Who is responsible for cleaning up debris from someone else’s tree that falls on my property?

• <div><p>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.</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 wish I'd done this sooner! Jay and Rick arrived on time, explained their process thoroughly, were considerate about my concerns and careful of the plantings. Although there are places where some paint chipped off, I was surprised at how dirty the house was only 2 years after having been...

They did a wonderful job. Professional and careful. Berj made recommendations about what needed to get done and what kind of coating would suit my home and lifestyle. He even came back the next week to repair one board that was chipped (not by him).

I have had painting done in the past but Cassio and his crew do clean cuts and no paint brush marks. All areas look like a new home. They far exceeded my expectations and would recommend highly. I am having more work done in the fall and I'm hiring them again. I will never use another painting...

The price was the low bid, but this was compared to a couple of higher-end painters, so I can't say how it compares with the full universe of painters. John Guarino, the owner was very responsive and responsible during all stages of the job, and the crew that did the job were helpful and...

Work went perfectly. Mike and team showed up on time and did a great job. I had them seal all the cracks, and sealcoat using brush instead of spray. I had a lot of spider cracks and hand brush is best way to deal with those. Mike's prices are very reasonable and he is a great person to do...

Ever since I bought my condo many years ago I'd been wanting to have my shower grout and caulking fixed. I finally took care of it with Sir Grout and wish I hadn't waited so long because there was mold behind a section of tiles and the tiles had to be removed and the section bleached. Chris W....

Brush Chipping questions, answered by experts

Unless it’s rubber or you need to prune suckers and remove weeds, you shouldn’t need to get rid of the old mulch around your tree. Simply push old mulch a few inches away from the trunk of your tree and then top it off with enough fresh mulch to reach 3 to 4 inches in height.

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.
