"ORIGINALLY - July 2021, this company cut my grass and used a riding lawn mower to go down the side of my house which doesn't have much room due to a fence. During this service my water faucet on the side of my house was BADLY damaged. Both Gregory Simmons and Martennace Ingram promised to pay for the repair. We are now in November... 3 different companies have been out to give an estimate on repairs. NONE have completed the repairs due to poor communication from Martennace Ingram and Gregory Simmons. Gregory Simmons has stopped responding to my messages. Martennace Ingram has made several appointments and has had several companies come to my home but none have completed repairs because he has not given them the OK. Here I am 4 months later still unable to use the faucet on the side of my home due to the negligence of this company. When I made him aware that I would seek legal action he changed the name of his company and gave me a story about him and all of his colleagues having a falling out and that he no longer does business with them because they are unprofessional and not as skilled. Each member in ownership placed blame on the other. UPDATE - JUNE 2022 Martennace Ingram sent a representative from Integrity Plumbing out to repair damage that was done to my home by his company. I contacted him afterwards to inform him that the spout was barely operable and to inform him that I am injuring my hands when attempting to turn the spout. He assured me that he would send someone back out to PROPERLY repair my water spout better than what the last company had done. No one has been back out and the spot is still operating poorly. I have contacted him and he referred me to his management team. The representative from his management team was unable to resolve the issue. He reached back out to me personally. After discussing it over with him he agreed to find someone else to repair the damages. After AGREEING PER RECORD to repair my water spout he began advising me to reach back out to his former colleague Greg Simmons as he is the one responsible for destroying my spout. The pipe INSIDE the wall of my home is bent and 4 companies have advised me that they will have to cut into my wall and replace the pipe to PROPERLY repair this issue. EACH company has advised me that Martennace is not giving them the OK to repair the issue. Martennace reached back out to me and AGREED AGAIN to send someone back out to ACTUALLY FIX IT.. Since our previous conversation I have not heard a word from him and he has removed me from his social media accounts. I am simply wanting a resolution to this issue!"

"Wow, really really awful. The insulation they started to put in my attic ended up throughout my entire home.- 3200 sq. ft. of debri on light fixtures, picture frames, couches, comforters. carpets, every single square inch of my home. Complete and total nightmare that filled up 3 separate vacuum canisters and I am positive I have not gotten it all.. When I called to speak to the owner I was told "There is no owner" as it is just corporate owned?? Then he said he would send a cleaning crew out and call me in an hour or so with the time they would be here. 1 week later shockingly enough I have not received a call. The 10 minutes they were there before we stopped them from further damage did not cost me but I would have gladly paid them $1000 just not to spray my entire house with snowflakes mixed with powder fine dust full of insulation. Single worst thing that has happened to my home in 14 years. I will be filing a formal complaint with BBB. T"

"This is not a lawn services company in Abilene"

"We have some trees in our backyard that we thought was a part of our property but it turns out it was a part of the churches property behind our house. One of the trees fell after a storm, and the church asked for our assistance to find a good tree service. We called Fortec and they came out and gave an exceptional bid. The church ended up hiring Fortec so they came out to begin work. First, they told us they own their equipment, but they actually rent. They then say they have their own crew, but it turns out they actually hire people off craigslist to complete projects for them. They say they start at 8am, but they wouldn't show up until about 9:30, and actually start work at 10am. Originally this job was supposed to take 2 days, it ended up taking a week. When they cut the trees, they ended up damaging the churches parking lot. Instead of cutting the tree in sections and letting it come down safely, they cut the tree down in one whole piece, which put a huge hole in the churches parking lot. The guy who runs Fortec, Steve, did not at the time tell the church he damaged the parking lot. instead he tried to repair it without anyone noticing with very cheap asphalt. He did not even tell the church he did this, they found out on their own. They tried to tell him the patch job he did was insufficient, but he refused to repair what he did. He told us he was going to come back on the 28th of September to finish, but to this day he hasn't returned. I tried to contact him on the 30th, and he told me he was not coming back because the church was refusing to pay him. He said they wont pay him because of the hole in the parking lot, but the originally tree service wasn't even finished. He is refusing to come back to finish the work. I would not recommend hiring this company, he is not trustworthy at all."
