  I would like to thank Karl B. For a through job. He was on time , respectful, and communicated to me all he did and covered. The mosquito shield service is great, and courtesy reapply is a welcomed service when needed.

  I've had TruGreen lawncare for 18 months. The company and the technicians are very easy to work with. I have no problem recommending this company.

  I am extremely disappointed with TruGreen in Schoolcraft. Their technician sprayed herbicide all over my beautiful hydrangeas, clematis, roses, and other perennials, causing extensive damage to plants I had spent years growing and caring for. TruGreen showed very little concern about what happened. I was simply told that the plants “will grow back,” even though some may never return to their previous condition. The compensation they provided amounted to pennies on the dollar compared with the value of the damaged plants, the years invested in them, and what it will cost to replace them. The lack of care, accountability, and fair compensation afterward is unacceptable. Based on how TruGreen handled the damage they caused, I never recommend them.

  My normal Service Tech, Jason, is great. However, after installing and maintaining my large lawn myself for the first 14 years with excellent success, It’s unfortunate to say TruGreen’s professional service is not producing the same thick, plush, weed free, green lawn I once had. I do appreciate I received a call yesterday and TruGreen is supposed to be contacting me to send a lawn professional to look into my current lawn condition further. I’m hoping the root cause can be determined for my problem with significant patches of dead brown grass immediately next to plush green patches of grass, a recent variety of “farm grasses,” quack grass, and nut sedge throughout the lawn can be identified and addressed. I have traditionally had excellent success keeping the lawn free from unwanted grasses using MSMA or Quinchloroc at the first sign of any of these grasses or clover. I’m told TruGreen doesn’t really have a specific product available to treat these grasses. My hope is TruGreen will perform the necessary thorough inspection and soil sampling to help determine the root cause of these problems and develop an appropriate custom lawn care plan and schedule to bring my lawn back to the condition it has historically been in. Please don’t hesitate to contact me if you have any further questions. 04/23/24 Update - Unfortunately I feel it’s appropriate to drop my rating from three stars to two. My rationale is as follow: After a number of chats, emails, and phone calls to TruGreen, they did agree to send a Specialist to my property August 3, 2023. I shared my core aeration, mowing, thatching, and watering practices to which Rich responded “it sounds like you’re doing everything right.” He also commented on the high quality Kentucky Bluegrass I had selected, noting he doesn’t often see such a high quality turf. However, after pulling soil samples, I never received a response with the results. Therefore a few weeks ago I began calling TruGreen to ask about the soil sample results and a plan for my lawn issues. They had no record of the soil samples or results. They agreed to send another Specialist, Nate, to my home to perform another assessment. Nate was great! We walked the property and he allowed me to point out the many areas of invasive grasses and weeds the thinning turf was allowing into the lawn. He also immediately commented on the spotty, lumpy, inconsistent lawn condition. After some assessment, Nate commented on the condition of the blades of grass, pointing out the light green color, and brown and black spots. His suspicion is the cause is either a fungus problem, and/or potentially low phosphorus levels in the soil. New soil samples were gathered, and I’m looking forward to the results in 4-6 weeks. What I’ve continued to learn is, while TruGreen advertises “specialized lawn care plans,” “We offer a full lawn care plan that will not only help mitigate your specific weed problems, but also promote a thick lawn to fill in where weeds once were, minimizing future issues,” “we use high-quality products for efficiency and effectiveness. Our tailored solutions can meet the needs of your lawn,” and “Healthy Lawn Guarantee - TruGreen will gladly visit your property as often as needed to make any necessary adjustments and to ensure your satisfaction,” (see attached photo from which these quotes were taken), the results in my lawn do NOT demonstrate their applications and product selections are “tailored” to my lawn’s specific needs. TrueGreen’s available product selections are quite limited. While I’m a strong believer in minimizing the use of chemical applications, using the select chemicals I have purchased over the counter and used effectively myself in the past to creat and maintain the thick, plush lawn that naturally snuffs out weeds and disease, and reduces the need for additional chemicals, I continue to be told, TrueGreen Specialists don’t have access to the materials. Unfortunately this continues to result in many lawn issues unaddressed, regardless of their guarantee.

  Review Title: Poor Service, Lawn Damage after fertilizer spill – Portage, MI Review: Extremely disappointed with TruGreen's service in Portage, MI. My lawn’s color is consistently poor, and it was severely damaged after a fertilizer spill. I was told a work order would be opened, but nothing happened until I followed up myself. I was told a senior technician would come out to fix the issue, but the follow-up was minimal. The topsoil added to the damaged area was filled with wood chips and stones—not appropriate for reseeding. The burnt grass remains, and the damaged area still looks terrible. In addition, there are still some weeds and invasive grass present despite regular treatments. The weed control has not been fully effective, and I haven’t received any real solution. Very disappointed with the overall service and lack of accountability from the local TruGreen team.
