"I got behind on my lawn cutting and he helped me get caught up. It was a little bit overgrown, but it was no problem. He helped me out and did weed eating as well. A little extra money and he took it to the property line, the extra yard waste that he cut with weed eater. Thank you Preston."
"Tandem Trades LLC made it easy to coordinate & schedule miscellaneous residential handyman jobs (shutter reattachment, entry door weather strip replacement, exterior trim painting). Service was prompt, efficient, professional, and high quality with the handyman explaining all work performed."
"He is very respectful of the customer and the home. He was a Marine, and we were glad to hire a Vet, our countries finest. A father of 4 having been married to his first and only wife 10 yrs. Trustworthy, hard worker, son of a contractor. Very honest and easy to talk to, desires to please his customers. Heâ s our handyman now after this weeks job. We are very happy, my husband and I."
"Scheduling was great, an appointment was made immediately and the contractor arrived on the day scheduled. After that problems started. The contractor mowed my lawn while raining and I had piles of wet grass left on my lawn. When the grass dried I had a big mess. The dead grass also killed areas of my lawn. I contacted customer service, forward photos and they rectified that problem by sending someone out to recut my lawn. I was willing to give them another chance. I scheduled an appointment two weeks in advance. The day I was due to have lawn mowed I received an email that it had been reschedule for the next day. The next day no one showed nor did I receive a call nor email at which point I terminated services. This is not a reliable business."
"Samuel is amazing.
I hired Samuel to replace a closet door in the apartment I just moved out of. I could not find the door I needed, and Samuel went out of his way to find the door, and pick it up. He arrived on time, was very professional, personable and kind. It was refreshing to work with Samuel because he treated me with respect, his fees are fair, and he didn’t try to price gauge the project because I’m a woman, like some contractors I considered hiring for projects I want completed in my new home.
I look forward to working with Samuel to complete the other projects I want/need completed. I will absolutely refer Samuel to my family and friends who want/need to hire a contractor."
"Adam did the work in my home today. There were three heating and air-conditioning units which were checked out and some which needed some repair. I highly recommend him. Reasonable cost excellent knowledge and willing to take the time to do an excellent job."
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.
Seal bags firmly for materials like soil or mulch, store unused parts in dry and cool spaces to prevent decay and use material visually formed covers for extended periods.
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.
While leaves won’t fully decompose over winter, they will still continue to decompose, just more slowly than usual.
A land-clearing project begins with assessing and preparing the property and pulling any necessary permits with your municipal building department. Clearing can begin after the project details are ironed out between you and your pro and a written contract is signed. Pros will bring out the necessary equipment and crew to first remove trees, stumps, brush, and vegetation. Your pro will then load up and haul away the project debris, and depending on the project, they may finish by grading the cleared land.
