"They were very easy to talk to and addressed all my concerns. We took in other quotes from companies and everyone came in around the same price, but would not either clean up the whole yard of debris, or we had to pay a second party to come in and fill the foundation with sand. Learned Brothers Services, did it all. They torn down the house, removed all the debris, raked the glass and small bits out the yard, and filled in the foundation with sand. I need to mention also, that on my property there were rock walls near the house that needed to be saved. They were able to work around them, and all though some of the walls were brittle, they were able to save them. My house was 3 stories high with in attached barn. All was burned, but a lot was still there. They were able to do all that I listed above in 3 day. It was a joy to work for them, I would recommend them to anyone."

Weed Services questions, answered by experts

You should add 1 to 4 inches of mulch, depending on your garden type and needs. Keep in mind that no amount of mulch can completely prevent weeds, but a heavier coverage (closer to 4 inches) can suppress weeds enough that you are only seeing them sprout every few weeks. Finer mulch prevents weeds more effectively than large mulch, so if you’re using mulched leaves or shredded bark, 1 to 2 inches will likely suffice, while 3 to 4 inches is best for larger mulch, like bark chips or straw.

The best time to fight crabgrass with pre-emergent herbicide is when forsythias tend to bloom. In the mid-Atlantic region, this is usually between April and May. Even if you're late to apply the herbicide, it’s effective as long as the crabgrass plant has fewer than five leaves.

Choosing fertilizers: slow-release for steady nutrients, organic for eco-friendliness, or specific blends for soil deficiencies or grass types.

Each type of weed comes with its own control methods, but stopping the seed spread is the first step. Grazing, mowing, and hand pulling can slow the invasion. In some cases, selective herbicide is necessary to stop a persistent weed from overtaking an area.

Jet washing can wash away weeds without bending or kneeling to pull them. However, the results will likely be fleeting because the weeds will return unless you use a stronger method that takes them out at the root. Use a jet washer for short-term weed removal, but use a stronger method if you want to get rid of weeds for good.
