Removed barbed wire fence and installed 4 rail wood fence. Used quality materials, efficient and all looks good and built to last. Outstanding job. The skid steer did tear up the lawn some but ground was a little soft from rain. They removed all brush and extraneous barb wire. Very pleased...

Chip Diamond (owner) is a polite, professional and friendly man. My "C" rating reflects that 50% of the inspection was fine. The 50% part of the inspection that was subpar, in my opinion, was the roof inspection. He chose not to get on a ladder and visually inspect the roof from the ladder (I...

The walls look nice but the painter left paint spatters on the floor, and a brush mark of the wrong color on a wall. Also paint splatters on the doorframes. I think the company is good but this painter is not. <br />

We had to coordinate the removal of three stumps from out of town - obviously never ideal to not be there when the work is performed. Beene responded quickly to my email request and showed up very shortly thereafter to perform the work. The price originally quoted ended up being a bit lower...

Brush Chipping questions, answered by experts

It’s possible to go too far trimming your bushes or hedges. If you overdo it, you may kill the plant. Stick to trimming about a third of the branches on your bush each season to prevent over-cutting. If your hedge is overgrown and needs a heavy trim, avoid cutting off the main branches that make up the top of the bush.

Most junk removal services don’t take hazardous materials, including paint, gasoline, bleach, and other chemicals. When gathering quotes, ask the company about its specific restrictions.

Yes, many services offer environmentally friendly disposal options.

To remove old grass effectively, you typically need to dig to one to two inches. This depth typically allows you to reach the root system of the grass, ensuring thorough removal. However, if the grass is a particularly dense or deep-rooted variety (such as Bermuda grass), or if you're planning to replace it with a different landscaping feature, you may need to dig deeper to loosen the soil and remove any underlying roots.

If you want to take the decomposition process into your hands to speed it up, water and sunlight are key. Of course, you can’t control sunlight yourself, but you can rake leaves into piles in sunny spots in your yard. In terms of using water, you can also moisten the decomposing leaves with water, whether by pouring some from a watering can from time to time or using a hose to moisten them.
