I expected them to brush on the sealant, but instead it was sprayed on giving an inferior result. Their quotation was for brushing and spraying, so I had to accept their job. Workers were very efficient and had the job done in one hour.

Great job! This is the 2nd time I have asked Chip from Service One clean the wall to wall carpeting in my apartment, and he did a great job on some very old carpeting. He raised the pile and did a deep clean so that the carpet looks fresh and new. Chip also cleaned my sofa, arm chair, 2 benches,...

<p>A-1 did an outstanding job. They power-washed our deck very thoroughly, allowed it to dry completely before staining. This was difficult since we had many rain delays, but they did not rush until they were certain the deck was completely dry. Before staining, they sanded down the old stain so...

Chip from ServiceOne was excellent. He arrived on time, assessed the carpet and cost and got right to work. <br /> I live in an apartment with old, beige wall-to-wall carpeting that had not been maintained. The edged were black from filtration, and I'm pretty sure the padding is turning to...

Brush Chipping questions, answered by experts

Many privet varieties are considered invasive, particularly in North America. They can grow quickly, spread into the wild, and push out native species if left uncontrolled. It’s a particular problem for warmer southern states, and some regions even have warnings or regulations against planting certain types of privet. You can reduce (but not eliminate) the chances of privet spreading by cutting its flowers in summer before they develop.

If debris from a tree located in a government-owned space (such as a sidewalk, public school, or government property) falls in your yard, it is the city’s or state government’s responsibility to have the debris cleaned up. On the other hand, most states only hold a neighbor liable for cleaning up their tree’s debris if they were negligent in caring for the tree.

If your dog always does their business in the yard, daily poop pick-up makes sense. The nitrogen in the poop can start making its way into the grass and surrounding soil quickly, a rain shower can send the waste into waterways, and less poop lying around means less chance of stepping on it accidentally.

Dormant seasons like fall and winter are the best times to dig up plants, including holly bushes. Plants aren’t growing during these seasons, so the removal process goes a lot quicker. Consider hiring a landscaping team to handle holly bush removal during the cold-weather months for off-season pricing deals, too.

Leaf removal isn’t always necessary, and what you should do with leaves in your yard depends on the number of trees you have. Leaving a small amount of leaves to decompose on your property can add nutrients to the soil and help grass, plants, and trees thrive. However, large accumulations of leaves can promote mold and fungal growth, so you should do at least two fall cleanups if you have many trees on your property.
