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.

Great lawn service at a affordable price. I would recommend Lawn Starter to my relatives, friends and neighbors!
Lawnstarter has been the finest lawn service I've used since I began trying many different property maintenance business. They have consistently did excellent work time after time.
I would recommend them to everyone
Hell Paul, thank you for your review. We are happy to have you among our customers and hope you keep on enjoying your lawn mowing services!
It seems like you might have chosen the wrong number of stars when evaluating LawnStarter. If that is the case, would you mind editing your rating to 4 or 5 stars, so that the correct rating shows? It would help much. Thank you, Paul!

Very pleased with Joshua and his partner. Joshua's observations about lawn condition prompted me to check my sprinkler system and he was spot on identifying the timers were set too short for a couple zones.
On behalf of all of us at LawnStarter, I would like to thank you for sharing this great review about our services! We are thrilled that you enjoyed your experience, Jody.
Travis did a great job on the mowing and edging. Good communication and our yard looked wonderful when completed.
Hello Summer, glad to hear from you how happy our service turned out.
Awesome job! The grass was cute well. The edge-up was good. I was satisfied with the cut grass blown off the driveway and the street back into the grass. I recommend this crew.
Thank you so much for such a great review, Rhonda! We are happy to hear you liked your first service. The next ones will be just as great!

We are so grateful for your review, Mon! Thanks for sharing your rating with us and the community.
I have been using Lawnstarter for several months and I'm completely satisfied with their service. If you have any issues they are resolved in a timely manner. For me, communication and affordable prices are important and this company has both. Chris handles my lawn care and does a phenomenal job every time. His work ethic exceeds other lawn care providers I have used in the past. If inclement weather is on the horizon, he lets me know ahead of time if he has to reschedule. I am definitely happy that I made the decision to call Lawnstarter!
Thank you so much for the time to share your experience at LawnStarter, Alexis. We take pride in knowing our customers are happy with their lawn mowing experience.
He doesn't show up at the agreement date and I have to reach out to find out if he's coming and when. My yard looks amazing whenever he's done

I couldn't be more impressed with the work Donte does on my lawn. He is detail-oriented, reliable, and he takes care of everything. Thank you so much, Donte!
It is delightful to hear such positive words and it’s always a pleasure to serve you, Benjamin!
I use the LawnStarter app for my primary residence. It has been easy way to communicate desired services with my lawn crew. I can adjust service due to weather or seasonal changes. I can book additional services as needed, such as mulching. The app and my assigned lawn crew communicate directly through the app of the upcoming schedule and my booked services.
I also use LawnStarter for my single-family home rental properties. I add the additional properties to my profile and just turn on and off the service as needed for those properties. This has solved a once frustrating problem. The flexibility allows me to start and stop weekly service for a short period when a house is in transition from a move-out and I need to pick up the services temporarily. I also advise my tenants of the app when they ask for references upon move-in. I have used the app to book extra annual maintenance of beds and trees that the tenants aren't responsible to keep my properties maintained.
Hello! Thank you for your review, Jennifer Lee! We are very happy to hear that you are satisfied with the service and are spreading the word about it. We appreciate your feedback and we look forward to serving your lawn for many more years to come!
Awful. The "pro" we matched with said they would come Thursday. Didn't show. I messaged him and asked if he would come Friday. He said he would be here first thing in the morning. Didn't show. I messaged at noon to see if he would come at all. He said he would and he had several jobs in our area. At 3pm I get a message from LawnStarter stating our "pro" canceled the job and couldn't service us anymore but they would be getting us a new crew to service us. I have no faith they could find someone at 3pm on a Friday to service us that day. Canceled our request. No use dealing with people who can't do what they say they're going to do.
Thank you for bringing this matter to our attention, Jeremy. I’m very sorry we failed to meet your expectations. I would appreciate another chance to earn your business. Please email me at [email protected] with LSREVIEWS as the subject of your email to discuss our available solutions for your concern, and we aim to make it right. - Janice, Experience Specialist at LawnStarter

Answer: This company is a scam, they get your credit card and charge for "extra services you did not request.
Answer: I have spent nearly $200 and my yard still looks like trash. Find someone else to do your yard. These people charge for work they never complete!
Answer: LawnStarter.com does not employ lawn guys. They use contractors that might be in the area and willing to do the work. Neither are responsible for property damages like sprinklers, shattered windows, etc.
