The initial service costs more than the weekly service and they offer online invoice bill pay which I appreciate. They do their best to maintain a regular day of the week so you know when to expect them and to leave open any yard gateYou may have, such as we do, to contain pets and kids. A people I have spoken to or had email conversations with have always been polite and friendly and relatively quick to provide an answer. I intend to contact them about the possibility of plowing this Winter. And I intend to continue with them in the coming summer.

Engaged for a 8 month renovation, Hay Runner provided a certificate of substantial completion after over 19 months and billed 50% over their estimated cost. Throughout the project Hay Runner refused to provide basic project information (schedule, budget to actual updates, subcontracts, vendor invoices, etc) and provided inaccurate updates on status/timing of the project. Rather than provide such information, Hay Runner threatened to walk off the project. This pattern of behavior unfortunately starts at the top with the aggressive behavior of its owner, Shannon Richards. Happy to share additional details if you are considering a project with Hay Runner.

I hired Anthony Beasley to do simple flooring work and build stairs. He claimed he had 2 guys that…read moreworked with him and wrote into the contract that he was going to replace subfloor. He gave me a start date which he did not start on. He cashed my $1200 deposit within an hour- first of many red flags. He informed me the hallway floor was so sloped he would need to build it up with subfloor too- add $700, I agreed as it was badly sloped. when i got home he had made the floor more level but it was underlay that he put right on the old pine floor, not subfloor. I was charged subfloor money for underlay. He did not take the underlay all the way to the edges, presumably he either didnt know how to jigsaw it out around the door jamb or didnt think to sawzall the door jamb to fit it. Finally the heater vent in the floor does not fit anymore he did not check it before screwing the plywood down and now it has to be removed and fixed. He had no other guys with him and so that is all that got done in 2 days. When asked he insisted it was subfloor, even though that goes directly on the joists, because it goes under the floor...that is not how that works at all. He said he didn't have other guys working with him to keep overhead down, so there goes the week he said this whole job would take, and even though it was written on the contract in his own hand he insisted he was not doing subfloor in another room, which he clearly can't do anyway because he doesnt know what it is. He then accused me of doctoring the contract and said he had no memory of saying that, writing that, or any dip in the livingroom to address and I must have written it into the contract behind his back. Then tried to say there was too much furniture for him to have seen the dip even though I had cleared the furniture away so he could see the issue. When I decided I didnt want him to doing anymore shoddy work in my home or talking to me like Im an idiot I told him, out of the 1200 deposit he could keep the 700 for work and materials that he quoted for the work he did (shoddy as it was) but I wanted the rest refunded as I would not be needing his services anymore and that I would leave the few tools he had here on the porch for him to pick up. Even though there is nothing in the language of the contract that would suggest he could withhold anything the next day he said he would keep $499 of the $500 dollars left that I wanted back because I broke the contract, as if unsatisfactory work wouldn't qualify, and offered me a dollar back instead. When I said I would take him to small claims he had the audacity to brag about how in the 15 years of doing this work he has gone to court a few times and won all of them...not really something to brag about dude. He also, very childishly, took the bag of common nails and wood screws I left with the other tools he brought and scattered them across the driveway in front of my garage knowing I would come home after work when it was dark and prompting me to have to file a police report. This guy is the literal WORST, he lies, he is counting on a woman being too dumb to know better, and will argue with you circuitously. He is inept, childish, and vengeful. Please avoid him and his "work" at all costs. I wish I had checked his BBB and yelp reviews first. Don't let him sucker you too
