Complaint Review: DOUG HANRATTY - PECAN GROVES LANDSCAPPING

HIRED PECAN GROVES LANDSCAPPING IN GROVES, TEXAS IN AUGUST OF 2000 TO DO A COMPLETE JOB. TEAR OUT, NEW BEDS, PLANTS, MULCH, MOSS ROCK, AND A FLAG STONE PATIO WERE INCLUDED IN THE DRAWING AND THE BID.

SEPTEMBER OF 2000 MY friend ASKED IF I COULD GO AHEAD AND SETTLE UP WITH HIM AND HE WOULD BE FINISHED IN A COUPLE OF WEEKS. TO MAKE A LONG STORY SHORT HERE IT IS 11 MONTHS LATER AND I AM STILL WAITING.

I HAVE SEVERAL DEAD PLANTS, NO MOSS ROCK, VERY LITTLE MULCH, AND 1/2 THE FLAGSTONE NEEDED FOR THE PATIO THAT HAS NEVER BEEN PROPERLY BUILT. I EVEN GAVE THE GUY AND EXTRA $225.00 WHEN I SETTLED UP SO HE COULD BUY THE GRASS I NEEDED TO COMPLETE THE JOB. HEHE HAVE TO LAUGH TO KEEP FROM CRYING.

THIS GUY HAS BEEN A CUSTOMER AND I THOUGHT FRIEND FOR MANY YEARS. I HAVE SINCE DISCOVERED THAT I'M NOT THE ONLY ONE HE HAS PRACTICED THIS TYPE OF WORK ETHICS WITH. TOO BAD HE IS SUCH A NICE GUY THAT HE JUST SUCKED MANY OF US IN.
