***************, the owner of Westlake Home and Commercial Services, also owns Lone Star Land Clearing but uses the former company for billing purposes. Minutes after completing the job on my property, he sent threatening texts and emails demanding payment, despite his invoice granting a 30-day payment term. He cleared 7 acres of trees and fence for $18,400 and then tried to demand additional payment, even though our agreement was based on hours, not acreage. While his employees are commendable, I advise steering clear of ***************.
Westlake Home & Commercial Services Response

Dear BBB,
Mr. Day has never done business with Westlake Home & Commercial Services. He did hire another company I own that is non-related (Lone Star Land Clearing) to clear some land on his property in ******* (******************* also known as *******************) and when he was presented the invoice, he began acting erratic and refused to pay his bill. He agreed to approx. $6,800.00 in additional work in person with me directly. when Mr. *** was presented the final invoice, His response was that I did not get the change order in writing and that he was not going to pay for the additional work for that reason. This man is a fraud and thief. We have a signed contract stating the terms and conditions that Mr. *** signed and agreed to. We will be pursuing legal action against him for non-payment as well as slandering my other companies online.
If you would like to see the contract that he signed as well as the emails supporting our claims for his non-payment, feel free to email me at ***************************.
I HAVE COPIED AND PASTED HIS LAST CORRESPONDENCE to Lone Star Land Clearing below.
"JT,
Perfect!My bank opens at 9:00 AM tomorrow, so I can have the cashier's check made out to ******** Land Clearing at *******************, located at *********************************************************, by no later than 12 noon. I will leave the check in a secure location where my tools are kept. I'll send a photo to clarify tomorrow,but it will be in my solar generator box, if you rememberright under my two security cameras. Good doing business with you! Your crew did an amazing job despite all the rain. I just think using a non-tracked vehicle on my land isn't ideal, especially after we got 3 inches of rain in 72 hours.
Take your time moving the equipment. Its on the pipeline, but Ive had crews there before with zero issues.
If you need a positive review online, let me know.
Very respectfully,

Do not work for this company! The owner find ways to not pay his employees or contractors. He threatens people if they try to speak up as well. He will deduct pay without warning or without any write-**** He will only approve pay raises or PTO verbally, but then when it's payday, he'll say he never agreed to those terms.
