Is forestry mulching worth it?

• <div><p>If you have a large area of brush and vegetation to clear, forestry mulching may be the best option. This method works well for relatively flat areas that don’t have many large rocks or mature trees to clear. Forestry mulching is a relatively quick process that improves soil health, reduces fire risk, and leaves behind usable mulch.</p></div>

Can I do my own leaf removal?

• <div><p>Yes, you can conduct your own leaf removal, but consider that keeping up with leaf removal is time-consuming and requires regular yard work throughout the fall. The process can take a few hours a week. Professionals have lawn equipment that can speed up the process and save you time. Additionally, consider how you’ll dispose of the leaves. If your sanitation company won’t pick them up—especially if you have many bags from a once-annual cleanup— you’ll have to drive the bags to the dump. It’s usually easier to leave the work and disposal to a professional leaf removal service.</p></div>

I hired Precise Touch to paint my cedar picket fence. They did a great job! Fernando visited me first to provide some consultation. He gave advice for stains and paint, solid versus transparent, and spray versus roller/brush. He gave me a paint catalog to choose my color preference. On the day...

They dripped stucco on the new cement work I had done by another Home Advisor contractor. They came over to brush it off but now it is all smeared. Makes the job look messy. The wall they did looks Great!

Oswald quickly responded to my service request, arrived promptly at the agreed-upon time, and promptly repaired the irrigation leak. The area is located on a steep hillside with very dense brush, which is the reason for the higher cost.

Art started the work when he said he would and finished on time as well. He always kept the work area clean. Overall I am satisfied, but there were a few minor issues. There is a gap in between one set of tiles and another, and one of the tile bullnoses got chipped during or shortly after...

Augustin and two others showed up on time and did a very good job. I would have preferred the tree trunks and larger branches to have been chipped up and left on the property. I suppose this would have required a larger chipper.

Branches, leaves, grass clippings, and landscaping debris are typically collected.

Foxtail grass is not native to the United States, so it is considered an invasive plant. Giant foxtail originated in eastern Asia, Green foxtail is native to Europe, and Yellow foxtail is native to Eurasia. This grass variety is one of many common invasive plant species that you should keep out of your yard and garden beds as much as possible.
