I want to thank Lance for a job well done. Took a leap of faith finding them on Yelp and all the reviews were accurate so I had to add mine. Lance was trustworthy, dependable and knew his stuff. Performance of the job was excellent and Robert then led the team by paying attention to detail. Very happy to work together with Design and Build and would absolutely recommend them to others!

These guys met expectation and more, very professional and courteous. I can't believe with the service that they give there no yelp reviews. They finished the job in less than a week, 3 days to be exact, if had not rained, it could've been 2 days. They don't nickel and dime in term of the price which is good for our budget. Always answer and return calls whenever we need to ask questions and sent some of his guys to complete the final work. We're happy with the service.

Chris's Lawn Service

(15 reviews)

Chris has been doing landscaping and lawn services for me since last year. He is dependable and…read morehonest! I will continue to use his company for all of my landscaping needs. He is easy to talk to and always cleans up after himself.

Please read this before you consider hiring this company. While their website looks professional…read moreand their services seem clearly outlined, our actual experience with Chris's Landscaping was completely different from what was promised. I'm sharing our story so others can avoid the same frustrating situation. We chose this business because they are local, and the owner, Chris, seemed professional at first. Before service began, I messaged him directly to spell out exactly which services we wanted and which ones we did not want. On the day of the first visit, my husband also spoke with Chris in person to go over those same boundaries. I saved all of our written messages, and our security camera captured the full audio and video of that conversation, including Chris agreeing to our terms. Despite all of that, he performed services we specifically declined, skipped ones we agreed to pay extra, even though all other landscapers include a light fluff of the dirt in font of the front bushes considering he also charges extra for edging it out. He also left heavy lawn bags in front of our house eve though that was another issue that was both discussed in writing and at the time of the first visit, and another one of the visits. We had explained clearly that our town collects grass on Wednesdays, and Chris promised to schedule our cuts close to that day so the bags wouldn't sit outside all week. He also agreed to leave the bags at our neighbor's curb, due to the fact she too is a customer and agreed to it. I have all of this in writing. Yet it never happened, not once. This was not a minor inconvenience. My husband is in his 70s and living with an abdominal aneurysm. I explained to Chris that my husband physically cannot move heavy bags, and that doing so could put his life at risk. Chris is good for making promises and not keeping them. In the beginning he would messages back politely, and then proceeded to ignore every single thing he agreed to do, week after week. The billing situation was even worse. He charged us several hundred dollars over the agreed price, nearly double, billing us for a spring cleanup that included seeding he only partially did, aeration with a machine that barely touched the surface, and branch and leaf removal when we had neither branches nor leaves. Our camera footage shows his crew was at our property for a total of 19 minutes, with Chris spending more than 10 of those minutes standing outside in front of my home, talking to someone in an SUV. Approximate six-minute visit, give or take a minute or two, on a separate occasion covered the front, a side strip, and the backyard. When I immediately raised the overcharge issue, he claimed it was an accident in the Yardbook system and that he had mistakenly signed us up for every available service. He promised a refund two weeks in a row via Messenger. It never came. I had no other choice then to let him go, and file a formal dispute with Chase, and the bank found entirely in my favor based on the written message trail alone. They didn't even need to see the video footage, though I have saved everything to iCloud. There were other issues too. On the first visit, his crew backed into my shed, popped the door open, and left it that way. They also never closed our gate, not one single time. We have neighborhood cats that come into our yard regularly, and an open shed full of chemicals, machinery and tools, it's not a safe situation for any animal. Once I confronted Chris about the ongoing problems, he stopped coming with his crew entirely and simply ignored us. We have been dealing with this since the first week of April. It is now May 16th, and we have had to cancel our credit card to prevent further unauthorized charges and start the process of finding a new landscaping company from scratch. We were looking for a reliable, long-term relationship with a local business. What we got was broken promises, overbilling, ignored safety concerns, and zero accountability. If you are looking for someone professional and trustworthy, I strongly suggest you look elsewhere. One last note: if you scroll through the reviews here, you will notice that Chris responds warmly to the positive ones and ignores the ones that raise concerns. That pattern alone says a great deal.​​​​​​​​​​
