How can I get rid of a bush with utility lines underneath it?

Horrible is the best word to describe these guys. I had them install quartz countertop for our master bathroom costing us over $2,000. The backsplash they installed had a sizable chip (1/4" x 5/8"). The installer tried to cover it up by putting some caulking. When I called the office about...

All went well. Per the Angie's List deal, we bought the paint. Foreman kept in good contact with me and came over to make sure we were all set and to discuss the work. The team did some really good work fixing some holes, loose taping, and chips out of the drywall.

Brush Chipping questions, answered by experts

If you want to remove a bush that’s located on top of utility lines, you’ll need to call your local utility company to determine the best course of action. If you can’t dig out your stump its roots, cutting a bush off at ground level might be the best you can do. Adding a planter over top of the cut branch or planting something else around the stump can cover the area while the stump decomposes.

The best way to clean an overgrown yard is to create a multi-stage game plan, from clearing out the debris to cleaning up the edges around hardscaping and landscape curbing. Get rid of yard debris like worn furniture and broken tools first, then start trimming and raking what’s left. Mow the grass, trim the hedges, and rake leaves away. Once that’s complete, move on to more detailed work, like pulling weeds and replanting gardens.

Unless you plan to use a dump trailer for business purposes, it will be hard to justify the cost of buying one. Even a small, used 6-by-10-foot model could set you back as much as $5,000, and larger, high-quality models can cost up to $15,000 to buy brand-new.

Services include regular garbage pickup, recycling, and bulk waste disposal options.

Trees that provide a habitat to bats and an abundance of bugs—their main food source—will attract bats to your yard. Because the North American landscape has changed so much in recent years, bats have a harder time finding trees with cavities to shelter in. If your yard has a dead or dying tree with a lot of sun exposure, bats will likely be drawn to it because trees with those features are less common.
