We first hired Speake Lawn Care take care for a simple landscape enhancement project. They did extremely well and completed the project on time and on budget. We were so pleased we kept adding additional services. I know it was springtime at the height of their busy season but they continued to excel and deliver great results! John Speake introduced us to one of his teammates Ivy. He was instrumental with doing some major and minor repairs to my parents house which were long overdue and much needed. Ivy was brilliant with the way he was able to solve the issues and discover ways to fix problems that no one else was able to. Speak Lawn Care we're great communicators before, during and after the project. Typically contractors are not good communicators. But these guys were able to communicate both great ideas/ solutions for issues that would pop up from time to time. In the end, my parents house turned out great and I attribute that success to John Speake and his team. I would highly recommend hiring them for your project.Posted onkris graves2025-05-08Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google.
