Thumbs down Bowels Lawn service

Do not use this service. The owner himself said he does not care about customer relations. They missed a week and are supposed to cut weekly. It was not due to weather.
When I asked about it he said, that either like what they do and when they do it or find someone else. I have seen other reviews that say they rude and do not treat customers well. Stay away from them.

Assuming the OP meant to type “Bowles”, not Bowels, and assuming there is only one Bowles operating in The Villages, this post serves a good reminder to do your due diligence before hiring anyone to perform work at your home.

A 20 second Google search (not to mention a search of this site) revealed numerous reviews about this company, similar to what the OP alleges.

It seems that a lot of businesses do not care anymore about how they talk to, act or respect their customers lately. You would think that times now are tougher than most and they should bend over to please their customers, but so many examples have been posted lately with complains from folks, stating how they are treated at restaurants, franchises and the like. Do not know if the younger generation is less caring or if a lot of folks are just upset or angry. Either way, their behaviors have put a damper on going out for a pleasant meal or soliciting a company to do business with. I do hope things do smooth over in the future.

I haves used Bowles for 2 years and they ALWAYS did a GREAT job. Talked to the owner last week and he informed me he was getting rid of a large number of customers and eliminating some of their services, but I was not one of them. They have always been dependable, I have seen other companies come and go in my neighborhood.
