Great company to work for with the exception that a couple crew members lie on you and they do not allow you to build your skills their way though you get better. I worked roughly with steel toe boots that slowed me down abit but I put effort in it as a new employee, nonetheless, even picked up extra task yesterday that was not even in our split packet but they .... After warning me in the morning of less personal phone time, as I did ( meaning I stopped ), they used that excuse to excuse me from working further later that evening

Critical: Professionalism, Quality, Responsiveness, Value
This is a very unprofessional and unethical company. They damaged my property and in turn refused to help/compensate. They are very unprofessional and unethical in their dealing. I would have given negative stars if I could. I absolutely would caution everyone to stay away from them.

I inherited Barr from the previous homeowner. When the irrigation system was opened they made sure there was water flowing and that was about it. Heads were problematic, aimed wrong, leaking. Later the system shorted out and I had to call them back 3 times to get it right. Then later a valve sprung a leak and was continuously running. My technician was nice but he can barely sit or kneel and this compromises his work.
I had multiple bare areas in my lawn, two large ones were for a swing set that was removed. Barr agreed to seed the areas. They did this one week AFTER they applied pre-emergent

Called them in March. Paid deposit, have not been scheduled in October. Asked for a refund and have not received it. I consider this company a scam, stay as far away as possible from them.
I can't give less than a 1 star review.

Beware...paid over $8k last Fall and they were not able to finish the job. We agreed they would finish in Spring. But I am still waiting on my tree from last Fall landscaping project and my job to be finished. I have been promised each week for past few weeks. and they have NEVER tried to make contact with me. Not sure WHY I would have to call weekly and inquire. They just say I will be out to finish next week, even said they would be out the following day. They should have contacted us and updated us. This is a terrible way to do business. UNPROFESSIONAL. But they were paid in full

Wanted some landscaping done and some yard clean up. I said what can you do for $1,000.00. Quote later was for $1,600.00 and i said i would work it out. Only flowers i would get would b 3 rose bushes. Thought about it but still wasn't sure. Anyway i was sure the person i talked didn't want to do it. Now i know he didn't as he mailed me a quote for over $1,900.00. Called some other place and got the job done for less than $1,000.00 which included a charge for mowing my lawn.

Update 7/8/19: Came out as promised and the work was excellent. So 5 stars for the work but deduct 1 star for the lack of communication. We totally understand that the weather put everything behind schedule. It was just the lack of communication when we were told they would be coming out and then didn't come or contact us to let us know when the new time they would be coming out was. We always had to follow up with them. Nonetheless, the yard looks amazing and better than I imagined in my head so very happy with the results!
Original 7/2/19: They emailed us an said they were coming out never showed

Exceptional professionalism with attention to detail - these folks respond diligently & are highly capable. I am new to this area and had no idea which lawn care service would deliver the best results. I chose to work with a local family owned service as I prefer to support local business owners & entrepreneurs. My yard was in sad shape as we had just purchased a home in Germantown Hills that needed much love & care - it now looks like a golf-course. Highly recommended!

I want to thank your personnel for going that extra step that makes Barr Landscaping the leader in their field. We live in a large apartment complex where Barr maintains the grounds. The previous service did a very poor job and Barr has gone above and beyond the average lawn service company. We have a ground level deck and when mowing and trimming, debris is thrown upon the deck. The Barr person came back without being asked and blew all the dirt and debris off our deck. It may be a minor detail but it sure made our day and shows how Barr pays attention to the details.
Job well done. Please thank

When we moved into our new home 1 1/2 ago we had nothing but weeds. Barr has been able to get our lawn looking amazing. Any issues we've ever had questions about they were quick to respond and have solutions! Highly recommend!
