  Great company! They are very knowledgeable. We have used many companies in the past and our lawn has never looked better than it has since we've been using Contenders.

  New customers beware! Contenders came highly recommended, and the initial visit was great. This company is happy to sign you up for new service, and take your money up front, unfortunately for us it was all down hill from there. They did not show up for nearly 5 weeks after the contract initiated. They are, however, very well versed at providing a variety of excuses to gloss over your concerns, which in our case pertained to just showing up. After several calls and several excuses, they finally did show up, then squeezed in all of the services they missed into just a few weeks. They did not follow their proposed schedule, and when we called concerned about the scrambled order of lawn treatment applications (as you cannot apply weed control after the $1000 over-seeding service, or it will kill germination), the people in the office had no idea what the techs in the field were actually doing. Their verbal accounts and service reports did not align. I won’t bore you with the rest of the details, I can just say they had terrible customer service, yet claim to have bent over backwards for us! The owner was particularly short, and dismissive with our frustrations. Promises were broken every week for months. And at the end, they left us with thriving weeds, a fertilizer burn on the lawn, told us we were no longer customers, but still wanted their money of course after terminating the contract early, and threatened collections. Incredibly bold in this current economic climate. Bottom line is they are expensive, unorganized, and rude. They are another bloated company who struggles to find reliable help, yet are “expanding” so it becomes your problem. I usually do not write reviews, I just had to forewarn future potential customers what a few thousand dollars of service buys you with Contenders Lawn Service.

  Great and affordable service, very knowledgeable and professional crew. Second year servicing my mature pine trees that had very unnatural needle drop.I thought we are going to lose them but they are doing much better with a lot of new growth. They also treated boxwood mite and that hedge looks great now. Thank you Contenders!!
