How to Choose a Lawn Care Service Without Focusing on the Lawn



Five Subtle Hints You Can Look For That Begin with Your First Call


If you’re searching for someone to take over your lawn care maintenance this spring, it pays to look around.  It would be best if you found a lawn maintenance company that fits your budget, has references, is available to take on new customers, etc. 


And there are lots of them to choose from.  From one-man operations to large corporate giants, you’ve got choices.  You look at reviews and you ask family and neighbors for referrals


And then you call for a quote (Cue ominous music!). That’s the big step and the one that will likely lead you to your choice.  


It’s the "Get a Quote" part that offers the best opportunity for you to see what you’re getting into with any particular lawn care maintenance service provider.  Look for these five telltale experiences to give you a deeper understanding of whether any one particular service provider is right for you


When you call for a quote…


Did they Call You Back?

Unfortunately, many don’t.  They’re just too busy.  That may be a clue that you won’t be a priority, or that they won’t have time to do a good job if they take you on as a lawn care customer.  Here at Sollars, we call you back, because we treat people the way we’d want to be treated.  You should expect that from anyone you call, and it’s a big clue to what to expect moving forward.


Did They Show Up On Time?

If they do call back, did they respect your time and show up promptly?  Again, if they won’t show up when trying to earn your business, they may not show up after they already have.  It would be best if you didn’t have to chase them…call someone who will respect your time.


Did They Ask Questions?

Larger organizations may give prices and let you decide.  Smaller outfits may need your business so badly that they give you a low price without a second thought.  At Sollars, we think every lawn and every customer is unique, and so we ask questions before we quote a project.  Your quote should be custom fit for your needs, and the only way to do that is to ask first.  


Did They Put It in Writing?

Transparency is key to a successful client-contractor relationship. Watch out for the fine print, and for delays for specific requests.  At Sollars Landscaping, you’ll know exactly what the price is, and what that price covers. As long as we set that up first, we can decide where and when to go above and beyond.  (That’s the fun part!)


And finally, Do You Like Them?

Did you like the folks who showed up on behalf of the potential lawn maintenance contractor?  Did they dress well, were they likable, trustworthy, and confident? Do they make you feel comfortable? The person who maintains the curb appeal on your house must be someone you’d be proud to have in your home.  


At Sollars Landscaping Services, we believe in treating every client like they are the most important one. From the moment you contact us to the completion of your project, you can expect personalized attention and a customer-centric approach. Your satisfaction is our top priority, and we go the extra mile to ensure that your landscaping experience exceeds expectations.


That’s the way we feel everyone should be.  And that’s why we wrote this helpful article.  The best choice for you is out there, and quite often, it’s about more than just mowing the lawn.


Choosing Sollars Landscaping Services means choosing a partner who values your time, understands your vision, and delivers on promises. From prompt callbacks to fair and transparent quotes, our commitment to excellence shines through every step of the process. Transform your outdoor space with confidence, knowing that Sollars is dedicated to making your landscaping dreams a reality.
