How can I get rid of a bush with utility lines underneath it?

• <div><p>If you want to remove a bush that’s located on top of utility lines, you’ll need to call your local utility company to determine the best course of action. If you can’t dig out your stump its roots, cutting a bush off at ground level might be the best you can do. Adding a planter over top of the cut branch or planting something else around the stump can cover the area while the stump decomposes.</p></div>

Can you mulch too many leaves?

• <div><p>It’s possible to over-mulch leaves. If the leaf mulch is thick enough that it’s blocking and smothering the grass, that’s a problem. Ideally, you should still be able to see the grass when you’re done mulching to ensure its ability to continue growing. The solution is to make another pass at the top layer of leaf mulch to collect some of the top layer.</p></div>

How do I dispose of excess wood?

• <div><p>Wood is a very versatile material, so you can either compost it, use it for firewood, turn it into wood chips, or save it for future projects. If you don’t want excess wood cluttering your garage or workspace, you can call local community centers or schools to see if they have a need for it.</p></div>

The crew was on time and completed the job in the promised time frame. There was hardly any dust from the floor sanding to remove the old paint. The floor looked real nice when viewed initially. Once the floor dried and I was able to inspect the floor up close I noticed some imperfections in the...

My garage looks great. The guys did an excellent job. Francesca gave me all the information I needed to make the right decision on which covering to get. I went with epoxy coating, using brown chips and couldn't be happier.

the only issue is they left a bit of a mess that we had to clean up: paint chips and debris. Not a huge deal but we had to get a wet/dry vac to get all the paint chips out of lawn, as we have free range chickens and didn't want them to get sick on the paint chips.
