Chris and his Four Seasons Lawn Maintenance staff are the BEST in the business. I live 5 hours away from my parents, and I finally convinced my Daddy ( 73 years young) that he did not need to get up on a ladder anymore. Chris was quick to respond to my request for service/help! Gus was the gentleman who came to service my parents' house and did an AMAZING job!! My parents were absolutely impressed by Gus's care and respect in completing the job. Thank you, Chris, Gus, and ALL the Four Seasons Lawn Maintenance staff for taking care of my parents! You guys are AWESOME!! Service: Lawn mowing & maintenance

First, let me say that Four Seasons does GREAT work. For that I give them credit. Im very pleased with the outcome. However, if you use them, I advise you to ask the following question when receiving your estimate: Does this estimate include EVERYTHING we just discussed? Then go item by item and be CERTAIN that you make them list EVERYTHING you are expecting on that invoice. Case in point: Chris - really nice guy by the way, and made the heavens part to get my work done- met me at the property. We directly discussed the following: 1. Bring in soil to fill in low spots and redirect the water flow. 2. Add grass seed and cover with wheat straw. 3. Trim bushes at the front of the house (I actually did 4 of the 5 myself before they came out anyway as they were blocking the front walkway). 4. Add mulch in the area along the front of the house and in a new bed created when the soil was added. 5. Mow around the house on all four sides. 6. Clear brush from extended back yard (later deleted). And heres the important one: 7. Cut low hanging branches blocking the view of the house, and to allow more light to the new grass seed. Chris himself even added they would remove the branches that were hitting the roof and siding - something I hadnt even NOTICED, and I thanked him for seeing that. So far, so good. The estimate was received, and the quote with the clearing of the back area deleted was $2800. Now this is where my advice earlier to make sure each and every item you DISCUSSED is SPECIFICALLY included as a line item in that quote. I guess that was my bad, as, even though we had specifically discussed every one of the 7 items listed above in person, items 4 and 7- the adding of mulch and trimming of the trees - was not on the estimate. So, when the invoice was actually received, it was $3775! $975 - or 26% MORE THAN the estimate. This additional expense - as listed on the invoice was for: Tree work: $245 - limb up two tree - haul off cuttings Mulch / Pine Straw: $730 - install mulch in front beds and newly formed bed above the wall $595 - install pine straw around both trees $135 All except the pine straw was SPECIFICALLY DISCUSSED IN OUR ON-SITE MEETING. Now while the pine straw was definitely needed, and I have no problem at all with that $135, I believe the tree trimming and mulch SHOULD HAVE BEEN DONE as part of the original estimate as they were SPECIFICALLY discussed. on site. And when this issue was brought to light, no compromise was even offered. This is where I recommend that EVERY SPECIFIC ITEM YOU DISCUSS APPEARS ON THAT ESTIMATE - and then Ask the question Is this everything you will be doing? That would have uncovered the need for the pine straw which should have been added. Expensive lesson learned. Hopefully on both sides.
