This review is for customer service not actual service because it turned out when I called about winterizing, that I live too far from them to be a client. But I think his name was Rusty or Russ (I'm sorry, I forgot), he took my name and number and offered to call back with referrals for companies that cover my area. He called back 10 minutes later with two referrals. It was so professional and courteous of him to take time to help out someone who's not his own customer that I have to give him props here in a review. Thank you!

This was, I think, roughly two years ago but I'm shopping for a new lawn care service and saw this company so thought I owed a review. I was pleased enough with their service until they did a "fall lawn rejuvenation service", or at least I think that's what they called it. Their business practice was to send a letter in the mail stating that a non-reply was implied consent to proceed with the service (that's right, if they don't hear anything.they assume your consent). Well, if I received this letter, I must have assumed it was junk mail because I never read it.
They did the treatment, which I assumed was part of my contract, but then I received a $350 (if memory serves correct) bill. I objected, and they said they would remove from my bill. I then receive a bill for 1/2. I ultimately paid and terminated my contract because this whole "implied consent if we don't hear anything" is SUCH an intentionally unethical business practice that I decided I couldn't do business with this company.

Complete Lawn put in a sprinkler system about 15 or more years ago. Rusty one of the owners designed the system. He was from Arlington and went to Yorktown HS the same time I went to WL HS. They have been maintaining the system over the years. I have found everyone to be professional, reasonable in price. Very happy and would recommend this company.

As a long time customer of Complete Lawn Service, I cannot say enough times how satisfied I am with the quality of their work. My family first started using CLS in the 1980's (that sounds so last Century.). I have been using them at my house since 1994. They took what was mostly crab grass, weeds and moss and turned my yard into the envy of the neighborhood. People have actually stopped their cars to ask what we do to have such a wonderful lawn.
Once we had CLS install the sprinkler system, our lawn and beds have continued to flourish without me having to get up at dawn to water. I have recommended CLS throughout our neighborhood and I know they have installed at least two other sprinkler systems, maintain at least another two they didn't install, and handle the yard maintenance for at least four other families. I also use CLS on properties I manage.
Their entire staff is courteous and knowledgeable, and if needed, you can speak with the Owner should there be a problem. Complete Lawn Service is a locally owned and operated family business that knows the meaning of customer service and loyalty. They are definitely worth the call!

I've used complete lawn since I purchased my house 20 years ago! The previous owner did and the lawn looked so good we kept the service. This past year I had them do lawn cutting and leaf removal in addition to the 7 visit lawn care program. Very good company.
