I had 3 bids from 3 other companies that I found in the Home Magazine that they send you in the mail. Two of them didn't even have any samples with them to show me so I can see the difference. So I had no idea just what they are talking about. How am I suppose to just take their word for it? The other company just had 1 sample. But then again, I wanted to see a few samples to compare. And then came Rob Skow of Z Best Turf...he had an abundance of samples for me to see and he explained thoroughly the difference in price and quality. He took his time and just didn't just looked at my yard and gave a price unlike the other companies. I highly recommend him. They did a wonderful job!!! AWESOME!!!
