On Friday, 5/25/2012, at approximately 9:50 AM, Brian arrived to spray all the shrubs and trees. He stayed a very short time, was not observed to go into the backyard which was fenced in and had a "Dog on Premises" sign. He never asked if the dog was put up, which he was. I observed him spraying a dogwood tree - he did a quick up and down motion and could not have reached the top nor did he go behind the tree to get the other side. My husband went out to speak to him.
Brian said that he did not treat the trunks of established trees (different from what his boss Shawn had told us) and he did not notice Holly bushes or Rose of Sharon bushes or the Crepe Myrtle tree in the backyard (probably because he didn't go in the back.) He said that nothing was wrong with the ivy in front of the house but it was obvious that numerous leaves were turning yellow and brown and had large holes in them. He said that it was against the law to spray a plum tree even if it was ornimental and had no fruit on it but was infected with bugs. We were extremely disatisfied with Brian's service. We were told by True Green that Brian is the only 'tree person' they have working for them. He never did treat our tall, well established trees. Three days later, we noticed large tan bugs on our Red Bud tree and spider mites under the leaves of several low trees.My husband attempted to alert True Green management that Friday afternoon of our dissatisfaction with Brian's service. He was told that both Brent and Chad are managers but that neither one were avaialble. He left a message for either one to call him. On Monday, 5/28 and Tus 5/29/12 my husband called and again left messages for a manager to return his call. On Wed. 5/30, Brent called - i took the call and relayed that my husband was not available for the moment. Brent said that he was going in the field and would call back in 30 minutes. He didn't call back. We called again that afternoon, with no answer. After we sent a letter to True Green on 6/6/12, we finally heard from Brent and then Brian. The problem was discussed with Brian and we related that we would not pay for services not rendered. Brian said that they would not bill us. Our neighbor said that she too had had problems with them over service to her trees.
It went just fine - please see above. Very satisfied - start date 3/22/2011 and continuing through June, 2012.
"I guess the FACT that there was no winter this year had nothing to do with your yard. I keep telling people to water, water, water and all I get, it's too expensive or I am not watering, yet everyone wants a beautiful lawn. I have used Scotts products for years in my yard. Since we live in a transitional state, it takes longer to get your yard looking nice. It has taken me 5 years to get my lawn looking so good, oh yea, I water regularly as I bought a house I can afford and afford the water that it needs to maintain a goodlooking yard. Scotts is also on routes and it depends on the when you started your service. BTW, $500.00 - really?? I think it was more like $109.00 for 2 services only and since Knoxville an surrounding areas, along with 2,999 other cities, since June 2012, have broke all time heat records, 2 services will not get your lawn beautiful. So if your going on line to bad mouth a company, you should get your facts straight! Thank you and have a lovely day."
They have great lawn products but their service couldn't be any worse and I will never call or trust them to do any more work for me in the future.
