Anthony did an awesome job! The yard has been in bad shape for a while. We plan on renovating the house, and now the property doesn't look abandoned. I took a picture of a dear in the yard that was absolutely beautiful. Anthony, you have awesome customer service and do awesome work. Thank you Anthony and Lawnstarter. Angela

He did an outstanding job and went above and beyond what we asked for! The previous lawn care people we hired had absolutely butchered our yard and Bennetts Landscaping was able to come in and completely revamp our yard. It looks incredible and we could not be happier with his work!

Brian did a fantastic job with our lawn. At the last minute, our previous lawn team cancelled and Brian quickly took on our property to manage. I had a special request for a very low mow and trim. We have an extensive garden and fruit trees in the backyard, and Brian managed the lawn while respecting our food forest. I’d highly recommend him and my family and I have decided to replace our old lawn team with Brian! Thank you!

Davita W.'s turf maintenance service result
Brian did an excellent job on my yard. I trust that he will do a great job while I am away from home. I have rather a large yard and was surprised to see Brian was going to push mow it. I appreciate that he cut down all the weeds as I have not been able to do that process in the past. My yard looks better than it has in the past few mowing seasons. I know Brian will take care of my yard like his own. I will tip at the end of my contract. Thank you Brian.

I was very happy with Brian‘s work. He edged all of the yard and mowed it and made sure that all the fence lines were clear of vines and weeds. It looks very sharp and professional. I am looking forward to my next mow. Thank you for a job well done.

Thank you Anthony. I really do appreciate you. I can't see the lawn since I am still in the hospital but I am sure it looks great. Sorry I have not called you or texted you. I have lost my phone and this is my only means of communication. I have no clue where it could be. Hopefully it will show up soon. I cannot afford to buy another one.

Yard looks great really impressed with the work done. Paid good attention to detail and they cleaned up areas that I would've been unable to get to myself. Cleaned up all the sidewalks and cut all the ivy that was in my yard. Definitely appreciated their services and was very much pleased with the work that was done today. Thanks to their help I will now be able to take care of the rest of the yard work that still needs to get done .
