Had the Scuba Weed Control guys out for a long overdue cleanup on our lakeshore near Isanti/StFrancis. Highly communicative, very personable, hard working, and efficient. They finished faster than originally estimated, and did an A+ job of cleanup, including scrubbing the dock and raking the beach. Considering the amount of work that was done and the highly noticeable improvement, it was well worth the overall cost.
