On May 20, 2015, this company installed sod at my property. Today, the sod is dead despite regular watering and fertilizer.
On May 20, 2015, this company installed sod at my property. Today, the sod is dead despite regular watering and fertilizer. On this invoice, the company describes the yard as "approximately 200 square feet". In actuality, the yard is 1,400 square feet.
After discovering the dead sod, I contacted the company for supports. However, the company refused to replace. Apparently, they no longer complete this work. They also referred me to another company that refused to replace the sod at my expense.

Hi there,
I completed this work a little over 4 years ago. Before the work was started the client inquired about a guarantee concerning the sod:

Again, I have bragged about *** for 3 years. Could you complete this job on May 19 or so? And, much appreciate the care
(pre/post). I suspect there is a guarantee? Send the new quote and I will advise asap.

Hey ***,
I can guarantee the work, but not the sod. I guarantee that we will give the back lawn the best chance possible survival for the future.
This means quality products and quality workmanship. Unfortunately so much relies upon the Care that the sod receives after we leave the property. I will send you detailed instructions on how to properly care for your investment.
May 19th works for us.
All the best,

Thanks ***. Is the sod coming from a reputable place? Again, this is my rental property. I will have to trust my tenants to water regularly. Chance you could factor regular visits/inspections to make sure that all is flowing well. Should any fertilizers be added? Please send the revised
invoice.
------------------------------------------
I sent the client watering instructions, provided the sod to them at cost, charging only labour and rental fees for the specialized equipment needed to complete the job. The client provided post dated checks as payment through the remainder of the 2015 season. The client signed up for other services during 2016. The client signed up for other services during 2017. The client signed up for other services during 2018. The client signed up for other services during 2019. During this 4 year period of time, the client would make various requests regarding the other services that I offer. I did my best to comply with all requests and the client seemed satisfied and continued to sign up each year.
When the client contacted me on May 20, 2019, I informed them that I no longer offer sod installation services. I referred the client to a 3rd party who apparently was unable to perform the work. I then referred the client to another 3rd party who placed a quote but did not receive the job.
The client has signed with my company for other services every year since the sod was installed. I have always stood by my contracts and my word with the client. I was very clear that the workmanship was covered but I could not guarantee the sod's survival due to the care of the sod being out of my hands.
I believe that I have satisfied our agreement.
excellent service and integrity....great judge of character in hiring his crew. always timely, friendly and a pleasure to know and to cap things off, the fees are very reasonable
Thomas Lawn Care has looked after my lawn and seasonal clean-ups for a few years, and as of this year, also does my snow removal. This is an outstanding company which provides top-notch service by employees who clearly enjoy their work. ***, ***, is easily reached, and follows up quickly on any questions or concerns expressed by customers. I highly recommend this business which runs on sound knowledge, hard work and excellent customer service.
Hi ***,
It is always a pleasure doing business with you! Thank you for your kind words; we are looking forward to taking care of your property again this year!
Cheers
