Had high hopes for this company, but I just can’t recommend them anymore. After this week’s service, you can clearly see that our lawn was damaged by the tires of their machine. The marks are obvious and weren’t there before the treatment. Very disappointed with the lack of care.

Provider response

Mr. Whitby:<br>Your request for a lawn evaluation was received on 03/24/2026. We provided the evaluation the following day on 03/25/2026.<br>Your requested we provide Power Seeding, Lawn Maintainer Program, and Pelletized Lime services.<br>It was explained to you that for the Power Seeding to be successful in the Spring, you must water the lawn per our recommendations.<br>Your lawn was Power Seeded on April 06 and we left written watering and mowing instructions for you to follow.<br>On April 17, we emailed watering instructions to all customers due to the drought conditions that have existed since August 2025. A second email was sent at the end of May.<br>We provided Step 4 of the Lawn Maintainer Program on Friday, June 05. By email, you cancelled service on Monday, June 08 at 7:47am with no indication there were any concerns with the lawn; in fact, you wished us well and thanked us for our services.<br>On Thursday, June 11 at 7:59pm you emailed our office with pictures and at 8:20pm you gave us a 1-star review. <br>Tire marks from lawn equipment will be more apparent on a heat- and drought-stressed lawn as your pictures clearly indicate. <br>On Thursday evening, June 11, was the region's first heavy rainfall; the second was the next day, Friday, in the afternoon and evening.<br>We took pictures of your lawn on Monday, June 15 and there was definite improvement with the water from rainfall. Regretfully, it is an impossibility to attach our photos to this reply of your review. <br>A taller mowing height as we recommended, along with much needed water, will also enhance your lawn.<br>Had you given us the opportunity, we would have explained how the lawn will improve and alleviated your concern.

We've been with Lawn Doctor of Stafford for years. They have truly helped us turn our dying lawn around to a healthy green lawn. They're great to work with and they know their business and they care.

First season with Lawn Doctor after giving Virginia Green and True Green a try. Hands down Lawn Doctor has kept up with my high standards of service and keeping my property weed free. Keep up the good work!

Provider response

Thank you, Mr. Young. We appreciate your review and will work diligently to maintain your standards.

I would give them a zero if I could. My grass was treated with broadleaf weed control. Now the lawn is brown and looks as if it was overly treated in spots ($126.00 later). My flower was burnt as well as seen in the picture. If I had known my lawn would turn brown I would have left it green with the weeds in it. Now I’m being told that my lawn must be reseeded in the Fall. I wanted a green lawn this summer. Not the Summer of 2026 or the Summer of 2027.

Provider response

Apparently a website issue prevented us from seeing this review previously but now that we have, we are happy to reply.<br>Weeds, which made up most of your yard, were treated with weed control. It is a fact that weeds will turn brown when treated properly with weed control; this is part of the process of ridding a yard of weeds.<br>It is evident we achieved good results with the weed control in just one application.<br>There was very little grass in the yard; what grass was there was unaffected by weed control but benefitted from the nutrients and pelletized lime applied.<br>As you were made aware from the professional lawn evaluation provided prior to your request for us to start treating the yard, your yard (we couldn't quite call it a "lawn" at that time but that is what it would have become with the care we recommended to you) contained heavy weeds and needed Power Seeding at the appropriate time. That is the information provided to you right from the beginning.<br>On a Monday morning following the weed control application, you contacted our office with a concern about brown spots (again, it was weeds reacting to the weed control applied) and your lawn was inspected that same day by the Operations Manager; he contacted by telephone before the close of business that very same day.<br>The Operations Manager proposed he go over the yard with you personally to answer any questions.<br>We received no response from you other than you writing this review stating dissatisfaction with a weed application doing its job.<br>We are aware that some time has transpired, but if you have interest in a beautiful, healthy Lawn*Doctor lawn, we will be happy to start creating one for you!

Only use this company if you want thick, lush grass! Granular fertilization, weed control and grub control all discretely maintained. Always responsive if there is a concern. The combination of these treatments and effective watering makes for a great result.

Provider response

Eddie Kesler, We are so grateful for your kind words. Our team takes pride in serving you and the Fredericksburg community with quality _ and great customer service!

Hi, I don’t want to renew my next year lawn services. Don’t charge from my account anymore for next year services. Very disappointed with service. Messed up my front yard lawn and back yard lawn . There is a lots of patches due to wrong amount of spreading or bad product. So please cancel my next year service. Not recommended 👎

Provider response

Hello again!<br>You called our office again today asking that we resume service for your lawn.<br>However, we consistently provided the appropriate recommendations and instructions for proper watering and mowing habits necessary for your lawn to thrive.<br>Bare patches will occur when the lawn is allowed to die from lack of water and being cut too short. On the several visits we made to inspect your lawn after hearing from you with your concern, the soil was so dry it was actually cracked.<br>You have contacted our office many times to request resumption of our professional and dependable lawn care services, but we have advised that without the commitment to water and mow the lawn properly, there is no point in spending any money on lawn care from any company!<br>Our goal is for every customer to have a beautiful and healthy lawn and we will always provide the necessary recommendations for that goal to be achieved.

The service was good and timely. I had two major issue for not renewing my contract, which was the weeds in my yard that your company was able to get rid of. I never had that issue with my previous lawn care. Lastly, I didn’t realize aeration was an additional cost, which was the final reason for leaving.

Provider response

We sincerely regret losing you as our customer due to the service not providing all the results you anticipated.<br>There are instances when a lawn requires more help than our customer enables us to provide.<br>The starting condition of a lawn and the time we are allowed will also affect what we are able to achieve.<br>We are confident that taking advantage of the recommendations we made would have resulted in your complete satisfaction by having a beautiful, healthy Lawn*Doctor lawn.<br>Lastly, we provided written confirmation to you of the services you requested, and pricing for each, so it was made clear that aeration was not included in what you chose.<br>Again, we regret losing you as our customer. Please do not hesitate to contact us at any time you may wish to take advantage of our recommendations; we will be very pleased to hear from you.<br>Thank you.<br>

This is very good company, with caring employees. I had used them for over fifteen years in Fairfax, but then I moved to Gainesville. Here I had an opportunity to use them for my Tree and Shrub care service, so I retained them again. For over a year, they are providing very professional service. I recommend them highly.

Provider response

We are so glad you're in our "neighborhood" now and we have the opportunity to serve you!<br>Thank you for the 5 Stars, we will continue to work hard to provide you with the high level of service required to sustain that rating.<br>Please never hesitate to contact us with questions or comments, we are always at your service.<br>Again, many thanks from all of us!

Lawn Doctor of Stafford is GREAT!! They treated our lawn all during this past growing season, and the lawn was really improved. This is such a good company; they are responsive to requests, came exactly when they promised, and their fees are reasonable. They explain the nature of the treatments they are providing, and offer a chance to opt out of treatments not needed. I was especially impressed when, after feeling they had missed a treatment I had requested, was told by the young lady on the phone that she had made the error and had not put the order through. She was very apologetic. That kind of honesty and responsibility is rare in today's world! We will continue to use Lawn Doctor of Stafford, because we feel we can trust them.

Provider response

Thank you for your 5 Star review! Your compliments touched on many aspects of our business on which we work hard to excel.<br>We plan on delighting you and improving your lawn for many seasons to come through excellent service provided by our State Certified Lawn Care Technicians and our office staff, all of whom will always be very happy to assist in all ways possible.<br>Thank you again!

We had our lawn done two years ago after removing over 30 trees from our property. I knew we needed help maintaining all the work done. I found lawn doctor after speaking with several other companies and they made the best first impression with me by giving a great plan for keeping the grass healthy as well as fair pricing. We now even use them for our leaf removals! I’m so thankful we found them!!

Provider response

We are also very thankful you found us! We enjoy taking care of your property and having you as our customer, it's been a delight.<br>We will always strive to keep you completely happy with the work we do.<br>Thank you for expressing your satisfaction and confidence in our services with 5 Stars!
