Landscaper's weed wacking my newly planted Stewartia Pseudocamelia

I bought this tree earlier this spring and put a steel ring around it and pine bark mini-nuggets. My landscaper promptly blew all the nuggets away during mowing and so I did not replace them knowing it would just happen again. Naturally, weeds grew around the tree. Consequently, the landscapers felt compelled to weedwack around the trunk. They claim the damage in the photo is not their damage, but I cannot imagine an insect making this kind of damage to the trunk. What would you do? Shouldn't the landscaper buy me a new tree?
