Hidden price agenda
we moved in to a new house 6 months ago and imediatly started looking for a landscaper as our yard front and back was left to grow wild by the realestate agent. we called many and finaly decided to go with the aformentioned landscaper the price was rite, sixty five dollars to clean and cut both front and back. the day they came the job was finished in an hour and a half and i was verry satisfied. we recieved the bill three weeks later and as they said the first time was sixty fve dollars plus thirty five for each additional cut, no problem. Soon the end of the summer had arrived and i called the landscaper to cut the grass one more time also to pick up the leaves and trim the sides one last time basicly what he did the very first time he came there were also some vines on the corner of the house i wanted cut down, all of this i figured would cost about what it did the first time as it was the same amount of work or less. The day came they came four guys and it took them one hour. when i got home that day i was pleased it looked good and i thought it would be about sixty five or at the most no more than one hundred dollars keep in mind my yard is not big its a one family cape. One month later i recieve the bill for that one hours worth of work and its three hundred and fifty dollars, as you can imagine i was irrate, we called him to talk to him we always missed him we always spoke to his voice mail he did call back once acting as though he had no idea what we wanted. Finaly he sends us a revised bill for two hundred which we finaly decided to pay with a note indicating that his services are no longer needed and why!
