After finally getting tired of looking at our outdated site, I decided to update it (in stages when I have some free time).
www.qualitylawncare.biz
Let me know what you think so far. The new pages have a greenish background, and the old ones have a black background.

sweet website, the beginning bores me though, i read about 3 lines and skimmed the rest, otherwise, it's really cool.
I suggest shortening up the front page to about 4 lines, otherwise, it's a great website, good job

Sorry, you get the automated response, which seems to be the norm for site builder sites.
1) Code is not valid. Please validate!!
HTML: http://validator.w3.org/
CSS: http://jigsaw.w3.org/css-validator/
2) Mixture of hardcoded style, inline style, linked style is a NIGHTMARE.
Separation of style and content is the recommended way to maintain your code.
3) Limited or no document structure/outline

4) Limited or no accessibility compliance

In addition to the above:
5) You menu system needs work, especially in the services section
6) Estimate page, and other non-matching pages should be the same design as the rest of the site.
7) Some layout problems that should be addressed

1-4 makes no sense to me. Can you open all of the pages? I'm a landscaper, not a computer wizz. If the pages open and potential clients can read them, that's all I'm concerned about.
5- What part of the menu needs work?
6- I know some of them haven't been updated. That's written in my original post.
7- Layout problems such as?

That is what items 1-4 address

Your list of services (eg in page menu) is not persistent, it should be.
7- Layout problems such as?
Content wider than your header.
