Get matched with top haulers in Grant, MN

"We hired Lawns Are Us in August of 2018 (AKA Lawns-r-us and TCS, they have to do business under several names due to poor business practices). They came in with a competitive bid and tons of promises. Said it should only take 12 working days to do the job. We knew it was going to take more than that, but willing to move forward. The first week went relatively smooth other than the payments. They demanded to be paid upfront and every 3 days. The problem with this, is once they have their money, they have zero motivation to return to the job. Morgan said they had to quick do another job that would take 2 days tops....21 days later I was screaming at him to return. No apologies, and only false promises throughout the 3 weeks, "we'll be there tomorrow" and never shows. While they were away, it rained significantly and with our project left open, the water got under our pool and floated our pool liner (of which they accepted 0 responsibility for). Then came our pavilion. They didn't measure their footings for it correctly and it wasn't square. We incurred an additional $2500 from the builder to custom cut the entire pavilion. Morgan accepted the fact they screwed up, but in no way was going to cover any of the extra costs. His son Mark who is "In charge" couldn't have been worse to deal with. Refused to admit he screwed it up, even when his own builder told him it was screwed up. By this time it was early November and winter was here. They were only 75% done with our project, but fully paid for all of their work done. Morgan assured me that we were the first on the list in the spring. Spring came and nothing but broken promises, said they were coming for a month and never showed up. They left our whole side yard mud, a huge pile of rock, dirt and garbage in our front yard that we stared at for 6 months. They screwed up our outdoor kitchen (Again Mark can't read a tape measure), the openings for the grills were off and the entire bar was not square nor level. When we got real contractors out to finish it, their quote was "Whoever did this work shouldn't be installing bird baths, much less backyards." When the real contractors went to plant shrubs, we discovered, Lawns-R-Us threw rock and poly over an old rock bed. Now we have to dig it all out by hand and bring dirt in by hand. Finally the icing on the cake, we went to turn on the irrigation they installed and 1 of the old zones won't turn on, and everything they did in our backyard had to be re-done by professionals. They installed the drip lines ON THE OTHER SIDE OF OUR FENCE! And where there was no fence, they put the drip lines tight against the concrete. Last time I checked, concrete doesn't need water to survive, plants do. When any of this is brought to their attention, Mark becomes the worst person to deal with. He tries to tell you how difficult you are, he should flipping burgers, not landscaping. Zero customer service, and just a horrible person. When you pay $80k for a hack job that wasn't finished, you get upset. So to recap: -Screwed up our pavilion $2500 additional -Screwed up grill openings, have to live with it -Screwed up bar level $1200 additional -Pool liner floated $1000 additional -Quoted a countertop that wasn't available, next option was additional $2500 -Underbid loads of dirt removed (by 25 truckloads!) additional $5500 -Bar not square, just going to have to live with it off by 4" -Drains settled $250 additional to fix -Screwed up irrigation $1500 additional to fix -Screwed up shrub beds $1000 to fix -Put capstone on upside down $500 to fix -Put end piece of capstone in the middle $200 fix -Everything along the way was nickel and dimed, he wouldn't pickup a softball size piece of concrete left behind with trying to stick it to you. Out of all the contractors I've had at my home or business, they are hands down, THE WORST! And they charge and act like they are a premier landscape company, but couldn't be further from it. Learn from my mistakes and don't ever let these guys touch your project, YOU WILL REGRET IT!"

"Walls have were gouge into the drywall. Our hardwood floors were scratched and I had to ask the movers to put down a runner. We were quoted 4 hours and the move took 12. We were charged double. I was told that once a change order was submitted for additional time needed and a new cost I would be contacted to get the ok. We were quoted 4 hours and the move took 12 hours. Our estimate more than doubled. I understand that it was a big move but no one ever called me to inform me of the change in costs. 3 movers spent 1 hour trying to put back a door that was taken off to get furniture through."

"Cornell was hired to remove, rebuild and reline our chimney. We paid him his down payment , soon after he requested $4500 more to order the liner. He erected scaffold to complete the job, which ended up falling causing damage to our roof along with damage caused from dropping bricks on the roof. 4 months went by with little to no progress. Finally we received notice from his insurance company that he was dropped because of lack of payment. We were forced to higher a new chimney company to complete the job. At that point we found out Cornell had never ordered the liner that we paid for. We asked to have the $4500 returned but never received a response. I would highly recommend not allowing Cornell anywhere near anyone's roof. He is careless and unreliable."
