Maurice was out to fine tune our irrigation system and did a great job. He is knowledgeable and friendly and always asked if everything he did was up to my expectations, which they were !
He is obviously an asset to your company. Thank you.
John came to give me a quote today for the irrigation system. He was extremely detailed. I did not feel rushed at all. He took the time to walk me through all the zones and to review all the areas that needed attention. John also broke down the high priority issues. John's customer service was superb. Thank you.
Can't say enough about Drake Lawn & Pest Control and their technicians. We always get a notice telling us when they are coming, and we never have to bird dog them to get our services done. Yesterday, Maurice was here and did a thorough check on our irrigation, fixed any issues he found, and patiently answered our questions. Later, Joey was here to do our lawn care. He was very knowledgeable and patiently answered our questions as well. Can tell you that our lawn is one of the best looking in the neighborhood!
Over the last few months I’ve noticed a major improvement in my lawn and I highly recommend considering services for anyone who is having continuous battles with their lawn. Drake will get it done!
Marie is an excellent associate of Drake. Trying to get the link regarding my invoice payment receipt from yesterday's lawn service with Tech Jose. Marie was very patient with me and I finally got the invoice copy on my computer with the assistance of your efficient associate Marie. She's a great asset to Drake. Thanks bunches Drake Lawn & Pest Control is always pleasing the customers. Sincerely, Theresa Jobse customer since 2019
Response from the owner:Thank you very much for your feedback and continued business ...we greatly appreciate it!
Jessi, Drake's "bug" man spoke to me when he arrived asking if I had any bug issues since the last pest control visit. I was very pleased to announce I didn't have any recent palmetto visitors inside the house. I did mention that sometimes, right after a treatment that stirs them up in the large live oaks and landscaping bark around my house, I see them inside but this time was perfect.
Response from the owner:We very much appreciate the opportunity!
Drake is awesome!! ever since they started maintaining my lawn, my yard has been green and thriving, I never see ants/bugs anymore and critters are out of my yard. Couldn’t ask for a better company to take care of my lawn?
Response from the owner:Thank you!
Technicians are so friendly, professional and knowledgeable. They provide the information and allow you to make a decision without feeling pressured. I forgot their names but the technicians that came to my home today were excellent! Give those guys a raise!

Called about a problem and they came out the next day to bring resolution to our concern. They also said we would pay less next time due to corrected measurements of the type of grass we had.

Best Lawn & Pest control company out there hands down!
Response from the owner:Thank you very much!
Sam was the best, gave us awesome advice and now were pest free
Response from the owner:Thank you very much!
I was with a large lawn care provider for the better half of 2 years. During that time a had at least 3 tech changeover. My yard got progressively worse and was overcome with weeds and dead spots. I “expected better service but did not get it!” as the ad goes. I switched over to Drake and I can already see a change for the better. Today I called to ask about my next service call and about some concerns I had with sedge. Lena answered and promptly took care of me. She scheduled a tech visit and made things happen! Didn’t have to stay on the line or wait for a call back. Great customer service! Thanks Drake.
Response from the owner:Thank you very much for the opportunity!

Scott was very knowledgeable! 🏆
Response from the owner:Thank you!
The service is great with excellent communication, pictures of my yard are emailed to me and a “report card” with each treatment. My yard looks amazing.
Response from the owner:We appreciate your feedback and business!
Drake is BY FAR the best company I've ever dealt with. 5 years ago, we moved into our new home, bringing German roaches with us from our belongings in storage. After a year of battling them ourselves with DIY pest control, we gave up! I called several companies, looking for someone to eradicate them once and for all, and NONE of the other companies offered what I was looking for, which was hand-held fogging. The Drake tech came in that first day, fogged the whole house, in every crack and crevice, and we were told to call back any time we saw any live bugs, and they would come back (at no additional charge) until they were all gone. They did, returning two or three times, and the bugs were all dead in a little over a month. We then went to monthly outside service, and we continued to have NO BUGS (ants, spiders, roaches, included) ever since. We have three indoor cats, and they never suffered any ailments from the treatments.

A year later, in the spring, our porch was infested with Tussock caterpillars (that cause rashes to the touch and bite!) that were cocooning all over our swing, railing, and eaves. I called Drake to ask if there was anything that could be done, and they had the tech sweep all the cocoons off our porch and spray. Three years later, and we've never had another caterpillar. For the last year or so, the tech has only been spraying every other month, which they decided (not me) because more frequent visits were unnecessary.

In short, Drake is worth EVERY PENNY. We are moving soon, and we're having them come to our new house for an estimate to start another contract with them.

Thank you, Drake!!
Response from the owner:You are very welcome ....and thank you so much for the opportunity and continued business!
Drake Pest and Lawn Control is very thorough and they respond very quickly. I use them for all needs around my home and yard.
Response from the owner:Thank you very much!
Jeremy Morales was very professional and answer all my questions. Yesterday I got my first service by Jimmy, will see how it goes! Thanks
Response from the owner:Thank you very much!
The floks showed up and told me exactly what was being applied to my lawn and reason behind the application. Also, informed me of problem spots that I could address myself.
Response from the owner:Thank you for your business!
Great service both from evaluation of project to completion of project, all done in 48 hours. All personnel are professional, knowledgeable and courteous. I am very pleased with the service from Drake.
Response from the owner:Thank you and we appreciate the opportunity!
Their pest service is fantastic, I have been using them for years and they are always checking to make sure all is well.
Response from the owner:Thank you very much for your continued business!
My yard looks so nice that quite a few neighbors have added Drake to their lawn maintenance as well. Drake has been responsive and answer questions or concerns promptly.
Response from the owner:Thank you for the review. Glad to hear about the shoes covers.
Response from the owner:Thank you!
Jason from Drake Lawn & Pest Control was exceptional!! He was very friendly, professional and customer focused. He answered my questions thoroughly and didn't rush through the process. He made me feel as though our concerns would really be addressed. He warmed my heart. Every company should have a Jason at their forefront. God Bless him and his company as well.

Respectfully,

Avery B. Carter
Response from the owner:We appreciate your business and feedback very much!
Drake is the only company that has kept the weeds out; they are worth every penny they charge.
Response from the owner:Thank you very much for your business!
Our lawn wasn't looking too good I noticed when walking the
neighborhood that Drake was really popular. Being our last name is Drake I decided to give a call and a representative came out and our lawn started looking really great. That was about 2 years ago
and we are very happy with Drake. When our termite contract is up with another company we are going with Drake. We highly recommend Drake!!!
Response from the owner:Thank you very much for the opportunity and continued business!
Response from the owner:Thank you very much!
Drake, is treating my lawn, I can see a little progress. I'm please.
Response from the owner:Thank you for the opportunity!
Attentive service to immediately requested needs.
Response from the owner:Thank you very much!
Jeremy was very professional and knowledgeble. He listened to my concern pertaining to my lawn and did a thorough job of walking around and check bushes and lawn. He explained the services which Drake offers and what he suggested for my lawn. Then within 3 hours Joey was out with the spreader laying down chemicals. My initial visit was superb
Response from the owner:Thank you for the opportunity!
Very satisfied with Drake lawn and Pest control.
Since last year that we contacted this service we noticed the great change on our lawn. The technician is doing a great job.
Response from the owner:Thank you very much for your business!
Drake is doing a great job
Response from the owner:Thank you very much!
I have had several lawn and shrub care companies in the past and they all start strong but then fade in treatment as time goes on. Drake has bucked the trend and is still going strong. Thank you for making my lawn and shrubs look good. Keep up the good work.
Response from the owner:Thank you very much! We will keep it up!
living in Florida for the past 9 years, and not knowing we have a different grass than up north, we weren't sure how to take care of the lawn down here and replaced the lawn 3 times in the matter of 5 years. our neighbor used Drake so we decided to try them. we are glad we did. our grass looks amazing and haven't had to replace any grass since we started using them. they always ring our bell and ask about any concerns and always address them, not that we have many issues. we had planted a palm tree in our front yard, and after about 2 years it started to look like it had dandruff on the leaves. while drake came to take care of the lawn i asked for him to look at it. well since then, the palm does not have dandruff and is flourishing. we HIGHLY recommend Drake!!!
Response from the owner:We very much appreciate the opportunity!
Thank you Drake for helping with my termite issues. Downtown Orlando is notorious for having constant termites, so having a company to maintain pest control is a must. While other companies pushed me to tent the house for $5k, Drake could rectify my issues and bond for a fraction of the cost. Technician Samuel was a joy to work with and made the entire experience easy. Highly recommend!
Response from the owner:Thank you very much for the opportunity!
Loyalty is not free, it is deserved. I believe 100% that Drake is loyal to their industry and customers from our tech to the very top. So Drake has earned my loyalty back. Drake is the best for many reasons:
1. Their Techs are great at communicating with me.
2. Drake is on the cutting edge on Florida lawn care. They have their own scientist constantly going one on one with any and every bug our sunshine state can throw at their customers.
3. They stand begin their product! Several areas of my grass had bug issues and died. Now I walk out and see freshly laid sod, courtesy of Drake's excellent warranty. I am really loyal now.
4. I am excellent at what I do, that can recognize when some other company tries to be the best at what they do.
5. Least of all, I kind of like the little duck sign in my front yard.
6. Lastly my yard has look great for years under their care.
7. Only once did the bugs get the best of us, and Drake identified the issue, squashed the bugs and replaced my grass! What more could I ask for. Drake Rocks!

Terry Lodge
