STAY AWAY FROM THIS COMPANY
First of all, I apologize for the length of this review. BUT please read before calling this company. First of all, I was quoted over the phone, site unseen. I thought this was odd but okay. The crew was suppose to show up the next week. NO SHOW. So, I called. The crew came out same week but did not trim the hedges. So, I called. I was told to send pictures, I did. I signed up for bi-weekly service. The service was sub par and after several months I was thinking of changing but summer was coming up so I thought I will deal with it until August. BOY I wished I would have went with my first instinct. Starting in March, I signed up for weekly service in preparation for Spring. The crew just stopped showing up. One week, two weeks, three weeks, NO SERVICE. I call and leave messages. No return call. I e-mail. Finally after 3 missed weekly services in April I called Shawna at the office and she put me off. Then I get a mass e-mail from Paul stating he was having trouble getting his worker's VISA's approved. So, they could not re-enter the country and apologized for late or no service. So, the crew comes only one time in May and it was at my constant urging because I had a graduation party scheduled. You can imagine what my lawn looked like by that time after only one mower service in 2 months. OKAY GET READY FOR THE NEXT AND BEST PART: I received a bill after the May 31st service (only service in May) and Paul's Landscaping charged me an additional $150.00 for READY FOR THIS : CLEAN UP. After they missed 5 services, they charged me for it. OH BUT THATS NOT ALL: They also charged me by the hour instead of my regular quoted rate. WHY? Because of the time it took their 2, yes I said 2 man crew to mow, edge and blow. Keep in mind, there are usually 4 crew workers here. They charged me for 3 hours and 22 minutes. The funny part, I watched the younger of the two gentleman they sent sit under my walnut tree drinking a Gatorade for an hour and a half. I felt completely sorry for the older gentleman doing all the work. OH BUT WAIT: This was the last time Paul's came to my home. I left a not so nice voicemail when I received the hourly bill/clean up invoice. HOWEVER, I then got an e-mail from their office tripling my rate. Obviously, I fired them. STILL MORE: 4 weeks goes by after I called and cancelled and then I receive ANOTHER INVOICE via e-mail for a service that NEVER HAPPENED. I know because I work from home. They automatically charged my card after I cancelled their service. THE OFFICE ADMINISTRATION IS A JOKE AS IS THE FINANCE DEPARTMENT. There are so many more options to choose from in Georgetown. SAVE YOURSELF some hassle, time and money. BYPASS this company. I sure wished I would have! Also, read the other reviews on this site ....it's more of the same! read more
