Surprising a Homeowner with a Garden Rescue: Yard Transformation
Вставка
- Опубліковано 6 лют 2025
- I decided to do a surprise full yard makeover for a young couple while they were away on holiday. When the daughters mother called me around to do a quote for some mowing, I took one look at this place and offered to do a complete transformation for free. I thought it would be a great surprise. I was then told that the daughter had fallen over when hiking on a glacier in New Zealand and injured her hand terribly, requiring surgery and leaving her with a slight disability. Because of this, she can no longer really garden and take care of the property as required. Her partner really isn't an outside type of person, so the yard has become quite overgrown. At the start I thought I could get it all done in one episode, but the front took me much longer than expected, and I did everything for FREE. I put in around 10 hours of labour, with one trip to the landfill and a trip to the landscaping supplies yard for mulch. This is part 1 of 2.

FAQ's:
Q: Where are you located?
A: I am from Hobart, Tasmania, Australia 🦘.
Q: Do you worry about snakes?
A: I have never even seen a snake in over 5 years on the job.
Q: Which equipment do you use?
A: Mostly STIHL power equipment (battery and petrol) and commercial Honda self-propelled mowers.
Q: How much do the jobs cost?
A: Sorry, I prefer not to talk about costs.
Q: What happened to Nick?
A: Nick was offered a full-time position at his other job as a Political admin.
Q: What happened to Brent?
A: Brent quit at the start of August 2022.
Q: Why don't you use tarps instead of bins?
A: Tarps are too difficult to move through small spaces and lift into the trailer. The same for wheelbarrows, they are only good for unloading the trailer!
Q: Why are the hot water cylinders outside?
A: I would say it's because Australia had a temperate to tropical climate, and therefore it doesn't matter that much if they are outdoors. To me, though, it seems a bit inefficient to have them outside in Tasmania with a temperate climate (coldish for 3 - 4 months per year). But that is industry standard down here 🤷♂️
Q: Why are you cutting so close to your employee!
A: I'm not cutting too close to my workers, they are standing too close to where I am working. All of my workers have been told numerous times about standing too close to the tools and about the hazards involved.
Q: Why do your workers do all the lifting and carrying?
A: Basically, they are employed to carry things and I pay them well, to do the job required.
Q: You work so well together, how do you do it?
A: That's the magic of editing. My workers are basically given instructions on what to do, I just edit it all out, so the videos look seamless!
Q: Why don't you have help?
A: I've had many problems with employees in the past, so now I work alone.
Q: Why don't you have a ride-on mower?
A: Well, there are a few reasons.
1. Currently, I don't do enough big jobs to justify spending 15k on a good ride on mower.
2. I don't have anywhere to store it.
3. A lot of the properties we do have fences and gates, so you can't actually get a ride-on in there.
4. I don't have the right trailer for a ride on, considering we always take the green waste away.
5. I will get one as soon as all of the above are solved.
Q: What happened to your workers?
A: Because the work is so hard and I expect high standards, most have quit over time. The only exception so far is Nick.
Q: What types of ladders do you use?
A: The large one is a Gorilla Adjustable Platform 150kg and the small one is a Gorilla Mighty 19. They are both adjustable.
Q: Who/what is Jim's Mowing?
A: Jim's Mowing is a franchise business. The Jim's Group is the biggest home services franchise in Australia.

Excelente como sempre profissional de primeira. Serviço completo com qualidade. Amo seus vídeos 😍
YOU HAVE DONE AMAZING JOB ❤
UNBELIEVABLE TRANSFORMATION 👍
George, what you do is NOT a "job". It's an "ART!" Great Job buddy!!!
Thanks mate 😉
Agreed your unbelievable ❤
This is for dusting off the front door mat, George! 🤣
hahaha, thank you 😂
"MAGNIFICENT" George 👍🏆 ❤
I think the time is right. We need merchandise. George's hat, sunglasses, coffee mugs and t-shirts. T-shirts for example with the following slogan:
I do things a little bit different!
Many greetings from Germany
hahaha, nice one mate, all the best 🙂🙋♂️
@@QuickCuts And a slogan for the Mug: Hi folks, this is George!
I would love one that said, ‘Let’s get stuck in…’ ❤@@franknstein965
You are a perfectionist George..as am I...and that is why I enjoy your videos so much
I have been looking for a man like you all my life.... I’m 75 now!.... I guess it’s too late.
What perfection! 38:53
Your work is always so neat and tidy. I bet this homeowner was over the moon when she saw it. Also love your choices of music. Lovely job!!
I was thinking the same ! That she'd crying with joy
Parabéns 😊 Brasil RS
I love how you treat each yard as if it is your yard. Great job. God bless.
very nice choice of music to go with the yardwork, George!!!👏👏👏
George!!!That os BEAUTIFUL!!!
How i wish you were closer to help me with my property!!!❤🍃🌳😊
Gum bark mulch….never heard of it but looks great. Very natural…. Amazing makeover George!
Yes
George's the man
Even the hen looks happier, thanks for sharing. Charles
That property looks beautifully manicured now that you’ve performed your magic on it!🥇
Incredible job. I didn't think it looked that bad at first but as the video went on and seeing how much better it got was amazing!
Well done George. I thoroughly enjoyed your makeover of this front garden. It needed your TLC. The little fairy with the broken wing....like the owner with her broken hand...but the lady will be thrilled by the way you took care of her garden while she is on holiday.
Thanks for 38+ minutes of calm bliss.
Fantastic job as always! You are the best UA-camr in your category. I often speed up other videos to get through the boring parts but there aren’t any in yours so normal speed it is. 😊
"George of the jungle" strikes again! Ok it wasn't a jungle but it looks like the Garden of Eden now. Thanks! I would say the daughter was very surprised by how it looks now. 👍👍🏆❤️
I like how you clean everything up, you don't blow the extra grass, etc., back into the lawn. You are very clean with your work. Good job.
I’m sure the home owner will be pleased with the transformation… as well as surprised with how much walkway there is near the stairs. Wasn’t expecting that large patch of grass to be over concrete.
Sir, you went the second mile on this garden...with the mulch and pressure washing!! Excellent work!!!!!
WOW WOW WOW a totally AWESOME JOB!!! Your GIFT of Vision and placement of bushes and trees is amazing. The driveways and sidewalk look brand new. God has blessed you in more ways than not. Great video and thank you.
Oh wow! This is another most awaited episode! Mighty George, you're not only an intense lawn mower/transformer but you're also artistically inclined in landscaping, gardening and designing your turf. Two thumbs again and again! 😊🎉
Thank you 🥰
George you are the best ,it’s your attention to detail that set you as the best.
Definitely in the top five as far as UA-cam garden channels go. I am curious about the big guy in the black gym pants that used to work along with you. You guys still stay in touch?
You’re very good and artistic I wish you could do my garden wow very impressive
@@dans9206yo tambien siento curiosidad por el, hacían el equipo perfecto, espero que este bien😊
I don't even have a house with a yard or garden, and I find George's videos fascinating! Great job, as always.
👏👏👏
Me, too! I live in an apartment with an eyesore of a front yard. The Quick Cuts videos make me dream of what the curb appeal could be, with an efficient lawn and landscape person on the job.
What a great makeover!! I want you to come to my house!!!❤️❤️I was hoping you’d pressure wash and you didn’t disappoint!!
George, you are the best landscaper and this lady was incredibly lucky to have you work on her yard! ❤️🇨🇦
Well done👍👍👍
very nice job,good to see very clean,watching frm Phillipines

George. I'm not saying this just to boost you ego, but there are a lot of you around especially in the U.S, but George, you leave them all for fantastic results. In other words George, YOUR THE MAN. Great job as always George.

G' Day Mr. George of the Jungle. (6am in Montreal, 7pm in Hobart) (Hobart 14c/Montreal 15c) Nothing says love like hand weeding the garden !! I did not know you were a topiary specialist, who knew !! I guess that's one of the lessons in horticultural studies, yes?? We need to get you a larger surface cleaner, me thinks !! You did a beautiful job. You went whole hog on this project, the neighbors be jealous now for sure.
You painted the room, changed the sheets, laid rose petals and uncorked the champagne.WELL DONE, it couldn't have been done better. I'm an avid gardener and something ever happened to me and someone did this for me I would be in heaven. Thanks thanks thanks.❤
😉🥰
JOB WELL DONE. ENJOYED WATCHING YOUR VIDEOS.GREETINGS FROM VIENNA , AUSTRIA , EUROPE
I so look forward to your videos!! You do a spectacular job every single time!! Excellent work!! You are truly an artist in the yard!!
Another immaculate job! This homeowner has been truly blessed!😉
Beautiful transformation George! A lovely treat to come home and find.
This job surpassed expectations, George. The trimming and the mulching were phenomenal. The owners will be thrilled when they return home. The neighbors will be impressed with the curb appeal. The next door neighbor might give you a call to weed their front yard. Looking forward to the backyard cleanup.
Thanks mate 🙂
The whole yard is smiling after George has paid a visit!
This was the first time I saw your video. You did a great job of cleaning up the yard and gardens. I’ll watch you again!
We've come to expect nothing but the best from you, George, and you delivered once again. Awesome job! :)
What a wonderful surprise!
You did an awesome job on that yard, and that was very fast 👍👍👍👍
Klasse Arbeit der Vorgarten ist wieder sauber und schön. Da sieht man die liebe d in e darin steckt super 👍
Another fantastic transformation George,I always look forward to your videos ❤😊
Thanks Jayne 🥰
I love watching you trim those trees and bushes, and really love the end result of the trim. This whole property looks brand new! 👍
The trimming is always my favorite part. It goes from "from clutter to clean".
Great as usual🤩👌👋👍
Keep up the good work Quick cuts!!
Great results as always George. Well done! 👍
Beautiful! 💚💚
Stunning job!! You turned a nice but overgrown property into a showplace.❤
That was a fantastic yard makeover George ! 👏🏼💪🏼👷🤩🏠
Great work!
Wow, another great cleanup job, good video
Hello from Yuma Arizona George. Wow, this is one transformation. Your precision, and your eye for what should be there or not always makes your makeovers, along with your eye for detail a wonder. I loved the gum mulch you added, and the power washing it's like the frosting on the cake. God bless you and yours, please stay safe.
Brilliant job looks great
Hi George, I love watching you work. It's so satisfying and calming. The edger, trimmer, mower, saw, and snippers are your tools and the grass, trees, and bushes are the canvas, and before no time, you've created a beautiful, lovely masterpiece. I absolutely love it and you. Stay safe out there. Love & Respect!! 💖👍🌱
George just went i think you can't get better you upped your game ❤❤❤❤
Пожалуйста, в ваших комментариях уточняйте - в какой стране это снято! Я живу в другом климате, и многие растения вижу только в цветочном горшке на своём окне. А вы с ними боретесь! Наш мир огромный. Спасибо, что вы наводите чистоту и порядок🎉🎉

Good time and God's blessings to you. I really like the transformations that you do. Everything is so easy and beautiful for you that you forget how hard work it is. It's just great!
This homeowner was blessed to have had you knock on the door today. You are truly a master at your craft. Garden is looking pristine again. Love the choice of music to go along with your video. So soothing. Thank you George.
Fully enjoyed this one. So completely satisfying. You do amazing transformations! 😊
George, you are such a kind hearted soul. You touched me when you took the time to sweep her doormat on the front porch. Love you and your channel Quick Cuts. Joyce from Connecticut, United States 🇺🇸❤️🙏
Beautiful result George, just perfect..
You go way above and beyond. I'm sure she is going to be so thrilled to see your hard work. You don't even hesitate you just do what needs to be done and make it look Beautiful. I'm going to give you a trophy for this one.🏆
I am just blown away how meticulous you are. A lot of other gardeners landscapers could learn a lot from you. Thank you for helping her out.
God bless you keep up the great work. By the way that ending of little bit of touch in that garden area that was fantastic. And to power wash her driveway and steps sidewalk, well I can't say enough. You are an angel!!!
Hi George , beautiful finish and a lovely gift
A superlative artist🙂🤩
