"Called on a Thursday afternoon, I needed someone for lawn care the next day. I was given a great price quote, and on short notice had the work done the following morning. Ryan was a really nice guy, professional and did a wonderful job on the yard!"
"Catlins has done plenty of work for me. Hauling, new landscaping, gravel delivery, carpentry including building a deck, installing sliding glass doors, and much more. Always quality, professional work at reasonable pricing!"
"Hired to help my 100 year old Mom tame her flowerbeds and the overgrowth encroaching on her lawn. They did a fantastic job! The yard hasn't looked that good in over a decade."
"Livingstone was easy to work with and very knowledgeable about the projects I needed done. He was flexible in balancing the amount of work to be done within my budget. He planned the project around my family's busy schedule. He and his team repaired and painted wooden siding and trim, sealed gutters, and painted the deck. All the work was done within a day. The house looks fantastic. I wish I had called him sooner."

Pulling weeds once per month is typically often enough to keep most weeds at bay. But in general, it's best to pull weeds as soon as you spot them to prevent deep root growth and slow their spread. To make it easier, plan your weed pulling after rain or after the sprinklers run so the soil will be nice and wet and the weeds will be easier to pull. If you notice moss accompanying weeds, make a plan to remove the moss immediately to prevent damage.
Land-clearing projects often take professionals one to two days to complete, but your timeframe can get much longer—sometimes up to a week or more—if you need your pros to clear a large section of land, grind down multiple large trees below the ground, or clear especially dense or heavy materials, like landscaping boulders and brush. A land-clearing expert will usually give you an accurate timeline along with your quote to help you better plan your project.
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.
You cannot put anything you want into a rented dumpster, as there are significant restrictions on certain items.
Generally allowed items include:
Household Junk: Furniture, old linens, carpets, toys, small appliances, and excess trash.
Construction & Yard Debris: Wood, yard debris, roofing materials, old finishes, and other construction waste.
Commonly prohibited items include:
Hazardous Materials: Toxic waste, medical waste, dangerous chemicals, items with lead paint, and asbestos.
Flammables: Gasoline, oil, and fuel.
Specific Banned Items: Paint cans, electronics, batteries, tires, refrigerators, and hot water tanks.
Because rules can vary, you should always check with your specific dumpster rental company for their guidelines if you are unsure about an item.
Several tools exist that can help remove unwanted grass. The one you choose depends greatly on how much you need to remove and how hard you'd like to work. A sod or turf cutter is the fastest method while using a shovel is labor-intensive and much slower. You may also need a garden rake, tiller, and wheelbarrow.
