Hunny Do Artificial Grass

DO NOT USE THIS COMPANY!!! They were great when we were buying the turf but non responsive since. I have had the turf for 5 weeks and it looks like this. Weeds are growing from the edging onto the sidewalk and growing through the turf. All of that in 5 weeks of owning it. We have tried to get in touch with them and even emailed them the pictures and no response. This is not what you expect when you spend over 8k.

I begged this company to send me samples and they refused! I gave them my specific needs, to narrow down the selection, and they still would not send me samples.
My time is valuable and I wanted to make my selections prior to my appointment. That way I could review the product specs, prices and have a more productive meeting.
This is the only turf company that would not send samples. Their website does not show current products with detailed specs so I wanted to see this information prior to a meeting.
Not such an unusual request especially when I plan to purchase turf for my front & backyards. Guess they don’t need the buisness.

This company is NOT professional. I had an appointment in December 2014 for maintenance to my already installed grass. I was given a price of $ 75. I waited all morning and afternoon as I was given a four hour window. NO one ever show. I called and never received a call back. I finally got in touch with the office and was treated poorly as if my time was not as important as theirs. I was very upset that I did not try to reschedule till this month (June 2015). I was now quoted a new price of $ 400. Yes Frank B. I am upset. Your people are rude and unreliable. This is accurate. I have no reason to waist my time posting a false review. If you read the other reviews you can see that this seems to be standard practice for this company.

5+ star zzz! These guys are awesome. Thank you to the workers and owner Frank for a job well done

We scheduled an appointment with Dennis for a Thursday morning. He was to arrive between 7:30 — 8:00am. My husband and I both work very long days, until very late at night, so it was difficult to get up 6/6:30 so we’d be ready for Dennis and then ready to sprint off to work immediately after the appointment. We waited for Dennis to arrive, but he was a no-​show. At about 8:15a, we called Hunny Do, and the person we spoke to said she’d find out what had happened and call us back to let us know. We never received a call. Our experience with Hunny Do has shown only that they are unprofessional and have little respect for their prospective clients’ time and energy.

Frank from Hunny Do is probably one of my favorite people who has done any work on my house. In addition to the great reviews, he just wants his customers to be happy. I was tired of dealing with daily gopher holes, weeds, mushrooms, different types of grass (thanks to a gardener who uses the same lawnmower for all his clients) sky-​high water bills, grass that was half-​soggy and half brown and crispy. Enough. I was determined to get artificial grass. I interviewed three companies and Frank just sold me from Day 1. (He was 45 minutes early). Hannah in the office was tremendous also. They made sure the workers got to my house on time and finished replacing the grass in the time they told me they would and they cleaned up nicely. I love my artificial grass!

We had Hunny Do install artificial grass in our backyard almost three years ago and now we were ready for the front yard. They did such a great job last time that we didn’t bother calling anyone else. Once again, the work and workers were fabulous. The product looks great and all our neighbors joke that we are making them look bad. Yes, it is a bunch of money upfront, but if you stay in your house for a while you will eventually reap the savings. I am looking forward to selling my lawnmower and shutting off the sprinklers for good!

Hey Unilocaler, what can I say? I am in the same book as everyone else… its 5-​stars. If you or anyone is looking to either install or replace grass with artificial turf then Hunny Do is the way to go! Frank is great, Hannah in the office is awesome, the Crew that did the install in fantastic. The install was fast. There really is nothing that can be said other than if you are looking at this as an option for your yard and you do not call and talk to Hunny Do, you are doing yourself a disservice.
Here is the story if anyone wants to read about why and how I picked Hunny Do for my lawn contractor; I was looking at lawn and turf options as we have new construction but I did not want to deal with sprinklers, the increased water bill (in LA water prices are insane!), gardeners and lawns. The whole idea of looking at the summer dead brown grass did not fire me up inside but if I needed too, I would. We wanted something with a great price that would allow us to enjoy the backyard I started the hunt for options. I started the search for sod and grass and we settled on artificial grass. We started looking at installers and came across what i thought was outrageous costs. Finally like a beacon in the fog I came across the Hunny Do website and one other nameless installer. So I called both, Contractor A was open, Hunny Do was closed for the day and so I left a voice mail and moved on. Because Contractor A had an open office that day, we drove down checked out the product and we set an appointment for the following Monday to spec out the backyard. No call back from Hunny Do yet, I thought nothing of it and Monday came about and as I was traveling from the office to the meeting at about 10 minutes from the meeting Contractor A set he called and told me he was doubled booked and we would need to reschedule. I told him the meeting was 10 minutes away and knowing you were double booked, A. you had to know before hand and B. you could have called sooner as my drive time to and from work was 1 hr. each way, so by 9:50, I had already been in my car driving for almost 2 hours in Los Angeles traffic and was ready to melt down. I hung up on Contractor A and within 20 seconds there was a call from Hunny Do on the phone. I said ‘Well how ironic is this, I just got off the phone from Contractor A and his brushing me off, so I’d love to have Hunny Do swing by for a estimation on a install. I called up the Misses and said ‘Honey, Guess what? Huddy Do called as Contractor A flaked off, I’ll be back at the office in an hour and we’ll talk about it tonight.’ Days later I met with Frank, what can be said about Frank? Nothing but humble great things. He is really a salt of the earth type guy. Frank came in, did a quick estimation, we talked for a bit and the kids picked the grass and we were off to the races. I cannot recommend Hunny Do more, I usually do not put a seal of approval of anything but here, I feel I need to. This is a great product, in this world of shoddy workmanship and broken business, Hunny Do is truly a 5-​star company.

I have to say I was all ready to go with this company based on the reviews. They showed up 30 minutes early (which is not a bad thing) but did not have samples with them. The salesman said someone took them out of his truck but they would be mailed to us. He was so busynwriting details on the contract he did not answer our questions. First he made us wait outside in the cold while he and his assistant measured the lawn area. Every other company answered our questions before they measured. Every answer to every question was, «call and talk to Hannah, she knows the answer». I guess they should have sent Hannah. the salesperson said that Hannah was going to call us right after the appointment to answer any questions we had. I AM STILL WAITING FOR HER CALL… AND THE SAMPLES.
I don’t care if this is supposed to be the best company, I WOULD NEVER use them. they are extremely impersonal and don’t care about the customer. They are all about the dollar. there are many excellent companies out there that truly care about the customer.

Hunny Do was able to do a very small artificial grass installation for much less than what anyone else quoted me. Frank, the owner, came by and was the nicest, most down to earth guy. He was able to make something work for me that was very cost-​effective and of great quality. There was no up-​selling of any kind. The crew that did the installation were professional, polite and efficient. I will definitely use Hunny Do in the future, and will refer him to everyone interested in artificial grass. It looks amazing!

Hunny Do installed artificial grass in a shaded play area that never grew real grass very well, if at all. I turned off the sprinklers to the area over 6 months ago and just had the artificial stuff installed a few weeks ago. Our family has been loving it ever since. No questioning the decision. It has been better than expected. Artificial turf installed is expensive up front, regardless the installer. Hunny Do sent Chris out twice to meet with me and go over samples. Chris is great, knowledgeable and available for questions but never pushy. We called another company which also sent out a nice salesperson and was available for questions as we mulled over the decision. In the end, we were drawn to Hunny Do because of their relationship with Armstrong Gardens and decided to use them after considering the interactions with Chris and the warranties that Hunny Do provides. The company was easy to find here and on the BBB site. Basically, all things checked out. The installation for around 800 SF of space went smoothly over two days with a great crew that had been working for Hunny Do for many years. I cannot think of anything bad about this experience, other than the chunk out of the bank account. But seeing my two boys playing soccer and baseball on it, the dog running and sleeping on it and the lack of dirt being tracked in to the house makes me glad that we did it.
As for deciding on artificial turf overall, I had read that it gets hot, has a smell, is loud when walked on, is hard on ankles for sports… our area is fairly shaded but got some heavy sun this past week when it hit 90+ here, the turf was warm but felt good to walk on barefoot, I could smell some off-​gassing, hoping that decreases over time, but it wasn’t strong, just noticed it, it is louder than walking on real grass, there is a little bristly sound when walking on it, louder when it is cold out and the grass is less pliable, but nothing like what I expected from online reviews, I don’t know about wear on the body, I’m guessing it would take years of hardcore use to be affected, although it does get slicker than grass when damp, my boys hosed it down and practiced sliding into base… It’s fake, but it is practical. It looks really nice, especially with the fallen leaves on it, it doesn’t need watering or fertilizer, it is permeable so, unlike the concrete base of a sport court, rain drains through it.
If you are debating whether to use artificial turf, I highly recommend it and going with Hunny Do.

We used Hunny Do to put in fake grass a little over three years ago. It cost around $ 3400, which seems pricy, but was by far the cheapest estimate we got. We have three dogs and over time, weeds grew on the sides and on top. Most of it still looked ok, but parts of the area were a little shabby.
Last week, I called them and asked them to honor their warranty to fix it and set up an appointment. FABULOUS! The guy was here on time, cleaned up all the weeds and told me how to avoid them in the future. The best part is my yard looks like the turf was just installed yesterday. Seriously, it looks BRAND NEW! This company hires nice, honest people, very professional, and best of all, honors its warranty even after years have passed. HIGHLY recommended.

A++ for Sales, Product, and Service — I called several artificial grass companies and setup appointments. One never showed and several kept trying to make me buy what they wanted to sell, not what I needed.
Hunny Do, and their sales rep Chris, were great. The prices was right and the product was installed quickly and professionally. Our new back yard looks and feels great. The dogs love it and so does my wife. This is the best money we have spent on our home — EVER!

I am so glad that Syn Lawn did not call me back. I called Hunny Do and they came out right away. In fact, they came out twice so my wife could see the choice of samples. We decided and set a date. The guys came last week. They were professional and fast. They did an amazing job! We love it!!! We are thinking of doing the front yard soon. Highly recommend! Thanks Hunny Do!
