My neighbor has used Newell for the year. I have had to speak with Newell's crew leader four times now about driving their heavy machines across my (neighboring) lawn. After the last time (Sept '21) I added dirt and seed to repair the damage they caused. Came home yesterday and found new circles turned in my lawn by these guys. They don't care about quality in the least and have been very rude when told not to trespass. Lawn clippings left behind, mulch in the road, and an apparent disdain for anyone whom isn't a customer should be red flags if you are considering these folks.

In early spring, weeds were cut and sprayed and mulch brought in and spread. I waited to see how the mulch maintained. The mulch used was a new and better product and has done well to cover and stay in place.. The service is too pricey for my budget for further maintenance. They seem to have a big overhead to maintain but were very nice and quick to do the job and the yard looks nice.

We are the Newell client, who during the servicing of our lawn, the alleged Urination-gate incidents are said to have taken place. There seems to perhaps be a fine line between the first amendment right and willful, haphazard slander. Newell have been doing our lawn for years and Mark is one of the most professional, conscientious business owners we have met. Not surprisingly, he has a crew of professional, respectful men who work hard and would never do anything as disrespectful and ludicrous as they have been accused of. IF they were going to do something as outlandish as urinating in public

I was about to put my home up for sale but needed to do some landscaping to improve the yard for potential buyers. I was referred to Newells Lawn & Landscaping by a relative when I made a comment about how amazing their yard looked and that I needed a good and reliable landscaper to spruce up my yard for my house I was about to sell. So, I called them up, and Mr. Newell and his team came out, gave me a very reasonable estimate, and did a FANTASTIC job on my yard and garden. I will certainly be using them on a regular basis for my new house. Great job gentleman, and thank you for all your hard
