"David did an excellent job assembling and filling 2 large flower beds for me. He does excellent work. I'm so impressed. Also, the project was completed in a timely manner. Great communication to make sure they were placed exactly where and how I wanted them. I highly recommend him. I plan to hire him again to work on my house."

"We hired Bobby for a variety of projects around our home, including lighting installation, camera setup, gym equipment installation, and several other home improvement tasks. He was extremely respectful, thoughtful, and professional throughout the entire process. What stood out most was how detail-oriented he was — he regularly asked for my opinion on placement, setup, and finishing touches that I honestly would not have thought about myself. He worked quickly while still being very conscientious of our time and our home. I would absolutely recommend him to anyone looking for reliable, high-quality work. In fact, I already have recommended him to several friends and family members, and they’ve all had great experiences as well."

Lawns questions, answered by experts

Clearing 1 acre of land takes anywhere from two to 12 hours for a professional team, depending on what they’re removing. The amount of time needed to complete the project depends on the size of your acreage, the land’s condition, the size of the crew completing the work, and what type of equipment they’re using. Smaller projects normally take a few hours, while larger projects may require one or two full workdays.

To remove old grass effectively, you typically need to dig to one to two inches. This depth typically allows you to reach the root system of the grass, ensuring thorough removal. However, if the grass is a particularly dense or deep-rooted variety (such as Bermuda grass), or if you're planning to replace it with a different landscaping feature, you may need to dig deeper to loosen the soil and remove any underlying roots.

A pre-emergent herbicide is the most effective way to avoid stickers growing in your yard. However, if some manage to make it through, a post-emergent herbicide is the most effective way to kill them. However, environmental concerns exist when using chemicals on a lawn. Try vinegar or baking soda applications to kill sticker plants for a more natural yet still effective method.

Trees that provide a habitat to bats and an abundance of bugs—their main food source—will attract bats to your yard. Because the North American landscape has changed so much in recent years, bats have a harder time finding trees with cavities to shelter in. If your yard has a dead or dying tree with a lot of sun exposure, bats will likely be drawn to it because trees with those features are less common.

Your neighbor is not in a good position to know if your trees are truly dead or pose any kind of danger. That’s why hiring an arborist or tree service expert can be such an important part of the process. If the trees are still alive and don’t pose any threat, you’re in the clear (but you may want to document and photograph everything in case events turn sour down the road).

But if a tree is visibly dead and near the property line, you should remove it to be safe. If a dead tree falls on a neighbor’s property, they may have grounds to sue for negligence. If any branches on trees have died, it’s a good idea to cut them back for similar reasons.
