TLDR: Do Not Use Reed's Lawncare - Charged Me for Services Never Performed…read more I'm not someone who leaves 1-star reviews lightly, but Reed's Lawncare in Hampton Roads has left me no choice. This goes beyond poor service into what feels like outright theft. What Happened: I initially hired Reed's for prep work on a rental property listing. The work was acceptable, so I signed up for their $130/month recurring service (every 2 weeks for mowing and maintenance). The Problems: The no-shows started immediately. At least four separate times, they simply didn't appear on the scheduled day. When I'd text to ask what happened, the response was always the same: "I have you on the schedule tomorrow." No proactive communication. No acknowledgment of the missed appointment. Just excuses. Rain delays are understandable, but a professional service calls or texts to reschedule. Reed's never did. I have cameras on the property, so I know for certain they weren't coming out. The Real Issue: Despite not showing up, they kept charging me $130 monthly. When I noticed my yard looked terrible and contacted them for end-of-season leaf removal, I got the usual "I have you on the schedule tomorrow" line. No one came. No explanation. Then I was charged another $130 for December with zero work performed. I asked directly what I was being charged for over the last two months. Read receipts confirmed they saw my messages. They never responded. I requested cancellation and a refund for December since no work was done. Complete silence. I had to cancel my bank account to stop the unauthorized charges. Bottom Line: I'm out hundreds of dollars for services never rendered, my yard is a mess, and I have zero recourse because they simply stopped communicating once I questioned the charges. This isn't poor customer service. This is taking people's money and providing nothing in return. I want to support a local small business but cmon. Buyer beware.

In no time my lawn looked so nice and clean. I had to tell my neighbor. I finally I have a great Lawn Care Company that has great works behind the Reed's name.

We discussed bi-weekly lawn care and I'm very excited to continue business with Terry as the crew did a great job. He was super friendly and understood exactly what we needed since we are moving out of our rental soon. They removed the debris we needed moved and Terry also let me know it would take probably 2 cuts before all the weeds were gone because that's what traditionally happens. I feel confident in the care our yard is going to have while we're still here and I'm happy we were able to find Terry.

He was able to accommodate for my work schedule and got the job done the same day! It's hard to properly express how bad the yard was before he got here... most of it was so overgrown, it was past my knees. We live near the water so the grass had become a haven for snakes and other critters. On another note, he seems like a genuinely good person who takes care of his customers. I am so thankful that they called me back before anyone else!

Ivan greeted me with a smile and was able to start my lawn the same week. He did an excellent job with mowing, edging, and leaf blowing. Our yard always looks crisp and clean when he comes. I had also had him come out on several different occasions for bush trimming, and cleaning up my flower beds, and laying new mulch. He works hard and his work is excellent. His prices are extremely fair compared to other lawn companies in the area. I highly recommend him for any yard services.

They responded quickly with an estimate and evaluation of our needs. The tree was nearly 50' and I was very concerned about letting just anyone cut that tree down, I wanted someone insured, very experienced to be sure no one got hurt plus had the right equipment to get it down safely. We also had outdoor structures out there and I didn't want any of those damaged. Once we decided it needed to come down for safety reasons we were lucky enough to be able to fit into their schedule and have now gotten it taken down. I have never seen such careful guys taking care of all our things, making sure to cause the least amount of disruption to our property as possible. Took less than a day and they cleaned up beautifully!!! Thank you to all the guys for being so sweet, nice and careful, for going above and beyond in taking care of our needs, outstanding job!!!! I would definitely not hesitate to use them again, they would be the first call on my list.
