What Our Customers Are Saying
Our lawn was mostly clover , quack grass, and dandelions. I’d like to thank Tompkins for a job well done. We now have a beautiful lawn that we can enjoy. I would recommend them to anyone that is in need of lawn care.

The owner Kevin cares. Period. He always answers quickly to questions and his people do a great job on my lawn. I've had other services in the past but I can tell the products he uses are superior.

Tompkins has provided lawn care services for my business for the past two years. They have been very consistent and our grounds are always kept up. The guys do a great job of being respectful of our guests and vehicles when they are working on the property.

The team at Tompkins is very responsive, helpful, and quite caring. Simple questions that I've presented in attempt to learn how to care for my yard have been met with detailed instructions and advice. The service they've performed has been great. They are a professional organization in a industry where maybe that's not so common.

We have used Tompkins for over 10 years now and even asked them to move to our new house to continue the service. We love them because they're local, they have committed employees and they're always receptive to my needs as well as questions anytime they come for service. They not only have helped me with our lawn needs, but snow removal needs as well. Just all around great to work with.

This was our first year using Tompkins Lawn Care and we are so happy with their service. I wish I had taken before and after pictures but the change in our lawn was huge. Goodbye to the weeds and creeping Charlie, hello to healthy thick grass. The workers were very friendly and helpful, even volunteering to blow my last area of leaves. I would highly recommend this company.

Tompkins was referred to me for lawn service by one of my friends. Kevin responds to my query/questions and provides lawn care options and proposal in a very quick and professional way. Within 30 mins we reached an agreement and the yard work was planned already. I trust Tompkins a local lawn company to provide the lawn service and am looking forward to the health, beauty, and sustainability of my turf.

Kevin in extremely knowledgeable and gives timely and extensive feedback when consulted. His programs include minimal weed spraying, but instead promote fertilizing for a more lush lawn. This ecological approach really spoke to me. Like many midwesterners, I like my nice green lawn but don't like chemicals. The difference in our lawn in one year is remarkable! I highly recommend Tompkins Lawn Care.

I appreciated that he spent time helping me understand more about keeping lawns healthy - and mine in particular. I appreciate his common sense approach and the options available for using organic products. Kevin’s service and his crew were prompt and professional. I look forward to having Tompkins Lawn Care bring my yard back to health and then helping me keep it healthy in the future. Thanks Kevin and crew!

I am so very pleased with the service and outcome of this business. With the help of occasional light watering during this awful drought, my lawn somehow looks amazing, drastically different from many in the neighborhood. I especially appreciate that they give us a heads up to keep the pets inside. And when I had significant questions upon first signing up, the owner spent nearly an hour on the phone with me. Any questions I've sent via email have also been addressed in a timely and informative way. Just as he promised, the thick, healthy lawn we've been working toward seems to be the best tool in combating weeds.

This is a first rate lawn and landscape company. It's locally owned and the employees are full-time, knowledgeable professionals. That makes a big difference. Over the last several years, I have hired Tompkins for all of my routine lawn feedings and aeration, occasional help with lawn maintenance and snow removal, and several bigger residential landscaping jobs. The results are consistently excellent. I especially appreciate that they warmly and patiently advise me on my lawn and landscaping/plantings!

After trying two different lawn care companies over the past 6 years, Tomkins was referred to me by a friend. We started using them first thing this year, and the level of care they take in our undulating lawn to ensure no scalping, etc. is impressive. I'm leaving this review today because, after a mow, I received an email to let me know that there may be an issue with our irrigation system as there was excess water on the lawn. While there was no issue, I really appreciate the customer service and attention to detail of the entire team to make sure we're being well taken care of. I strongly recommend their services.

Tompkins Lawn Care has been phenomenal to work with. Professional, responsive, educational and they have my yard looking the best it has ever looked!!!
Kevin, the owner, cares a great deal and that is passed to his team. I have never used a lawn service before but everyone on the block is asking what happened and how it happened so fast. The results are incredible!!

After several years with TLC, I have never been more convinced that quality products and services matter when working to make your lawn immaculate. We had major issues with my lawn, TLC stepped in, diagnosed our issues and explained their approach. Compared with the "name brands" out there, that are about volume and low prices, I knew I needed professionals. I was referred to TLC by the sod company who installed my lawn a few years prior. It was evident on the first call they were great at their craft. The level of education provided me and the time he committed to teaching me was immeasurable.
The saying of you get what you pay for stands true with TLC. Don’t be taken by those that hire the cheapest labor and use inferior products. Invest in a true professional that will take care of your lawn as if it were his own.
Give him a call. It will be worth your time. They are the best, Period!!!

Exceptional Service from Kevin at Tompkins Lawn Care, Inc.
Kevin is incredibly knowledgeable and thorough when it comes to lawn care. My girlfriend needed someone to fertilize her lawn—something that hadn’t been done in years—in hopes of bringing it back to life. Tompkins Lawn Care, Inc. was the first place I called, and I couldn’t be more impressed.
Kevin spent 15–20 minutes educating me on the fertilization process, seeding, how Mother Nature impacts the lawn, when to aerate, and more. He explained everything in great detail and answered all my questions, even when I wasn’t sure how to articulate them properly.
Beyond his expertise, Kevin took the time to ask thoughtful, open-ended questions to get to know me. Our conversation was easygoing, and he made me feel completely comfortable throughout. At no point did he try to sell me on anything or pressure me into signing up. After our discussion, I asked for a quote, which he promptly sent over for my girlfriend to review. She was just as impressed, and this morning, I called Kevin back to book his services.
It’s rare to find someone so passionate and knowledgeable about what they do. Kevin truly went above and beyond to earn our business, and his no-pressure approach made all the difference. If you’re looking for an expert who genuinely cares about helping you achieve a healthier lawn, do yourself a favor and call Kevin at Tompkins Lawn Care, Inc.
I’ll update this post with before-and-after photos soon. Thanks again, Kevin!
