"Storm uprooted large tree on hill by Lake. Prompt on appointment to quote job as well as date to perform work. Project came in as quoted; Did some additional weeding in section obscured by debris w/o change in price. Very thorough and proficient; industrious; customer focused operation. Work performed- harvested/stacked useable sections for firewood; cleaned up leaf debris and limbs and relocated to burn pit. Would definitely use again"
"I think they treated the wrong lawn. The note they sent me via text message referenced trees and shrubs in my yard, I have none. They also did not leave a yard marker showing they had been there. Otherwise, this would have been a 5 star review."
"They were very professional and had great communication. They went beyond what they quoted because they want their customers happy. I Will definitely use them again for any project I need. They did major foundation work and fix our floors inside."
"The two gentlemen came by to give me an estimate and were very personable and polite. However, I made other arrangements. I would recommend these guys though based on their understanding of what I wanted to have done and their ability to communicate with me what they planned to do for me."
"Installers courteous and efficient. Yard in a bit of a mess, but can't really be helped when installing sprinkler system. Answered our questions and concerns when we asked. No problems."
I’m a semi retired gentleman looking to supplement my social security by doing yard work. I can mow, weed eat and pick up fallen branches and other debris. I also can till your garden with a 6 foot wide tiller that leaves a ready to plant finish. I can grade your driveway. I can move dirt or rock with a front loader also. I’m available 7 days a week.
If you have a large area of brush and vegetation to clear, forestry mulching may be the best option. This method works well for relatively flat areas that don’t have many large rocks or mature trees to clear. Forestry mulching is a relatively quick process that improves soil health, reduces fire risk, and leaves behind usable mulch.
In the fall, you should aerate the soil, overseed the bare spots, kill weeds, mow the lawn low, and rake your leaves. By boosting your lawn’s health in the fall, your grass will be stronger throughout the winter and come back healthier in the spring. You should also trim your perennials so that they withstand the winter and are ready for new growth in the spring.
No, you shouldn’t vacuum artificial grass, particularly if you lay your synthetic grass with infill. Vacuuming could suction it up and loosen the connection between the grass and the ground.
The legality of blowing leaves into the street depends on your city or county laws. Many cities have codes that restrict blowing leaves into the street because it can obstruct the view of nearby drivers and make cars dirty, not to mention angering neighbors. Violations can result in a fine or other problems. You can check the codes on your municipal government website to learn more local guidelines, but avoid spraying leaves into streets for now.
Depending on the method you choose to remove grass, it may or may not matter whether the grass is wet or dry when you perform the task. A dryer lawn will be easier to negotiate with a sod cutter, especially if you're not planning to reuse the turf. However, using a shovel by hand might be a little easier if the ground is slightly damp but not so much that it sticks to the tool.
