## The honest read

D & L Plant Care says it has provided lawn care, landscaping and tree care to homeowners in and around Norwalk, Wilton and Weston, CT since 1970. On HomeAdvisor it holds 4.6 stars from 21 ratings, and its BBB grade is A+.

A 2013 customer wrote that a huge tree came down across their driveway in a rainstorm, and Lou had his guys there within 45 minutes. A 2012 customer said a dying dogwood was removed from a small yard and everything was taken away. A 2013 reviewer described D&L trimming overgrown fruit trees and removing branches hanging on electrical wires, then cleaning up the yard. A 2014 customer said they called on a Saturday, the property was inspected by the next Monday, and the crew finished in under 45 minutes.

A 2011 customer said items were invoiced that were not on the estimate, such as the cost of the mulch. A 2015 customer who hired D&L to renovate parts of a lawn said treatments began late the next year and no proposal came for tree work they discussed with Lou.
