I signed a weekly yard-maintenance contract for $40/week plus tax. I was told Condon's policy was to mark up invoices 7% if customers used a credit card, but I always paid with a check.
Nevertheless, every month they first added a 7% mark-up and then showed a 5% discounted cash price if paid on time. When I complained that my contract stated net plus tax only, I was told I also had to pay a 2% Administration fee. This fee was not shown anywhere on the contract nor discussed with me verbally and I refused to pay it. Although my representative verbally agreed, the invoices continued as above. I finally fired them out of exasperation.
Epilogue: they had the nerve to send me a final invoice demanding something like $900 in unpaid fees. I demanded a line-item statement in return proving what I owed. It's been two months and I've heard no more from them. Please take my experience into account if you consider doing business with this company.
"Member, I am sorry that the plants had scale which didn't go away. Please in the future let us know that the problem was not solved so we can resolve it. Often times spraying needs to occur 2-3 times before the disease is cured. If that fails, we're happy to replace the plants at no charge. I sure hope you will contact us again for future planting. Thank you for your nice review."
They did a pretty good job. There were three men to do the work and it was nearly eight hours of work. They cleaned two ponds by draining out the water, taking the leaves off and filling it with clean water. The house is at the end of the town house complex and they trimmed out the vines and that took a lot of time. I met the guy who came out to give the estimate. He was really nice. But he sent out another guy who did not get back to us as quickly as we would have liked. They were not very responsive. Their pricing was pretty average. I was pleased with their work. I would definitely consider using them in the future.
