"(TL/DR: We are happy with the work Cory did, and I would recommend him for your landscaping needs.) The theme here is "all's well that ends well." Cory is one of the nicest guys you will ever meet, and he's very agreeable to work with. He and his crew work remarkably quickly, too, and the quality of work is very good. The job was not without its hiccups, though. Cory is not a proactive communicator, and that caused us some grief along the way. Without boring you with every detail, Cory and his crew got to work on Day 1, and by the end of Day 2, they had built an entire retaining wall on a line different from the one we'd talked about. He told me he had lain the foundation on Day 1 and, when he didn't hear from me, assumed it was correct and moved on to building the wall on Day 2. Problem is, he didn't inform me that I needed to review his Day 1 work (I never imagined that he would do the work differently than what we talked about when he met me for the initial estimate), or that he would interpret no word from me as acceptance of his work. The result was that he had to deconstruct the wall and then rebuild it along the correct line, which I'm sure was a lot of work, but he did it and did so cheerfully. This kerfuffle was unfortunately repeated, in essence, with the landscape stairs--building, followed by no word from him, followed by silence from me, followed by a discrepancy between what he built and what I wanted. This was especially frustrating, because, after the wall incident, he said he would take photos of the unfinished stairs and send them to me for approval before completing them. But, all's well that ends well: he and I met to discuss the issue, and then he and his crew redid the stairs to my satisfaction. To sum up, my experience with Cory is that he will make judgment calls, build, and hope it works out right rather than consulting you to see what you want and doing it that way (or telling you it can't be done that way for a particular reason). If you have a drawn plan that Cory can refer to, you may not have these issues, and perhaps I should have insisted on drawing him a plan when he didn't insist on having one before beginning work. Or, if you don't work during the day, you could oversee the work and give feedback as it's happening to prevent any issues from arising. But don't expect Cory to be proactive about communication. So, after all that, do I regret getting Cory to do the work? Absolutely not. He got it done quickly, did it well, did it for an excellent price, and went the extra mile to make sure we were happy. And we are. We are very excited about the way things turned out, and we can't wait to use the back yard space that Cory helped us create. I would absolutely recommend him."

To choose a weed removal service, make sure they have a license to do the job. Weed-killing chemicals are dangerous, and most states and counties require licenses for professional weed control. Check for the appropriate license on the company’s website and social media pages, or call and ask them directly. Otherwise, read customer reviews online and look for potential red flags in the Better Business Bureau’s company database. Finally, call them and ask about their treatment rate, experience level, and client testimonials.
Before the weed removal pro arrives, have your yard’s total square footage ready and note any accessibility issues like steep slopes or rocky areas. Inform them if you know the types of weeds present, as this affects treatment. Mention any preferences for eco-friendly or pet-safe herbicides. Lastly, discuss scheduling that fits your routine and ask for an estimate and timeline.
Consider tackling other lawn maintenance tasks when scheduling weed removal. Lawn care tasks like mowing, general yard work, and pest control are performed well with weed control services. It’s also an excellent opportunity to start landscaping projects like planting an herb garden or adding decorative stones to enhance your yard.
Manually pulling weeds offers immediate, chemical-free results and targets specific weeds without affecting other plants. It's ideal if you prefer eco-friendly methods and have concerns about children or pets. Herbicide sprays tackle large infestations and deep-rooted weeds more efficiently but involve chemicals. Choosing between them depends on your lawn’s needs and your preferences.
After applying herbicide, most weeds begin to show signs of wilting or discoloration within a few days to a week. Complete weed death often occurs within two to four weeks, depending on the type of herbicide used and the weed species. This timeline allows you to schedule follow-up treatments or lawn maintenance to promote healthy, lasting results.
