Took my money and ran. Poor work and never came back to take care of the bad job he did the first go. Expensive as well. Should never have trusted.

Excellent lawn service that happens very fast. The account managers are also very kind and easy to work with. I'm not going back to mowing on my own.

Bears Landscaping is the ONLY call you need to make! We contacted 7 , YES SEVEN, companies to give us a quote for a water issue in our driveway. Out of those 7 only 2 actually came out and none of them ever gave us a formal quote. Finally we were told to reach out to Bears Landscaping. I wish we had done that from the start!!
Ray came out within days of us calling , had a quote in our hand (much less than we were expecting) , and had us on the schedule. WOW!
His team who did the work were complete professionals and got the job done quickly, clean, and most importantly fixed the issue. Ray was extremely detailed in letting us know what the issues found were, what they did to fix it, and what we could do in the future if we felt it necessary. I have learned my lesson and Bears Landscaping will always be my first and only call going forward,
