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.

Edwin did a great job mowing my lawn and trimming my bushes. It was a mess before he did the work and beautiful afterwards. Thank you!

Its a scam. Once you are a customer they will not let you cancel with our hours upon hours of calls and frustration when you are put on hold and then they hang up on you before you get to talk to someone

They continue to charge you on the card credit after you have asked them to cancel service Horrible customer service and it is not their fault they are are doing what their money grabbing bosses tell them to do Neve start this service because they will keep charging your card long after you have cancelled from year to year

My lawn care specialist has taken great care of the property. Each time I have messaged him he promptly responds and shows up when he says he will. I have no complaints whatsoever with the job that Lawn Starter has done.

I've had my ups and downs with LawnStarter. But they were recently bought out and let me tell you what - TOTAL 180. I'm SO happy I stayed. I have a gorgeous lawn at a great rate and the service is nothing but wonderful. Seriously.

The guy didn't cut my treeline area. They come back and want high grass price. Really? I sent photos of his cut. Ok cancel my service. No deal.

Concerns
April 20, 2023

Scheduled for beginning of week, postponed for later, asked what day and I respond Thursday, Frank responds no problem, I take day off to be here for first time with company and manage dogs, company sends me an email they are coming Friday...meanwhile, grass is getting longer and longer and I have to manage messages via their app and regular email, by which I am unable to respond...just give me a phone number...instead I have to juggle two different messaging systems and it doesn't appear the people on either end talk to each other...this is frustrating
