  7. Very professional company that does very high quality work my yard looked really bad until I hired them to take care of it now my yard looks amazing after just 2 years of service

  8. Mike M. is very friendly, and helpful in discussing the options of improving our irrigation. I can tell he has our interests in mind, rather than just selling services.

  9. When we order a spray, or treatment they are out by the next day. Prompt and thorough attention to detail. I have referred them to several friends. Thanks A+

  10. They miss alot of area they get paid to do and than you call them they say we will be out to take care of it and nobody shows up than you call again and no answer. Very over rated

  11. This company truly should change their name to A++ Lawn and Landscaping, I was shocked at how amazing of a job they did on my new home! They’ve secured my business for life, highly recommend!

  13. We had A+ fix up our lawn turning it into a green lawn! When they came along our lawn has never looked so good! Having their services keeping our lawn striped and green is amazing!

  14. you guys claim to be A+ service but charge people when you don’t even come out and do the services you have us pay you for… we call you several times without call back! as well as the fact that you once again claim to be A+ service yet can’t identify bunny holes and end up killing them!!!! i advise you to educate your employees

  15. Highly disappointed in Aaron Darr for dropping the ball on a simple edging project. Two times this summer I requested edging to be done at my home. The first time I made multiple calls before the crew made it out. The second time (after contacting them twice and waiting over 3 weeks) they just didn’t make it at all.

  16. So far service has been excellent. I have a weed problem and my treatments have helped. The employees I have had contact with have all be courteous and knowledgeable. I would recommend A+ to anyone.

  19. Great prices and service. I have the best looking lawn on my street. I use the sharp and lube service yearly. Staff are friendly and knowledgeable.

  20. These guys take care of the lawn in our apartment complex. They’re not very friendly. Today I got to listen to one of your employees loudly mock young children that are at the daycare across the street as I waited for my kids at the bus stop. Very classy.

  21. I had a mole problem and my yard just a mess from that little bugger. I called A+ and they were they only ones who would come out to my little town to deal with the mole. The mole is gone now and my yard is back to its normal self. I will definitely use them in the future for more lawn care needs.

  33. I would give them a zero if I could. They can’t seem to hire anyone with anything between their ears. No matter how many times you complain or they have to replace windows, they still do the same stuff. I take pride in my vehicle, and to …

  50. Avoid this company if you want good services. People who answer the phone are good but those who perform the services do not care. The owner responded only when I wanted to cancel the services yet he failed to follow up on what he promised.

  51. I switched to A+ 2 seasons ago. Since switching my lawn has improved greatly. A+ gave me some alternatives to traditional lawn care that seems to be working. I highly recommend speaking to one of their managers to get their advise.

  55. We had A+ plant a tree in our son’s front yard as a housewarming present.

  140. We have owned our home in Ames for nearly 4 years and this is the first year that lawn care has not been a hassle! We made one payment and Shawn’s crew took care of everything else. The best part of their service (other than their …

  141. I have been using A+ for a total of 3 applications of fertilizer and weed control and an aeration and over-seeding. Ray has turned my lawn around already! My back lawn has nice thick grass after being nearly bare and it’s nice and green. Weeds have turned nicely also. I highly recommend this company!

  142. We have dealt with this company for several years and have always been more than satisfied. Their service is good and the techs sent to inspect my irrigation system are always well informed and helpful. Recently, Chuancey inspected our …

  143. Overall awful experience on more than one account.
    First visit to turn on our sprinklers and they were not aligned properly. Called to have it serviced and they said it was not their fault and that our lawn …

  144. They were supposed to aerate and seed our yard and they did not do the backyard. We were told a manager would come check it out and that manager said it was clear they didn’t do the backyard so they would do it and reseed since none of the …

  145. The gentlemen that came out and tested the irrigation system were awesome. They were knowledgable and friendly. The reason for 1 star is that I had to call A+ lawn customer service 4 times to get the test result given to my city to prevent …

  146. I dont know who is driving your van this morning the speed limit on Euclid is 35 not 55 they were headed east flying down euclid and almost jumped the curb. So u may wanna warn your drivers to slow down

  147. Let me describe how A+ handles a problem and why I am a satisfied customer.

    Last year A+ came out to repair our irrigation system after giving an estimate. …

  148. A+ has been one of the best companies that I have ever worked with. The work is high quality and they are extremely careful around certain things. We have a sprinkler system that has many heads that pop out from time to time and their precision when working around those is a big plus. Would highly recommend to anyone!

  149. The snow crew at Keo and Crocker St. Don’t know what there doing. Don’t know how to clear sidewalks to the street. Leave big snow hills for people to climb or walk in the roadway til you get to the driveway. Then when you get to the end of …

  150. The crew was here to do landscaping by removing some thin grass and replacing it with river rock. They also replaced some large flagstones. The entire crew was excellent! They were all very friendly and answered my questions and concerns …

  151. I was a fan and loyal customer for years. Then I messaged and told them not to spray my wife’s plants but they did twice and killed them. I cancelled service, and the owner offered to replant what they destroyed. He never followed through. …

  152. A+ has turned my yard completely around! New build/fresh sod a few years ago and it really didn’t take off too well. My yard is really hilly front to back so I know it’s tough to keep moisture on. I tried a couple other expensive …

  153. We use A+ for everything. We were so pleased with the front landscape that we had them create our dream backyard. They came in under budget and with days to spare. They turned our overgrown lettuce patch into a beautiful oasis that we’re …

  154. So we used this company for irrigation and it had been a disaster. The technician had NO IDEA what was going on. He was in our crawl space pulling valves and didn’t know what he was pulling. We have since had CRAZY HIGH WATER WORKS BILLS …

  155. A+ Lawn is the best! I used to feel like Pigpen from Charlie Brown when I mowed my lawn because it was so sparse and I was mowing in a cloud of dust. I spent a lot of time, money and energy trying to bring it back myself to no avail. I …

  156. I switched to A+ this spring after 5 years with another Ankeny company due to to cost. Well I learned you get what you pay for! My lawn is full of weeds now that were not a problem while using the previous company the last 5 years. They …

  157. I’ve been a customer for four years. On April 6 I called to schedule my annual sharp and lube. The woman scheduled my appointment for April 29. She also mentioned that last year they billed me for a lawn tractor instead of my lawn mower so …

  158. Decided to try A+ when they purchased my former lawn care provider. My spring lawn previously was always lush and green. After A+’s first application my lawn is now yellow-green and brown. Looks like fertilizer burn to me. Called to …

  159. Never got there to buy anything. Wanted a tree or 2. But all those I talked to on the phone were very nice and helpful. Returned a call on a sat morning. I missed it, but showed they were very reliable ppl. Will certainly give them my …

  160. We have been using A+ for our lawn care and sprinkler services for several years. They have always been very friendly, knowledgable and reliable. They email and call ahead to let us know they are coming. Our lawn looks great and if we …

  161. Go with another company! This is my first ever 1 star google review, which is saying a lot. I shouldn’t have to come on here and write a review for how unprofessional this company is. The only positives were the phone receptionists who …

  162. This is the most horrible company I’ve ever dealt with. Terrible customer service. Every time they came by (without notice) they would leave our gate open and spray all the dog supplies we have in the backyard. I called numerous times and …

  163. We live in Urbandale. We had maintenance contract with A+. After aerating several months back, A+ personnel damaged our iron fence gate. The management at A+ assured us they would pay for damage. We had damage repaired promptly and …

  164. A+ Lawn & Landscape has provided services to me for several years, and because of their excellent service, I have recommended them to my neighbors who have also had great experiences!

  165. We use A+ for lawn fertilizer and pest control. They also installed our irrigation system. Most recently we had them do a landscaping project. Rob Owen designed a fabulous layout. His crew was so efficient and courteous. We are very pleased with their services.

  166. We have a lot of plants/trees and we were just in need of some weed control and fertilization. They were very helpful and did a great job. A plus lawn technician was very knowledgeable and took time to understand my concerns and …

  167. I contacted A+ at the beginning of September along with a few other companies regarding aeration and overseeding services. The first time I tried, I was disconnected. I tried again later and worked with Koty to get a quote. He provided an …

  168. Poor customer service. Had a horrible experience and they fried our grass. They just tried to get the number of services in for the year with no consideration for the lawn condition. After telling them how unhappy we were with their service …

  169. We chose A+ based on the stellar reviews and their one-stop-shop capability (lawn maintenance, irrigation systems, outdoor lighting, and landscape design), but we were disappointed with the services almost since day one. The primary issue …

  170. I signed up and prepaid for all services in 2020 and the company did fine. Unfortunately this year is a different story. Their price this year was incredibly high so i went with another company. They proceeded to spray my yard without any …

  171. Had a new system installed. Nate and his entire team were professional and respectful of the property and did a great job during install. Highly recommend if your are looking to get an irrigation system for your residence. Looking forward to next spring and summer to getting my yard looking amazing.

  172. A+ is over priced and has lousy customer service. Call someone else. A+ bought out the company I had been using for a few years. I called and asked A+ to schedule an appointment telling the I was a customer of the company they just …

  173. They helped with the maintenance of my sprinkler system and did a great job. They came back to help fix one of the sprinkler heads when I needed them. Highly recommended!

  174. Had A+ out for our annual backflow inspection for our irrigation system. We have had them out numerous times before but this time the technician went on an on about things that were “not up to code”. Say what? How come no one has …

  175. A+ gave us an estimate which we liked and agreed to. They (the crew) showed up on time worked very hard and got the job done. Afterwards they returned the next day and finished. Travis and Kara were on top of every aspect and were detailed …

  176. Been using A+ for a few years but no longer. A service tech showed up to my house to fertilize my trees that we did not request, after a couple calls to the office this was resolved without us paying. I received a text message about a …

  177. I had Dave come out and he did a repair on my crushed pipe and torn wire for my irrigation system that was done by American Fencing company when they put in my fence this past winter and Dave was awesome! Very professional and experienced, …

  178. Be Careful! When contracting with A+, make very sure that the scope of the work you are requesting is put into writing and that all expectations of said work are clearly spelled out and agreed upon. …

  179. I have never been the type to complain, or write reviews, however, I feel obligated to. I have used A+ since building our home 2 years ago. After our first year of services (last spring) I called and wanted to talk to a sales person about …

  180. Not happy. A number of problems. 3 hours late and no phone call. Received a survey from the company and let them know all the issues and never received a response. Waited a few days and asked if they would respond but they never did

  181. A+ was to aerate the lawn the next street down, but did mine instead. They broke my underground fence (and my neighbor’s) and damaged a sprinkler head. I have called them four times thus far and they’ve yet to return my call. I can’t let me dogs out without watching them. Total clown show!

  182. I am trying to get the service completed, but it is been already 2 months since I got the person and received the estimatation. Since that I can’t get anyone to do my yard. Call them almost every day with no response.

  183. EDIT: One of the owners did contact me the same day I posted this review. He was very apologetic and responsive. He did call me and email me and everything has been reconciled with my account. I have updated my rating, due to his quick …

  184. Extremely unresponsive. I asked twice to have a lawn evaluation done as a current customer, who is concerned with their lawn. They blew me off the first time and didn’t even come out. The second time they came out but won’t return my …

  185. The quality of service is not what it used to be. I’m a long-time customer, a good 5 years. Pre-pandemic, they were reliable, came out timely, my yard looked great and they helped restore it from the very poor state it was in after the sod …

  186. Has a great experience the other day with A+. Our new home has a irrigation system already installed and we knew nothing about how it worked. They came in and tested our backflow and sent the info to the city that is required yearly. Then …

  187. I had A+ lawn service come and do an lube and blade sharpening on my mower. This job includes oil change, oil filter replacement, tire pressure, deck cleaning, engine cleaning and also greasing of all moving parts. They came out and left me …

  188. We use A+ Lawn & Landscape yearly for our yard maintenance which would include weed control and fertilizer. Our yard looks great. We also have them come about every other year to have my push lawn mower maintained. They do it right in the …

  189. these people have run over every gutter downspout in my town home community.. how hard is it to tilt the downspouts up before running over them? These homes are only a few years old.. have a little respect for our investment. Not to mention …

  190. A+ did a great job with this tiered wall project. They communicated well throughout the process. They used the highest quality materials to ensure this lasts a lifetime. They completed this job in less than two days which was impressive. Great job by the crew, highly recommended them for any landscape project.

  191. My lawn looked terrible prior to working with A+ due to poorly installed sod. Since working with A+ my lawn has improved at least 60%. They are always responsive to any needs I may have.

  192. I have used this business for 4 years regarding my irrigation system. This summer I had an Irrigation leak,. it took them over a month to fix, 8 different people only 3 worked on it,. super slow, inexperance. help. many promises not kept. I now have another irrigation company

  193. We had Caleb come out and do an winterization of our irrigation system. He was fantastic, friendly, knowledgeable, and took his time to figure out our system. Will definitely use again!

  194. Watch out for their bright green trucks in town. They’ll run you right off the road. Speeding, swerving in and out of lanes without using a blinker, and pushed me out of my lane. What a great image for your company.

  195. Quality of job is good but customer service is severely lacking. Company billed me for a service I did not request and then automatically charged my card without permission. Three months later and I’m still waiting for a refund and after several attempts still have not had phone calls returned.

  196. I’ve used A+ the past two summers and in that time their team has repeatedly ruined plants and bushes in my yard. They also used my neighbors lawn to access parts of my lawn I’ve repeated told them not to. In the process they ruined …

  197. Our lawn has never looked worse than it does now. We have used A+ for 2 years and have had major weed issues and may bare spots. They completely missed treating an entire area of our lawn even after I called to let them know that the side …

  198. They do a great job fertilizering and doing weed control in my yard.
    The person who did the work always goes beyond my expectations.
    A great company and I would recommend them for your yard care.

  199. My yard looks worse than it ever has in the 4 years I’ve owned my home. At the end of summer, I have more weeds than it’s ever had. I’d laugh if I wasn’t so mad that I paid hundreds of dollars to them with little to no results. My newly …

  200. DO NOT USE THEIR SHARP & LUBE SERVICE FOR YOUR MOWER. They messed up my mower. Took hours for them to call me back and fix the issue. Their lawn service is fine which is why I am going with 3 stars. (See edit) …

  201. We were scheduled for irrigation shut down on 9/28. A technician came but zone 1 and 2 couldn’t opened and he didn’t know why. Nate, the manager, was supposed to came on the following Monday but he was a no show. We called back and got …

  202. By far the worst company I could have chosen to install my sprinkler system. Save your money and go elsewhere. None of my neighbors will be using A+. It’s been months since the system was installed incorrectly and it still doesn’t work as …

  203. Cody was very flexible and remained responsive throughout our wait for the landscaping install, during the install and for questions / concerns following the install. …

  204. My biggest issue is a lack of communication. They came out to do a mid season irrigation check to make sure each area of my lawn was getting the water that it needed. Once I let them in the garage to get to the controls they never spoke …

  205. Have had treatments for about 5 months now. Have had to call them out for retreats as we learned they weren’t doing the whole yard. 5 months later my yard is still covered in weeds and they have killed my bushes and peonies with overspray. …

  206. This is literally the worst lawn care company in town. They are too corporate and do not care about the customer. They ruined my neighbors yard, they ruined my parents yard and they did a terrible job on the services I paid for. They also …

  207. I contacted A+ lawn care which we actually previously in the last two years of done business with regarding our pond. It took them three weeks to return a phone call when I followed up twice actually about just speaking to them. …

  208. As a sponsor of Cyclone Fanatic, I reached out to A+ Lawn and Landscape for lawn care. They came out and sprayed for weeds. That was fine. When they brought out the aerator, it tore up the lawn (big chunks of grass/sod ripped out). They …
