  Been using John for over 5 years and have been very satisfied with his guys. Always reliable. I’ve used other companies before but I think he’s the best.

  Average. The good: Affordable Price (this is the biggie). Shows up. Can cancel cuts on weeks you want to skip, say if its very dry out, if you give enough notice. Can mow every other week if you want. The bad: Uneven mowing. Incomplete edging / weed-whacking. Run over signs and stuff on the lawn and just leave the mess everywhere. Can only pay by check, no online payment portal. Fall cleanups costly. I only keep them around because so far, every other place I've called charges a higher price per cut. The price is the only reason I haven't switched.

  Hey John the ordinance in Hazlet says commercial landscaping equipment must be silenced by 6pm stop sending your guys at 8pm when people are trying to relax. Next time I’ll file a formal complaint. Believe that

  I’m quite disappointed with the service provided by John McEvoy Lawn Maintenance. While they did a decent job on the front lawn—mowing, trimming, and edging—the back yard was left in a terrible state. There are grass clippings everywhere, large patches of the lawn were left completely untouched, and the overall quality was lacking. Additionally, when my fiancé requested that they trim the weeds along the fence line, they refused, claiming it required a trimmer. This was frustrating because they had used a trimmer on the front yard to get around the fire hydrant at the curb and around the perimeter of the house. Ultimately, they created more work than they alleviated as I cannot go over any portion of the lawn with my own mower because the amount of clippings left behind immediately clogs and stalls the lawn mower. So now I have to rake the debris from the entire yard before work can be done. Unfortunately, the issues with the back yard overshadowed any positive aspects of their work. I would not recommend this company based on our experience.

  Zero stars if I could. For the 2 months that I had the service I had to call and make sure that the crew was going to come to mow. Did this 3 times in a row. AND had to call multiple times to get a call back. The first time, John said I thought "you cancelled" , I didn't. The second time I called was told they would be there on Tuesday, They didn't show up,  called again and they finally came on Wednesday. The third time Was Monday June 1st called again, John made a big deal about me calling him on his personal line. I told him no one responded to me when I called on the business line. His crew didn't show until Tuesday close to 7pm. AND They damaged the gate to my fence. I received his bill today, that always seems to show up on time though... Also my father uses John McEvoy at his house. One time about 2 years ago his crew damaged the front glass storm door. Took John 2 months  to acknowledge and replace it. There are better lawn services out there that actually care about their customers, contact them instead.
