      Hi ***,

      We are sorry that you felt the need to write this incomplete negative review of our company even after all of your communications with you and our generous offer of a 20% discount of our services to your property. Unfortunately, we are unable to work against Mother Nature and sometimes she wins. We acknowledge that your property washed out due to the rain following the terraseeding service and believe that this happened due to your property conditions (subgrades and the actual material of the undersoil). Our terraseeding service produces great results most of the time and we only perform services when we feel that they will have a 100% success rate. 

      We had tried to remedy the situation and came back to do an over seeding to try and get the grass boosted to grow and produce a desirable result. You are looking for our company to come back and redo the entire service for free when the service failed due to Mother Nature. We work our hardest to uphold our good reputation and we stand by our work. Unfortunately, landscaping services can sometimes be unsuccessful due to unforeseen weather or other unforeseen factors in regards to the earth and Mother Nature. We apologize that the terraseeding did not come out the way that we all wanted it to. We were hired to provide a full service in which we completed, and Mother Nature made it impossible for the service to work with your property.
