Okay, but do not pay them until they fill up their holes. Otherwise you may wait.

the job was finished neatly, grassed in area was left in good shape. the work was done in a rather tight area considering the decking nearby and the limited work space. The site manager did a good job explaining what was to be done and how the site was to be finished. The job was done on time and all my questions were answered.

This is a terrible company. They did not know what they were doing. These people are incompetent, money grubbing idiots. They caused me an awful lot of extra work. I was not impressed with their work at all. I'm surprise they are even in business.
