Experts encourage homeowners to 'get everything in writing' to avoid possible scams from local landscapers.
Having a beautiful lawn filled with blooming flowers, stonepath brick work, and water features can be appealing, but it can take a lot of work and be a tricky project. With the fall in full swing, the Better Business Bureau serving Mainland BC & Yukon is prepared with several tips you can use to find the perfect landscaper for your fall project.
Nearly 20 times more than original fee A Delta, B.C., woman in her late 60s hired a landscaping company to remove her concrete patio due to cracking and lifting in October 2022. The initial quote was a $250 deposit to start the work. However, more than two weeks after jackhammering had begun, the landscaper claimed that more work was needed without providing visible proof and offered a new estimate that included potential drain tile replacement.
"When you're hiring someone to do a big job, such as landscaping your property, it's very important to get scope of work required and price from different companies," says BBB spokesperson Aaron Guillen. "You shouldn't just go with the first person who answers your call, because they might not be the best choice. Unfortunately, that's exactly what happened in this situation, and it ended up costing a lot of money.
