BUYER BE WARE On 12/7/21 Chris Walker from DK Farm & Nursery…read morecame out and we reviewed the job together I had multiple things needed to be done. moving, relaying installing new pavers in my back yard, build up side yard with top soil and relaying pavers, trim a hedge, remove 2 over grown Muhly grasses and replace with new 2 Muhly grasses, install a 60' Rubbermaid boarder along beds, remove some yard waste and cut a palm frond that was hitting the roof. I already had the boarder so he instructed me to purchase 6 additional pavers, which l didn't need, and he would supply the grasses and top soil. He was a very personal young man, who assured me that he would personally make sure that the job went right. He sent me an estimate of, $565.64 with only the total for labor without the jobs line itemed out, beyond the pavers. I assumed it was because it was done on his phone it limited him for characters. I realize now that was my mistake, that is give Chris the benefit of the doubt, as we had a long conversation about the project, and how much problems that I was having finding reliable and competent service people/companies. The next day Chris arrived with another young man, who he introduced as Corey and together we went over what the plan was for the boarder and pavers. Right off the bat I knew something was amiss as Chris brought no tools to do the job and used my shovel, sledge hammer, yard clippers, etc., He continually asked me to look at the work and each time I had to come up with suggestions as to what would be better. We came to a stand still as Chris told me he would not remove the dirt that was needed in order to allow the pavers to be recessed into the ground by the board of the patio. Also, he was unable to cut any pavers as he had no tools to do so, to allow for any type of professional finish to the install, see image. Five of the pavers on the pathway along the back yard are not filled in and or not level, so they rock. After 3 or 4 attempts at the side yard install the layout of pavers was finally OK, though the ground was left uneven with multiple small rocks left all over the area. The removal and reinstall of the new grasses were fine. In general, my property was left in a muddy, dis-shoveled mess. During the 2 hours Chris and Corey were here, Corey had continually made glib comments around me. Which I found highly unprofessional for someone on a job site. One of his comments was directed at me personally about my age. I 'm a single older female, and didn't feel comfortable being around the two young men any longer. I was rather confused as to why a service person would be so unprofessional on a job, only to find out that he didn't work for DK but was Chris's personal friend, who is here visiting from Kissimmee. The hedges and fronds were never cut and I didn't bring it up as by this point, I had had enough of Chris and Corey and just wanted them to leave by home. I gave them a check and they left. Beyond the inappropriate comments I was worried that I would be liable for Corey not being a paid employee of DK's if anything were to happen. After they left, I called Chris and told him that I was very unhappy with his work and that he needed to come back and fix it. He wanted to come right back, but I didn't want to have to deal with Corey again so I told him that I would get back to him with other time to come back. I also mentioned about the him not taking care of the hedge or palm frond, he argued with me that that wasn't part of the job as it wasn't listed on the estimate. I pointed out neither was the boarder, or grass install, so how was he able to use the estimate as the point of truth. He became irritated and told me that he did that as a favor, and not part of the job. He did do one thing as gratis, he cut down a small 3 branched planted and placed a couple of pavers for a place for outside trash can. I when back out found even more issues with job, called him back and he wouldn't pick up. I then realized that I was pretty much screwed so I left a message that I canceled the payment and want an adjustment to my bill. The next day I spoke with David Koning the owner the next day, who basically told me that he didn't believe me but Chris that all other labor was a favor i.e., boarder install and install of grasses. I told him that I didn't want Chris back out as he doesn't know what he is doing and I didn't want to have to deal with him and his either lack of knowledge or work ethic again, I would be happy to settled the bill at a reduced payment of $250.00, as I will have to hire someone else to fix the pavers. But he said that I was bound to the signed estimate, also that anyone who showed up to a job was covered under DK and not the home owner and that he was doubtful that I felt intimidated and was just using as an excuse. He told me that there will be legal action if he does receive full payment in 10 days. To be rid of this very unpleasant experience I mailed the full payment and ha
