Comcast and the City claim they aren't hearing about damage from

Gammyof2 :
Did they enter your yard without notifying you first?

BobRehak : the guy that came to the door said they were going to. I denied them access to my yard. That is when then threat, or what I take as a threat, happened.

Gammyof2 :
Take pictures NOW, before they rip up your yard. Also get pictures of them, their trucks and their license plates. As a practical matter, they are the ones that will bear the brunt of any liability.

FloydRTurbo: FloydRTurbo: They had to do mine 2X. And yes sand is cheaper than dirt/topsoil. However, the sod did take.

BobRehak :
Thank you so much for this information.

Also, make sure you get "before" pictures of your driveway. Those hydrovac trucks weigh 22,000 pounds. Most driveways aren't built to handle that kind of weight. Most cars only weigh 2500 to 4200 pounds. So they exert roughly 5-10 more times pressure on your driveway. My neighbor had her drive torn up and they refused to pay for it based on a pre-existing crack that showed up in a Google Street View photo from Jan 2022.

Amazed at the difference between Tachus and Comcast construction practices. Tachus seemed very professional. Comcast, the exact opposite.

SmokeableForest : I've heard of more lines being accidentally cut with this installation. In my former house, they cut the Internet wire for a neighbor as we had a main box in our backyard. They also showed up unannounced and help themselves to my backyard, at which point, I scolded them because I have dogs. Then they left a huge hole for more than a week("covered" by a flimsy, orange netting). Concast's response was that they had sent out a flyer to everyone in the neighborhood, letting them know that they'll be working in the area. But no individualized letters. Sigh. - what a mess.!

Gammyof2 : WOW!!

BobRehak : Great idea to take pictures of the vehicles and the plates in addition to the yard.

Staples : My neighbor and I were just talking yesterday about the difference. TOTALLY night and day!

cbear Staples :
I really feel sorry for the buyers of or KW house in SC. All that hard work we did on that yard plus I bet they hit/break the pool pump lines- well outside the easement but I from the stories I've heard they'll hit them anyway

They put a note on my door last week that said they would be working near our property on 10/31. I never saw them working in or near our yard. Does this mean they are finished and didn't need to access our back yard, or does it mean they can just show up at any time, and I have to keep my dog inside for weeks? We are on a corner lot and have a drainage canal in back of our property, so I am hoping they won't have to dig in our back yard. Tachus did not enter our yard when they installed their fiber.

XFinity has been working in my hood this week... that's totally unrelated to this Comcast stuff right?

ChesterAtkins : They are related.
