What recent reviews say

On landscape and hardscape projects, Clean Scapes delivers polished work with skilled design and careful attention to finish. However, multiple reviewers report unsafe driving by company vehicles, noise nuisance from early-morning equipment use, and allegations that tree crews over-prune trees unnecessarily or without adequate explanation. One reviewer also reported illegal dumping, and follow-up on safety complaints has been slow or absent.

Recent shift: Complaint volume has remained high across the past year, with recent reports of unsafe driving (within the past month) alongside earlier reports of tree practices and noise issues. No clear improvement trend evident in the review timeline.

Adam's Lawn Service Austin

4.5(96)✓ Verified

Adam's crew handles jobs fast and communicates well, often showing up same-day or within days of booking. Most reviewers praise the reasonable rates, professional manner, and clean finishes on lawn installations, mowing, weed removal, and hardscaping. A scheduling miscommunication and incomplete weed removal on one job (weeds left with roots, promised spraying not done, $300 charge) signal occasional gaps in scope clarity. For straightforward jobs, the team delivers reliably; larger projects may benefit from a detailed written scope upfront.
