Following the building of my laneway home, I hired Carageen to do the entire landscaping. He appeared to be a good guy and I paid him half upfront. He finished off 95% of the work. He needed to come back in spring to plant the remaining bushes and fix discrepancies. I made the mistake of paying the entire balance including the future work needed, which he was to perform the upcoming spring. Come Spring he never showed up to complete the work. He finally replied to my message and promised to come and finish of the work but he has never shown up. Fast forward 9 months to this review, he no longer replies to my countless messages. I also let him use my string level for my job which he has not returned to me. Carageen is primarily a one man show for my job. His workmanship is very AVERAGE for what he charges. I would NEVER hire this company again and would NOT recommend him to anyone, as he has not lived up to his end of the bargain. There are many landscapers out there that would do a better job for the same money. Go elsewhere.
