What customers say

The Lawn Man is run by Paul, named consistently across feedback from customers around Chester-le-Street whose gardens have been treated for moss, weeds and general neglect over the years. More than one review highlights lawns transformed from patchy or damaged states into thick, healthy grass, sometimes within a single visit, with several noting that neighbours or family remarked on the difference. Quarterly treatment plans feature heavily, alongside occasional larger interventions such as scarifying, aeration, seeding and top soiling for lawns needing a full overhaul. Customers dealing with shaded areas prone to moss, gardens damaged by building work, or grass under pressure from pets describe steady improvement and ongoing guidance from Paul on how to maintain results between visits. One account mentions a return visit at no extra cost after a heatwave affected newly seeded areas, reflecting a pattern of follow-up care rather than a one-off job. Several long-standing customers report using the service across multiple years, citing reliability and a lack of pressure to book unnecessary extra work. Pricing is described as fair given the quality achieved. The business is based on Hawthorn Terrace and operates every day of the week from eight in the morning until six in the evening, making appointments straightforward to arrange throughout the Chester-le-Street and Sunderland area.

I've been using Paul for over ten years and wouldn't use anybody else. Fantastic service and my lawn looks great all year around.

Paul has been looking after our lawn now for a number of years. We have some problems as the lawn is partially shaded, and so is susceptible to developing moss from time to time. He knows exactly what treatments and feed to apply, and soon rectifies the problem, bringing the lawn back to full vibrancy. He and his team are most obliging and helpful with lots of sound advice on other garden management queries. I can highly recommend Paul, and encourage you all to take advantage of his gardening expertise.

We have been getting our grass treated quarterly by Paul for about a year now. Last month we had him come over and give the grass a full overhaul. (scarifying, airrating, seeded and top soiled). Everything all went well but we were hit with a ridiculous heat wave, which stopped some of the seed taking on . Paul came back this morning and retreated all the impacted areas without any additional cost. Would highly recommend him to anyone looking at getting the grass treated quarterly, or needing an overhaul.

We contacted Paul a few weeks ago as our lawns were really bad full of weeds. From first contact onwards Paul has been prompt , professional and ever so helpful. Even after just first treatment the results have been amazing. I highly recommend Paul from The Lawn Man as a very professional trustworthy very fairly priced business who goes above and beyond to help. Really pleased we chose this company and will continue to use.
