MICHAEL & SONS LANDSCAPE SVC

It started off okay, but eventually weeds were not pulled or killed in the red rock around the grass. Sometimes they would not finish along the fence on the outside and the grass would grow to and under the wood fence in the back and chain link fence in the front. I talked to Mike about this and getting the weeds they'd been missing. I told him I would pay him more money if needed to get the job done the way I wanted. I thought all was okay then, but the work just got sloppy. I had to pay others to pull weeds for me. The second to last time they came they killed along the edge of only ONE side of my front yard and left the other side to grow into the rock. The last time they came they were leaving and I asked if they were done. When they said yes, I had to show them along the fence where they had done NOTHING to get rid of the grass growing under the fence. The two young men were really nice and did most of what I asked, but I should not have had to tell them to do what was supposed to be done; Mike and I had talked about what I wanted done several times. A few months ago I e-mailed Mike and said I'd like to have the bushes in the yard trimmed and I would pay extra. He did not respond to my e-mail. After about two weeks with no response about the bushes I e-mailed him again. He wrote back and said maybe they could get at it that following week. That was a couple months ago - nothing was ever done. After that; and the one side of the yard's edge still growing into the rock, along with weeds throughout. I finally e-mailed and told Mike what needed to be done and if he couldn't do it to let me know so I could get someone else to do it. He said in a return e-mail that he "guessed he wasn't doing it right" and said he wouldn't be back. Mike and I parted on decent terms. I have just hired another person to do my yard work at about the same price. So far so good.

We have a contract with them. My lawn looks good after they were done with their service.
