Always called my clients who I referred them to and do a great job. The apartment building Rosehill manor looks great after they took care of it last year.

Called for an estimate for lawn renovation and a fair amount of landscaping in the back....was actually willing to spend several thou over a couple of years. Guess it wasn't super easy money or something because although they came and looked, never got back to me with a quotation, in spite of several requests. If they are this bad about obtaining new business, doesn't bode well for keeping appointments once they've been hired. I may have had a lucky escape.

We've been clients of Lush for over three years now for our lawn & property maintenance and our annual Christmas lights set-up. In our experience, they've created a combination that is very rare in any business - complete professionalism and a really genuine personal connection. Justin is an absolute pleasure to deal with. A real bright spot. We always look forward to our mowing days.
