    Answered
    Fred’s Tree & Lawn service came out to trim some trees at our neighbors house on Monday October 10, 2022. They arrived at approximately 9:30 am and worked until about 2:00pm. They had pulled their bucket truck in between our two houses to trim a tree that was hanging over our property. They unlocked our gate without asking permission and entered our property. After they finished their work we noticed that our siding was damaged. I called Fred’s on Tuesday October 11, 2022 to discuss the damage. The owner was extremely rude and argumentative immediately. I tried to voice my concern but he cut me off and denied any responsibility. He said he would come out to our home to look at the damage however he never showed up.

    If there were negative stars, thats what I would give him. On May 20, 2021, Freds Tree and Lawn Service was. O tracked by my neighbor to remove a tree in their backyard. There was no street access to their tree which was very near our property line. That morning my neighbor called and asked if they could use my driveway and back yard to get access to the tree. I was told any damage would be taken care of. **** or his employees drove a large truck as well as a wood chipper down my driveway, through my back yard, along the edge of my back yard to gain access to the tree. They were still working there when I had to leave for an appointment. Later, when my son-in-law came home from work, he saw the huge tire marks in the grass and that the top cap of mt sewer line was broken off and missing. The tire marks went over that area. The next day, I called the neighbor. I said it needed to be fixed. I would call a plumber. They told me to call ****. I did call him. First of all, he was very arrogant and argumentative. I told him they did damage. He said he didnt see anything. That was on a Friday. The following Monday, he came to my house with my neighbor and brought a sewer cap. I asked him to put it on. He refused. I asked the neighbor if he wanted to put it on. He said that he did not. I told them I would call a plumber to put on the $3.00 part. After some arguing,**** took the cap and placed it on the cement stoop by my front door. Then he turned his back and walked away I had to pay the plumber $145 for the repair. I sent the invoice to Freds and he never responded. I have heard that he has treated many people in similar way and refused to take care of any damages.
