Kindness We Will Never Forget…read more This past winter, my grandma slipped on her icy driveway. She's living on a very tight retirement income, and with the recent heartbreak of losing her brother, life has already been so heavy on her shoulders. We were worried for her safety and didn't know how we'd manage snow removal through the long season. Then Authentic Seasonal Services showed up. They cleared her driveway and walkways with such care -- and when it came time to pay, they simply refused. They said, "Take care of your family, that's what matters most." In that moment, it wasn't just snow that was lifted. It was a weight, a fear, a reminder that goodness still exists. Their compassion moved us to tears. Authentic Seasonal Services didn't just do a job. They gave dignity, kindness, and hope to someone who truly needed it. This is more than a landscaping and snow removal company -- this is a company with a heart, and we will forever be grateful.

While our service with them started out great, it went downhill…read more We have dogs and locked gates on our yards. For this reason we asked if they'd let us know before they came to spray, so we could make sure that the dogs were put away, gates unlocked, and they'd have access to spray the whole property. They said that was no problem, and they would let us know a day in advanced. They indicated they try to do the spraying a month apart. Generally 4-6 weeks. Two services occurred in which there was no call. During the second tick spraying, the employee confirmed that they had been calling an incorrect number. We corrected their file then, even though we had done this previously already with their main office (twice!). Fortunately my wife happened to be home during both of those instances and she was able to take care of the dogs and locks. When the time came for our 3rd service, the six week mark came. I called the main office because I hadn't heard anything yet and wanted to make sure we were still good. There were two women that I spoke to though neither were able to give me a straight answer. Eventually we received a call, though it was minutes before they said they were going to show up, and we were all an hour and a half away from the house. Had they called the day before, or even that morning, to let us know, we could have managed, but we were told that they wouldn't be able to spray us then, and that we'd be taken care of the next day. The next day came, and no call and no one showed up. Eventually we called the guy who called the day prior. He said that they weren't spraying that day. (This would have been nice to know the day before or at least a courtesy call to let us know, rather than us waiting around all day and calling them.) I then called the main office and was told that they were done spraying for the season and that for the few they didn't get to, they didn't know when they would. They were helpful and courteous while I was first setting up my service with them, and Larry (who I believe is the owner) was knowledgeable and made himself available to answer questions. However, the business as a whole has poor logistics, poor communication, and while they were quick to hook new customers, they did nothing to try and keep them.

I was skeptical about using this company for our fall lawn aeration, seeding & fertilizing probably…read morebecause I selected this company from Craig's list. Joe Tinsley, the owner, came over and measured the yard then sent an estimate, via email. Very good. At the bottom of the estimate was a note saying 50% deposit is required. I balked. As I explained to him, no way was I giving any company 50% of anything upfront. They don't want to get ripped off but neither do I. We compromised, I gave him 100% cash for the pre-treatment on the day it was done. No risk to him or me, excellent. Then we waited for the weeds to respond. I am still anxious now to get this done. Joe calms me down. He stops by the house to explain why being patient and waiting for the weeds to die off and rain is best. After a few days of rain, the lawn is aerated and reseeded. I pay Joe 100% in cash for this also! no risk to either parties again. Joe leaves written instructions on what to do for the next 4 weeks while seeds germinate and grow. I set the sprinkler system. Joe stops by after 10 days, checks the yard and shows us what part (sunny portion) is not getting enough water. I adjust the sprinkler system. It's been 5 weeks. The lawn is a plush green. The sprinkler system was winterized today so no more mass watering. I think the new grass will make it unless there is a sustained dry spell which is not likely this time of year. There is still one sunny patch I will continue to water because the seeds germinated late. Otherwise the yard is ready for winter and 2015, thanks to Joe Tinsley's expert advice and attention. I am extremely happy with the results and no longer a skeptic. I am a fan! LOL

The company secured the Calvert permit to cut a tree in the Bay zone and completed the job on time and at cost-which was reasonable. The quality of the job was better than I had asked for.
