## The honest read

Hands on Landscaping holds a 4.4-star Google average from 14 ratings, and its written history on Google runs from 2021 to 2024.

A 2022 customer said they hired the company for a spring cleanup, kept using it afterward, and referred it to two neighbors. A 2021 customer hired the team for leaf cleanup and removal and said there wasn't a single leaf left in the yard. A 2022 customer said they consulted with Xavier about what needed to be done and he delivered, on time and with the job complete. A 2022 customer said the company was always on time and talked through what was best for the upkeep of the yard. A 2022 customer called the service reasonably priced.

A 2024 customer said they made an agreement for bimonthly lawn cutting, but the company did not show or call on the scheduled day, rescheduled without notice, did not show again and did not answer about 7 calls. A 2024 customer said the company did not show up for scheduled jobs, did not answer phone calls and charged a card for work not completed.

**Strengths:**
- A spring cleanup — a 2022 customer kept using them and referred two neighbors
- Leaf cleanup — a 2021 customer said not a single leaf was left
- On-time service — a 2022 customer said they were always on time

**Concerns:**
