VINZ LAWN & LANDSCAPE

Looked like a lot of work. Looked pretty good first year. Looked better second year, except rose bushes died and were replaced at no charge. Third year, everything was looking beautiful, except for more dead roses. I planted other items in their place. No instructions about care of any of these plants. I think birch was planted too close to house, as branches are lying on my roof and hanging over onto my porch. About 3 feet farther away would have been better as plants grew. Now have major problem with weigela, which have become my favorites; they bloom profusely with bright pink flowers and are beautiful. Problem is, one of the 3 was planted only a few inches from gas meter, and second (of 3) is about 18 inches the other way. Branches from both shrubs now cover gas meter, and I have had complaints from MG and E, and I was told the shrubs had to be removed so they could read and maintain the meter. Today, to appease the gas company, I trimmed away 80% of the closest one and probably 50% of the other one. Broke my heart. I don't even know now if they are salvageable, since they are 6 years old and most branches are missing. I also don't know where they could be replanted. I am 65 years old, and don't think I can dig them up myself, but can no longer afford to pay someone to fix it, since I am no longer working full time. No instructions were left for the care of over $2000 worth of plants, and I also cannot get to the water faucet in the front of the house, due to plant overgrowth. Yes, it was lovely the first couple of years, but a landscaped should have been able to plan more accurately, how much room the plants were going to need in the future, and made allowances for their growth. The tree in the front yard also died. At this point, I think he needs to repair the damages that he caused. It's very depressing to lose at least 3/4 of my favorite shrubs! I have called him twice, but he does not return my calls.
