Been with this company for 8 plus years- never a problem, grass is green, well maintained by them, always getting compliments.

These people don't know what they are doing. I called last week to hire for a mowing for the season and I was told it would take one to two days for them to come out and quote my property. I called both days no answer and on the second time I called I left a message. It comes to the following week I have to call again. I then get a message from a lady in a different branch that tells me I have to call back their other branch.

So I do that and then was told by Melanie I believe I don't know why this keeps happening and I don't think we have room for you now. Not for nothing but when I called the week before why was I told they are coming out for an estimate? It's now a week later and I have to try and scramble and find a lawn service. If I was told they would take me on and come out, you should honor it.

Bad business period. I also suggest that Debbie and Melanie need communicate a little more because I shouldn't have to hear every reason in book as to why you this got messed up. Very frustrating!

I just had a sod lawn laid down last year. Looked beautiful, lush and green. Cerami Lawns showed up and told me I needed an algae treatment. They never did it. They showed up several times for fertilizer treatments, but did not treat. Look at the photos and tell me how you think their service is? I'm very upset.

Excellent design and maintenance. I can always spot a Cerami job when a new home goes up in town because their installs are consistently beautiful!

Never again. Had them for two seasons, second time to give them another chance, and once to trim my bushes. I asked to be home when they cut my scrubs, and they did it on their own, upon my return was devastated with what they cut. My beautiful scrubs where ruined, and never came back the same, some destroyed. After years of nurturing my limelight trees and other scrubs, all destroyed.

My grass always got big bald spots, and I always got the same excuse that I didnt water enough. I was very suprised with this company since the first few months they seemed to be great. Didnt last long. Thank goodness I had one nice girl in the office to help me, but there wasnt much she could do to rectify the damage. If you love your lawn and gardens, don't go here.not worth the $$$ as their extremely expensive.

Critical: Professionalism, Responsiveness Called several times to set up estimate for lawn care /fertilization and landscaping. Was told each one someone would be out that week. NEVER did anyone come or provide me with an estimate I would actually rate them a zero

Worst company ever. I called to cancel last year and I moved. They still tried to charge me for a house I don't even live in anymore and wouldn't even speak to me, hung up on me 3 times. They immediately got defensive when I called about this which tells me that they are use to doing this to people(ITS A SCAM). I spoke with Lisa the owner and they just talk over you. Its borderline criminal. I had to call my credit card company. Just disgusting. They should be out of business.

Im gonna keep this short. Ive been unsatisfied several times when hiring someone to perform work around my home. That being said, NO ONE has been worse at that than cerami. This will be my first negative review of a company in my life. Please do urself a favor and DO NOT HIRE THEM. They are untrustworthy. Being a Veteran, that is an important quality to me. Theyre work was sub par at best when u complain they yes u to death and then no show you, giving u no respect. U can TRUST me when I say this. There will be a sign at very VFW and American Legion in ocean county boycotting your untrustworthy business.

Not happy with the service lately. They used to be good and care about the services they provided. The front lawn was overrun with weeds, so they killed all and reseeded which is what we wanted. The problem was they reseeded over lumpy bumpy soil with no raking at all, so the lawn is so uneven. For some reason we then hired them to do the mulch. Well they came and weeded and put down mulch.

It did look nice, but they ripped out perrenials that I had in the planting beds for years, and now they're gone. They have been treating for weeds, but we still have weeds, and patches of the actual grass are dead.

We have had Cerami Lawns for a few years now, and I can honestly say that our lawn has NEVER looked better. Everyone is always so nice, and they are always there to answer any questions you may have. We are looking forward to another beautiful green season with them again.

Horrible. The company ran over my sprinkler head and broke it. Then in return tells me I have to pay for it. Don't go with them. Bad service!

We just started with Cerami and have seen a significant improvement in our lawn. We used another well know company for years who managed to destroy our lawn with time. We then hired Cerami who came highly recommend, and they have brought it back to life. We are on a corner property with a lot of traffic where people have stopped to admire our lawn to ask who treats it. We look forward to seeing it improve even more! Staff is friendly and customer service is great

Customer service and quality of service has gone down the toilet. I used Cerami to treat my lawn for over 10 years. The people working for them used to be knowledgeable, but now they are just hiring anyone to do the applications. They have just about killed of my lawn. Weeds run rampant, grass is thin and doesn't grow consistently. I was wasting approximately $500 a year. Time for a change.

I installed new sod in my front yard last year and had them do the fall treatment and then they've been doing the treatments this year as well. Honestly yard looks amazing, I've called with a few questions over the weekend and every Monday morning someone calls me back. I saw someone comment about the employees looking high But they did a nice job.

Well then what the hell are you complaining about? Feel like some people just like to complain for the sake of complaining. Anyway, so far my experience has been great I have nothing to complain about.

I'll try Social Media as calling the office doesn't seem to work. After your workers applied my treatment in the pouring rain 0n 9/10/2015, and then tried to give me a BS story about how it is OK, I refused to accept the bill. I have called the office and left messages 3X since Friday for a manger to call me back and no one has the courtesy to return my phone call-how professional!

Not only did the treatment was away, I believe it is not environmentally safe to spray herbicide in the rain. I guess I'll have to contact the NJDEP about that. My next step is the Asbury Park Press On your Side as well as a small claims court visit in order to recoup the money I've paid so far and the cost to renovate my lawn that the "professionals" at Cerami have been taking care of this season-what a joke!

After 2 seasons with you, my lawn looks the worst this season. So much for a sod lawn - it is full of bugs and fungus that your "professional" failed to recognize and treat. Guarantee you would not use my lawn in your pictures of Cerami quality! Way to run a business also. I expected more but I guess not. Now after ignoring my letters and calls their un-professionalism and lack of courtesy really show as they are threatening to take me to collections!
