Rated 4 out of 5 stars

I am happy with the LM that was planted and the overall service was good, the overall process was just a bit lacking in the communication department. Good service nonetheless.

Rated 4 out of 5 stars

Coordination of services

Coordination between preparing the area for the grass and the actual delivery should be improved. It was obvious that the grass rolls had been in the sun for a long time and a number of brown patched appeared in the grass.
The preparation of the area for the grass was done very satisfactory.

Not great service and inferior workmanship

Provided irrigation and LM lawn, the irrigation installation was atrocious! Half the pipework is exposed after less than a month and the LM grass is very patchy even after watering daily. Would definitely not use. Rather save you money Ang go elsewhere.

Poor communication

Work was scheduled from 10:00 - 11:45. The team arrived almost an hour after the deadline time. Even when I followed up by phone, they did not arrive at the revised time. Neither did the driver phoned me as promised by Jack.
I was not informed about any treatment/aftercare post installation of the grass.
1.Improve by being on time as agreed
2. Let the customer know in advance if you run late. Communicate.
3. Give advice regarding aftercare like:
a. How often to water the grass after planting.
b. When can the grass be cut for the first time.
c. How short to cut the grass
d. Must I apply fertilizer and which fertilizer

Overall awesome service

Order process fantastic. Payment process fantastic especially as you only pay on completion of the job.
Communication process not the best, could do better. The labourers were dropped off at around 09h30 but delivery of grass and compost only arrived after 17h00
