The work performed would under any means be considered substandard and disrespectful to any customer. As well as their professionalism. The company had two weeks from ordering the sod to delivery. Knowing the date and time of delivery, all the prep work should have been completed beforehand. However, they delivered the sod in the rain which resulted in it remaining on the pallets for 5-6 days then they rushed to complete the job before the sod dried out and died. The designated work area is in such a worse condition, that a new company had to be hired to not only complete the job but redo what was done. During the course of complaints against the company the owner sent out his foreman to evaluate and reported back that everything was fine. After 3-4 weeks the owner finally came out and saw what was going on. He stated "well its not perfect". Anything close to perfection would be acceptable but, this was just horrible. As a thought, what company does not strive for perfection or stand behind their work? Apparently, this one does not take pride in their work nor hold there employees to any type of standard. The crew placed pieces of sod on top of others, left pallets and other trash around the yard and failed to trim pieces against the building. After multiple request to fix the problems the issues are still unresolved. The owner insisted that any visits to fix the problems would cost me more money. Why would it cost me more money to fix their negligence? Here is a catch, if I did not pay attention to the bill and know what a truck load of fill dirt looked like, I would have been charged for material and services not done. Not only was the yard not rolled as promised, he was charging me for 8 yards of dirt not delivered and a grass cutting visit which did not happen. Also, instead of buying a yard of dirt to fill in areas of low spots , they bought 35 bags of top soil which is considerably more expensive. They blamed me, the weather and every thing else they could think of to justify their actions and incompetence. There was a third party lawn specialist that recommended some options to help however, none were taken. The sections of sod that were dead were cut out and replaced with a completely different type, which is very apparent and looks like a patch job. The side of the house has a huge gouge in it from something which they claim was not their fault. However, it was not there before they started. So I guess little green aliens did it while I was at work. There are so many up and downs throughout the yard that it can be compared to a roller coaster when traversing it. Not only did the work not get completed because the guy giving the quote does not know math but also rutted up the remaining yard with the tractor and left it that way, which resulted in the inability to mow. The city citated me for their negligence, I had the cops called to my door because the sod was in the street and the neighbors complained for the debris left in the road. So instead of the best yard on the block I ended up the black sheep of the neighborhood. The company not only performed a bait and switch but also it seems as though they set the scene up for further expenses. Their customer service, professionalism and scheduling practices need to overhauled. If needed I have pictures to prove all of what is stated. They may have the ability and equipment to cut grass but, I would not ever consider them for any type of lawn care. The owner blatantly falsifies information and events to cover himself. As stated, the area was not prepared before delivery of sod and I was charged $105 for the dirt that was used to "shore up the mud". The company had two weeks to prep the area and did not attempt to do so until after the sod was delivered and the weather cleared. The day the sod was delivered it began to rain around 1700, so if it were prepared before hand there would have been sufficient time to lay it down before it rained. If I was happy with the end result I would not be providing a negative review. The company did not care for or monitor the post installation and told me that it is my responsibility to do so not theirs. The now dying grass is because it was necessary to hire a different company to redo everything. Unfortunately, the owner does not own up to the short-comings of his company or live up to his own mission statement.
UPDATE: Yes he lied, because the are was not prepared before sod delivery They did not start to do any prep work until three days after it the sod was delivered. You should not allow this service provider to take advantage of people. I have the dates and times of the progress with pictures for proof. Also they charged me for the so called extra dirt to shore up . He is blatantly falsifying events. Too continue hosting this company would be a direct reflection on Angie's list as a customer tool.

FAQs for residential design projects in Alexandria, LA
One starting point to find a local home builder is to collect suggestions from friends and neighbors. However, it’s still wise to do some more research before you hire a builder. Read reviews to supplement any word-of-mouth recommendations. Check sources like Angi that have standards and criteria in place to screen the pros it lists can also help you find more reputable local home builders.
The cost of home remodeling is $50,000 for the average homeowner. However, this cost can range anywhere from $3,000 for a small projectto $170,000 for a whole home remodel. Factors like project size, location, and room type all affect your overall cost. For example, bedroom remodeling costs are one of the least expensive projects, costing about $1,500 to $5,500 per bedroom. However, a kitchen remodel has a significant cost range, totaling anywhere from $14,500 to over $70,000.
Typically, it’s more affordable to buy an existing home than it is to build a new one. New construction loan interest rates tend to be higher than interest rates for traditional mortgages. Additionally, the cost of materials is likely higher when building a new home than it was when an existing home was built (unless it’s a very new one). You’re also paying for all new appliances, finishes, permits, inspections, and connections for water, gas, and electricity.
Yes, most states require home remodeling contractors to be licensed, and for good reason. Hiring an unlicensed home remodeling contractor could lead to poor quality work, costly future expenses, and potential code violations.
As you browse our pro listings, take note of the “Angi Approved” badge. Angi Approved businesses meet our standards for certification which include:
The owner, principal, or relevant manager passed a criminal background check
Required to have applicable state and local licenses
Maintain an average star rating of 3.0 or better on our network, if they have at least one review
Paying to advertise their services
Meeting any other eligibility criteria required by Angi
Keep in mind licensing is different from certifications. A license is a legal requirement to operate a business, while certifications are voluntary.
The best time of year to remodel your home is late winter and early spring when fewer homeowners are thinking about projects and pros are more available. Also consider the type of remodel you want and plan ahead as much as possible. For example, the summer is a great time of year to update your fireplace, but winter is a better option for fixing foundations and building room additions.
