Lawn care companies are required to advertise "all inclusive" rates. An advertised price must include all amounts you need to pay to obtain the services, except taxes. This total price cannot be raised unless products or services are added upon your request.

This rule applies everywhere, in all types of advertising: newspapers or flyers, on billboards, on television, on the radio, on the Internet, and so forth.

If there is a problem

If the price requested is higher than the one advertised, you are entitled to demand paying the advertised price.

If you discover a merchant does not abide by the pricing regulations, you should file a complaint with the Office de la protection du consommateur. The Contact us page provides the ways to reach us.
