Sylvan Gardens

In April 2019 I received a quote from Sylvan Gardens for transplanting flowers from a bed in my front yard and cutting and trimming a tree and a shrub. I signed a contract on May 1 for Sylvan Gardens to perform this work. Four weeks later, the work on the contract had yet to be started. I e-mailed the owner of Sylvan Gardens and asked when the work would be done. He replied that the work would be performed next week. The work wasn't performed the following week, however. I then sent the owner of Sylvan Gardens an e-mail expressing my displeasure that the work on this contract had yet to be performed. He then responded with an e-mail stating that Sylvan Gardens was terminating all lawn maintenance at my home. Sylvan Gardens had been providing lawn-maintenance services at my home for two years. Sylvan Gardens was either unwilling or unable to satisfy this customer and fulfill its contract in a timely manner. Sylvan Gardens specializes in commercial lawn work, with less-profitable residential work being a side business that's not its first priority. Sylvan Gardens seems to have more landscaping work than it can handle, especially in light of the shortage of foreign landscaping labor. I wouldn't recommend Sylvan Gardens for residential landscaping work.
