Paul & Dorothy Winberry, Forest Hill, MD
Great courteous service and attention to detail. Always a print out on the condition of the lawn after each application. Along with advice on how to maintain a healthier and greener lawn. Trained and knowledgeable staff!!
Pete Triantafilos
I have been with Pro Grass for 8 years. Value is excellent. Initially my lawn was a mess after we built on old farmland. Today the lawn is in superior condition across 2+ acres. Staff is professional – they do a nice methodical application even in hard to get to places. Despite weather patterns over the years they never seem to get “off cycle” with their applications – this is a good thing. I would, and have recommended them to others.
