Our grass was a disaster. We met the Weed Man at one of the local festivals and called them. We hired them last year, and they did several applications. Our grass started to look better. They have been here at least twice since the new year and show up when they say they will. Our grass is now thick, green and beautiful! A friend of mine hired weed folks at the same time as me last year in southern Maryland. She ended up with a national company. She said her yard still has weeds. Ours looks AMAZING!! Thank you !! read more

Weed Man Destroyed My Lawn -- Total Scam! I've paid $600/year for 3 years and my lawn looks like a complete disaster -- covered in weeds, dead yellow patches, and worse than before I hired them. I kept paying because they kept telling me, "continued service will make your lawn better." Instead, it just kept getting worse and worse! Every issue I brought up? "Not included." "Buy another package." And when I asked if paying more would actually fix anything, they said "maybe in 2-3 years." Are you kidding me? It's a dishonest, predatory business model designed to upsell, stall, and take your money. No results. No accountability. Constant staff changes. The owner isn't even in the country -- nobody takes responsibility. I've attached photos as proof, and anyone is welcome to come see my lawn in person. They didn't just do nothing -- they made it worse. Stay far away. Weed Man Purcellville is a scam, and you'll regret every dollar. read more

Ok service but horrible policy. I signed up for a year and paid and canceled next year but without my ok they came and did a service and charged me for it. They need better practices. Why the shady practices? read more

After the first year service fell off drastically at my Warrenton property. They continued to promise treatment and make it a priority. They never showed up to treat the lawn after several attempts. read more

Smh- evidently I was right about the accounting being rather wacky as I just received a refund check for $84. Accurate billing that does not change in two days would have saved a lost customer. read more

Weed Man - Pest Control Near Me - Purcellville, Virginia

Absolutely clueless. Had an issue with grubs. Sent technician out and he Agreed. When I asked what they were going to do to correct his supervisor said she would inspect. Came out found beetles in grass but their analysis was fungus and they bore no liability. Cancelled them immediately. They guarantee nothing, response is terrible. Do not recommend them for anything to do with lawn care read more

Weeed Man thats for sure. Its like the workers are all high and super unprofessional. Beware!!! They need to get better professionals who conduct themselves as businessman. Would not recommend to my worst enemy. Waste of money!!! The youngest guy they have covered from head to toe in tattoos had an attitude like I was ruining his day and owed him something!! Completely appalled by the service!!!! Better off hiring the kid down the street. read more

Do you want someone to charge you for things you dont ask for? Here's the justification for the stars: -1 star for almost killing the part of my lawn that doesn't have any weeds through misapplication of a weedkiller that would also kill the zoysia. -1 star for more weeds in my lawn this year than last year... especially in the areas I did not have problems with weeds until these guys showed up -1 star for spraying my lawn without permission after I pulled all my info from their website -1 star for having the gall to charge me for the service I did not want or ask for I'd give them fewer stars if I could - these jokers are sending a letter threatening to send my bill to collections when they owe me far more. read more

If you value your time, money, and lawn, you should take your business elsewhere! It seems like Amateur Hour all the way around... from the crew that did the work, to both the Technicians they sent to "fix" it, to the back office. They tore my friend/neighbor's yard to shreds in several areas (their actual customer), but also tore up part of what we both consider my yard right by my driveway, which is largely separated by trees, bushes, rocks, and a mulch bed. I have used, maintained, and planted that area for 3+ years, without incident or objection, therefore have legal right to continue to do so... meaning the damage they caused to that area did affect me, hence this review. (I explained this over the phone early on). Additionally, as my neighbor was on vacation at the time, I acted (at his request) as his proxy in meeting with the Technician, as well as the initial contact/complaint. The details... *Poor judgement by the office to send a crew out for aeration after a torrential downpour the day and night before, and more rain that morning. *Poor judgement by the crew to use their equipment on a clearly over-saturated lawn. *Negli... Let's just say extremely terrible judgement by the crew to just keep going after seeing how bad they were already tearing the lawn up. *The crew simply threw some grass seed down and left as if what they did was in any way acceptable. The heavily damaged patch by my driveway was the most egregious, but part of my neighbor's back yard almost looked like they took a rototiller to it. Those are far from the only areas, and even where they didn't tear things up, they left several ruts... but I've only attached pics of 'my side'. As bad as they are, it was even worse in person! *My first interaction with Kassidy (the Manager) seemed promising, and she sent a Technician out. He was understanding of me wanting sod rather than waiting for grass to grow/fill in, but said he would have to check w/ the office. 10 min later he rang my doorbell and said (and I quote) "I got it cleared, someone will be out to sod on Monday!" I don't know who from Weed Man that story originated with, but really, I can only refer to it as being LIED to. No one showed, so when I called Kassidy to complain, she claimed it was a "miscommunication", and told me that "As a company, we don't lay sod, or have the tools to do so." So how does a miscommunication go from that to what the Technician told me?! I take as evidence, the fact that he raked-over and laid seed and "top soil" to several other areas but did not add seed, soil, or even flatten the damage by my driveway. -Presumably because a crew was going to come and fix it/lay sod that Monday anyway. *They sent a 2nd Technician after that complaint, as well as one from my neighbor (now back in town). The Technician was very argumentative and not listening to anything we were telling him. The "top soil" he was going to put down was full of wood chips... we both clearly told him if that's what he was going to use, we didn't want it. He supposedly went to Lowes for more, but it was basically the same stuff; mostly filler, consisting of small and medium wood pieces. When I sent Kassidy pictures, she replied via email saying, "That doesn't look like any topsoil I've ever seen." It was probably 90% wood chips, as you can see in two of the pics below. But too late, it was already down. *I requested Kassidy provide a written guarantee that I'd be satisfied with the remedy/results. She provided that, and stated that she would be checking-in each week. -But the only time she circled back after that promise was a week and a half later after I had emailed her requesting someone come out and put additional seed down to fill the gaps where there was insufficient or no seed, and add some ACTUAL soil. -Not unreasonable! She replied, but essentially blew me off with a "let's wait and see" type of statement. From that point on, she was completely non-responsive to my follow-up email and avoided my phone calls for the next week -- whoever was answering the phone continually said that she was either not available or "on the other line", but never called back. *Ultimately, Kassidy finally emailed, stating that my neighbor was their customer not me. In other words... go away. I do believe that because of my established use and maintenance of the area and her guarantee, that I have a just complaint. Additionally, my neighbor who IS their customer told them "I don't care what you have to do to fix it, but make that area perfect." I know this because I was right next to him when he said it. So It shouldn't have mattered anyway. All I was asking for at that point was a return phone call and maybe 5-10 minutes of a Technician putting down additional seed and some actual soil. Again, not unreasonable by any means! *Judging by the 2.5 avg rating (and that's w/ the benefit of a 1-star minimum!) their work seems very hit or miss anyway, so why risk it? *Re-read the 1st sentence! read more

We have had an excellent experience working with Weed Man. We had them spray our yard the last few years for ticks, and mosquitos. It's made a huge difference in being able to enjoy our yard again. We recently got a dog and our yard has taken a beating. We called them up right away and with the pictures we provided they were able to quickly give us information and start taking steps in recovering our yard again. Highly recommend! read more

This is my fourth spring in my home with a pretty big lawn. The first two years I did my own lawn treatments and seeding, but that second fall Weed Man sent me a quote for seeding and aeration that seemed to good to be true, so I hired them for that service. Then I got a call about the spring/summer weed/fertilizer treatments, and that pricing also seemed too good to be true, so I signed up for that in 2021, along with the fall seeding and aeration again. If you pay upfront, they offer a discount off their already low prices. Last year my lawn was green until Christmas, as I watched many of my neighbor's yards turn brown in the fall. I have spoken with many people at this company from sales to the techs who perform the services, and everyone is professional and friendly. I actually like taking their calls! When I have questions, they answer them. When I say I want to wait for the sale, they say okay. The techs are mindful of my dog, and the man who performed most of my treatments last year knocked on my door with a smile the first time he came back this spring, making sure the pup was inside before he opened the gate. Never once has the gate been left open when they leave. Last weekend I was working out in the yard admiring my luscious green grass and noticed the dandelions were starting to come up. I thought, "I'll call Weed Man on Monday and see when they are coming" and then my phone rang with the courtesy call to let me know Weed Man was coming Monday. The dandelions are looking pretty pathetic three days later! I think I am now spending less money on lawn treatments than when I was doing it myself, and I really couldn't be happier with the services received from Weed Man. I live in Herndon, but Weed Man Loudoun services this area. I currently employ them for weed treatments, fertilizer, and fall seeding/aeration and would definitely recommend them for these services. read more

Very disappointed with this company. Signed up and prepaid. Twice now was billed for work not performed Asked to be called prior to service. Nope. Say they serviced on Sunday morning. Nope can't wait to hear the excuse this time. Cancel my contract and refund me my money. No sign, the old one was destroyed by the stump grinder friday. No doorbell or knock. Someone was home. read more

Weed Man couldn't be more professional and customer service-oriented! They deliver outstanding service and and I highly recommend them! Our lawn was in shambles when we moved in a few years ago and Weed Man helped bring our lawn back to life! read more

Weed Man - Pest Control Near Me - Purcellville, Virginia

Weedman is a complete fraudulent scam. On more than one occasion I've caught them charging me for services they said they provided but in fact never actually provided. I'd give them zero stars if I could. You're better off using a local mom and pop business. read more

Par for the course and also reflected in other Weedman Reviews: I received a collections notice from Weedman saying I have an outstanding invoice. I was told by both "customer care" reps that I had a zero balance and no outstanding invoices when I cancelled my account. I then received a call back saying that I owed them for service. I asked to speak to the owner/franchisee and I was told that I owed for the outstanding invoice and there was nothing they would be able to do. I have since called into the corp. office in Canada multiple times and no one will call me back, no one picks up the phone and at the end of the day no one really cares. Do yourself a favor and go buy a bag of fertilizer from Home Depot. read more

Very regular with their services... to a point where I didn't even know that they came by with the exception of the weed man sign they would leave and a couple of planted flowers which always looked pretty. My grass grew quickly... although I did have a couple of clay spots because of some runoff. I just wish they had a mowing service... which is ultimately why I'm leaving. That being said, the cancellation process was easy... a call and a follow up email. That was it... Thank you for your services. I'd recommend you if someone needed these services. read more

Bad service, shady billing practices, and zero courtesy for customers. I signed up for lawn service late in the season last year, and prepaid for all their recommended services. I spoke with them on the phone and made it a point that I'm going to commit to the remainder of the season only. They did aeration and overseeding, and we watched them from the window not spraying seed! My wife even followed the workers and said you need to seed, and they came back and seeded a very small patch only and waked away. When they emailed for renewal, I did not respond... so they just showed up, did a service for the new season and billed for it. I spoke with their customer service and they stated "we are a continuing service company". I explained that this is not what I was told last year, and it was not mentioned in their renewal offer, but it was like talking to a stonewall "there is nothing we can do". The rep said the policy was in the welcome email and the invoices. I just reviewed the welcome email and it wasn't there, and since I prepaid last year, I did not see the invoices. What kind of business model would try to trap customers in continuous service against their will? And would still collect for services their customer is clearly stating he did not want! read more

The weed man will kill your weeds and all the grass too. The joke in our neighborhood is that we had a landing strip in our front yard because they killed the grass. They said they would fix it. They didn't. When I called to talk to them about it they lied and said they didn't agree to fix it. Just embrace the weeds and buy clover. It is environmentally better and you will not waste your money and time. Also you will not have to deal with this company. It was a horrible experience. read more

So, I'm not quite sure why Weed Man is getting all this hate. I live in a development that is new construction and the builder didn't really go out of their way to give us a nice lawn when we moved in. Our lawn was about 80% weeds, 10% grass, and 10% dirt when they started. In a year of service we're probably the complete opposite now, with 80% grass, 10% weeds, and still battling the remaining 10%. They price matched. They show up when they say they are. The work they've done has been very good. They call me before I get a chance to call them, so I would say that they communicate very well. We are satisfied customers. read more

Would not recommend. Claims to provide personalized lawn care service. Not true. After two years the lawn showed no improvement. We had a weed grass that from day 1 we wanted controlled. Only once we canceled the service, did they finally admit they had not been using the right product to control that particular grass. Also one of the technicians left burn tracks all over the lawn. read more

First the bottom line up front: Use the $250 on a landscaping crew Let's start with the good on this review. Weedman will contact you back with any problems. The problem, with two services I could take before and after pics. Nothing looks like it was done. I still have out of control weeds. I wish I had give then the $249 to a landscaping company and just bought the round up to spray around the yard. Oh well, to keep your expectations grounded - do not expect weedman to pull or remove your weeds. They are there to spray and go. Does the spray work? No. That or I have mutant weeds that feed on their spray. I've had the service 3 weeks now and ask they come back on the 21st day which is when they will come back if nothing has taken. read more

Weedman has done an amazing job with our lawn care over the past few years. It went from a patchy weed filled lawn to amazingly green, thick, plush, weed-free lawn this year. They also provide us with tick prevention and since we started using that service we have had no ticks on either of our children or dog. I highly recommend Weedman for all your lawn care and tick prevention needs. read more

Weed Man has been working on my lawn for almost two years - and has my lawn looks a million times better than it did. I can't recommend them strongly enough. It takes a while, but they educate you on when to water and how to make to make your lawn perfect. In this area you really need to fertilize and kill weeds for your lawn to look amazing. Strongly recommend using them as their customer service is top notch. read more

Weedman has done a great job on our lawn! Their customer service is great and they've helped us maintain a great lawn with regular services and also really useful tips on watering and maintenance. Highly recommend them! read more

Beware of Weed Man , leesburg, va. They have very bad business ethics. I did not like their service and did my own lawn care. Now they serviced the lawn and asking for payment. They say they have a business continuity operations where they do not need oral or written confirmation once they start servicing your lawn. Hence check your agreements. I have not seen any such servicing company all these years. BAD BAD BAD business ethics. Have passed this info to lot of my friends . Also provided hem contact of a lawn care service which are cheaper and has better business ethics read more

I have used a number of different lawn care services in the past. Having a green weed free lawn is important to me. Weedman is hands down the best company we have had. Great results and client service. read more

Avoid this company at all costs. They did a door to door solicitation in my neighborhood and since then I have received atleast 50+ calls over a year to sign up. I have told them several times that I dont want to sign up and to take my number off their lists but they keep calling. If they are so aggressive at trying to get new customers, imagine how bad the service must be that they must constantly be scrambling to get new customers as they cant keep customers based on the bad reviews already on yelp.. read more

We have been using Weed man for the past couple years and our yard has never looked so good. Weed man is always prompt, professional and courteous. After the lawn has been treated, the technician always explains what has been done and answers any questions that we may have. We get many compliments as to how good the lawn looks. read more

We changed over to these guys from Another large lawn treatment firm. These guys were much less expensive and we saw a marked improvement after one treatment. This is also a locally owned franchise. These guys have been great to us and I would highly recommend them to anyone in Western Loudoun Cty. Outstanding Service! read more

They helped us get rid of our weeds and thicken up our yard. They told us it would take at least one year and to expect to see weeds come up until they improve density. They are easy to talk to and educate you too. read more

After giving them a year lawn was much worse (pictures on request). To make matters worse I cancelled twice with them and they still came out to "service" me and charged me! The 3rd time I seem to have been able to stop the service. read more

I gave them an opportunity. I was out of town and supposedly they treated my lawn the day I returned home. I was unaware of the treatment because I had no phone or internet service while I was away. I seen no difference in my lawn so why would I think anything had been done, NO STATEMENT was on my door or anywhere else informing me that a treatment had been done. Approximately a month later I was home when a "lawn tech" came to treat which was what thought the first treatment. A few weeks went by and noticed no difference, except the weeds seem to have gotten bigger and spread. I went to Lowe's and bought a gallon of Round Up, and sprayed my own lawn and the weeds were dead in 2 days and have yet to return 3 months later. I then get a call for payment for 2 treatments. So I guess it is normal now to pay full price for services that do not work? Services that I ended up doing myself with better results for just the price of a 1 gallon of Round Up ($22.00). They said I should have called them back to return for another treatment, and it takes 10 to 14 days for a treatment to work. So two 14 day periods is about a month, and over a quarter of a season. I'm sorry I gave you a shot, I am not going to stay on your little line to keep charging me, for something that does not work. Don't waste your time or money with this place, just do it yourself. They claim their treatment product is the best in the industry, you are either delusional or you are guilty of false advertisement! All it took me was quick trip to the store and I seemed to have found a product that actually works. You will get better, cheaper service, and results if you just do it yourself. read more

Their service quote was not apples-to-apples with their competitor, and their service satisfaction guarantee is a joke. You're better off to buy fertilizer at Home Depot, spread it yourself, and spend the extra money on a sprinkler system -- it's all about water... read more

POOR! POOR! POOR! Constantly receiving unsolicited calls from this company. When I pointed out that we are on the Federal Communication Commission's "Do Not Call" list, and his call was against the law, WEED MAN HAD THE NERVE TO TELL ME THAT I WAS "DEFINITELY INCORRECT"! read more

My weeds have never thrived, and my grass suffered more than they have since Weed Man Purcellville applied their product!

They did 4-5 applications and like others my yard looked worse after 6 months, tried to cancel and was billed another application!! they wanted to do two applications(at $58 each) for nutsedge, saying it's not covered. I asked why not it's a weed and was told it is very expensive to treat. I went to home depot and bought an $8 bottle which killed it! Tried to cancel and they sent my account to a collection agency! AVOID read more

Additionally, I was informed that my recorded phone conversation confirmed I did order services. I was not provided a transcript to confirm this on my end. I would like the emails I sent as follow ups to be considered so that the "whole" story of my experience would be understood. I had every intention of using WeedMan multiple times in fact IF my questions had been adequately answered, instead there was a rush to service and billing instead of communication about my unique situation. Very disappointed. read more

very consistent and reliable service. our lawn looks great. I don't run into the team much but when I do they are professional and courteous. read more

WHY DIDN'T I LOOK HERE FIRST! I regret that I am only now deciding to come here and check out their reputation. I conditionally agreed to start the service in April (to which they said "no problem, you can chose month to month and cancel any time"). $300 later I didn't see any improvement and said I didn't want to do it anymore. They asked why and I told them I didn't think it was worth it or doing anything for my lawn. They said they were sorry and would treat it again for free, but I said I didn't want their service anymore. A few weeks later, another yellow bill hanging on my door. I called and explained that I said I didn't want any more of their service and the guy argued with me and hung up on me. I called back to complain and they didn't pick up (yes, really). Another few weeks and I come home to more little flags and ANOTHER NEW BILL. SO now they are saying I owe them for two services and want to sell me next years service in advance for another $427!! STAY AWAY from these guys!!! read more
