LawnStarter Reviews Summary

The overall reputation of LawnStarter is marred by significant customer dissatisfaction, primarily stemming from unreliable service, communication failures, and inadequate customer support. Many reviews highlight issues such as missed appointments, unexpected charges, and poor handling of service-related damages. While some customers report positive experiences with specific lawn care professionals, these instances are overshadowed by the company's inconsistent service and lack of accountability. The recurring themes of frustration and disappointment suggest a pressing need for LawnStarter to improve its operational transparency and responsiveness to enhance customer trust and satisfaction.

Terrific Work!
April 11, 2024

Mike did a wonderful job with our lawn! I appreciated all the attention to detail. I find that not everyone takes the time to use the weed eater around our fence, but this was not the case with Mike. Thanks for all your hard work!

My backyard is thick with clover and native grasses. Jerry and his crew did a wonderful job, it's never looked this good after recent rain AND the first cut. They even confirmed my emergency request on Saturday and were there by Monday morning!

Terrific service and dependable!
April 9, 2024

Justin has been mowing the front yard and back yard for me for several months. He is always communicative, on time and does excellent work. A few times he even skipped the service a few times because a mow was not needed, which saved me money, and I thought it was very honest of him. I also love the Lawn Starter app because it's very easy to navigate, and I can pay easily as well as view my schedule and pause it if necessary. I highly recommend this company for service. They have been wonderful. I paid $46 a week for my front and backyard which to me is a great deal. I included a picture.

I've dealt with many lawn servicing companies as yard work is something I'm not too fond of. Scheduling with him was a breeze and how quickly they were able to come out and get the work done that I needed was a shock to me. Usually places are a week or so out but this company makes it a point to get out there and do what needs to be done. I'm very happy with the service and quality of work he's performed.

Possibly unreliable
April 6, 2024

Went to their app page after doing a search.and even though we didn't sign up there was a quick and friendly response from them. However, calling them at the 85 5 number the next day there was a lot ofsilence and gaps on the line, dropped calls. It's not certain what their fees would be but if it's going to be frustrating trying to get a hold of a local professional this may not be the right route. It's better not to use an app for these services but find the individual directly.
