Mo Kan Home Lawn & Landscape

Mark Boydston, owner of Mo Kan Lawn & Landscape, gave me a quote for landscaping work in the amount of $1,005.00 & requested a down payment of $450.00. On 4/3/2013 before I sent the down payment, he said he could do the work the end of the next week. He answered phone calls and emails. After he received the down payment, he would not answer the phone, return phone messages, or emails. I was notified by my HOA that I needed to get the work done because I was not in compliance with HOA rules. I tried to call & email Mark about that, but he would still not respond. On 5/17/2013 I sent him an email and told him that I would need to hire someone else to do the work, and requested a refund of my $450.00 down payment. He has still not responded as of 6/3/2013, and he has not returned the $450.00. I would not recommend using this person for any services.

We have used Mo Kan for lawn mowing, landscaping and building a rock walkway in our backyard. His work is always well done when he does it. That is where the problem lies. He will tell you he will do a job for you, accept a deposit for plants, etc. and not do the work for 6 weeks. In the case of the walk, he did a very sloppy job and we were not happy. Three months later, he still hasn't fixed it. He has made a lot of promises, delivered samples, etc. but has yet to do the work. The last straw was when he said on Friday that he would fix the walk on Monday. Monday was a beautiful day but no work, no phone call, no email, nothing. My husband and I have both left him several voice mails. NONE have been returned. As I said, he does beautiful work but is very unreliable and rarely shows up!
