E from Kitchener

I called Helmutz to do some work on our front yard. They charged us a fortune and the work they did was awful. They re-sodded the grass and planted new plants. But, they didn't kill off the weeds that were already there and they didn't advise us to either. I told the guy who came that we didn't know very much about landscaping (this was our first house) and he promised he would come up with a simple plan. But, he didn't address the weeds that we already had. We had scourge and it is now all through the new grass and new plants. They did the work in the fall and in the spring, you could really see how damaged the new grass and plants were. I called to complain and they sent someone out to look. She said that they should have killed off the weeds before doing the new work. She admitted they made an error. And suggested I use a tiny paint brush to kill off the weeds all through our new garden. I figured that would probably take me 2 weeks straight to kill off all the weeds in our garden. When I called and spoke with Helmut himself, he was extremely rude. He said she shouldn't have told us they made a mistake and could not have cared less that our grass now looks WAY worse than it did before they came. I would not recommend Helmutz landscaping to anyone. They do shoddy work and are rude and aggressive. I have never been so disappointed with a company in my life.

I called DrainCom because I had a water pipe leaking in my laundry room. Anatoli showed up on time, assessed the problem easily and fixed the leak in no time. He was very professional and courteous and I would highly recommend DrainCom to others.
