Oscar cleared brush and high grass on about an acre along the back of my property. The property is irregular shaped, uneven terrain with multiple trees. He brought in the appropriate equipment, showed up when promised and did a great job. His prices are fair and I would definitely use him again.

To remove old grass effectively, you typically need to dig to one to two inches. This depth typically allows you to reach the root system of the grass, ensuring thorough removal. However, if the grass is a particularly dense or deep-rooted variety (such as Bermuda grass), or if you're planning to replace it with a different landscaping feature, you may need to dig deeper to loosen the soil and remove any underlying roots.
