Choosing the best lawn care company for your Flower Mound, Highland Village, or Lewisville, TX home is no simple task given the abundance of choices we have here in the North Texas area. But you want to have the best lawn on the block, you know that your choice can make a big difference.
The best way to narrow down your options is to compare companies side-by-side. It can be time-consuming, but it’s a way to see how one company stacks up against another.
In this article, we’re looking at ABC Home & Commercial Services vs. Grassperson.
ABC Home & Commercial Services is a Dallas-based company offering a wide variety of services. This includes not only lawn care and landscaping but also AC and heating services, pest and rodent control, pool services, commercial services, and also general “handyman” services (like carpentry, painting, and more). One of the biggest differences between Grassperson and ABC is the sheer number of services that they delve into.
But another big difference is their size. ABC has branches not only throughout Texas but even out of state. They have an Orlando, Florida branch and an Oklahoma City, Oklahoma branch listed on their website. At Grassperson, we only work in the North Texas area.
That being said, this company undoubtedly has a long history in the region and got its start here. They have been serving Texas since 1949. The company is currently owned by Dennis Jenkins who, on the website, says he remembers his father purchasing ABC Pest Control in 1965. Today, the company has gotten involved in a variety of services beyond pest control.
We’ve already talked about how ABC Homes & Commercial Services Dallas has a fairly expansive list of services that they offer. At Grassperson, we are a bit more specialized. We offer Lawn Care, Landscape Maintenance, Landscape Installation, Irrigation Repair, and Outddor Lighting.
Let’s compare the lawn care services of ABC Homes & Commercial Services Dallas to Grassperson since these are the services where we’d go head-to-head.
On their website, ABC lists out the following “lawn care services:” mowing, fertilization, weed control, insect and disease control, and core aeration. They also offer landscaping installation services and sprinkler repair and inspections. However, there is no explanation for how these services fit into a program.
That admittedly makes it difficult to compare. While something like the number of lawn care visits does not matter as much as whether the right treatments are being performed at the right times, it’s still hard to know exactly what ABC Homes & Commercial Services offers in terms of a program. It could be that everything is a la carte (where you are charged for each service and you add what you want) but we aren’t certain.
Grassperson, on the other hand, has 3 defined program options with transparent pricing and information on what’s included.
Besides looking at programs and services side-by-side, another way to compare companies is to look at what others have to say. Online reviews are a great way to get a sense of what other customers (both current and previous) think of a company.
When someone leaves an online review, they have the chance to not only provide a rating on a 5-star scale but to leave some comments about their experience. We would advise taking some time to read these as it really does shed light on what the company is all about.
As you look at companies and their reviews, try to narrow it down to those with a 4.5 or higher as these are going to be the stand-out, best companies out there. Keep in mind that not only the number of stars but the number of reviewers matters. It is more difficult to maintain a high star rating when you have a large number of reviewers.
4.9-stars based on 327 reviews
4.8-stars based on 976 reviews
There is no denying that ABC Homes & Commercial Services Dallas has outstanding reviews and we commend them for that. It means they are doing a great job in the community. In the big picture, that helps our industry as a whole. We want to compete against the best of the best and ABC Home is clearly the cream of the crop.
Let us come right out and say that ABC Homes & Commercial Services Dallas is a formidable company. We think they’re doing a lot of great work in the community.
However, we also feel that they may not be the right fit for everyone. At Grassperson, we are more specialized in really focusing on our customers’ properties. We don’t get into doing painting or handyman work. We don’t do pools or AC and heating.
We are strongly focused on anything that goes into giving our clients’ the best property on the block.
Because we’re so focused on that, we’re really committed to hiring highly skilled individuals who know what it takes to deliver on our promises. That means lawn care technicians who are knowledgeable and true experts in the type of work that they do.
Along with that, we are also a local company. We live and work here, just like you. We do not have multiple branches or get into doing any work out of state. That allows us to really know the North Texas region and what it takes to produce the best results here.
In the end, we can’t deny that ABC Homes & Commercial Services Dallas might make a great company for some people. But we also know there are some homeowners out there who are really serious about getting amazing results—and those are the people who will love working with Grassperson.
Ultimately, the choice is yours and we want you to be happy. After all the research you’ve done to choose wisely, we believe you deserve to be thrilled with the results.
