Small jobs welcome

J&M was created as a business that will eventually be handed down to my sons. The tasks the business handles are those that require general building and maintenance skills. Any skills acquired for these jobs were ones that I learned from my dad or grandfather, both of which were licensed builders. I stand behind all work the business does with a 100% money back guarantee.

I've worked with Travis and Megan for several years.  Most of the time it's fine.  But when there's a problem, their first response is to blame me--with anger.  At one point in lawn care, I asked that the lawn chairs NOT be turned upside down, covered with grass cuttings, left in front of the stairs to enter the house.  Pretty reasonable request.  I was told that I was asking too much--they couldn't make money when I asked for more.  I said i was happy to PAY EXTRA to have the place look nice when I returned.  They never responded.

Today I sent a note that the driveway was completely torn up after plowing.  I know it was a difficult and wet snow (and I wrote that), but there were 8 inch ruts dug into the drive, and there were piles of dirt (rather than snow) all alongside the driveway (which was plowed so narrow I couldn?t actually drive it).  I sent photos, and said I wasn?t sure what had happened, but that I?d like them to come and take a look because it seemed that parts had deep snow left and parts had dug up the driveway where there wasn?t much snow.  The response was that they weren?t going to go around and around about this.  They?d gotten stuck (no one told me!) and there was a problem with the driveway.  They wanted to part ways.

It?s pretty hard to work with someone who can?t negotiate, can?t take a look at a job that?s not done well or that a customer isn?t satisfied with.  Rather than working WITH a customer, Travis and Megan seem determined to be right.  Most of the time they are.  But when they?re not, there?s no room for customer care or customer satisfaction.  That?s a problem.

Weed Services questions, answered by experts

A spot herbicide for weed control is effective at killing crabgrass and not grass, but it depends on the type of herbicide. Always check the label to ensure that your herbicide is safe for grass but tough on crabgrass. Overall, spot treatment is ideal because it puts fewer herbicides into the soil, which can damage the soil. If you’re wanting a natural remedy to crabgrass that also won’t harm surrounding grass, you can also hand-remove crabgrass or even pour boiling water or 5% vinegar over crabgrass as a spot treatment.

It’s best to pull weeds when the soil is wet, as it’s much easier. Wet soil is much softer than dry soil, making it easier to pull the entire weed up by the root. Also, since the soil is wet, the roots will let go of the soil and slide up with less resistance. Be careful when working on your wet garden, though, as wet soil is easier to compact, which can harm your plants.

Clover lawns stand up better against dog and cat urine than traditional turfgrass. If your pets love to hang out on the lawn on a sunny day—or if you find yourself with a lot of visiting neighborhood dogs—you could save yourself from yellow and brown patches by making the switch to a clover lawn.

Whether a one-time spray treatment to control mosquitoes is enough depends on multiple factors. Often, you’ll notice a big difference after one application. However, mosquitoes are likely to return if you don't reduce attractive standing water habitats. This usually takes four to eight weeks if it’s still prime mosquito season.

Mowing a lawn will, unfortunately, not get rid of clover, and it may even encourage it to flourish. Let your lawn grow to a healthy height of over 3 inches and then set your mower blades no lower than this level. Higher grass will cut out the light that clover loves and discourage it from spreading.
