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.

I had the pleasure of meeting a gentleman by the name Aaron Palmer. A certified professional that represented LawnStarter!
This young man was in contact we me before during and after the completion of the service.
I found him to be kind, courteous, and professional. 5 star rating across the Board!
Thank You

Wonderful Company
May 31, 2024

I purchased my first house and wanted to find a reliable company to maintain my yard for me. LawnStarter has been amazing, my yard looks great, they always show up on time and work efficiently. Would 100% recommend to my friends and family.

Andrew of Lawn Starter did a great job on a badly overgrown lawn. Our previous service stopped coming and I was stuck with three weeks of growth. Andrew came out and did a fantastic job making the lawn look great.

My Pro was prompt and did a great job. But the company doubled the price after the service was complete. My grass was under 9 inches and the photos taken by the Pro confirm confirm it. My rating would change if my dispute is resolved.

Not consistent
May 30, 2024

There pros never come on time or when you're scheduled. I don't recommend. I've had every service rescheduled and they say due to weather but that's not true.

I started using LawnStarter, an online platform for lawn care. It was easy to schedule and they arrived on time and did an excellent job. They're offering a $19 mow deal on your first service.

Caleb the Conqueror!
May 29, 2024

Caleb did an awesome job cutting my lawn(which wasn't an easy task since it hasn't been cut in several months.) I appreciated the communication that was maintained through out the process, keeping me informed when my service was scheduled, what was done and when the task was completed. If you are in need of yard services that is reliable and consistent, give them a call. You won't be disappointed!

Sachariel did a phenomenal job with my first lawn service with Lawn Starter. I was nervous bc the reviews seemed so mixed on thumbtack. I'm so glad my experience was what it was. He was sooooo nice and did a phenomenal job. My kids accidentally let our dogs out and Sachariel was just as happy to greet them as they were him! Lol. I hope to have him again!
