Is it just me?
Am I being overly picky or what?
Look at what I discovered after the landscape place was done the other day.
They said they didn't know how to deal with this.
I do.
You need woodfill and paint to fix the paint that was knocked off.
As for drain from the gutters, wow what a sad mess.
I'm going to try to find another to place to deal with this.
They were also ready to chop the dahlias down again but I caught them before they did.
I was in bed asleep when the damage occurred.
Let me know what you think.
I won't be leaving these pictures up here for too long so looky look while you can.
Opinions greatly appreciated.
What if anything should I do? 
God I hate this.
Where is a big man when I need one?

It takes time and a lot of effort and money to fix the damage to the paint. I know, that is why I have woodfill and a gallon of primer and paint!
I had to hire someone to fix it up before because people I was hiring for $25-$50 an hr. had the whole back of the house dinged up.
As for the drainage pipe for the gutters, I'm not sure what can be done about that.
Any ideas at all as to how to fix that?
It pisses me off!
No apologies, no nothing!! 
This place in particular has done it several times despite me going outside, pointing them out to them and telling them to work around the tubers and sprouts. They never get far beyond small plants and the manage to cut them down every time.
So frustrating!
What the hell is wrong with these people?
Why are they even in the landscaping business if this seems to be the best they can do?
Put it in writing and mail it to them with these pictures.
I can print them out!
Damn idiots!
It was a nightmare! That was for primer, paint and labor.
Then I hired this place to avoid more problems like this.
And this is what I get?
Its a shitty job and as for weed control, huh?
Weeds all over the place.
Usually I am out there after they leave doing the weeding!
It costs me $60-$120 a month for this B.S. !!
It is better than it was now but still not the same as it was.
Thanks for the tips as I had not thought that that metal would bend so easy.
It could break-off real easy too! Had to be careful.
Thanks again!
I may keep the stupid place as this guy coming over later could talk about nothing but money and credit cards. Not impressed!
As for the damage to the other side where they knocked the paint off down to the wood, that is still the same way.
You need woodfill and paint to fix it.
I'm in far too much pain to do that due to the MS.
I have MS and I simply can't do it!
Damned shit disease!
Just dealing with getting rid of the grubs landed me in bed for 16 hrs. out cold!
I get exhausted so easy and I have no help at all.
I'm on my own on this lonesome journey. 
that would rot or have termites around here. at any rate you might be able to put some flashing or other metal corner guard on that spot to mitigate future damage. the gutter spout is usually pretty thin metal, you can probably put some leather gloves on and bend it back with your fingers pretty easily. is the flower bed delineated with anything like rocks or a low border fence? might think of doing that and ask for the area to be hand trimed/weeded or not touched at all and do it yourself.
I see a lot of dandelions, if you want those gone (they don't hurt anything) they will have to be sprayed, nobody commercial is going pull weeds in this day and age.
my son does landscaping occasionally and is right now outside weed wacking the whole yard. he will get room, board, and probably $100 for the couple hours he spends on the project. those machines are pretty powerful and it isn't hard to hit a few things if you aren't super careful. it takes real skill to do a good job, which means you have to pay a lot to get that kind of work done. people that balk at paying for labor often don't realize how much work "labor" really is. either you have to be present and supervise, or you have to pay the money for someone else to self-supervise (be skilled) or you pay to have a third party supervise.
I'm on the coast in the pacific northwest of California.
That primer/paint job last year has held up good.
I still have a lot of the primer and paint left as I bought a gallon of each from Sherwin-Williams.
Maybe I can fix it up myself if pliers might be able to correct the drainage pipe issue.
Of course the issue is, "Why should I have to fix something that this landscape company did?".
I'm going to try to find another place to take over.
This is pure crap.
It will probably cost more, that is the problem.
After my husband died, I discovered I cannot collect his Social Security so my very low income status is now poverty level.
Dandy had great fun running through a field of them.
As proof, Dandy has the dandelion feet syndrome now! 
All he could talk about was being paid by a credit card.
Credit card.
Credit card.
WTF?
At least $100 a month or more too!
