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.

The guy who came to mow came on the day he said he would, made quick work of the task and cleared my driveway and carport of leaves and clippings. Tjis saved me a HUGE chunk of time and money.

Great Service

This is a great service. It is very convenient to book using the app. The lawn professional communicates with you regularly with updates to service and eta, not to mention the cut looks great. I am very happy with this service.

What stands out with LawnStarter's service, and Brooke's team specifically, is how accommodating they are. I can tell when someone cares about me and their team. Brooke managed to give their team a day off for the holiday which could have resulted in a delay to my scheduled serviced. The job was completed on time and with attention to detail beyond expected. It's early in the relationship, but I'm ahead of where I would expect to be in terms of trust with LawnStarter and Brooke, and that's most important to me.

Scam
April 1, 2024

Service was not good didn't even trim the bushes nor give a quote. If you want my business why would you skip steps. Run from this company. Scam artists force you to pay 3 lawn services.

Our lawn needed to be mowed and edge and we also needed some bushes trimmed. John came out and got our yard looking neat again in just a few hours. It was simple to book and he did a great job. If you need lawn service, I would recommend this company.

Excellent service
March 30, 2024

With other lawn services, it was such a hassle to get them to show up on the days listed for my mowing. But not with Joe and company as they have shown up on the dates listed for my mow and did an excellent job! I'm really happy with them and I thank you for your punctuality and a job well done.
