I would give zero stars if I could. I hired Platinum Pro Painting to paint my front entrance door, and the clear coat was applied unevenly with very obvious brush marks. When I pointed it out, the owner Victor told me to wait until it dried and the marks would disappear. Trusting his word, I...

The wall painting itself is in good quality, though they painted the wrong wall, and had to repaint the correct one. When I asked them if they could do door/window frames, they said they’d done that before, so we trusted them to do our sliding door frames. By the time they finished the work and...

Grout did not come as clean as I'd hoped (perhaps because it was white and I had waited too long after installation). I found one chipped tile several days after the work was done, though I can't be sure it was the Atlas crew who did it.

The gentleman that performed the service was very careful to check all areas of concern. I was surprised that he used a brush on an extension pole to "knock down" spider webs and other debris. He then sprayed the entire area thoroughly. <br />

Brush Chipping questions, answered by experts

The legality of blowing leaves into the street depends on your city or county laws. Many cities have codes that restrict blowing leaves into the street because it can obstruct the view of nearby drivers and make cars dirty, not to mention angering neighbors. Violations can result in a fine or other problems. You can check the codes on your municipal government website to learn more local guidelines, but avoid spraying leaves into streets for now.

If you don’t remove a bush properly, it’ll come back each year. Removing the root system entirely is the only way to ensure the plant doesn’t have a chance to grow back. You can also use natural weed killers or you can choose to suppress the area with landscaping fabric. Additionally, consider planting alternative, non-invasive vegetation to deter the return of thorn bushes.

If debris from a tree located in a government-owned space (such as a sidewalk, public school, or government property) falls in your yard, it is the city’s or state government’s responsibility to have the debris cleaned up. On the other hand, most states only hold a neighbor liable for cleaning up their tree’s debris if they were negligent in caring for the tree.

Remove household junk, construction debris, yard waste, and old appliances.

This depends on how many leaves there are. Mowing over dry and crisp leaves with a bagging attachment saves most homeowners a lot of time. If you have a smaller lawn and few leaves to mulch, you can put the leaves into a stand-alone mulcher resembling a wood chipper and collect the mulch from a hopper. This prevents having to do multiple passes with a mower.
