Austin Gardens Landscape

"Home owner called me back to provide additional services in Spring of 2018."

"We provided some work for this residence about 10+ months ago ( in 2014) as part of our "Big Deal" promotion last fall. We provided 4 man hours of clean up (2 men for 2 hours) . We have not done work there since. I have not spoken to client, but suspect she found one of my cards from previous work and has associated it with who ever did some work recently. Both Angie's List representatives and myself have tried to contact home owner for more information but no replies to emails and phone calls. I never worked for this client in 2015 as reported."

"The work we did for Mrs. [member name removed] as as part of our "Big Deal" promotion through Angie's List. We actually did the work last winter, in December or January, as I recall. She had just moved back into the house and wanted to start getting things back into order. We planted some Spring blooming bulbs, Daffodils maybe, for her. We also trimmed her trees and left the debris bundled for trash pick up. That was the last work that we did for this client."

"Early this spring, [member name removed] contacted us about complete yard care. He has a house locally in member information removed] that backs up to a drainage area. Minimal grass, a lot of shrubs in the front yard and backyard that is heavily shaded and no lawn. Loads of beds that needed to be weeded and trimmed. Little mulch, at the time. It was during the spring rush and because timing was short, I told [member name removed] that I would get him a written proposal within a couple of days. He stated it needed to be done right away. Since he was local, I sent the crew by to do a complimentary mow. We did the work and while I was preparing the written proposal, his wife accepted another bid from somebody else. He contacted me informing me of the events. I moved on to fill other requests. He contacted me again about a week later saying that the other contractor had already been dismissed. He accepted our proposal and when could we get back out there. We put him on our schedule for the next week. I escorted the crew myself when we showed up at our appointed time. I wanted to meet him and find out the particulars on what he was looking for. [member name removed] would not come to the door when I knocked and rang. I showed up to do the work twice. He was there because we saw him out on the deck smoking and attempted to talk with him to see what he wanted. Since he had fired the two previous contractors that spring, I wanted to find out why nobody could please him. I feel I now know the reason why last season's contractor wouldn't show up again, as he had mentioned on the phone. I had the crew do a light shrub trimming, weed pull, and standard mow. We did the same procedure the following week. We actually have mowed 3 times for the client and when it was felt that he couldn't be pleased, we parted and he was never charged. I had never heard from this client until this complaint. I have yet to meet [member name removed]."
