Description of Work: We hired Natures Perspective to help with drainage issues in our yard. This was the second time they attempted to fix the problem and because of their failure the first time only paid them 1/2 of the money until the job was completed satisfactory . It never was. Despite calls to the owner (who never bothered to see the repair) the situation was never fixed. They had no problem repeatedly billing however. In addition, a stone patio they installed, shifted, cracked and despite asking for it to be fixed it never was. In the end we hired a new company to fix the issues.
