"quoted me $500 to prune 8 cypress trees a pomegranate tree and a mock orange. cancelled first appt due to equipment failure. texted him twice to confirm new appt. no answer. had to call. He sincerely apologized. they did the work, did fine with the trees, then I asked them to blow the leaves out of the front yard, paid them an extra $40. Not such a good job for $40. asked for an estimate for the back yard - waaayyy too much. i don't understand why people think they can charge $600 to prune 2 vines and blow out the yard. Business as usual is not the way to do business anymore. Sure, maybe some people have $600 lying around, but most of us don't. Carlos was very respectful, however, which does go a ways. I would hire him again to prune trees only."

"Javier and his brother helped us fully replace sprinkler valves, our sprinkler controller and a bunch of leaks in hoses around the yard. I had a great experience from first contact to final inspection. Javier was very thorough, worked quickly and went above and beyond the scope of work to make sure everything works well. I'll definitely will be working with him on future projects!"

"Joe is an amazing person, very nice and professional. He was on time and provided excellent service for multiple projects that needed to be done. He repaired my front gate, hung a picture going up my staircase, repaired the lock on my window, and put up window shades on my arched windows. In addition, he took the time to look at my bathroom and offered helpful suggestions for changing the lighting fixtures. I could not have asked for a better professional! I am very satisfied with the work Joe provided, and I will be calling him again for all future projects! I highly recommend Metroman Handyman Services!"

Lawns questions, answered by experts

Yes, it's perfectly safe and environmentally sound to mulch leaves with a lawn mower, provided that the layer of leaves isn't too thick and the leaves are dry and crispy. Too many wet leaves get sticky and will clog the mower. Thick layers of leaves can suffocate the lawn after the leaves have been mulched, so the layer should be no more than six inches thick.

No, you cannot throw branches from your neighbor’s tree back into their yard, nor can you discard leaves or other plant matter that originated from their yard back over there if it happens to land in your yard. You are responsible for cleaning up plant matter that made its way into your yard.

To reduce landscaping costs, you can implement several strategies at every stage. Consider doing the work yourself (DIY) to save on professional labor fees. You can also repurpose existing features and materials from other home projects. When purchasing new items, choose more inexpensive materials and opt for softscaping over hardscaping where possible. Another effective method is to buy young plants or plant from seed, which is more cost-effective than purchasing mature plants.

The time it takes for leaves to decompose can range from six months to three years. Key factors influencing the decomposition rate include water, sunlight, and heat, so local weather conditions play a significant role. Decomposition will take longer for thick, matted layers of leaves. To speed up the process, you can mulch the leaves, as smaller pieces break down faster. Spreading large piles into thinner layers to increase exposure to sunlight and water also helps accelerate decomposition.

While a rented dumpster can handle a wide variety of materials, there are significant restrictions on what is allowed. Generally, you can dispose of most non-hazardous household junk, yard waste, and construction debris.

Accepted items typically include:

  • Furniture, carpets, old linens, and toys

  • Wood and yard debris

  • Small appliances and excess trash

  • Renovation waste like old finishes, building debris, and roofing materials (unless they contain lead paint or asbestos)

However, you cannot put toxic, flammable, or hazardous materials in a dumpster. Prohibited items almost always include:

  • Paint, gasoline, oil, and other fuels

  • Household cleaners and other chemicals

  • Electronics, batteries, and tires

  • Refrigerators, hot water tanks, and medical waste

Since regulations can vary by location and company, it is essential to check with your dumpster rental provider for their specific list of accepted and prohibited items before you begin.
