These types of videos motivate me to get up and get busy! I am 68 and now that I am retired my yard has never looked better! But..it is hard work! This was amazing! 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻❤️
I am also 68 and get complimented all the time on how nice my yard looks. It looked as good even before I retired and I don't know how I did it, working full time plus a lot of overtime. Now that I'm retired, it is more tiring but still very satisfying. I keep it very low maintenance as far as plants and shrubs. They are all drought tolerant (no watering) and plants are ground cover, shrubs are dwarf (no trimming or dead heading).
I am also 68 and I hated yard work when I was 18, 28, 38, 48, 58, and still hate it and that is why I pay someone to do it. LOL Wish I did like it, but nope, not going to happen. Besides I have Hay Fever. Give me a dirty greasy car to work on and I am ok.
@@fredmaxwell9619 ... Why not do both? I'd rather work on my yard or "fix" cars - than waste time at a gym or just walking around the block ofr exercise. There was a time when kids (teen-agers) would cut yards, trim shrubs, wash cars or trucks etc. Now they'd rather whine about - I can't find a job?
You did an exceptional job. It’s great that you actually picked up all of the grass and weeds instead of just mulching it into really small pieces and leaving it there, which so many landscapers do… even on RU-vid. That makes it look SO much better. That makes you an AAAA++++ landscaper in my book. When the grass is just mulched, ESPECIALLY when it’s that bad, you can’t help but drag it in the house every time you step in the yard. If the grass is kept short it’s not to bad but the first cut makes it horrible in the house. Otherwise you can’t step on it for the first few cuts when it’s left there.
It is expensive to dump lawn waste though in many towns and cities. Plus you have to use “special bags” in a lot of places which means you have to buy them. That’s why many folks don’t pick it all up unless they have a place to take it. Just depends on the person and location.
@@coleengogerty3852 yup. That and mulching it into the lawn is better for the lawn in the long term. I have just figured out the bagger on my riding mower, and will just slip the baskets on at the very edge of my front lawn so I don't have to sweep/blow the clippings anymore. Only took me 2 years to figure out it wasn't working because it was clogged. Lol. I inherited the lawn AND the riding mower. 🤷🏼♀️
Great job. I am glad there is someone like you who will go out there and help people who can't do it themselves, for one reason or another. Thank you for helping people. We could all use a little help from someone now and then. God bless
I thought when you were doing the front and sides that it was going to be straight forward - but then you went to the backyard, OMG! A lot of work there. A Magnificent transformation! Good Job 💖
That was the most exhausting video I have ever watched …. Yet so relaxing and exciting at the same time. Can someone explain why our brains enjoy watching content like this. I am truly curious. RESPECT for a fantastic job to a fantastic man!
Talk about overgrown and out of control, this place would need at least 3 people and 3 - 4 days just to start bringing it in. KUDOS for your efforts and dedication to getting it done. Would be nice to see a follow-up in 3-6 months out of curiosity.
Me also, watching these videos wants me to go out and work in my yard. You did a nice job on that yard, I'm sure the new homeowners really appreciate your hard work
You are a smart worker. Plus you wear gloves and bag all that you mowed or whacked. It looks like an entirely different property. You found a front fender I was waiting for the rest of the car. You are a hard worker. Thank you. Be safe.
Great job! I worked a job really similar to this one, in a rough urban neighborhood, where I was hired just to clean up garden areas. But the lawn person did a really negligent bad job. I redid all of their work, AND the gardens. I think tenants in any neighborhood deserve as beautiful a yard as their suburbanite landlords.
It's hard to believe it's the same place was that a finger r a worm that flew on to ur camera I'd love to see the walls power washed they look nice can't wait for ur next one I had to watch this a second time I loved it so much
The lawn mower sounded like a mosquito on steroids, as well! I decided his microphone must have been set to all treble, no bass! But the visual transformation was perfection!
I would have to disagree with the "King of the Weed Whackers" comment. LOL AP with Clean the City has him one upped for sure. That is his favorite lawn tool. 🤣
I have a 3 month old puppy and as weird as it might sound, he loves this video so much. You did tremendous work and it looks incredible but to him, the weedwhacker noises is the best part lol
YOU ARE REALLY SMART TO PROVIDE THESE - GREAT MARKETING FOR YOURSELF. I HOPE YOU ALSO TAKE CARE OF YARDS FOR THOSE WHO ARE UNABLE TO PAY AS WELL WHICH I SUSPECT YOU ALREADY DO :)
Yikes! The high pitched squeaky noise from the quick video speed feels like I’m at the dentist getting my teeth cleaned! 😂 I love your videos! Wonderful work!
It was originally designed for weeding in paddy fields, hence the long shaft, like many things it's been repurposed, the bamboo crushers is another now sold as a wood chipper
@Fran R ... Actually, I was wondering why he did not removed those as well.... My husband always says, " when you do something good, you might as well give out your best! "
The guy with the weed whacker was awesome with it like an artist he cut that lawn down sculpting it beautifully without going into the dirt and leaving holes!!!! Great job !!!
Absolutely love the work you do. You can tell you’re not afraid of getting your hands and everything else dirty. I applaud your dedication and hard work. 👏👏👏
Mowing and trimming everything was a little dangerous and difficult. And will be dangerous and tricky with all the angles and tight corners. They need a landscape artist to get this to be easier to maintain.
Tough cut there in the back. But the after picture looked great. I always wonder why people let their fences get so covered up with brush like that... Thumbs Up!
For all that using the weedwhacker (We call them 'Whippersnippers' down under), we still need to rake the stuff up. Good old standby, the humble plastic rake. I bought a wider rake.

Too cold for power washing here in pa but definitely around April/may we will be back posting weekly videos of different landscaping/ power washing jobs. Thanks for watching !!
I used to keep my yard the best in the neighborhood. I miss working in the yard. I have a bad heart now and cannot work that hard or long. I do miss it. this is indeed stunning transformation. Good job.
