What customers say

Based on genuine customer reviews

Treating and restoring domestic lawns is the work that customers describe most often, and the accounts they give concentrate on how the grass looks once a programme is under way. Several reviewers describe lawns that had been dull, moss-infested or full of weeds becoming thick, green and healthy, holding their colour right through the summer. Advance notice of visits is a recurring theme, with treatment dates and planned activities confirmed beforehand and the operatives arriving when they said they would.

Chris and Steve, together with the wider team, are repeatedly called efficient and friendly, and the price charged is widely described as fair and reasonable for the results achieved. Regular applications, in some cases every few months, are credited with keeping lawns in condition over several years, and driveway weed treatment is mentioned as additional work handled without fuss. Long-standing clients speak of programmes adjusted to the particular needs of their own gardens, and the recovery of the grass is offered as the clearest evidence that the job has been done properly.

We paid for our lawn to be scarified and reseeded in October. The scarification itself seemed fine, but none of the seed took — leaving us with large patches of bare, hard earth over the winter. Greensleeves acknowledged this was due to lack of rain in early October (unlike their later jobs that month which had been more successful) and offered to reseed in the spring at no charge, which we appreciated. Unfortunately the spring visit got off to a poor start when they failed to turn up on the appointed day and we had to chase them. When two operatives eventually came, they simply walked over the lawn scattering seed onto the hard, bare patches and told us to water it because the ground was very hard — and that was the extent of it. My husband looked into it afterwards and while this approach can work, it carries a high risk of failure; the proper method for compacted ground would have been to aerate the patches, seed, and then cover with soil. Predictably, it didn't work. We have since done it ourselves — aerating, seeding and covering with soil — and the results are already looking very promising. The whole experience was really disappointing. We chose Greensleeves precisely because they are supposed to be the experts, and we expected rather more than what was delivered.

excellent service from this team. we had used one of the other companies before who were a real struggle to use as they were bad at communicating and inflexible with visits. the communication is excellent, very fair pricing, and the lawn is looking the best it ever has. thank you.

Greensleeves have been looking after our lawns for 3 years and we have been delighted with the results. They always turn up as agreed and are very friendly. It has been better having them do regular treatments than re-turfing which would have been more expensive

My lawn has never looked so good - grass now grows under a tree that I have always had difficulty doing. Friends often comment how lovely my lawn looks.

Greensleeves keeps our lawns weed free, green, and a pleasure to look at. The cost is reasonable. Operative always contacts us the day prior to visiting and suggests any special lawn treatments. We have used Greensleeves for several years and would have no hesitation in recommending them.

I have been a Greensleeves client for 2 years and the lawn has improved out of sight, weed and moss free and green through the summer. The service from Greensleeves is excellent, they book the visits early and communicate visit times and planned activities clearly. The operatives are efficient and friendly. It was a great decision to go with Greensleves.
