A large team came over aerated & power raked the lawn. They cleaned my gutters as well. At my request, they left 8 lawn bags full of thatch. My RIng doorbell recorder the men working. My neighbor came over and told he was impressed by their work, too. I wouldn't hesitate in contacting them again and I would recommend them. Thank you team Barrett.

I talked to Bobby Jensen in the sales department about a patio project that I had been planning. Over the winter the design was completed and started putting numbers to the project. Barrett was transparent what items costs and we agreed. In May the project started. Everything went smooth and looks beautiful. There were some hiccups that were beyond their control with supplies and ordering due to COVID, but at the end of the day, the project was a complete success. I would recommend Barrett to do any of my projects in the future.

I have been using Barrett Lawn Care for the past 4 years and they have been amazing! They are always on time and very professional. I had them do a full landscape design plan for my yard and an irrigation system which I have had them service ever since. The weed control and the organic mosquito control are awesome, makes the yard a great place to hang out in. I do recommend this company.

Barrett did a wonderful job with designing and installing my beautiful bluestone patio and retaining wall. The plantings Chad chose are perfect for the yard and high quality. Everyone working on our project was friendly and did a great job.

Barrett lawn service installed my sprinkler system two summers ago and did a follow up last summer and everything has been just perfect. This spring I started it up myself and found a couple heads needed adjusting and they came out two days later to adjust them. Bob is very helpful, professional and knowledgeable. I have found their service to be very high-quality and fast.

Barrett Lawn Care has been servicing my lawn for six years. What once was a weed infested mess is now THE BEST lawn on my block! Truly amazing. I recently hired them for some landscaping projects. Rock bed removal, fill & sod, and installation of a Class 5 pad for a shed. As always, they were professional. prompt, communicative, and the work was done perfectly!

The shed builder has been on the job for 31 years. When he finished the floor, he told me the pad was the most perfectly level pad he has ever seen! That's saying something! Don't hesitate when looking for any landscaping contractors! Barrett is the best!

I don't like giving one star reviews, but the service provided by Barrett lawn Care, actually deserves zero Stars. I should refined my answer a little bit by saying their lawn Care service may only be a one-star, and there snow plowing and ice Management service truly is a 0 Star. and I'm only speaking from a multi-family / commercial perspective not that of a residential home. Barrett lawn Care was contracted at the condominium where I live, they do the actual Morning on time the problem is many of the grounds crew are smokers, and we are a no-smoking property.

Despite telling them this at least 6 different times they continue to smoke on property and throw their cigarette butts out in the parking lot. I believe they try to mow the lawn too fast, resulting in an uneven cut, they don't seem to care they just want to come and go as quick as possible they are not detail oriented, and failed to take the proper care to leave the property looking good.

When it comes to snow they are the absolute worst They do not seem to have the systems and processes in place to make sure that they are out in a timely fashion that they get back to take care of what they didn't get the first time, they are terrible on ice management. Despite myself personally trying to talk to them, trying to talk to their management to talk to the people on the ground and trying to work through our management company here, the end result is they do not seem to be able to perform.

I would not recommend them for any multi-family or commercial property. They do not have the people, equipment, process and or procedure to be effective. These pictures were taken today on Friday, the snow storm that dropped the snow came on last Friday a week ago. They still have not been able to come and clean up, things were not working well, the association work with them in collaborative effort to make things work better, Barrett suggested changing how they approach the work, we as residents have changed what we do to accommodate their wishes and it is worse than it was before. I would not hire Barrett for any multi-family or commercial property.

It's been 2 weeks of various Barrett employees trying to figure out if they are or are not going to do a spring clean up and when. Seriously how difficult/complex is it to rake up some leaves? And their pricing is horrible! Quoted me +$500 to install 3 cu. yards of mulch. This is literally $36 in material. Terrible service and pricing. I actually fired them and had work accomplished by another contractor for a fraction of the price. DO NOT RECOMMEND this contractor!

I have nothing by great things to say about Barrett, there really is no comparison between the work you guys do. I think the processes Barrett uses are great, very informational, and helpful. I look forward to working with you in the future.

Thank you to you and your team for designing and installing the beautiful landscaping at our house. We really appreciate your flexibility on the installation schedule. The crew who came to our house was fantastic! They left the yard clean each day and were very patient with my kids who were incredibly interested in the machines and flagstone design.

I want to commend the fellows who worked so hard to correct our problem. The way they looked at what we needed and set about solving how to accomplish it is a true testament of their skills. They kept me in the loop on their progress and answered all questions. Thanks again for the good work.

My husband and I originally hired Barrett Lawn Care Inc. for the more typical residential lawn care needs (seeding, fertilizing, etc.). We then requested an estimate to have some landscaping done in the backyard. Eric Barrett himself came to our home to discuss our wants/needs. He was kind, professional and patient. He spent over an hour with my husband and I that first day.

After receiving other bids from different companies and after further discussion with Eric, we decided to hire Barrett for our backyard landscaping project. Eric was the only individual who actually met with us to discuss the project. The other companies had short conversations over the phone and (maybe) visited the house when my husband and I weren't home.

In the end, Barrett placed us on the schedule promptly and the work was done timely, but beautifully. The men who worked on our yard took care and pride with everything they did. They were careful to not disturb me, the house or other areas of the lawn they didn't work on. The design and the resulting look was just what we wanted and more. Barrett is competitively priced and spends more time with their customers than any other lawn care company I've worked with. I have and would highly recommend Barrett to friends and family. I also look forward to hiring them once again for our front yard curb appeal project! Thanks Barrett!

When the snow melted after closing on our new home, it uncover an over grown and outdated mess of a yard. We felt overwhelmed with where to begin so we called Barrett Lawn Care. Upon our first meeting with the owners, Eric and Laura, we felt confident we were in good hands. They reassured us that our yard had potential and our dream for a beautiful yard was achievable. Eric brought up creative ideas such as using existing boulders on our property to build a boulder wall to be incorporated in our front landscaping and using flagstone for a bench platform.

They quickly wrote up a detailed plan, we knew what to expect as far as cost and timeline. Eric helped us to choose plants that fit our request for low maintenance. He explained what, if any, upkeep would be needed for each plant and shared his knowledge around what to expect from each plant as far as blooming and hardiness. We were impressed with their attention to detail, efficiency, and thoughtfulness throughout our yard makeover. We are so happy with our finished projects and recommend Barrett Lawn Care to others who are looking for help with landscaping and lawn rehab.
