Not all landscapers can “landscape”. Hired a guy to build a pad for a shed which included a small retaining wall. The guy doesn’t own a level, and the end result is visibly not level. I showed him with my laser level what was going on, and he didn’t believe me. He started adding MORE material to the high spot.
He was aggressive about needing to be paid. Very aggressive. I paid him since he knows where we live. Unless we sue him and win, we’re out $4800, and to have it done correctly (with a fancier wall) will be $6500.
TLDR: Don’t hire a lawn service company to build anything.
