They repainted my bottom kitchen cabinets which were chipped. They matched the paint to the top cabinets and it looks great. I did not shop around for other quotes but the price seemed reasonable. The kitchen was spotless after they were done Would use them again if needed

They responded very quickly, and I didnt have to wait long to get the work done. I was having them mainly clear brush and move trees that were already cut down. They did a fine job, but didnt clear quite as far as I had asked them to.

Wasn't told upfront thaty all of previous stain would still be there so painting over it doesn't look that great. Paint already chipping in spots. Deck has also starred oozing sap which it had not done previously so now some areas the paint is bubbling.

We live in a house from the 1960's that has problematic drywall all over. We had had it painted before by someone else, but they did such a bad job--big drips and obvious brush strokes where they couldn't use a roller. I was hesitant to hire someone. However, we are having guests for the...

Brush Chipping questions, answered by experts

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.

The fastest way to rid your yard of pesky stickers or burs is to go mechanical on them with a lawn mower or garden rake. Use a lawnmower with a bagger attachment to avoid spreading the seeds around and causing a bigger issue. If you choose to rake the stickers off the plants, be sure to dispose of them properly. Avoid putting them in with the composting and check local guidelines for disposing of lawn waste.

Yes, many services offer environmentally friendly disposal options.

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.

Some states have bans on disposing of yard waste in plastic bags in landfills. Yard waste takes up space in landfills and releases methane gas when disposed of improperly. It's best to repurpose it naturally to benefit your garden and the environment.
