Forbes Lawn and Landscape

John himself is a very nice person and at his core I am sure he would like to do a good job - however running a business is clearly not in his wheelhouse. The project involved pavers and planting. With regard to the pavers, while a great deal of work was done, the sanding was done poorly and will require about $2K of work to fix from another contractor, sand is missing for several areas, grout used for certain stones is all over the brick on our home. Also, some stone on my home was damaged, fencing was damaged, garbage from the work was left for me to take care of, stone and aggregate from prior to the work was left in the dirt used for the new planting (looks terrible), nearly $1k damage was done to our sprinkler system, and more. The plantings were OK, but sparse and will require additional plants to fill in. The project started in later summer, did not quite finish by early winter and the following spring, it was make very clear he did not want to deal with me any further.

DON'T ASK! I PUT UP WITH HE JUST HAD A NEW BABY, POOR EMPLOYEES COULD NOT FIND HELP, HIS GRANDMOTHER PASSED AWAY, HE HAD A BIG JOB IN NORTHBROOK THAT WAS MORE IMPORTANT THAN MINE! THE BEST- HE COULD NOT TALK BECAUSE HIS BABY MOMA WAS YELLING AT HIM FOR NOT PAYING ATTENTION TO THE FAMILY AT A PUMPKIN PATCH! I STARTED WITH HIM IN MARCH 2018 AND TO DAY IS NOVEMBER 2018 AND MY BACKYARD AND BOTH SIDE YARDS ARE WORSE THEN WHEN HE STARTED. HE DOES NOT REPOND AND YET WANTS ME TO PAY A 600.00 BALANCE FOR WORK THAT IS NOT COMPLETED! MY SUGGESTION. . . . DO THE WORK YOURSELF OR HIRE A BLIND PERSON IT WILL LOOK BETTER! 3 BRAND NEW HOSES RUN OVER BY LAWN MOWERS! THE LIST GOES ON AND ON!
