    We’ve been using Custom Lawn for years and have been happy with their service. Zach did a great job inspecting and adjusting our sprinkler system. He took time to make sure all areas of the lawn were covered, and he even found a couple of sprinklers that were overgrown and not raising. He was very helpful and knowledgeable.

We are very happy with their service, especially with Cole's attention to detail and thorough way he advises us on what to do next with our lawn.

    Conor Rutherford with Custom Lawn and Landscape has given me excellent customer service. He let me know by emails and texts specifically what lawn application he would be doing and what date he would do it. He worked with me when I had a concern about the time he was going to do it. I received a summary report after the application was done and instructions for what I should do. His customer service this year has exceeded my expectations and I know I can always contact him directly if I need something later.
    Custom came out to mulch a few landscaping beds and Christian did a great job, he cleaned up the beds and everything looked good when he was done. About a year ago I decided to simplify the maintenance around the yard. I had three different companies handling things. I chose to have Custom handle everything and Christian again showed it to be the right choice
    Shawn has always performed great service with our Lawn …. I get many compliments from our neighbors. He always lets me know in advance he is coming & after he has completed his treatment.
    Definitely recommend Shawn.
    They always let us know when they're coming and give a nice report on the lawn status. Definitely makes the yard a lot better than the years when we did nothing or tried to do it ourselves.

    Robby was an excellent worker, very knowledgeable, and fun to converse with. I'll ask for him again!
    For spring 2026, I chose a new company to set my sprinklers. Custom lawn & landscape sent Chad Wallace. Chad took care of me. He called to let me know he was on his way. He addressed one head that was no longer needed due to some deck work. And he smiled. Thank you Chad.
    They are professional and do a great job
    Shawn did a great job of helping me understand the process of the custom green lawn program I signed up for. My lawn looks great and I’m really happy with Shawn!
