BEWARE!!!

I hired A+ Lawn Mowing for fall yard clean-up after contacting several of their competitors. They assured me that they would complete the job prior to our Township's street pick-up date. They asked for 100% payment of $275.65 prior to arrival, which I did plus I added a generous tip. After rescheduling us three times, they finally sent one person to our property with a small leaf blower, no gas, no rake, no other tools other than his cell phone which he was on frequently calling for help (he said). In 5.5 hours of cell phone use they only blew one pile of leaves on the side of

This is the most horrible company I've ever dealt with. Terrible customer service. Every time they came by (without notice) they would leave our gate open and spray all the dog supplies we have in the backyard. I called numerous times and complained about this and was never given an apology or any attempt to make it right. Our yard is full of weeds despite numerous treatments.
Then they applied extra treatments like grub control that were not authorized. When I refused to pay for these they sent me to a collection agency.
Avoid this company at all costs.

The first mistake, filling out the form on Facebook to hire this company. We filled it out and paid in full for the service of maintaining the lawn. Thinking it was a reputable business was our 1st and 2ndmistake.

Wanted to share the experience of my first season with A+ Lawn and Landscape. The summary is that they broke my brand-new planter box on their first visit this spring and seven months later it's still not resolved.

1) They break the planter and say nothing to me. Accidents happen, maybe they didn't know they hit it, and I reach out to A+ for resolution. They offer to buy a replacement and we're all good.
2) Then months go by and they still haven't provided the replacement. They change their offer to some free lawn applications. Not what I wanted, but it's too late in

They are mowing or doing something to my neighbor's lawn right now. The sound, with all house windows shut is insanely loud. I have ear plugs in right now and it's still super loud. The poor kid trying to work the mower or whatever it is can barely push it and it is just SPEWING thick dark smoke. The kid is trying to lean way over each time it belches it out. I don't know if they are not taking care of the equipment, if Iowa just has really lax laws on air pollution, or both. But regardless, I put it on A+ to try to be more environmentally conscious and not give make their employees

We've used A Plus for a number of years. In the past they've been a bit hit or miss. Each time there was a problem, they'd correct it, but it was costly in terms of time and money for them.

In the past year or two they have really taken pains to improve their processes. This year our irrigation start up was perfect!! And they are Covid19 compliant. The communication around everything was excellent. My hat is off to Ethan.

The Spring application and some repair to the yard was done by Aaron's crew. Again, the work was perfect. They even repaired some spots not discussed

We have a lot of plants/trees and we were just in need of some weed control and fertilization. They were very helpful and did a great job. A plus lawn technician was very knowledgeable and took time to understand my concerns and personalized my service. Overall they are pretty affordable and are helpful with anything you may need.

Definitely recommend them to anyone needing anything done with their lawn. Their treatment to my yard made my lawn look beautiful all spring and summer. I will be definitely calling them up again when I need them. I was very content with the way they did their job.

A+ has a lot of nerve to not only not call us back to fairly discuss the bill they sent us for service we did not request but then hide behind their lack of service standards and send us to collections - mind you for a tree treatment we didn't ask them to come back to handle and yet because they serviced us one time they state that they are now our maintenance care provider? No no this is not how this works A+ more like F+

We had their service for 1 year and it was OK
On the contract with them we stated that we would contact them if needed the following year.
They automatically came out for the first application and applied it.
We called them and told them we did not want it this year unless we contacted them.
They appologized for the mistake
THEY NOW SENT IT TO COLLECTION AGENCY.
DO NOT USE THEM

This company provides NO customer service and doesn't complete work. Avoid! I had used them for my irrigation system start up and repairs but no more.

A+ has done a very good job with lawn care. We also have them aerate and re seed. I request a call before they come and they always comply.

I requested a certain area be a focus for weed removal and they did as asked.

When I decided to re-landscape they gave me a bid, but I chose another means.
