Lawn Vets LLC

Way overpriced for the service!! I would stay clear of Lawn Vets LLC. He offers a military discount of 10%, but it didn't show up on my invoice. Read your contract completely and make sure you put every detail in it that you want. He lives by what is in the contract, so be sure all specifics are in it. He implies more when discussing the job, and then sends the quote. Once you agree he will only do what is in the contract. I wanted a small flower bed put in two areas, one with seven hostas, several sprinkler heads moved and adjusted in the front and back, a three foot fig tree replanted, small ares of the lawn patched, and pine straw put down around some existing shrubs. They charged me $3,225. They performed work for 4 hours the first day and then split for 5 days before coming back to finish the yard. They left the yard a mess and my backyard sprinkler system disabled. When I sent an email to the owner about the mess, he told me to water the plants and they would be back on Tuesday. I had to spend time cleaning up the mess, moving rocks around, and watering the new grass and plants by hand everyday. When I asked to be compensated ($200) off my bill for having to cleanup the mess to prevent further damage to my lawn, the owner absolutely refused and demanded full payment. We discussed the poor job he did, and the delay in time to complete the job, and he threatened to call the police and charge me with "theft through taking". This guy treats his fellow vets poorly, and is unreliable in my opinion. My guess is that he got kicked out of the military. The workmanship is poor to say the least. He also has a very poor attitude when he has to perform any work himself, so be careful.

I requested a quote from this company earlier this year. The owner expressed concern with being able to turn around in my driveway since it is a small private road. I assured him that other contractors park large vehicles along the main road with no issues and drive equipment down the private drive. He then AGREED TO DO THE WORK and sent me a quote. He told me on the phone he would be able to get to my house the following week. Towards the end of the week, I became concerned with what day his company planned on coming and called him. He then backtracked on the phone and said he did not say this but he wanted to come back out and take another look. And then just said he's not going to be able to do it. It's obviously a bad practice to send a quote out to a client and then not honor the quote. I would not recommend this company.
