Common Grounds Lanscaping

unknown

This company is completely unethical and dishonest.
They came and quoted the job. I asked them specifically if they were interested in the work, and they emphatically said yes. At the time of contracting, they said they were about two weeks out depending on weather.
The month of May had 6 rain days in excess of 0.1 inch. Despite that, 6 weeks later they could not begin to estimate when they would show up. I have e-mailed and phoned about every 2 weeks, and always get the same "rain put us behind" speach.
After 6 weeks they said, well you can go somewhere else if you want. We won't mind. Well as of June 2, every landscaper in the country is booked for the rest of summer and fall. Their offer was only the beginning of the end.
Later they e-mailed, rather than called person to person, that they were refusing the work. Again, the rain that finally happened after 6 weeks made it impossible to determine "an exact date". They could have estimated, but chose not to. I can only assume they loaded up with new work that had more profit. His e-mail said "we worked Saturdays, Sundays, and the Memorial day weekend. Interesting as this past week end I tried to contact Kevin, he was "out of town".
If you have any thoughts about using this company, understand that their work, their contract, means nothing. They may or may not show up and leave you stranded like they did me.
I think all Angie's list subscribers need to actively rebel against these type of unethical companies. Don't do business with this bunch. You will regret it in the end.

My experience has gone very well. The staff is very professional and knowledgeable in their field. The pricing is reasonable and I have been pleased with their services. I would recommend this company to others.
