Report
I woke up on Sunday all ready to cut the grass until I could not get my mower to work. My grass was already too high! I also take care of my elderly next door neighbors lawn and hers was also in need of mowing. I called upscale and talked to Chris the owner. Not only was he nice enough to take time out of his day on a Sunday but he also had his crew to my house Monday morning. He did a great job cutting our lawn and the neighbors! I couldn't be happier with the prompt, professional and friendly service we received! I would definitely recommend upscale lawncare to anyone looking for top notch quality work! Thanks again!
