"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."
There are several ways to dispose of excess sod, including building a compost pile, taking it to a green waste disposal facility, donating the sod, or reusing it in another part of your yard. It’s a good idea to check with your local municipality to see how to get rid of yard waste, as some areas have local regulations on what can go in the green waste bin. For example, your recycling services may reject too much soil added to green waste.
It’s often not necessary to clean up rocks before you sell or donate them, although it’s a nice gesture. Cleaning the rocks you’re getting rid of probably isn’t worthwhile if you’re selling a large volume of small rocks, but if you’re selling or donating large boulders for landscape design, a quick clean might fetch more money or help out the donation center.
Yes, rotting leaves can be good for your soil. The decaying leaves release nutrients into the soil that can boost the health of your plants, and the organic matter also helps improve airflow and water drainage.
Yes, you can absolutely make your own mulch, and there are a few ways to go about it. First, you can lay down pine needles or mulched leaves if you’re mulching in the fall. In the spring and summer, you can use mulched grass clippings. Alternatively, you can lay down a few layers of newspaper in your garden and gently wet the paper to keep it in place.
Removing leaves prevents mold growth and ensures grass gets sunlight and air circulation.
