Review of West Coast Landscaping

Chris Starke, crew leader for Westcoast Landscape ...

Chris Starke, crew leader for Westcoast Landscape & Lawn Strikes Out Again. You would think that after the fuss we made when his crew cut up our Palm a few months ago, that Chris would finally get it right.
A good crew leader would put together a list of the few residences in our 40-unit development (and for all of his properties) to not trim. If anyone at Westcoast looked before they leaped, they could easily tell that our landscaping is new and different and to STAY AWAY.

But Chris sends laborers to our neighborhood without any direction, that don t speak English, and don t know who he is.

We have spent countless hours hand pruning and weeding our landscaping. In a few quick minutes, Chris ruins the work that we have done with a power trimmer. We own a power trimmer, but have NEVER used it to trim our schefflera. We spent two hours picking up the debris and hand pruning the mess that Chris left us.

Chris latest management decision was to put 3 STAY AWAY WESTCOAST signs in our landscaping. We are into neighborhood beautification, not to UGLY It up with these signs. As a matter of fact, two other villas have these signs and Westcoast still power trims their landscaping. What a Joke! The crews work hard, but apparently their crew leader hardly works at his job.
