Priced Right Tree and Lawn

This man said he could build a 6ft wooden privacy fence. He didn't know the first thing about it. Couldn't even line up the holes for the posts. I had to show him how to use a plum line. He had only a shovel for the job. We had to suggest he rent an auger, which we paid for. He ended up with some of the posts only buried a foot deep. He didn't mix the cement properly and the posts were wobbly even after drying. We had to undo all his work and redo it. Thank God our neighbors intervened and are helping us build it properly. This man was very hard to get along with and argued and yelled if you disagreed with him. He calls himself a Christian in his ads which is why my wife hired him. He sure doesn't act like one or conduct business like one. Steer clear.
Update: after finishing the support posts and two by fours we discovered he had ordered 80 more two by fours than we needed! We are sure we would have not seen a refund for this. Another $400 stolen by Jeff Diebold. This con artist should be tarred and feathered.

Do your research before you sign a work order with Priced Right Tree & Lawn

The owner met me on April 19th at approximately 1:40 PM. He gave me a bid for the work I needed done, which was reasonably priced, so I told him I wanted to get it scheduled. He told me that the work would be performed on Thursday or Friday of the following week, depending on the weather.

When I signed the work order, I noted that the conditions of the work order included the following verbiage:

"Fifty percent of written price due company immediately if any portion of stated work is cancelled by customer, changed, contracted to anyone else, done by anyone else, regardless of when cancelled/other."

The owner downplayed this verbiage and based on the recommendation from my friend, I was not concerned that there would be any issues, so I signed the work order.

After the owner left at 2:40 PM, I realized I had not checked on whether or not the company was licensed and insured. As I researched the information, I began to encounter a large number of negative reviews. Many of these reviews alluded to legal action being taken against customers when they attempted to cancel their work orders.

Being unable to find any positive reviews, regarding the company or its services, I messaged the owner via Facebook at 3:38 PM and told him I was cancelling the order. I also acknowledged the verbiage of his work order and asked for a total amount due.

At 4:32 PM, I called the owner by phone and explained my reasons for cancelling the work order and again asked for a total amount due, based on the work order I had signed.

When I turned on my phone at 6:05 AM on April 20th, I recieved a message via Facebook stating that the total I owed for cancelling my work order was $417.50, 50% of the quote total.

Outcome: A work order scheduled for 8 days out, cancelled within 2 hours of signing cost me $417.50 without any actual work being performed. Customer beware!
