"Very satisfied. The team showed up as promised and they were very professional and made sure everything was working properly. They checked all my sprinklers and replaced heads were needed. Eduardo is very professional and reliable. I would recommend."
"Jeff the owner from Family Shield came to my home and assessed my lawn and immediately informed me of what he thought was going on with my lawn. Which lined up with my assessment. Everyone in the office has been very polite and has treated me with kindness and respect! I will post in a couple of months and let you know how my lawn is progressing! My first treatment begins this week! This is a family owned company and they have been remarkable!"
"Eduardo is very pleasant and explained everything in detail to me. He told me exactly what he was going to do and how long it would take to do it. I was very pleased with his work and even though they had to dig up my yard it was put back together almost seamlessly. Eduardo and his employee are very respectful, very hard working people."
"Zule is by far the best person I have ever had clean for me in the Keys. Her work is amazing and her communication with me whether it’s a problem or just checking schedules is great."
"I needed some large limbs removed from over my metal roof. It was in a difficult area and they were able to cut them down and clean up any debris. I was on a time line and the worked with me and finished ahead of time."
"⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ M&R Paint & Reno did an amazing job. From the first conversation through completion of the project, they were punctual, respectful, and easy to work with. The crew took the time to do the job right instead of rushing, and the finished work came out beautiful. I especially appreciated how responsive they were whenever I had a question. It’s hard to find contractors you can count on, and I would definitely use M&R Paint & Reno again. Highly recommended for anyone in the Florida Keys."

While a river may seem safer than the street, blowing leaves into the water can cause a lot of problems. Leaves can alter the local ecosystem, encourage bad algae growth and block narrow waterways. In large numbers, leaf debris can lead to fish death events in nearby bays or lakes and require expensive dredging to address. That’s why many cities also ban blowing leaves into water.
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.
Long-handled telescopic brushes are the best way to clean the outside of a house without a pressure washer. There are even special attachments for cleaning the outside of windows. Use a gentle cleaning solution for both the roof and siding to avoid harming the finishes. Be sure to rinse the area thoroughly with a garden hose after scrubbing.
To eliminate waste without polluting, consider whether it can be recycled, reused, or donated. However, hazardous waste, such as chemicals or electronics, requires special handling and disposal to prevent it from polluting landfills. Organic waste can be composted or converted into fuel at a biogas generation facility.
You have a few options to get rid of raked leaves, including bagging them and leaving them out for yard waste pickup. Even if you hire a professional for leaf removal, they can often bag the leaves and leave them for you to dispose of this way. You can also recycle and even donate yard waste. If you have a compost bin, your leaves will be ready to help your plants grow, reducing spring cleanup landscaping costs. Some companies will even accept donations of raked leaves to make compost, but you’ll need to transport them yourself.
