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

We live in Urbandale. We had maintenance contract with A+. After aerating several months back, A+ personnel damaged our iron fence gate. The management at A+ assured us they would pay for damage. We had damage repaired promptly and professionally by Central Fence, they in turn sent invoice to A+. It is now December. After numerous phone calls to A+ and being lied to, we paid Central Fence for the repair. A+ then had the gall to invoice us on our account and be paid for another maintenance service. NEVER AGAIN will we use A+. Dan and Dawn Henderson

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.

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 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.

Hired A+ to help tame some weeds in a yard which hadn't had any TLC from the previous owner. There were all kinds of weeds, and they were very comfortable. It was time to shake up their comfort level. Had a visit and got a quote and they were off to the races.
The problems started almost immediately. While the first application went fine, the future ones caused some question marks. Instead of spraying for weeds, they just fertilized. I was a little perplexed. Being home in the afternoon, I saw the whole thing. The invoice charged me for weed spraying. So I called and had someone

We hired A+ Lawn Service to do our weed and feed this summer and to handle our irrigation service. The good news is that we had a lot of weeds. The bad news is that they were very unresponsive in taking care of our irrigation system. We paid to have the winterize the irrigation system in October. But when mowing in October, I noticed the covers were left off our the in-ground valve boxes. It caused me to investigate further - did they fully drain our irrigation system. I found that they had missed at least part of it (our back yard system to the garden) - maybe more. It took only three phone

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+

Depends whether they are under adult supervision. The managers talk a great game, talk talk, talk, very expert at the sales and soothing talk. Our neighborhood signed them for snow and grass and lawn/bush trimming.
OK on the trimming, very timely with the snow removal, but damage happens. If you have residential grass, expect to get it scalped and dug out regularly and repeatedly, even if you talk to them multiple times, talk to the guys on site multiple times, even if you talk to the management multiple times. Those big husky tires and heavy machines that do zero turns and quick reverses

I think a true test of good customer service comes when something unfortunate happens, and the company then has only one chance to make it right, and thats what happened here. They didn't mow my side yard at first. Why? I don't know, maybe there was a misunderstanding or something on my yard, but I just let them know about it and they treated it like it was a VERY big deal, very apologetic and they made it right. That is all you can really ask for.

Been a customer for years, scheduled a sprinkler start up service last fall with shutdown. They did not show up. I called, they said I didn't "confirm" so they canceled it (I was never notified) and I rescheduled for tonight, 4-6, again no call no show. I called the main number and got their answering service, they said they paged the technician. No call, no show. I called back at 7 pm, same routine.

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

Did a great job on my first mow, although it took a bit of time between the contract and the first mow, plus a follow-up call to start it, when they did do it, you could tell they took the time to mow and did the things that we cared about and had talked about with the rep prior to start. In addition, was surprised when a few days later they did the first lawn treatment. Much better than our old lawn service. Thanks A+
