Scotts Lawn Service

I hired Scott’s a few years ago and our lawn looks amazing! Joel and Jason are very knowledgeable and give us helpful hints to keep our lawn healthy and green. Every call we make to them is handled like they value our business. I highly recommend Scotts Lawn Service!!!

Was very disappointed ! Used for 3 years and came to put seed on my lawn in November when leaves were falling! Came 3 days before to fertilize when they could have done when seeded! Called and were very rude that I questioned to be charged for two services, when I only used them 4 – 6 times a year! Would ever recommend them!

I was **VERY** skeptical about hiring a «lawn service» like this, but since we were out of state and our tenants let our lawn die in man places, I was desperate to get it back to pristine condition asap. So I hired Joel and crew to work their magic – but being in Texas and not being able to SEE the results, I was still a skeptic. Joel emailed me pictures when I requested them and told me that it does not happen «overnight.» Well, he was right all the way around! We were in town last week and I must admit our lawn has never looked better! It’s dark green and lush! Don’t ecpect overnight miracles, but if you stick with it for at east four months, you will see substantial results! THANKS JOEL!

The Sacramento Area Scott’s Lawn Service has been providing lawn services at my property for the last couple of years. They service my property every other month (six times a year). During the most recent servicing rotation, I had lawn service in August 2014 and was due for my next lawn service in October 2014.
In September of 2014, a representative called from Scott’s Lawn Service, asking me if I would like reseeding done at my property for $ 82. I agreed to the service, provided that they skip the regular $ 41.00 service due in October. (In other words, I agreed to receive and pay for the $ 81 service in lieu of the regular $ 41 October lawn service, so that I would not wind up with a $ 123 total lawn service bill for the month of October.) The representative agreed to this concept over the phone.
On October 2, 2014, I received a $ 41 fertilization bill from Scott’s Lawn Service. When I received this bill, I believed that they were splitting the total $ 82 agreed-​to October lawn service into two, separate $ 41 services.
On October 8, 2014, I received another bill from Scott’s Lawn Service; however, this bill was for $ 82. It appeared that Scott’s Lawn Service proceeded with the regular, $ 41 October lawn service despite my request to refrain from the this service in October. Essentially, they performed a lawn service on my property which I did not approve, and they expected me to pay for this unapproved lawn service.
Since I did not have a written contract with this company (all services agreed to verbally over the phone), I feel like Scott’s Lawn Service has taken advantage of me, performing lawn services not approved by me, and essentially «extorting» money from me. I did speak to manager at the Sacramento Area office who stated that they failed to «put a stop» on my account as I had requested several weeks prior to the service. He also stated that «everyone makes mistakes». I do agree that people make mistakes, however, this company’s mistake was now costing me $ 41.00 which I did not agree to pay. I told him that they were fired.
Anyway, I did pay for both lawn service bills (the approved $ 82 bill and the unapproved $ 41 bill) so that this company would not ruin my excellent credit rating by sending an unpaid, unapproved $ 41 bill to collections.
I am concerned, however, that this Sacramento Area office may use this type of business practice (performing unapproved lawn services) to take money from other innocent, unsuspecting «customers», who are essentially «victims» at that point. I want Unilocal and its members to be aware of this issue. I would recommend that anyone wishing to do business with these people should do so ONLY under a written contract.

Excellent service from very friendly and knowledgeable technicians. Our lawn never looked so green, weed free and lush.

Horrible service.
Cancelled after one visit.
Beware, bogus referral to a sprinkler contractor. Crap work. Couple thousand dollars wasted. Should be reported to the Better Business Bureau among other agencies.

in short, 1 guy came out, said i had weed infestation in back yard (i agree) and signed up for 5 sessions to get the weeds all gone and grass in its place. come to find out the actual person who treated the yard only did a certain segment they deemed was the actual lawn, not the entire yard that we had discussed. i brought this to their attention and an appointment was made for the original guy to come back. he didnt keep the appointment and called me the day after to reschedule. we did and he never kept the next appointment and never called me back.
