From Disaster to DREAM: How We Transformed a NEGLECTED Yard

  • Well, here we are back at another yard disaster cleanup. Last time we did the front of this property, this time we are going to finish the side and the backyard. This one is actually a deceased estate, and I was contacted by one of the daughters to do a cleanup. When I saw the place, I said that I would do it all the labour for free if she covered the tip fees. I think that that's only fair as many mowing men don't even take away the waste, hahaha. All up, we spent around 9.5 hours on this job, including 2 trips to the landfill.

    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. But most of my recent jobs have been done for free.
    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 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. I don't have the right trailer for a ride on, considering I always take away the green waste.
    2. I don't have anywhere to store it, as my shed is too small.
    3. A lot of the properties we do have fences and gates, so you can't actually get a ride-on on to the properties.
    4. I don't do enough big jobs to justify spending 15k AUD on a stander, but it would be nice to have one!
    5. I will get one as soon as my transport and storage problems are solved.
    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.

    Сегодня я первый день дома, только что выписалась из больницы, получила серьёзную травму колена на соревнованиях, 2 недели в больнице, перенесла операцию, сейчас всё хорошо, буду восстанавливаться и работать, т.е.руководить своей небольшой компанией дома. А заодно посмотрю твои видео. Спасибо большое за плейлист, теперь намного удобнее стало искать эпизоды. Как всегда отличная работа, ты и Стивен супер!!!! С уважением и восхищением Елена 🙋😉🤗

    What a great camera and love the view of your land!!!...Also your new format introducing what you are doing and letting the viewers get to know you better on a personal level. Your helper is giving you a run for your money as he is the best worker that you have become partners with in sharing the work. Love the relationship, he is quieter and you have become more vocal and I, we, your viewers love it. Keep up the great transformations with the before and after pictures. Great job George!! 🥰😍🤩

    I like your old format because I usually watch lawn, cleaning and decorating videos all without sound. The way you wrote what you are doing was better for me. I watch Midlife Stockman and he does his videos your new way but with subtitles.

    I love the talking; I enjoy learning the names of plants or the names they have In Australia. I honestly don't think you're an easy job kind of guy. Maybe do these until you get older than go for the easier ones. But honestly these are far more interesting and explorative. It is wonderous how just peeling away the growth turned it into a much more interesting garden.

    Big hugs from Toronto! Im so happy you came back with a new video and your buddy now wears the gloves !! 🧤 To be honest, the previous format i enjoyed more. I loved the quick cuts without interacting during the video, only in the beginning and in the end and i loved more the previous editing))) anyway, great job! Hope to visit Australia once )

    @loribailey8755 2 дні тому +2

    Yeah, I like the old way better, where you would just put in subtitles letting us know what's going on. That's the reason we liked watching your videos more than others because you didn't do a lot of talking, just working!

    I visited Hobart many years ago and went to the top of Mt Derwant ...think that's how you spell it. So cold and windy.
    Hey Steve-o! Great wearing gloves. You know what is in your yard but you never know what is in strange yards.❤😁🇦🇺
    🤣🤣🤣 You don't seem to find easy yards George. Whatever you get is fine by me! 😊

    That job looked like one of the more serious ones you’ve done. Quite a bit of work. Nicely done.
    Curious, how many hours do you work on a job, in a day?
    Lastly, I bet the home owners forgot they had steps/concrete in the backyard 😂😭😆🤣

    I’d rather just see you working, with now and then an explanation of what you are doing. Too many lawn guys “chat” on camera but really have nothing original to say that hasn’t been said ad nauseum on other channels. I like the format you have, but judging by the comment section, I seem to be a minority of one!

    This yard looks dangerously steep and very awkward. I can understand why the owner stopped maintaining it. I’m sure the view is spectacular, but I wouldn’t want this yard. You’re doing a good job.
    I prefer no talking. I don’t need your commentary and explanations. That’s why I like the Very Quick format. Just do the yard clean up and be done. But I’ll keep watching no matter your format.
