you for another beautiful growing year!

Complete Lawn put in a sprinkler system about 15 or more years ago. Rusty one of the owners designed the system. He was from Arlington and went to Yorktown HS the same time I went to WL HS. They have been maintaining the system over the years. I have found everyone to be professional, reasonable in price. Very happy and would recommend this company.

Help us clear our driveway during the snow storm, took a bit to get out to us and it wasn't cheap but understandably they were extremely busy with such a load of snow that we all got hit with. Really appreciated the help.

As a long time customer of Complete Lawn Service, I cannot say enough times how satisfied I am with the quality of their work. My family first started using CLS in the 1980's (that sounds so last Century.). I have been using them at my house since 1994. They took what was mostly crab grass, weeds and moss and turned my yard into the envy of the neighborhood.

People have actually stopped their cars to ask what we do to have such a wonderful lawn. Once we had CLS install the sprinkler system, our lawn and beds have continued to flourish without me having to get up at dawn to water. I have recommended CLS throughout our neighborhood and I know they have installed at least two other sprinkler systems, maintain at least another two they didn't install, and handle the yard maintenance for at least four other families.

I also use CLS on properties I manage. Their entire staff is courteous and knowledgeable, and if needed, you can speak with the Owner should there be a problem. Complete Lawn Service is a locally owned and operated family business that knows the meaning of customer service and loyalty. They are definitely worth the call!

I've used complete lawn since I purchased my house 20 years ago! The previous owner did and the lawn looked so good we kept the service. This past year I had them do lawn cutting and leaf removal in addition to the 7 visit lawn care program. Very good company.

We have been Complete Lawn Service clients for a little over 5 years now. We have been in our house for 34 years and used several other top name lawn service companies. No one has come close to Complete Lawn for the healthy, green, fullness of our lawn. It has never looked better. We are so glad we gave Complete Lawn a try. It has paid off and we could not be happier. We looked forward to our lawn looking this good for many more years to come.

I have been a customer for more then 20 yrs, complete lawn has done numerous jobs on my property and each time their work has been top of the line. This year I had some health problems so I had them do everything on the property and I was very happy with the job so much that I will have them continue with their work in the years to come. I would advise other people to use them.

We've been using this family owned company for more than 30 years. That says everything you need to know about the quality of the work and the personal service we get whenever we have a question. Neighbors envy how good our yard looks. The last two years I've also been using the mowing service and, while not the least expensive, the work is done right.

Thanks to Complete Lawn, year over year neighbors and passer-bys complement us on our lawn and yard. Complete Lawn has the magic touch. They keep it looking healthy, green and lush. All we do is mow and edge it.

I had a lawn that was a complete mess. Mostly weeds and compacted soil and dead grass. I was skeptical when Complete Lawn Service went to work. They removed the old grass and reseeded. It was the fall and I was convinced I'd have a winter of a dirt yard.

I had a lawn that was a complete mess. Mostly weeds and compacted soil and dead grass. I was skeptical when Complete Lawn Service went to work. They removed the old grass and reseeded. It was the fall and I was convinced I'd have a winter of a dirt yard. Days went by. After a few weeks I had a lush new lawn -- in October! And all winter it was as green as summer. Suffice to say I was impressed. And so were my neighbors.

I have used Complete Lawn Service for my irrigation system. They have performed all types of service from installation, to repair, spring and fall service. The employees are reliable, polite, professional and on time. When thay schedule an appointment time they are here. I have recommended them to neighbors and would highly recommend them.
