    Thank you for showing me this...I just inherited my family home and sadly my mom couldn't care for the bushes and trees around the house..im trying to save money bc I cant afford to pay for everything that needs to be done and I've decided no matter what im doing the lawncare myself..

      Sounds exactly like my story. I’m determined to learn how to DO THIS. A lot of outside and inside work. I’m just learning what tool does what. I’m slowly purchasing the things I need. If I could get a little family help……cost a lot to pay out and I am retired and actually enjoy the outdoors and hope I can turn my lawn into something beautiful❤Everybody will be peeping out of the window. Hope I have enough balance on my latter.

      I’m in this exact situation, my holly bushes are out front and taller than the ones in this video and I’m torn between tearing them out completely or trying to knock them down shorter like this. They block a lot of the view from the windows..

  • @Mama.Medusa

    I take care of my parents lawn & watching y’all definitely helps. I just cut her holly bushes to nothing bc to be honest those won’t die & I hate them. They bite me & I can’t bite them back. Lol

    I'm a homeowner that has a high holly hedge in front of the house. I've knocked it down twice in 15 years only to see it come back with a vengeance each time. Better to do moderately aggressive trimming every three or four years than waiting seven here in Northern Virginia. I want to reinforce your technique of cutting once at the height you want versus doing several medium cuts to work your way down. The clean-up is a TON easier and, frankly, safer. Also, it's worth investing in some gauntlet work gloves.

    Great job! Statistically speaking, we look at these videos to see how to do these specific bushes. I found it fascinating. That you mentioned cost, hazards and expenses leading up too the charge for the job was outstanding. It should be known many of us have spouses whom hate to pay for things. You should include a brief summary for wives to understand why such jobs may be expensive, that it will be shown to men’s wives to demonstrate, what is reasonable price versus what might not be.
    In my case I have. Holly Tree, needing trimming, but it’s like 13 feet tall and some 6’5 around.
    Just so you know, this video is going to become required watching for my Wife today! So she can understand people need to make money, and their labors should be valued or they should see the the stress and labor they are saving their husbands, just to help cheap!
    Again, thank you, and always include some statement specifically addressed to cheap housewives … obviously choose wording carefully 😊 but it really helps husbands use your videos to get points across to wives that hate to spend money on labor.
    You did a great job explaining what you did. Include completed job; so wives can understand that while it might look horrendous afterwards (no leaves) it nevertheless is necessary to achieve the initial demand … reduction in size, width etc..
    Thank you I will subscribe.

    @LHLWASRIGHT 3 роки тому +11

    Hey grunt great job. Personally I wear long sleeves and gloves to avoid getting tore up. This bush is very hardy and can be done at anytime any season. I do it it early spring or early winter. There is plenty of yard work but I don't care about the money all that much. I give a fair price for my labor. Let folks know exactly what they are asking me to do. They will understand the honesty.

    When I was in my mid-20s, back in the 1980s, I did a job for a relative where we had to cut down overgrown Boxwood, Arborvitae, and Cyprus. We were bloody, the one guy broke out in hives like he had poison ivy, it sucked, and the worst part was that I scratched my eyeball, and had to go to the ER, and then to an ophthalmologist to get it treated.

At that point I put in my months notice and I go solo on my journey to becoming an entrepreneur. I have a truck that I saved up within that year also a couple of tools. Just got my website up.

    I only learned to identify a holly, not see them growing. No joke. That was a lovely hedge. It did not cut down like a juniper or others do, with foliage remaining. Did the owner truly understand it would leave "stumps" that would grow back to form? Nice job, you remembered the extras that made it stand out and sorry it was a hazard.
