I hired this business to do some landscaping for me in July. They used a bobcat that scratched over 1/4 of my driveway. When I called this to the attention of the owner, he told me it would be ok, (I had just had my driveway powered washed 2 weeks prior to the landscaping) after another power washing and heavy rains, it is NOT ok. The scratches I was told are permanently there unless the driveway is resurfaced.
Also, I had a hydrangea bush I wanted to have transplanted, the owner told me they would be happy to do it, but he couldn't guarantee it would take, (by the way they give you no warranty for any plants or bushes they put in)
I told him I would decide when they came to do the job if I wanted it transplanted. When they came to start the job, he again told me by transplanting the hydrangea IT would die, so I decided not to have it done. I told him since I was charged for this service, I felt I should be reimbursed. He told me they specifically did not charge me, however, the contract reads "Transplanting the Hydrangea in the front landscape" and this was included in the total cost. I asked several times for an itemized statement. I never received one, just a receipt.
Needless to say, they took no responsibility for any of this. The reason I chose this landscaper was because of their good reviews, but I'm hoping to help anyone else who may want to hire them, do so at your own risk.
I will never hire them again.
