I got up, moved the car out front and applied the third coat of sealant to the garage apron.
I got a response from John (landscaper) this morning. He said he would be back in town today and said he would call or I could "text me what else you're thinking we need to do". This is really irritating. Two weeks ago yesterday, John came out (he needed more money) and made a list of what else needs to be done. He also promised the work would be finished THAT week. Of course that did not happen. Last Friday, his crew did show up and straightened the zelkova, trimmed the junipers and replaced three of the boxwood. I responded back to John that other items on HIS list were:
- There are two junipers that need to be replaced
- There is one more boxwood that needs to be replaced
- You were going to work with the fence guy on these gates
- You were going to advise us on what we might do about these "growths" coming out of the Canadian Cherry root ball (I have cut them back numerous time now)
- You said you might have some more of the polymeric sand you used on the chessboard paver joints
- You said you would get with Wally regarding showing us how to winterize the irrigation system AND regarding changes to some of the irrigation heads
John has several times mentioned that he has already replaced the junipers twice. Again, while this is not relevant, I mentioned to John that the original junipers (and boxwoods) were installed on October 30, 2015. On March 8, 2016, he replaced three of the five junipers. The two that he did not replace are the ones that now need to be replaced.
The landscaping saga continues.
