Walsh & Company Landscape Maintenance

I called for a problem with a residential sprinkler system. Which had previously worked, but now had stopped working in all but one zone, on a house we had recently purchased. At the time of a calling I spoke to the irrigation guy and explained I knew nothing about sprinklers, but they had worked, and now were not. He came out on time, searched shortly for the additional valve boxes, decided the wire was broken underground and the valves couldnt be found. Charged 75 $ dollars for something they probably could have diagnosed over phone, when I stated that I had found only one solenoid. My sister in law and I found him rather abrasive. The fee was not stated while making the appointment 3 weeks prior.

Well I called for a quote and had a bad first impression. I was told by a man to call a different number, which he rambled off so fast, and then hung up on me as I was trying to read the number back to him. I definitely don’t want to do service with a company that is annoyed by prospective clients or can’t take the time to direct them to the right person.

This company is very good in their work. They are thorough and are very professional. I used them for this year’s mowing and maintenance of the yards and was very satisfied with their work.
Keep up the great work Matt.

We have given them over a month to show up and never did. We signed up for BI-​weekly maintenance and NEVER showed up :-/​Terrible service and lack of follow up, consider yourself warned… Stay far far away!!! I cannot believe they have five stars and the only thing I can think of is they had family members post these… sad!
Don’t ever seek their services, because they don’t even show up and then try to bill you. Shame shame! If I could I would give it ZERO stars!

FOR JUST A FEW BUCKS MORE! That’s right, I said a FEW bucks more (not millionaires bucks… working guy’s bucks). My wife and I decided to get a landscape service again to mow lawns and trim. I called a service that we had used before and were relatively satisfied with and asked for an estimate and saw Walsh & Co. on Unilocal and decided to give them a call as well.
We got an estimate from our prior company, and then Justin came to the house to do a survey. He told me that we would receive an estimate by email soon. This was an extremely professional estimate that laid our an entire year’s worth of work including during the «slow» winter months. It told how may times a month they would provide service and what those services would be. These services included many things that our old company did not do «for a few bucks less». They fertilize, do weeding in our flower beds (no kidding!) and do a marvelous job of general upkeep in our yard.
Recently my work schedule changed and I called Justin to ask if his crew could get to the house a little later to allow me to sleep, and they accommodated my schedule with no questions asked. They are responsive to customer needs and VERY REASONABLY priced. I wish there were some extra stars to give them in this rating… I’ll see if I can buy some for A FEW BUCKS MORE!!!
BOTTOM LINE… these guys are the best!!!

I had a leak in one of my sprinkler zones and could not locate it, I had two other companies come out and they could not even locate the control value box.
I had Bob from Walsh come out and he located it in less than 10 minutes. He found the problem and repaired it in no time and the cost was very fair. I should have called them in the first place it would of saved me money and time.
I would highly recommend this company
Thanks Bob for being very professional and explaining each step to me to make sure I understood what the problem was.

Right up front, I’m going to admit to being a lazyass.
I cannot recall the last time I mowed my own lawn. It’s hard work — hot, sweaty, dirty, and not my favorite way to spend a glorious spring afternoon. My husband has no love for it either — his allergies go into overtime when he gets behind the mower.
So, there should be no surprise when I tell you we started to get in trouble with our homeowners’ association for having our grass be a wee bit out of control.
Enter: the lawn services.
Our first foray into the market brought us a one-​man-​show whose biz was named «Gardener-​on-​the-​Go» — eventually he was «on-​the-​go» with our monthly check and stopped coming to our house entirely with no notice. Nice.
Next, we tried out another sole-​proprietorship whose enthusiasm for the job was tempered by his lack of experience. His reasonable prices were great — but he kept cutting too short and the grass wasn’t happy about it.
We hired Walsh on the recommendation of friends. They have been great about not only keeping the yard tidy and HOA-​approved, but have been actually fixing our sad, pathetic, lawn issues. The moss problem is almost gone, the patch of parasitic crab grass is going away, and the bare patches are filling in. Who knows, in a couple of weeks we may get the award for Prettiest Grass in the Neighborhood. If there is no such award, we may create one and bestow it upon ourselves.
The crew is prompt, fast (important because I work at home and mowers and trimmers interrupt my work day) and clean. They leave no trace that they were there except for the uniform wheel tracks in the lawn — all the trimmings and stuff go with them. They have answered all of our Stupid Homeowner questions and have been extremely helpful.
These guys have been a nice balance between a simple lawn-​mowing service and a chemical service (like Scott’s or Tru-​Green that doesn’t mow and merely treats your grass) that has actually made a big difference in the appearance of our yard.
