Great local lawn and yard maintenance company. They provided good personal service and stood by their work.

The service offered by these guys is excellent. They are very responsive and cater the plan to your needs with no pushy up selling. They are great with communication and do good work without a long waiting period. I highly recommend them if you are looking for a reasonable lawn service! read more

I dont write many reviews so when I do the service is either really good or really bad. this is really good. Ive been through about 5 landscapers in the past 10 years. i wish i would have found these guys when i first moved in. their prices are fair, their work is fantastic, they respond in a timely manner, and their billing/payment is simple and clear. Im so happy with their work that I purchased their annual maintenance package so I literally dont have to do any yard work this year. read more

A little pricey but the front of my house is looking nice and clean. Once I explained what I wanted, it took no time to book the appointment and get the work done. Turnaround time was about 2 days! read more

I mentioned before, the quality of the job was fine. After explaining that I wasn't looking for a refund or discount on work completed, but was actually inquiring about a recent credit card charge that was incorrect, David explained that there had been some miscommunication and we sorted things out. I was impressed with Dave's concern over the reputation of his company and his commitment to being a stand-up guy. read more

Outstanding service and great people to work with. Whenever i have a question or problem they are very responsive and quick to make sure that I'm happy. They have an automated system that sends emails prior to any service dates so I can be prepped for their arrival (have dog toys picked up) and make any adjustments necessary. The work they do is superb and a great value. read more

For a spring cleanup this year, I reached out to several different companies for quotes. I had one take over two weeks to even schedule a site visit to begin the process of providing me a quote. Three others didn't even get back to me after I emailed and left messages with their scheduling team(s). A Cut Above had a quote emailed to me within an hour of my request, came out for a site visit a few days later, and had me on the schedule for my spring cleanup within a week and a half. Their crew did a fantastic job and A Cut Above kept me looped in with email updates when my job was dispatched, etc. Highly recommend this company, especially after experiencing nothing but headaches this spring with other landscaping companies! read more

We've had A Cut Above do two projects for us - a few years ago at our old house we had them clear out a great deal of brush and dig a bunch of rocks out of the ground which they then lined the yard with. They brought in some mulch for the back area and then managed to somehow get grass to grow in the closer area where they had previously been a mass of rocks and brush. They used some of the rocks to create a really nice firepit. The value for what we got was phenomenal. More recently, at our new house, they designed a patio for us that is pretty freakin' awesome. They included lights inside it and a really nice firepit with seating. The whole thing is way nicer than I could have ever expected. And for what we got an incredible value (we got quotes from some other guys who wanted to charge a lot more to do a lot less). The workers that came out for both projects were great guys and we couldn't be happier with the final product. read more

I was on a tight schedule. A Cut Above came as promised and did a great job. I intend to use them for all my lawn services.

Absolute 5 Star Company for all your landscaping needs. The company is very well rounded in all aspects from whatever you are looking to get done. Whether your looking to get a patio, walkway, yard cleanup, fertilization, aeration, overseeding, new install landscape they are always there for you. Dave is always quick to respond to any questions that you may have along the way. I would highly recommend giving them a try! I can assure you that you will not be disappointed with the end results. read more

We switched from our previous service, which was tough, because we had been with them for many many years. When that service changed ownership, we weren't happy with some inconsistencies in communication, so we did a very deep research dive, and chose A Cut Above for their responsiveness and on-line customer portal. They are really bending over backwards to ensure a positive customer experience. Since we are new customers, we are offering 4 stars, until we go through more warm season services, but so far, so good! We're happy to be on-board! read more

I've been using A Cut Above for three years now and they are awesome. For the first two years, I did only a turf and aeration/overseeding package. Then, the company changed it's policy and only offered that package if you had a mowing package as well. This is fair since the philosophy behind it is that if people see an A Cut Above truck in front of a house, the owner, Dave, wants to make sure that lawn reflects his high standards. Homeowners mowing habits can affect a lawn greatly (frequency, height, etc.), so doing the turf package is only half the story. I didn't fault Dave for wanting to do this. I totally got it. So, I was sad to lose the company because they did a great job. So I went with Sunrise Lawn and Landscaping for a year. AWFUL. I would email them and not hear back for days and days. The were WAY overpriced and totally not flexible. For example, if I asked for a small side service, they would come back with a ridiculous price quote or say they couldn't do the job. So, that year we had a second kid and I didn't have time to mow in the summer. So, I called Dave and signed up for a turfcare package and mowing package. I also did my usual "Spring Cleanup" service (weeding, mulching, trimming bushes, etc.). I can't say enough good things about Dave. He is a great guy and really is a true professional. Any time I've had an issue (very minor stuff), he addresses it immediately and makes sure it doesn't happen again. He is a perfectionist. If I email him even with a simple question, he emails me back immediately, and is also very flexible with small job requests that aren't on his standard services. For example just yesterday I asked him if he could cut the front bushes because they were out of control. I didn't need to do an entire, more expensive "Fall Cleanup" package, so he did it today for a very reasonable price (I don't want to say the amount out of respect for his pricing competitiveness). It doesn't get any better than that. I highly recommend A Cut Above without reservation. I am very picky when it comes to customer service and my lawn, and I am a very satisfied customer. read more

I hired this company to build a patio. They did a great job, with a lot of attention to details. There were a couple layers of old stones and concrete already there, but they removed everything so the patio would have a reliable foundation (which some other companies didn't want to do) and built exactly what I asked for. If you need a new patio or walkway I would recommend giving them a call. read more

Used them for about two or three seasons to simply mow and trim, so nothing fancy. Made several requests for them to please cut the lawn lower since on many occasions they would leave it extremely high. So high that on many occasions it would seem as if it wasn't cut at all. Every season it would take several requests and they would finally cut it lower after initially always claiming that it was not possible; yet the height was always made much more prominent when compared to both of my abutting neighbors' lawns. This lawn season which just started the same thing occurred. What took me by surprise was not that I have to make the same simple request several times, but rather that this season the owner (Chris) was extremely rude about it. I had seen several reviews about this guy on line and always thought, well that hasnt been my experience yet. Well, I guess now my time came... This person is extremely rude and very unprofessional. Another review I saw recently stated that they must pay some web service to erase negative reviews (which is a service some business do have) cause their review was erased several times, and hence that may be why these guys have high ratings. Well, dont know if that is the case, but in all my correspondences with their team I've always been polite, so not sure why this guy would find it necessary to be so unprofessional. Anyways, hopefully others have a better experience, but I personally would not recommend this company. read more

I just was introduced to A Cut Above this year and I am thoroughly impressed with the professionalism and expertise that they show. My yard has never looked better. The prices are affordable and the crew is friendly and they clean up very well after mowing. I highly recommend them if you are looking for a quality landscaping team. read more

Hired them one year. Looked to hire them again and work with their schedule, but their customer service greatly degraded two years ago. Not sure why. Web site clearly states jobs and pricing, but continually gave us the run around on pricing and service scheduling. read more

A Cut Above is truly a cut above. So many organizations in this area that provide home services, do so in a vacuum. It's so hard to contact anyone if you have a question or a request. In addition to providing quality lawn care, they constantly communicate and never leave us in the dark. A Cut Above is truly a professional organization. read more

I am a new customer. I called A Cut Above after the last company blew it. I spent a lot of money and my yard looked worse after two years of an expensive maintenance plan. A Cut Above was responsive, professional and precise. They did a thorough yard cleanup then applied seed and sod only a month ago. Their work was impressive and my yard never looked so good. The follow-up was a full fertilizer and weed treatment just over a week ago. Weeds are disappearing and the new seed rapidly overtaking bare spots. Plus, I was given clear, easy to follow instructions to maintain the yard (something I barely got from the last company). My front and back yards are transformed thanks to A Cut Above! read more

I had A Cut Above handle mulching, cleanup, and sod installation for an end unit town house. The amount of landscaping for this house is pretty substantial and much of it is located on a steep hill. They did an incredible job on everything and are very competitively priced. read more

A Cut Above provided my lawn care this past year and helped me salvage my lawn. I have used them for mowing, lawn care applications and leaf removal. In every aspect of their service I have found the individuals performing the work to be professional, courteous and effective. We have two small dogs that love to run so I am very concerned about insuring gates are closed and that I am aware that folks are here to perform work. The workers have been great about knocking on the door and insuring that I am aware of their presence. In addition in the past I have used a local nursery for same services and paid a lot more without any where near the same quality of service. I have already signed up for the upcoming year. read more

Great lawn care company! They do a fantastic job cutting our grass and trimming the borders. We've been using them for the past five years and would never change companies! We haven't used their other services but my neighbor who has used them for leaf removal and general yard clean up seems very happy with them too. read more

A Cut Above has been caring for our yard for the past 3 years and we have been very pleased. We have engaged several different lawn services in the almost 30 years and none provided the quality of service we have gotten from this company. They currently take care of all our yard maintenance needs, including mowing, pruning, mulching, fertilizing, etc., at a very reasonable cost. The company owner is quick to respond to questions or concerns, " knows his stuff" when it comes to Northern Virginia horticulture, and has made excellent recommendations for services beyond what A Cut Above currently provides. And most importantly - they got grass to grow in an area in which NO ONE ELSE has ever been successful! Our yard looks good - and all we have to do is sit back and enjoy it. read more

This is our first year with A Cut Above and so far we are very happy. Dave and Chris are both very responsive. I love the email telling us that they will be mowing in 24-48 hours. We had a weed problem and they treated it twice and it is much better. We used their landscaping advice to do some planting and replacement. They also cleaned and mulched the yard. The workers worked all day and never stopped except for lunch. The trimming looks awesome and professional. read more

We contacted A Cut Above to receive a quote for removing bushes, a general yard clean up and ongoing lawn treatment. They were out within a couple of days and we received our quote the day after that. We felt it was very fair and decided to move forward with them. The crew was very professional and their work was awesome! We are very pleased with their services and their quick turnaround! Happy clients indeed! read more

I have nothing, but great things to say about using A Cut Above for the past few years. The fall/spring cleanups make my property look like a real-estate brochure. His mowing and fertilization crew are always professional and timely. Anytime I've ever had a question he has been extremely responsive. I'm unfortunately moving to a location outside his service range. I can say that the landscaping helped sell my house in record time. read more

When we had our initial "consult" to discuss plans for our yard/landscaping, we felt in good hands right from the start. Dave is highly professional, and willing to work with you on your needs/wishes so that you are comfortable that you are being provided with an honest experience; he will not recommend or push something that you don't actually need. The service we have had already is top notch and it is refreshing to receive such professional, hard working results at a fair price. HIGHLY recommend. read more
