Compton Lawn Care - Swansea, Illinois

Jason and his team did an outstanding job on our property. We just had a massive rain and hail storm, and the drainage worked wonderfully! We used Angi’s list to get in contact with him and we could not be happier. He’s responsive to text and phone calls. His team is professional. We hope to use him for all future yard projects

Jason and his workers did an amazing job with redoing our patio. It was the hottest (100+ degree)days and he made sure the job was completed with great detail.
Really nice, understanding and cool dude! It was a pleasure to work with him. We recommend him highly.

We switched to Compton early in the summer because I didn't feel like I had the ability to get our lawn to a really nice and lush state. There were some spots of crabgrass and some others I couldn't identify, so we figured we'd go to the professionals to take care of it.

They were consistent and nice, definitely made us feel like they were there for us until there were problems.
After treatment our lawn pretty much died. Three big spots in the front yard and the entire backyard looked like a desert. I tried to seed and they did, but the chemicals wouldn't allow for much new growth at all.
They said they'd have to wait for the fall to aerate and seed, which is reasonable. We didn't have much choice.
This was back in maybe June this year (2021).
Well, while we were still trying to get seed to grow back in early July, their mowers went into the backyard to mow (they were told not to because of the seed) and threw up a rock into our storm door, shattering it and spewing glass all over the backyard. They cleaned up the glass pretty well, ordered a replacement for it, but it wasn't the right size, so it was in place but wobbles and shakes every time you open or close the door. They wouldn't hire a professional to install it, so we had to rely on them to come by when they could to try it, but it never worked properly. Compton was going to order another and work on it.
It's Oct 29 (it was broken in early July), and we've decided to just order and have a new storm door installed because we're sick of waiting as we have two dogs and cats that stay inside, so this is really a pain. We're replacing the door at our own expense.
As to the yard, it's still pretty terrible, and the owner agreed to aerate and seed this fall, but now says he's going to charge us for it.
We're done. We wouldn't recommend these guys to anyone. I gave them two stars only because they seemed to try at first and they were consistent, but in the end they really didn't care about what they did to us or our yard.
The owner wants his piece of glass back, of course.

The pictures attached:
The nice one. That's our yard with some weeds growing before they started working with us.
The rest are some recent ones we sent them as a, "hey, are you kidding? you guys killed our yard!"
Another from today (Oct 29, 2021).
Oh yes, the owner actually blamed our dogs for the condition of the backyard. The same dogs we had in the before and after pictures.

Compton Lawn Care is who you want for your lawn care and Landscape needs. Jason and his crew go above and beyond to make the customer happy. My paver patio that they installed was exactly what I envisioned for my backyard. Their bid was reasonable and done in a timely manner and I couldn’t be more pleased. I love supporting a local business owner and they did not disappoint!

We switched to Compton Lawn Care for our mowing when our previous provider wouldn't do the job we hired them for. He cut everything perfect and cleaned up the yard nicely. We were very satisfied with the service and will switch out lawn care (fertilizer, weed management, etc) to him this year as well.

Jason and his crew addressed a very stressful yard drainage situation we were having. His prices are fair, his work is excellent, and as a result, our overall experience was outstanding.

Called and spoke to, I believe was the owner. Asked if he could cut my lawn, I'm a senior citizen. He said he would be in my area. I called three or four times to see if he was coming or not. NOT ONE call back. Shame on you, I waited for a call either way. My grass in the back is so high. No way to run a business, but I guess you have enough customers, one does not matter.

Jason and his crew are amazing. They are fast, dependable, and easy to work with. Going on 4 years now and wouldn't is anyone else.
