Customer Service utterly useless We live in the New Forest and have used them over the past 3 years. They tell us, invariably at short notice, that they are sending someone to provide a treatment that we have never requested, and when we tell them we don’t want it they reschedule the same treatment! At the moment in March they are trying to provide us with an Autumn feed for our lawn when we have repeatedly asked for moss killing and a spring feed with weedkiller. I just can’t stand this incompetence any longer.

REVIEW OF LAWN Dave and Lewis [ Maidstone Branch] under took their first visit of the year.It is the first time any firm has described in detail what was happening to the lawn in a very constructive pleasant manner.Also it was helpful to understand what to do and why. Talked in a knowledgeable and honest manner about the level of support that would be help. Good experience.

Sour taste Every appointment was rebooked, the cost went up before any improvement was seen, the front and middle lawns were in a worse condition after the last treatment, they had no solution to dogs using a lawn, and finally after we cancelled, my last chat with them was “ you will be reimbursed for any over payments” they called one time after that but I was busy and finally we got a rude e-mail today saying we actually owed £40 and they were taking us to court, we paid immediately, but it has left a sour taste. Read a gardening book and buy some weed and feed. It’s cheaper.

Costs versus Benefits I am a senior citizen and I have relied on Green Thumb for many years However, we have seen both foxes as well as badgers repeatedly destroy our lawn, even after expensive pest control treatments I could not recommend Green Thumb, if you live in a rural area where animals are likely to be present I have also paid for lawn scarifying to prevent the growth of moss but GT just bag the debris and leave the customer to dispose of the bags. Difficult for a senior citizen who is no longer driving! Ultimately the cost of the service far outweighed any visible benefits so I closed the account.

Great job by Darren! Darren came to do our Spring treatment this week. He has been to us a few times before and is always extremely friendly and does an amazingly professional job! All the staff at Green Thumb are so helpful and friendly and a real credit to the company!
