"My rock border was full of dirt and weeds. The guys took out the stones, cleaned them off on the driveway, put down new weed guard, then replaced the stones and added more to fill in. It looks like new! They also sawed down a couple of stumps and worked around my existing plants. Pleased with how it turned out!"
Hello, my name is Jack and I have had a property preservation company in the Fox Valley area and beyond. Please contact me with any help that you may need. Thank you.
35 year old father, that is mowing yards with my 8 year old and 9 year old to help them earn some of their own money and they love to help me mow our big yard at the farmhouse. Our end goal for each yard is a high quality finish for a very low cost.
"I had a large amount of leaves and sticks to clean up. They were cleaned up quickly and thoroughly. I had high expectations and they were exceeded. Recommend highly !"
"Let me start by saying that this is the 2nd time this year that I have hired Al's Moving and Labor so although I am NOT a fan of moving in general and what that takes on, I am a fan of Al's Moving and Labor. Al may not tell you he worked for many, many years for a national moving company and he may not tell you that he is formerly military, but he and his crew are well trained and know what they are doing and are really precise with the detail you need on your moving day. I am a meeting planner, and it's all in the details and the level of service. Have you ever had your items shrink-wrapped or paper-wrapped? Amazing amount of care in their work. The morning of my move, I got another confirmation call from Al. When crew arrived, I knew one of them from my move six months ago. The truck was loaded in 40 minutes and when we arrived at my new location, the and crew unloaded into a storage unit on site and into my new apartment. If I changed my mind on where I wanted the furniture placed, they were only professional, patient and kind. If you are a single middle aged person like me whose friends all are over 50 and have bad backs, do call Al's Moving and Labor for great service and a job very well done. Buy local. Call Al.

Pulling weeds can spread weed seeds and disturb the soil, leading to seed germination. Pulling weeds can also trigger growth in weeds that reproduce through their root systems—disturbing the roots without fully removing them may cause more weeds to grow from the roots.
Mowing a lawn will, unfortunately, not get rid of clover, and it may even encourage it to flourish. Let your lawn grow to a healthy height of over 3 inches and then set your mower blades no lower than this level. Higher grass will cut out the light that clover loves and discourage it from spreading.
Dandelions, while hard to control and widespread across the country, are not typically categorized as noxious. Yellow starthistle, however, looks very similar to a dandelion and is highly damaging to local plants and invasive across the country.
They compete for nutrients and water, potentially stunting desired plants.
No, definitely not. Pulling weeds by hand is the single most effective way to remove them because you're eliminating the entire plant—roots and all—so it won’t have a chance to grow or spread. Setting time aside a few times per week to pull weeds can keep them at bay. If the number of weeds gets overwhelming, then you can resort to other methods.
