      June 14,2022 the day after a storm, Wright tree service asked for permission to enter my backyard to remove a dead tree off the power line in my neighbors yard. I told them they could drop the tree off the lines to get power back on. It had been off for two days. I had to leave and when I returned there was a large boom truck in my backyard. They entered my yard and pushed my gate to the side and rutted my yard from front to back so it is unsafe to walk or mow. The ****** from the tree was left in my yard and the gate was unlatched. Luckily my dog did not get out and get hurt. I contacted them to have the ruts filled in and was told it was an act of nature and they nor *********** was responsible for the repairs to my yard. It was not an act of nature it was the negligence of the tree service boom truck that did the damage. I had just had two 65 foot trees removed from my yard by a professional tree service and they took the very large trees down and haulled away the trees without driving a big boom truck in my yard. That is what I gave permission for not all the damage that was done to my impeccable yard. I would like the ruts filled in, I can live with the dead grass from the engine fluid that drained from the truck but I cannot fix the ruts. My gate has already been pushed back so I can lock it and my good neighbors removed the large pile of ****** from the tree. I live alone and am 73 years old and need to have the ruts filled in. Please help me.Thank you ***********************

      Better Business Bureau:

      They did come and fill in the deep ruts with mulch.   Hopefully the grass will come through the mulch and fill them in fully.  I have reviewed the response made by the business in reference to complaint ID ********, and find that this resolution is satisfactory to me.

      Sincerely,

      ***********************
