"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."

No, definitely not. Pulling weeds by hand is the single most effective way to remove them because you're eliminating the entire plant—roots and all—so it won’t have a chance to grow or spread. Setting time aside a few times per week to pull weeds can keep them at bay. If the number of weeds gets overwhelming, then you can resort to other methods.
Small amounts of geese are actually good for the environment. They help spread seeds and lead to more plant growth, but they’re often an invasive species, particularly Canadian geese. This means a small gaggle can quickly grow into a level that litters your lawn with bald patches and excrement.
If possible, you should prioritize pulling weeds up by hand. However, be sure not to use your bare hands, as many weeds are sharp or otherwise irritating when they come in contact with skin. Always don thick, protective gardening gloves to protect your hands when you pull up weeds.
Burning yard waste can be an efficient method for large amounts. However, burning has health and environmental risks. Smoke can aggravate respiratory conditions, expose you to carbon monoxide, and cause irritation. Fire produces greenhouse gases and may start wildfires. Minimize risks by burning clean, dry, natural materials. Stay upwind and monitor the fire closely.
