I just had my lawn aerated and over seeded today, and Dustin did a great job! Dustin is very knowledgeable, and he took the time to tell me what he would be doing to an area of the yard that couldn’t be reached with the aerator. He gave me post application instructions and did a great job blowing off the drive and sidewalk be fore he left. I recommend Lawn Doctor to everyone. They have an experienced staff and stand behind their work. Thanks Dustin & thanks Lawn Doctor!

Lawn Doctor has turned our weedy yard to a nice green lawn within the first year. They spot treat for any reoccurring weeds during applications. The saved our lawn by noticing sod web worms that were killing our lawn. Definitely recommend their services.
Price assessment: Reasonable price
Response from the owner · a month ago
Tim, thank you so much! It’s been great watching your Wadsworth lawn transform over the past two seasons. Catching problems like sod webworms early and staying on top of those stubborn weeds can make such a difference. We really appreciate your trust in our team and your recommendation!

Very please with how lush my lawn turned out this year. My lawn developed a fungus early spring. My lawn doctor tech worked with me to not only stop the fungus from spreading, but also regrow the damaged spots. I am more than please with my tech and the time he took to make sure my lawn recovered. I would recommend their service, highly.
Price assessment: Reasonable price
Response from the owner · a month ago
This is a picture perfect lawn. We're here and watching for fungus always. NE Ohio gets its fair share, but the key is to go into action with the right tools. Thank you for this review!

Great company!! Communicates very well!! Very friendly staff and more than professional.
Price assessment: Reasonable price
Response from the owner · 4 months ago
Debra, thank you so much for sharing this! I had to laugh at the rain comment—we'd certainly be popular in Northeast Ohio if we could control the weather. 😊 I'm so glad everything worked out despite the fence project. Finding a way to make things work for our customers is what it's all about, and I appreciate you recognizing that. Thank you for trusting Lawn Doctor with your lawn care, and for the kind words about our team!
