Went on the Thumbtack app. And was given the option of this company. Their prices are sky high. They demand a 3 cut minimum booking. However, on their website they say a one time is available. They take your credit card information. They sent a crew who used old equipment who left rows of grass between the cut rows. They edged and chopped away too much soil and grass. They left an 8 inch row on my front lawn uncut because it was the neighbor's property except it was on my side of his sidewalk. No neighbor is going to come and cross his sidewalk onto my side. Then customer service you can never reach. All their employees are from different countries and difficult to understand. I would spend at least over 2 hours on the phone for 4 days trying to explain to these people what had been, Then they made a decision to decide when they were coming back which was not a day I would be here to watch them. They send you emails that you are not able to respond to. They tell you to go to their app and fill out the forms and speak with their gnomes! I could have had my grass cut 10 times for all the grief I spent online with their so-called gnomes. I had to notify my bank and tell them of the fraud and close out my card. They said they would return my 60 dollars. Who knows. Each time I spoke to a gnome, as they so insult their employees and name them this. A gnome gave me a different story. I will report this to the Illinois Attorney Generals office consumer fraud division and my bank will go after them. All of this grief for a 4000 sq, lawn. Never hire this company and stay away from Thumbtack.com!

Horrible lawn care
June 16, 2024

The guy who did my lawn did it unevenly ( shearing it down to dirt in spots and completely missing other spots. It cant just be cleaned up. I now need to replant my lawn where it hot dirt in large areas. He said he wpuld do edging but didn't do it in the three times he came. It is almost difficult to make such a mess of a nice lawn in such a short time. They should pay the customer.

DON'T MAKE THE SAME MISTAKE!

It's difficult to even give LAWN LOVE one star because they've failed to even mow my entire lawn a single time.

I should have looked here before contacting Lawn Love for mowing service.

After signing up, and agreeing to a three cut minimum, and letting them know access to my fence was limited to a 53 inch gate, I was assigned a "pro," and scheduled for service. After being rescheduled multiple times Oscar Bustos lawn care came out but only mowed the front indicating he couldn't access the back yard, even though they knew ahead of time what size my gate was. Why did he take the job if he didn't have the necessary equipment?

So I tried to get some sort of customer service, and after playing phone tag Megan, from customer support, acted very concerned, told me my job was important to them, and that she would get another crew out to take care of the job. In the mean time I had to mow our back yard, which was incredibly long by this time, and after multiple recent shoulder surgeries, which is why I was looking for a service in the first place. Still, Megan said I would not be charged for the first mowing, and I was then scheduled with RightWay Lawncare and Property Maintenance, 3-4 days later.

It's now been seven days with no rain or inclement weather, and RightWay Lawncare has not shown up, and our lawn has not been mowed AGAIN, and so I will have to mow it myself AGAIN.

Given Lawn Love's incredible ineptitude I will be seeking release from my three cut agreement, since they can't even do it right once. In addition to my review here, I will also be submitting a complaint with the Better Business Bureau.

Worst company ever
January 23, 2024

Was quoted 29.00 and billed 55.99. They did half of the job never did the back yard. I sent 4 text messages letting them know they did only half of the job but no one responds. Refund the money you charged.

I requested to have my lawn mowed from Lawn Love. They came and took pictures of my grass and quoted me over $160 to mow my lawn due to the long grass fee. I declined the service and did it myself. Then it scheduled me for monthly service. I cancelled the appointment on the app and it showed on the app that it was cancelled. After it was cancelled, I got an automated text and email that someone was coming to mow the lawn. I had just had a new driveway put in the day before which cost $17,000. There was caution tape over the wet concrete driveway and a construction vehicle parked on the lawn. The app did not work properly and so the service being cancelled was not properly put into their system. The worker, instead of contacting me or taking pictures and leaving, walked their mower all over the wet concrete, and around the construction vehicle leaving MASSIVE DAMAGE ON MY NEW SEVENTEEN THOUSAND DOLLAR DRIVEWAY. I put in a property damage claim which they say they will reply to, but they have not gotten back to me about it yet. When I tried to cancel the service it said I needed to have a 3 mow minimum. When I called to complain they finally cancelled the service. This was the 1st time they had mowed my lawn and caused thousands of dollars worth of damage. DO NOT HIRE THIS COMPANY FOR ANYTHING. If they do not provide adequate restitution for this claim, I will be reporting to the BBB and start taking legal action against them.

What service?
September 2, 2023

Haven't been able to get service in 4 weeks. One person rescheduled 3 times, we tried another who no showed. Had to text to ask what's up, he replied saying he no longer would service our area. Had to cancel my daughter's backyard party because he literally couldn't pay anyone that would show up. Extremely unprofessional and uncourteous.

We hired them for one service and the guy that was sent used a solid bladed weedwacker around the house resulting in damage to our brand new siding. They asked for a quote then didn't respond for a couple months before finally saying they wouldn't be helping us. Contrary to their website customer satisfaction guarantee or their claims of being bonded and insured.

After having 4 consecutive services scheduled and cancelled by the provider due to "scheduling conflicts" I've cancelled services with Lawn Love.

Cancelling is a funny term because they've never actually serviced my lawn or even shown up to my property. But they have a "3 service minimum" and they're currently at 0 services provided.

Has to be a SCAM!
June 26, 2023

We were using them for lawn service, but now they are trying to charge us for tree debris removal that never happened.
We actually paid another provider to clean up from the storm.
I tried to remove my debit card information from the Lawn Love people, but was not able to do so.
We asked for a quote from them and they provided one. I accepted the quote, but the service was never provided.
We told them that we are not paying their fee to remove tree debris when we have already paid someone else. They kept saying that we accepted the quote, so they will bill us.
This has to be a scam!

They do not text to let you know when they are coming and then charge your card. They would come every 4-5 days and mow when the lawn didn't need it.

This company signs you on with a world of promises and then finds excuses to cancel and reschedule your service. Well guess what the grass doesn't stop growing because the company is unable to secure a pro to do the work. On the contrary it justs keeps getting worse, like when they send a company who really doesn't care if they miss half of your lawn while mowing, then they promise to return and the next message is "I'm sorry your pro is longer going to service your property we'll start looking for another" It might be easier to buy a cow!

Jamall was conscientious and respectful in all of his communications as he took care of my lawn needs. He even sent photos so I could make sure everything was addressed as I couldn't be on site during the service. I highly recommend Jamall to everyone. Thank you, Jamall! From Grateful

Horrible
May 15, 2023

I hired this company last summer for lawn mowing services and it was a complete joke. Every time they texted me saying they were coming out to do my lawn they kept cancelling. They cancelled 5 or 6 times and always gave the excuse that they were unable to come because of inclement weather. Mind you there was nothing wrong with the weather. Those days were perfectly good days they could've come. Then when they finally do show up they do a half $#*! job, leave parts of the grass unmowed, and they have the nerve to mark the job as complete when 95 percent of the job isn't done at all! Really? So this summer as foolish as it is I was still kind hearted enough to give them a second chance and once again, same crap. They constantly cancel and reschedule but never show up. Last summer they sent a woman to cut the grass and she sat in her car the whole time and finally got out and did 10 minutes of work, (if that) and it started raining so she tells me she can't finish the job and she'd be back tomorrow. Surprise! She never showed up. It's like she purposely sat in the car all that time waiting for it to rain so she'd have an excuse not to cut the grass. I'd give this company zero stars if zero was an option.
