Rutland Turfcare & Pest Control

I’ve been hiring a few of the lawn doctors in a box and a small local firm all of which I eventually fired for years. They all had same mentality of spray and leave. They all promised free immediate retreatments but they all just waited until the next service. I forget how I connected up with Rutland but I’m glad I did. This spring my lawn looked meh. A product of last year’s attempt by another company I gave 2 years to get it right. The season was going to be pretty bad I knew bc Grafton instituted a water ban for 2025, Grrrr. I discussed it with Rutland and was mostly concerned that weeds would overrun my yard because unwatered lawns are a haven for weeds. But they assured me they would come anytime weeds got out of control. Needless to say I’ve heard that before! So spring came

Finding a knowledgeable, reliable and honest fert company is difficult. I've tried many and either the tech doesn't know much, they miss spots because they go too fast or possibly even "ghost" you (leave the bill and skip the service if you're not home. James at Rutland is a gem! He knows what he's doing, is meticulous and always shows up when he's supposed to. After so many years of trying so many other companies that disappoint, I'm extremely happy with Rutland Turf!! Oh, also a shout out to Cocoa McGovern in sales. No BS, she knows her products and services and Rutland has delivered on all of her promises. Thank you!

We had Rutland for all of 2024. Their responsiveness was OK and the weeds in our yard became significantly worse over the year. We “fired” them for 2025 and they sent a tech for a spring service. Saw it on the ring and called to have them cancel, as they were not our provider. Not only did they fertilizer burn our yard, when we refused to pay for the service we never asked for they sent us to collections. Cannot strongly enough caution against working with them. Not great work and apparently quite dishonest. Attached are a few 2024 pictures of what the yard looked like under their care, which I had sent to them to ask for them to correct/address

I can’t say enough good things about Rutland Turf! Our lawn has NEVER looked better. It’s thick, green, and healthy. Their treatments are personalized to our yard not just a one-size-fits-all approach. I can’t recommend them enough. They even send out people to check on how our lawn is doing with the treatments to see if they should change anything. They make recommendations and suggest products, but there is no high-pressure sales involved. If I say no, that’s it end of conversation I highly recommend them. Hands down the best decision I’ve made!

I had used another local, qualified service for several years. The results were good but began to wane in the last two years. Moreover, the price had increased dramatically. I appreciate that the cost of chemicals used has increased, but the service price increases were more substantial. I contacted Rutland, who immediately responded, gave me much better pricing and guaranteed my satisfaction. Well, of course, most prospective new customers are guaranteed satisfaction. After a full season of service, I can attest, RUTLAND WAS TRUE TO THEIR WORD. My lawn is better now than a year ago. I asked for a couple call backs for spot weed treatment, and it was immediately done. I could not be more pleased and recommend Rutland highly.
