My elder neighbors got sick then the husband passed away at 90 years old. He always took such pride in keeping his yard up (with his zero turn mower) even though it took him 3 days to mow his 1 acre yard. I kept it mown all last summer with my rider. I catch a lot of grief from people asking why on earth I am mowing it for free... because it's in honor of he and his wife. I can't stand to see it get out of hand when he always took such pride in it. It's an honor to me to be able to help his wife.
Audrey Wilcox .....the folks who give you grief for doing something you enjoy and helping someone out are not even worth your waste of breath conversating with them..................Thankyou for showing you care and helping your neighbour when they need it the most.
As an elder myself, I can't even begin to tell you just how much you changed this man's life, Sean. His whole world slowly got smaller and smaller, and as you age, I can tell you, it's not a great ride. When all the things you loved to do slowly fade out of your life, it becomes more and more difficult to ask for help, because you don't have the money to pay for that help! It's one thing to ask friends occasionally, but yard work is monthly maintenance, which only rich retirees can afford. Most of us are on very limited, fixed income where this kind of maintenance is a luxury, and I'd rather pay my electric bill than mow my lawn. You, Sean, are an angel for elders in your community. Thank you from an elder living on the central Oregon coast.
Oh yes! As an older lady, who has had to maintain my own little piece of property for years, I’m seeing now, slowly but surly it’s getting more difficult to do myself as time goes on. It’s very sad and hurts your pride and self worth. But, you keep on as long as you can. Seeing hard working and giving people like this paying it forward, is a beautiful thing! This is among my top three favorite lawn care channels on UA-cam now. Awesome job!
Roe the more I watch of these yard transformations the more upset I get with elderly parents children neighbors and churches that don’t look after their elderly parents and churches that don’t help their elderly members. I think the one that upset me most was there was this one kind gentleman that was mowing a yard and when he got to the back yard he was smelling a really bad smell and noticed the back windows were up and called 911 . When law enforcement came they found a 91 year old mother that had been dead for a week. Most children don’t take time to look after their elderly parents, churches don’t look after their elderly members. That a 91 year old mother would lie dead for a week without anyone knowing is unreal and tragic. People used to care but they don’t anymore. Well I have been a blessed mother. When my husband died my children were there so much and even took care it my 93 year old mothers yard. It’s a sad world we’re living in today.
I loved the restoration. I watched every minute. I would also like to send my regards to your lawnmower, she’s one tough little puppy. You should send this to the manufacturer and ask them to sponsor you. At least they should appreciate that their product held up.
I have to say I don’t think I’ve seen anyone else work as hard as you have to help someone else out. I could literally hear that yard, house and trees breath a sigh of relief. Great job and thank you for helping that man out. YOUR AMAZING ❤️❤️❤️
I'm from middle America and I haven't seen really hard work like Sean's since I was a child on a family farm!! Dad and 5 brothers worked from sunrise to sunset in the summer!
After watching this I came out with 4 takeaways: 1) You Sir are a Saint and we need so many more like you in the world! 🙏 2) Your lawnmower took a beating...I can't believe it survived any of this! 💪 3) You removed that man's prison walls that were slowly closing in around him. What a truly generous act. ❤ 4) I'll bet that once you were done, the inside of his home saw more light than it had in decades. With everything removed away from the outside of the windows, the ability for light to shine through and once again brighten his days had to have been emotional for him. 🥰 Thank you for being such a wonderful example of what it means to be a good neighbor, a productive member of society and a humanitarian. I fear for future generations but right now, it's people like yourself that are the true heroes as there is no greater act than a selfless one. God bless you.
Wondering, if he has any children that could have helped out before it got to this!! Again the dedication and determination to complete this monumental task. You are a Angel.
You didn't knock it out of the park. You knocked it out of the town! You could tell that the property was once the man's pride and joy. All the brick work on the flower beds. All the different plants and trees. That was a marathon. Just WOW!
Watching this video literally brought tears to my eyes. I have said for years that people seem to have forgotten the elderly and it just touches my heart to see you bust your bottom to help him. Pushing a lawnmower not riding one, you sir are one of God‘s faithful servants and it won’t go unnoticed. May your life be blessed as you bless others
I’m a 69 year old woman. I love working in my yard, but each year it gets harder to keep it to my satisfaction. Of course every year I plant more things and make new beds, so there’s that. LOL. Gardening is my happy place. I think that if my back was still in good shape, I’d do work like this for others. I admire you so!
OMG! I’ve never seen someone’s yard so horribly overgrown as this one! That poor elderly gentleman…bless his heart…Shawn! You’ve gone over and above what was needed, those vines are vicious! God bless you!
I hope you can find someone to help you. Its rare anymore for people to just help each other. I would help but I'm sure your nowhere near where I live. 🇨🇦
Shawn, what you have done by making this a safe place for him to get out in the garden, is to give him back some independence. That Sir is the best you can do for a person as they age. May God bless you, Shawn
I have to give you the utmost respect for even taking on this job. You not only helped an older person out, but more than likely saved him from the danger the animals held up in that monstrous mess. Thank God you didn't come on anything and put yourself in danger. This yard was one of the WORST I have seen you angels do. Thanks for taking it on for the older gentleman and for being the generous human being you are. Keep up the good will and take care in your generosity.
I am watching this as an old grandma, and I remember the days when I worked hard on landscaping and snow shoveling in Utah. I love to see brave strong men who are able to actually do this much work. Please be careful not to push too hard. It will come back to you when you get old. Blessings to you for helping others!
At one time, that yard was the highlight of his life. Imagine seeing your world close in around you. As the years go by, life is reduced to old, sterile walls. Then…YOU happened. He’ll take many walks with memories around that home. Thank you so much for the hours of hard work. They are worth it.
I am blown away by your work ethic! I've not watched a worse yard, but with satisfying reveals of brick work and edges. You are the one worker I would send money to, if I weren't living on a pension! Well done!!!
Thank you, Sean, for your massive kindness. If neighbors would do this and teach their kids to help, senior neighbors would not need to live on overgrown properties, and kids would learn lifelong skills, possibly leading to a career in landscaping! Everyone would win! 🥰
You deserve a prestigious lawn mower award for this one! What a total transformation! Hope he goes out and walks it. Sure he'll feel at LEAST 30 years younger. Superb Job! 👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍
Hey Sean I just want to say that this is absolutely incredible. Most people would probably walk away from this, but you did it. You took your time, and that’s what’s important about lawn-mowing and gardening , you can go fast and miss something, or you can go slower and spot the problems. But the commitment to make this extremely long video and edit it and cut it together, it’s another level of commitment. Your the gardener that everyone needs. I just wanted to say this is amazing, and I think that old gentleman will sleep well knowing he can go back in his yard again. This is my new channel 😂
Sean, I love what you are doing for people. Great man. Please don't take this the wrong way, but please wear a mask. For your own health and lungs. My cousin just past away a horrible death for not wearing a mask while painting for a living. I know it may be hot, but they have great mask out there that can spear your lungs. Just thinking of your well being. You have a great heart. Thank you for what you are doing. 😊❤🕊 🙏.
This was totally AWESOME! You, my Sir, are a force unlike any other. In my 67 yrs I have never seen such tenacious work. You leave no stone uncovered Sean. What you leave behind is a masterpiece for the homeowner and the neighborhood. May God bless you tremendously. You captured my heart with your giving spirit to those less fortunate. New subscriber from Florida 🌞⛱️🦈🐊
You did a fantastic job cleaning that older man's yard. It's obvious that he spent a lot of time working in his yard when he was able to, all the flower beds and the way he lined the fence in the back yard with bricks. Thank you for helping him when he is unable to help himself.
The work the owners put into that garden it would have been so lovely in the day. I’m sure there must have been tears by the owner seeing it come back to a lovely place to enjoy again. Well done again Sean 👏🏼👏🏼 you are amazing.
The icing on the cake now would be if another wonderful humanitarian or two could fix & paint the exterior and bring the house back to it’s former glory 🙌🏽.
This was a TON of work! What a blessing for this elderly person, who will now be able to go out and enjoy his/her beautiful yard. I gotta give you credit for taking on this difficult job!
There is still lots of trash that would have to be dumped, in a dump . Old rusty junk and all . O M G ! This man that did what he could is amazing for what he did . Gods blessings to him .
You sir are a God send for these elderly folks. Giving of your time and resources means the world to them. I am lucky enough to have 5 sons who maintain my front and back yards because I am an amputee and lost my left leg last February. I just think you are wonderful. God bless and you gained another subscriber! I am from Pittsburgh PA, USA.
I’m very much pleased to know that there’s wonderful people like yourself who’s not forgotten about our elderly. Continued blessings to you. Can’t believe I missed this one.
I’m sure the owner was an amazing gardener. The yard was beautiful with all kind of flowers bulbs bushes and trees. I wish I could have seen it. Blessings for helping them
WOW! It doesn’t look at all like the same property! Sean, you’re the hardest working man on UA-cam! Seriously you put more than 100% of yourself into your work, if that’s possible! Great job as always! 👍👍❤️🇺🇸
Sean I am so thankful you have decided to use your incredible energy and strength and endurance to help people in need! What a mighty force you are for GOOD in this world‼️
After watching all that, Sean, never underestimate how good you are. The eternal optimist, the glass half full man, the impact and joy you bring to your community and to us, your fans. Bless you, for all you do and take care. You will always be our #1. BLADE MATE LAWN CARE 🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟
having watched these as you posted them, didn't make one appreciate exactly how much work went into the entire yard. Yes, one saw each portion, but the yard as a whole was colossal and you did all that on your own. You deserve a medal mate. Truly.
I've never seen anyone work so hard to help someone else - it’s like the yard, house, and trees all breathed a sigh of relief. Amazing job, thank you! ❤❤❤
Yards like this hide so much love. Loving memories of children playing there, Easter egg hunts, BBQs looking out the windows watching kids play and grow. time passes and weeds grow, Sadness takes over and helps the grass to over grow as well as trees. What you did was good for him of course but to neighbors, back front side and those who drive bye. And thanks for touching all of who watched and who understood it was not just about cutting grass giving life back to the gentleman. .
Wow! Its Sean against nature and you won! This is the most aggressive HUGE cleanup ever! It was so satisfying seeing you pull the vines out of the trees and bushes! Ive watched twice! Well done! ❤❤❤
I don’t think I’ve ever seen as many nasturtiums in one yard as I’ve seen in this gentleman’s yard. I’m sure he’s very thankful for what you are doing. ❤️
Dude, This was the most epic long transformation I have ever seen. You've got my utmost respect. I don't think I could have done it all. I'll keep watching from Detroit Michigan USA
I can’t think of a word to describe the work you put in to this. And there wasn’t even grass just vines and sticks and who knows what else. I can’t imagine how you did this….amazing. I sincerely hope the good you do for others in need will be returned to you.
This looks like it was a well laid out & loved garden once...sad the old gentleman can no longer care for it. Thank you Sean for caring enough to help him out. 👍🥰
I enjoyed the whole 2 hours 45 minutes, Sean. I've watched several lawn guys and you're the first I've seen shoving a push mower around! That sucker is as hard a worker as you are, buddy! It is a mulching maniac!
Well you are deserving of that title, I'm sure your family is proud, and your country. I feel blessed at the age of 73, I'm still able to do my yard work, but you just never know about tomorrow. Blessings to you and yours, from Ohio, USA.
You would think with all the neighbors on that street that one or some would get together to help this man who is no longer capable to do it himself. Everyone else's yard from what I can see look manicured and well-kept. If for no other reason than to keep the whole neighborhood looking nice. Thank you for taking on such a massive undertaking. I am sure this man appreciated your work and kindness more than you will ever know.
The problem in this world is there is no respect for the older people on behalf of the younger. We will all get old so we must think also of them. I just cut the grass today for my neighbour. Great job Sean.
This home must of had some beautiful gardens at one time. There are so many intentional islands. I hope someone paints the house for him. Did the man ever show you pictures of what the home looked like in the past? The job you did is one of the most incredible ones I have ever seen. And you did it all yourself. Great job❣
It would be nice if several lawn care providers could get together and alternate helping this gentleman so it could be kept up. Bless you for beginning the process. The property looks large enough to be challenging for any one person, let alone an elderly man. Getting old doesn’t cancel us it just means we need more community involvement to do what use to be easier in youth. Love the progress checks, absolutely amazing, you’re an artist of nature and masterfully done. The gym has nothing in comparison to the workout you got on this project; cardio, vascular, and strengthening in one.
You brought the light back to this man's home..I'm sure with all that overgrowth he wasn't getting much. You're the best kind of human being..why his neighbourhood didn't help him is beyond me. Bless you.
Some people just assume that's how others want to live and decide to leave them alone. "Stay in their lane. Mind their business." Etc. It results in neglect of the neighborhoods. 😟 I'm glad you're not this way.
I don't know how but I think I missed this clean up when it was originally posted but I've just spent the last couple of hours watching. I'm sure this had a big impact on this gentleman. You have a big heart Sean and lots of respect from me.
I watched this whole video, and can say it’s the most intense transformation I’ve seen on ANYONE’S channel. This garden must have been a show place years ago. I can tell there was a tremendous amount of time, money, and thought that went into it. Thanks so much for showcasing this one! Kudos to you for your determination! 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
HOLY COW!!! It feels like the entire yard was FILLED with millions of meters of vines. Incredible work!!! A year has passed already, and I wonder how it all looks now and how is the old gentleman doing :)
I can't believe what you did in this video. Have never seen a yard in that condition before. Thank u for being so kind to this gentleman. The world needs more people like u. God bless u, Sir!
As far as I am concerned I see a ferocious and committed worker who is diligent in his craft. As well as I can where I live I try to pay it forward the best that I can with the neighbors and their lawn and garden care. At 76 yrs. of age it often is difficult to do. Sean is young,energetic and disciplined. I see a lot of lawn care U Tube posts and I have to say Sean you excel and when I compare others to your post I think your contribution and efforts go beyond what others post.!. Thank you for posting. You inspire me to keep on trucking thru the difficult jobs.!.
When I watch these videos of people doing lawn clean up for elderly people I often wonder how the neighbors could allow that person to be neglected like that. People like you are a true hero for stepping in and doing this work for this man. I am sure he is overwhelmed by your kindness and thoughtfulness. You are a real God-send.
❣️Standing ovation!❣️ I felt like you were bushwhacking thru the jungle uncovering signs of an early civilization. 😳 It's rather heartbreaking the work and care that went into that garden with all the beds and borders outlined in brick, just to be smothered in vines for decades.🥺 I hope someone can keep it up now.😊
That was one of the most epic yard transformations I have seen on UA-cam. You were god sent to this elderly man and I am sure he loved all you did for him. Great job👏👍
For a moment there I thought I was at the Amazon jungle. You really deserve a standing ovation Sean....not everybody would have been willing and able to do such a tremendous task. This job only reafirms that you are #1 in your field. Love your videos and am always expecting for the latest one. Great job!!!! (Applause)
1,5 Million views and right now only 31.000 Likes. Come on people. A like gives more income to this kind man. It only can function as a viable business model to do this for free (he spent 10 workdays!) if all that thinks he deserve it leaves a like. THAT does NOT cost any of us anything and we have enjoyed watching the work, right? Remember to give that LIKE! (please)
Mr Blade Mate, the more i see your work the more impressed I become! Your stamina is most impressive! You are the type of person that you would expect to be a Military man Disaplen and compassion ! You are one of a kind, kind and human being be proud of yourself Your town ship should honer you! Thanks for the most impressave videos! keep them comming! Thank you from Texas
I used to watch 4 lawn care guys. One I rarely watch anymore, one doesn't seem to do many grass cutting videos anymore and the 3 rd one I watch maybe 4 times a week but out out 4 guys I think Sean does the best with cutting, mowing, weed wacking and cleaning up. 😊😄 I think the problem is not too many people care about their aging relatives like earlier generations did. This job was a real biggin💜💙💜💙. I love it when bushed and trees are removed to show nice windows the sun can go inside again. That 80 year old will love seeing the sun come in their windows again. 🙂 I hope you didn't hurt yourself when you fell over backwards.😵 You got a real workout on this one.
wow! you sir have got my respect! I've never seen anyone clean up a yard like this one. amazing job! Be proud! I can only imagine that back in the day, this was a home and garden showplace with all the flowers, plants, etc.
What an amazing makeover that property was! I have never seen so much work done by one man with all the videos I've watched! I watched this all at one time as you can see by the date I am writing this message Sean! You did more than anyone I have watched on UA-cam in the landscaping business. WOW doesn't begin to express how great that job was!!! AWESOME!!!!!!!
Don’t know how you stayed with it Sean. Darn good job. 👏👏👏👏👏. Bet the old Gent saw stuff he hasn’t seen in 50 years 😳😳. Thank you 🙏 for a great podcast 🙏🙏❤️❤️
This house was an amazing transformation. I believe the backyard was the worst. But you did it, I couldn't believe I was always waiting for the next video. Thank you for the revisit. 👍
It is so obvious this gentleman put a lot of time, effort, and love into his yard when he was able. Thank you for the recap of this wonderful blessing to an elder community member.
WOW Sean, I am at a loss for words on what you have done with this house.The hours of work you put into this shows what kind of person you are! Amazing job, you have earned a gold ribbon for this job! God Bless you !😃
I watched these the first time through, but I just had to watch it again as it is unbelievable! SO much work went into this, including all the video editing. You are a paragon of kindess, understanding and outstanding work ethic. I remember from the first showing that you even took time to chat with the owner. You didn't have to do any of this, but you did it all anyway (and with the help of your friends). May you receive goodness right back to you tenfold.
Somehow I missed this one ;( It was fantastic. You could tell at one time that yard was amazing and well loved. Thank you so much for giving a new beginning. What you do is more than yard care, it is giving back to the people that live in these places what they worked so hard to create. Keep up the good work kiddo. Hope this finds you and yours happy and healthy.
At one time this was probably a beautiful yard; she had beds of geraniums, fern, lilies and more. It is too bad as a society we do not watch out for our aging or I’ll neighbors. This yard shouldn’t have gotten so bad, neighbors should have stepped in to mow occasionally. Thank you for helping to clean up our communities.
The last household task my grandfather gave up to me to take over was lawnmowing. He had such pride in keeping his lawn nicely maintained. I ended up learning from videos like this one on how to take care of a lawn. I'd only ever used a ride-on as a child. Nowdays I can do a pretty tidy edge with a whipper-snipper.
Number and variety of plants, curbing, and walkways make it clear this was once a beautifully landscaped yard. Thanks for bringing it back from sad overgrowth!
Já jsem se jen v němém úžasu dívala jak pracujete. Klobouk dolů. Opravdu nemám slov, abych vyjádřila co všechno jste musel podstoupit, aby jste zlikvidoval ten hrozný odpad. Majitelé musí být maximálně rádi, že to pro ně vůbec někdo udělal. A já vám děkuji za neskutečný zážitek!! 👍👍👍👏👏👏🌿

Just as good the second time around....you might want to think about getting a small chain saw...GREAT JOB!
Perdone me por favor, ablo, escribo, un poco, porqe estoy desde Russia. Pero, me gustas , esta muy bueno el video! Muchas grasias
👍🏾👍🏾👍🏾
I love how the Birds follow you around clearing up the seeds and bugs
Out of Curiosity how much would you have quoted the labor on that property ?

That is not hard to understand at all. Besides feeling like you are honoring them it gives you pleasure
You are a special angel 😇
I used to tell my kids they would never regret doing the right and honerable thing. Keep taking care of your neighbor. Well done.
Your a good person stay that way we need more of you

Well said. Let's add snow to the mix. His mowers are perfect size, or he's a big gent.

Meus olhos suaram. De fato um gesto grandioso e que se torne um exemplo para mais pessoas.
So very we said. I agree 💯. God bless him always and keep him in his care 😘
太厲害了

Wow wow that’s incredible 😅😊😊😢😮
I am an 80 year old who cares about how my home looks, but can’t do it all myself anymore. You are a very, very kind man. ❤️
I hope you can find someone to help you. Its rare anymore for people to just help each other. I would help but I'm sure your nowhere near where I live. 🇨🇦
God grant you good health🤗

Such a beautiful comment, very well put. 💖
@@lisapully9274 ditto
Amen to that!!!
My sediments exactly 💯. Sean ty so very much! I'm sure he will walk out daily. What a blessing!!
"memories", you said?! I think the panorama from before spoke for itself. The current one is the present reality!!
I am blown away by your work ethic! I've not watched a worse yard, but with satisfying reveals of brick work and edges. You are the one worker I would send money to, if I weren't living on a pension! Well done!!!
Once I started, I couldn’t stop watching! What a wonderful job! I hope this man is able to sit outside and enjoy his yard again!
I hope so too!
Thank you, Sean, for your massive kindness. If neighbors would do this and teach their kids to help, senior neighbors would not need to live on overgrown properties, and kids would learn lifelong skills, possibly leading to a career in landscaping! Everyone would win! 🥰
Amen!! 😊
The original 6 parter series was my introduction to lawn care videos & I’ve been hooked ever since. This one is still the most amazing I’ve seen.
Gday Jim, thanks mate!
You deserve a prestigious lawn mower award for this one! What a total transformation! Hope he goes out and walks it. Sure he'll feel at LEAST 30 years younger. Superb Job! 👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍
same, jim. It got recommended because I watch a couple of other garden maintenance youtubers, and im glad the algorithm threw me this way.
Have you tried cow hoof trimming videos? Recommend the Hoof GP and Nate the hoof guy. No idea why but they are mesmerising.
@@Mephiston 👋🏼👋🏼👋🏼it happened same to me today, I just subscribed now😊
What a great job you did for this man's yard. You have a giving soul...MAY the Lord bless you for all your hard work. I watched the whole video.
If I hadn't seen it with my own eyes I would not have believed that one man and a push mower did that all by himself. Awesome job
Shawn, I can’t believe you did this yard all by yourself! You are amazing! God Bless you!
Hey Sean
I just want to say that this is absolutely incredible. Most people would probably walk away from this, but you did it. You took your time, and that’s what’s important about lawn-mowing and gardening , you can go fast and miss something, or you can go slower and spot the problems.
But the commitment to make this extremely long video and edit it and cut it together, it’s another level of commitment. Your the gardener that everyone needs.
I just wanted to say this is amazing, and I think that old gentleman will sleep well knowing he can go back in his yard again.
This is my new channel 😂
Love your words, thank you!
Led me to think
Sean, I love what you are doing for people. Great man. Please don't take this the wrong way, but please wear a mask. For your own health and lungs. My cousin just past away a horrible death for not wearing a mask while painting for a living. I know it may be hot, but they have great mask out there that can spear your lungs. Just thinking of your well being. You have a great heart. Thank you for what you are doing. 😊❤🕊 🙏.
This was totally AWESOME! You, my Sir, are a force unlike any other. In my 67 yrs I have never seen such tenacious work. You leave no stone uncovered Sean. What you leave behind is a masterpiece for the homeowner and the neighborhood. May God bless you tremendously. You captured my heart with your giving spirit to those less fortunate.

You did a fantastic job cleaning that older man's yard. It's obvious that he spent a lot of time working in his yard when he was able to, all the flower beds and the way he lined the fence in the back yard with bricks. Thank you for helping him when he is unable to help himself.
I think those were nasturtiums all over the yard. I can imagine his wife planted them decades ago and once they kept up the yard together.
The work the owners put into that garden it would have been so lovely in the day. I’m sure there must have been tears by the owner seeing it come back to a lovely place to enjoy again. Well done again Sean 👏🏼👏🏼 you are amazing.
The icing on the cake now would be if another wonderful humanitarian or two could fix & paint the exterior and bring the house back to it’s former glory 🙌🏽.
This was a TON of work! What a blessing for this elderly person, who will now be able to go out and enjoy his/her beautiful yard. I gotta give you credit for taking on this difficult job!
There is still lots of trash that would have to be dumped, in a dump . Old rusty junk and all . O M G ! This man that did what he could is amazing for what he did . Gods blessings to him .
I did !
@@maggierumsey9005 He did say near the end, that the other chap asked for those things to be left, the bricks and metal. He has Plans for them.
This is the largest and most impressive makeover I’ve ever seen. Great job!
You sir are a God send for these elderly folks. Giving of your time and resources means the world to them. I am lucky enough to have 5 sons who maintain my front and back yards because I am an amputee and lost my left leg last February. I just think you are wonderful. God bless and you gained another subscriber! I am from Pittsburgh PA, USA.
Thanks and welcome :)
I’m very much pleased to know that there’s wonderful people like yourself who’s not forgotten about our elderly. Continued blessings to you. Can’t believe I missed this one.
I’m sure the owner was an amazing gardener. The yard was beautiful with all kind of flowers bulbs bushes and trees. I wish I could have seen it. Blessings for helping them
WOW! It doesn’t look at all like the same property! Sean, you’re the hardest working man on UA-cam! Seriously you put more than 100% of yourself into your work, if that’s possible! Great job as always! 👍👍❤️🇺🇸
Yep he sure is
That’s amazing!!
Sean I am so thankful you have decided to use your incredible energy and strength and endurance to help people in need! What a mighty force you are for GOOD in this world‼️
That was amazing. That could have easily been a job for 10 men! I am sure that the owner is so happy with what you did and how his yard looks now.
After watching all that, Sean, never underestimate how good you are. The eternal optimist, the glass half full man, the impact and joy you bring to your community and to us, your fans. Bless you, for all you do and take care. You will always be our #1. BLADE MATE LAWN CARE 🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟
💯👍👍
having watched these as you posted them, didn't make one appreciate exactly how much work went into the entire yard. Yes, one saw each portion, but the yard as a whole was colossal and you did all that on your own. You deserve a medal mate. Truly.
I've never seen anyone work so hard to help someone else - it’s like the yard, house, and trees all breathed a sigh of relief. Amazing job, thank you! ❤❤❤
Yards like this hide so much love. Loving memories of children playing there, Easter egg hunts, BBQs looking out the windows watching kids play and grow. time passes and weeds grow, Sadness takes over and helps the grass to over grow as well as trees. What you did was good for him of course but to neighbors, back front side and those who drive bye. And thanks for touching all of who watched and who understood it was not just about cutting grass giving life back to the gentleman. .
This is my FOURTH time watching this one! I absolutely love this yard.... I'm Hoping he can get his house repainted
Wow! Its Sean against nature and you won! This is the most aggressive HUGE cleanup ever! It was so satisfying seeing you pull the vines out of the trees and bushes! Ive watched twice! Well done! ❤❤❤
Thank God for your good heart in helping this elderly gentleman.
I don’t think I’ve ever seen as many nasturtiums in one yard as I’ve seen in this gentleman’s yard. I’m sure he’s very thankful for what you are doing. ❤️
Dude, This was the most epic long transformation I have ever seen. You've got my utmost respect. I don't think I could have done it all. I'll keep watching from Detroit Michigan USA
thanks mate
Me as well Ohio USA
Me too! ❤ from Louisiana USA. Sean, I hope you revisit this home....with herbicide in hand....have some coffee with the old folks.
I can’t think of a word to describe the work you put in to this. And there wasn’t even grass just vines and sticks and who knows what else. I can’t imagine how you did this….amazing. I sincerely hope the good you do for others in need will be returned to you.
This looks like it was a well laid out & loved garden once...sad the old gentleman can no longer care for it. Thank you Sean for caring enough to help him out. 👍🥰
I enjoyed the whole 2 hours 45 minutes, Sean. I've watched several lawn guys and you're the first I've seen shoving a push mower around! That sucker is as hard a worker as you are, buddy! It is a mulching maniac!
I want one!
Can you imagine using the old school ones? You know what i mean. No motor, just blades, tires....OMG..haha
Well you are deserving of that title, I'm sure your family is proud, and your country. I feel blessed at the age of 73, I'm still able to do my yard work, but you just never know about tomorrow. Blessings to you and yours, from Ohio, USA.
This is the biggest job I’ve ever seen any landscaper do‼️‼️🙏🏻🙏🏻. And you did it to help an 80 year old man SO PROUD OF YOU SIR💕💕😀😘
Watching this inspires me to take better care of my own community. 🙌🌟 Amazing job!
You would think with all the neighbors on that street that one or some would get together to help this man who is no longer capable to do it himself. Everyone else's yard from what I can see look manicured and well-kept. If for no other reason than to keep the whole neighborhood looking nice. Thank you for taking on such a massive undertaking. I am sure this man appreciated your work and kindness more than you will ever know.
This has been my favorite clean up so far. I'd love to see new footage of this yard as it is this year. I hope the old man is doing well, too!
The problem in this world is there is no respect for the older people on behalf of the younger. We will all get old so we must think also of them. I just cut the grass today for my neighbour. Great job Sean.
Quite simply the biggest yard transformation I've even seen on UA-cam. Well done
This home must of had some beautiful gardens at one time. There are so many intentional islands. I hope someone paints the house for him. Did the man ever show you pictures of what the home looked like in the past? The job you did is one of the most incredible ones I have ever seen. And you did it all yourself. Great job❣
needs more than a lick of paint unfortunately some of the house needs a reskin...
The brickwork is beautiful!
Looks like it's more than 10 years not clear.
Fantastic! Thank you for helping this gentleman and making sure he was safe. You always go the extra mile Sean
It would be nice if several lawn care providers could get together and alternate helping this gentleman so it could be kept up. Bless you for beginning the process. The property looks large enough to be challenging for any one person, let alone an elderly man. Getting old doesn’t cancel us it just means we need more community involvement to do what use to be easier in youth. Love the progress checks, absolutely amazing, you’re an artist of nature and masterfully done. The gym has nothing in comparison to the workout you got on this project; cardio, vascular, and strengthening in one.
Totally agree, fabulous idea 👍
Can only imagine how nice this yard used to look when he was able to take care of it. They had put a lot of work into making it nice.
You brought the light back to this man's home..I'm sure with all that overgrowth he wasn't getting much. You're the best kind of human being..why his neighbourhood didn't help him is beyond me. Bless you.
I was thinking the same thing about the neighbors didn’t bother to check if he need any help, it’s so sad
Some people just assume that's how others want to live and decide to leave them alone. "Stay in their lane. Mind their business." Etc.
It results in neglect of the neighborhoods. 😟
I'm glad you're not this way.
I wonder if he has no family at all? I would never have let my parent or grandparent live like that. Poor old guy
I agree with you one hundred percent I don't understand why people don't pitch in and help the elderly diapers
That was amazing! And with a push mower no less
I don't know how but I think I missed this clean up when it was originally posted but I've just spent the last couple of hours watching. I'm sure this had a big impact on this gentleman. You have a big heart Sean and lots of respect from me.
I watched this whole video, and can say it’s the most intense transformation I’ve seen on ANYONE’S channel. This garden must have been a show place years ago. I can tell there was a tremendous amount of time, money, and thought that went into it. Thanks so much for showcasing this one! Kudos to you for your determination! 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
HOLY COW!!! It feels like the entire yard was FILLED with millions of meters of vines. Incredible work!!! A year has passed already, and I wonder how it all looks now and how is the old gentleman doing :)
I can't believe what you did in this video. Have never seen a yard in that condition before. Thank u for being so kind to this gentleman. The world needs more people like u. God bless u, Sir!
As far as I am concerned I see a ferocious and committed worker who is diligent in his craft. As well as I can where I live I try to pay it forward the best that I can with the neighbors and their lawn and garden care. At 76 yrs. of age it often is difficult to do. Sean is young,energetic and disciplined. I see a lot of lawn care U Tube posts and I have to say Sean you excel and when I compare others to your post I think your contribution and efforts go beyond what others post.!. Thank you for posting. You inspire me to keep on trucking thru the difficult jobs.!.
When I watch these videos of people doing lawn clean up for elderly people I often wonder how the neighbors could allow that person to be neglected like that. People like you are a true hero for stepping in and doing this work for this man. I am sure he is overwhelmed by your kindness and thoughtfulness. You are a real God-send.
❣️Standing ovation!❣️
I felt like you were bushwhacking thru the jungle uncovering signs of an early civilization. 😳
It's rather heartbreaking the work and care that went into that garden with all the beds and borders outlined in brick, just to be smothered in vines for decades.🥺
I hope someone can keep it up now.😊
That was one of the most epic yard transformations I have seen on UA-cam. You were god sent to this elderly man and I am sure he loved all you did for him. Great job👏👍
For a moment there I thought I was at the Amazon jungle. You really deserve a standing ovation Sean....not everybody would have been willing and able to do such a tremendous task. This job only reafirms that you are #1 in your field. Love your videos and am always expecting for the latest one. Great job!!!! (Applause)
You care as much for your clients safety as you about your work!! What a good man.
1,5 Million views and right now only 31.000 Likes. Come on people. A like gives more income to this kind man. It only can function as a viable business model to do this for free (he spent 10 workdays!) if all that thinks he deserve it leaves a like. THAT does NOT cost any of us anything and we have enjoyed watching the work, right? Remember to give that LIKE! (please)
Shawn you are a BEAST…man you did a terrific job on that yard…you need a much needed massage and vacation ❣️
Mr Blade Mate, the more i see your work the more impressed I become! Your stamina is most impressive! You are the type of person that you would expect to be a Military man Disaplen and compassion ! You are one of a kind, kind and human being be proud of yourself Your town ship should honer you! Thanks for the most impressave videos! keep them comming! Thank you from Texas
I used to watch 4 lawn care guys. One I rarely watch anymore, one doesn't seem to do many grass cutting videos anymore and the 3 rd one I watch maybe 4 times a week but out out 4 guys I think Sean does the best with cutting, mowing, weed wacking and cleaning up. 😊😄 I think the problem is not too many people care about their aging relatives like earlier generations did. This job was a real biggin💜💙💜💙. I love it when bushed and trees are removed to show nice windows the sun can go inside again. That 80 year old will love seeing the sun come in their windows again. 🙂 I hope you didn't hurt yourself when you fell over backwards.😵 You got a real workout on this one.
This wasn’t a yard, it was a jungle! WOW! Awesome job 😎
Salute to u sir
Agree
I have never seen so much nasturtium growing in one place! Wonderful work! 🌿
wow! you sir have got my respect! I've never seen anyone clean up a yard like this one. amazing job! Be proud! I can only imagine that back in the day, this was a home and garden showplace with all the flowers, plants, etc.
What an amazing makeover that property was! I have never seen so much work done by one man with all the videos I've watched! I watched this all at one time as you can see by the date I am writing this message Sean! You did more than anyone I have watched on UA-cam in the landscaping business. WOW doesn't begin to express how great that job was!!! AWESOME!!!!!!!
Don’t know how you stayed with it Sean. Darn good job. 👏👏👏👏👏. Bet the old Gent saw stuff he hasn’t seen in 50 years 😳😳. Thank you 🙏 for a great podcast 🙏🙏❤️❤️
You’re a giant of a man for taking care of this yard. Good job
You truly did an absolutely awesome job on this old gentleman's garden. You have such a fantastic work ethic and an incredibly kind soul.
This house was an amazing transformation. I believe the backyard was the worst. But you did it, I couldn't believe I was always waiting for the next video. Thank you for the revisit. 👍
10 days--I couldn't do this in 10 Months!! You are totally spectacularly awesome, Sean!
It is so obvious this gentleman put a lot of time, effort, and love into his yard when he was able. Thank you for the recap of this wonderful blessing to an elder community member.
WOW Sean, I am at a loss for words on what you have done with this house.The hours of work you put into this shows what kind of person you are! Amazing job, you have earned a gold ribbon for this job! God Bless you !😃
This yard was labor intensive, and you did it for free! You have a heart of gold for helping that man out!
You will never need to go to the gym again! Fantastic job.
I watched these the first time through, but I just had to watch it again as it is unbelievable! SO much work went into this, including all the video editing. You are a paragon of kindess, understanding and outstanding work ethic. I remember from the first showing that you even took time to chat with the owner. You didn't have to do any of this, but you did it all anyway (and with the help of your friends). May you receive goodness right back to you tenfold.
Good on you understanding that someone shouldn’t have to move out of the home they love. Thank you for helping!
Somehow I missed this one ;( It was fantastic. You could tell at one time that yard was amazing and well loved. Thank you so much for giving a new beginning. What you do is more than yard care, it is giving back to the people that live in these places what they worked so hard to create. Keep up the good work kiddo. Hope this finds you and yours happy and healthy.
Community spirit sems to have disappeared, thank you for helping this gent.
At one time this was probably a beautiful yard; she had beds of geraniums, fern, lilies and more. It is too bad as a society we do not watch out for our aging or I’ll neighbors. This yard shouldn’t have gotten so bad, neighbors should have stepped in to mow occasionally. Thank you for helping to clean up our communities.
This was by far the biggest yard transformation I’ve ever seen. Much respect to you 👍🏽👍🏽
Man! That was a challenge! You did a terrific job! 👍🏼👍🏼
You are a Saint! If there were more people like you, the world would not be in the state it is tofay. Blessings on you.
The last household task my grandfather gave up to me to take over was lawnmowing. He had such pride in keeping his lawn nicely maintained.
I ended up learning from videos like this one on how to take care of a lawn. I'd only ever used a ride-on as a child. Nowdays I can do a pretty tidy edge with a whipper-snipper.
Number and variety of plants, curbing, and walkways make it clear this was once a beautifully landscaped yard. Thanks for bringing it back from sad overgrowth!
Soooo much stuff exposed sidewalks, gardens, buildings. I loved this. It was great to see someone help you.
Bravo!!!!! What a mess for a crew to clean up let alone one lone soldier! God Bless You!
This garden must have been neglected for 20 years! You have done an amazing job on this 👏👏
You are a BLESSING sir.
Já jsem se jen v němém úžasu dívala jak pracujete. Klobouk dolů. Opravdu nemám slov, abych vyjádřila co všechno jste musel podstoupit, aby jste zlikvidoval ten hrozný odpad. Majitelé musí být maximálně rádi, že to pro ně vůbec někdo udělal. A já vám děkuji za neskutečný zážitek!! 👍👍👍👏👏👏🌿
I just love how you make a lawn come to light- unveiling all the hidden beauty! You are amazing!
Same here
