Description of Work: Aeration and seeding as part of a Big Deal. Showed up on the scheduled day and performed aeration and seeding. Could have taken a little more time around edges of yard and flower beds, but overall a good job for a very good price.

Description of Work: This has been a bad experience-the owner has no professionalism, is immature, rude, and not reliable. They sprayed for weeds (not well), set 2 appts. for areation and overseeding-none of which happened. Called to cancel the 1st appt.- machine down, rescheduled for following week-never showed up nor called. Put a sign in my yard offering FREE AREATIONS-mine had been paid for! Phone message system FULL when I called the evening of the supposed second areation-called the next morning-spoke with Jason (owner). No apology. Said to me, about my questioning the problems, "Don't be mean to me." He said that they would reschedule me and I said "No, I cannot rely on you and I want to cancel. I taught school for 44 years and never had a student so immature, argumentative and rude. I paid $41.00 for the weed kill and had also set up a grub treatment. Grass seed should have been sown before this month's end so it has a chance to germanate before frost. I would like this removed from my credit card. Sincerely, Marcia L. Mills

Response from The Organic Turf Co
[removed member name], I'm sorry you had a bad experience. As a business owner with limited resources (time), I choose to invest only where I can be most beneficial for the organization as a whole. Serving you and your account has been a challenge from day one. Even though your requests were nearly impossible to meet, we did our best to accommodate your specif needs. However, when making organizational choices, we can not sacrifice the client experience for our thousands of clients for the sake of only 1 (you). Similarly, you wouldn't halt the progress of 29 students in your classroom for 1 that has specific struggles. As you can see from our reviews, 95% of our clients love what we do. The 5% that don't are usually attributable to challenging clients like yourself. Best of luck going forward.

Description of Work: I had my lawn aerated and reseeded by The Organic Turf Co. to help increase lawn thickness and growth in 2015. The worker was professional and answered all my lawn questions.

Description of Work: I purchased 3 fertilizing treatments and one aeration and over seeding treatment through Angie's List coupons. | |For the first fertilization treatment, I requested that the technician talk to me so that I could explain where lot lines are. (I was told that the company uses Google map photos to determine the size locations and lot lines of the properties that they are servicing.) The technician did not contact me and so part of my yard was not fertilized. For the second fertilization treatment, again the technician did not talk to me and again not all of my yard was treated. Finally, on the third fertilization treatment, the technician rang my doorbell, we talked, and the treatment was very good. However, it had taken me more than three phone calls to the company in order for this to happen. | |I also purchased a lawn aeration and over seeding package through Angie's List. The technician came out about the third week of September. I was not home at the time because I was not told what day they were coming. The technician did a very bad job of aeration and over seeding: large swaths of yard were not aerated at all nor reseeded. Where aeration was done, in some areas the ground was so badly torn up it looks as though I have a severe problem with moles. | |Again, I had to call the company and ask to have the service redone. | |Jason, my area coordinator, reluctantly rescheduled service for the following week. I requested that the technician talk to me before performing the service so he and I could understand exactly what needed to be redone. Unfortunately, the service was scheduled for the only day that I was not able to change my schedule in order to be here to talk to the technician if he came in the morning. | |Again, I called Organic Turf Company to ask if the technician could arrive after 1:00 PM and be sure to ring my doorbell before he started to work. Jason informed me that I was requesting something that was very difficult for them to do. I pointed out that, if the technician had done the job correctly the first time, it would not have been necessary to have him come out a second time to redo the work. | |In an effort to understand this from the company's point of view and that there was something that I just didn't understand about this whole process, I asked Jason what it was that I didn't understand that made it so difficult for them to contact the property owner before doing a treatment of any kind. He informed me that they are a high-volume company, and that, after all, I had purchased the services through Angie's List at a discounted rate. I presume this implied that I was being unreasonable to be complaining about the quality of the service. | | |The final blow came when Jason, who kept talking over me and not allowing me to talk, said that he didn't wish to continue the conversation and that he was hanging up and we were ending our [customer and provider] relationship. Indeed, he did hang up on me. | |I do not believe that I was being unreasonable in thinking that I should get the same service is anyone else, even though I had purchased it through Angie's List. Sitting on my desk is an invoice from Organic Turf Company asking me to sign up for a year of fertilization service for 2015. Considering that in the three out of four services performed by the Oganic Turf Company I have had to call about problems with the service, I will not be requesting service for 2015. It is simply too much of a struggle to work with the company, and I don't think the quality of work is very good. | |I absolutely DO NOT recommend them. | | |

Response from The Organic Turf Co
[member name removed], Your response walks up to and in places goes beyond libel. I would politely ask you take this down before our attorney formally requests you do so. From your 2nd visit with James, you know that your entire lawn was aerated the first time correctly. Some plugs were not as sizable as others but James did show you where all areas of your lawn were cared for correctly the first time. We do not allow dishonest employees to work here as I told you during a phone conversation. As he explained to you, your areas of concerns were around your ornamental grass and he showed you where these were done the first time. When you started service, you indicated another company did a very poor job on your lawn in the past. Its now clear that no matter the company you choose to hire, the client will never be pleased. Im sorry we tried to serve your needs. You have been a drain on our resources from day one.
