Contractor Mark Goodridge cheated me out of my deposit. I cancelled within 12 hours. He wasn't supposed to start to work at the site for two more days. He went berserk and sent me close to 100 text messages in less than a day. I had to report him to the police. He gave me a phoney invoice with no address or company registration. I gave him one week to return my deposit and give me a valid invoice and he just ignored me. He calls his fake company Straight+Arrows+Landscape+Construction

We are seniors who have used Mark Goodridge's snow removal for two years. Last year he collected a $100 refundable deposit at the beginning of Oct. We have never received that refund. Initially he promised yard work instead of the money. He put us off on at least five different dates. We finally asked for a refund of the money. We have messaged him at least 12 times and he longer even bothers to reply. His snow removal services were frustrating with a 3 day wait after snow fall not being unusual. This also involved many messages and lots of frustration. Save yourself this frustrating experience. Find someone else.

Saddened to hear that I wasn't the only one to be taken advantage of by Mark Goodridge (Straight Arrow). Part of his quote included removing all of the rundle rock around my trees that he and his partner put in the year before and replacing it with cedar bark (his idea). I really liked the rundle rock, but trusted his opinion. I agreed on a price for the removal of the rundle rock and layering the bark. The rundle rock was expensive but I could use it elsewhere so I was okay with the project. When I arrived home I was shocked to see that they were putting the bark over the rock. When questioned, Mark told me that it was too hard to remove all of the rock so they removed some but not all as promised. That's what I paid for. I even paid extra to have other work that he had done for me guaranteed (in writing) and he didn't stand behind his guarantee and was very argumentative with me when I tried to call him on it. He didn't care, he had choice words for me and never fulfilled his commitment. He comes across as being very helpful and he liked to say "I'm doing this out of the kindness of my heart" ... no Mark you were not. There was nothing that I didn't pay for. I could go on, but I think that you get the gist. What I did learn is that he will only show up if owed money so please do not paid for the job in advance. I would never recommend him for any project!

I just had some work done with Mark Goodridge and he is nothing but amazing and thorough with all of his work. I had my fence done by him and landscaping work for my backyard. I would recommend him to anyone looking to get affordable, seamless work done. I am certain the complaint posted was due to a misunderstanding, it is unfortunate some people would post on a complaints board like this instead of figuring the situation out with one another like normal people.
