Situation

Your landscaping or snow contractor isn't working out

Most contractor problems trace to a vague scope: no frequency, no clear-by time, no logs. To switch cleanly, check your current contract's termination terms, write the scope you actually need, and get a quote against it. Fall is the best time to set up snow; late winter for grounds.

Cleared sidewalk and parked cars in a snowy community

Residents complaining, a plow that showed up at 10, and no log to prove anything either way.

How do you switch contractors cleanly?

  1. Read the termination and notice terms in your current contract.
  2. Write down what went wrong: missed visits, timing, quality, communication.
  3. Turn that into a written scope: frequency, clear-by times, logs, contact.
  4. Walk the property with the new crew and get a written quote against the scope.
  5. Time it: snow contracts before the first storm, grounds before spring.

We're a referral service: one local crew gets your request and quotes against your scope.
