I spoke with a neighbor about this house and they told me it has been abandoned for some time. An elderly man used to live there but was forced to move out due to the foundation sinking. Since then, years went by with squatters living in it and it making the whole neighborhood look bad. It was boarded up and left to rot. So, I thought I would clean it up and make it look a little bit better for everyone that lives around it.

I found the most amazing Dr on betterhelp. Love you promote this
I need to help dealing with my loved ones who have mental illness.
@@glchild251 Are you near a county hospital?
Love your work, it’s such a large yard.

No channel on YT edges like Spencer. Truly a work of art. Just incredible! This is not mowing, there is no word in English for your passion.
Lol
I love that you don't care what condition the house is in or if the bank owns it, you just want to make the neighborhood look a little nicer for everyone 😊
I'm sure the neighbors are very grateful for this! Another corner lot saved by SB and his wonderful shovel!
Would be funny to say and his trusty shovel, like they are a dynamic duo.
I love the scenes with his trusty shovel most of all! It makes my shoulders hurt though...lol
We saw at least one neighbor who will have it easier because of his efforts. That woman on the mobility scooter (around 9:48) will have access to cleared sidewalks on that corner again.
Behind every one of the SB Mowing cleanups is a sad story of a family overwhelmed by the problems of the world that manifest themselves as weeds and tall grass.
Thanks for helping everyone! Shame on that landlord for not fixing all these things that are their responsibility and making all the neighbors have to worry about it. Bet the landlord was happily taking money from the elderly tenant even though the house was sinking! smh.
IKR! If the house is "sinking" into the basement it's just a matter of time before the house collapses. If the whole lot, basement and house, is sinking then the neighbors need to start complaining to be city. One good heavy downpour and it can start a sinkhole. Not only the landlord but also the city can be liable for that. Can you imagine watching the hole getting bigger and approaching your home! That's scay.
@@chanmi1957 I don't understand how the city allows the sidewalks and street gutters/drains to become overgrown to that degree.
I kinda wonder how many slumlords Spencer has inadvertently helped avoid additional fines by helping out the neighborhoods with his work. It's clear that the positives of his work far outweigh the negatives, but having dealt with terrible landlords in the past I would like to see some of them reap what they sow.
Regardless, keep up the great work SB!
Landlords and owners are like the government: they don’t mind taking money, but they hate spending it.
Seems like the local government should maintain the sidewalks better
Ahhh my favorite lawn person to watch 😊❤
Spencer’s my favorite also
If I owned a yard there, I would hire you just because you do the free stuff for others. You have a good heart. The laborer is worthy of his hire.
Wow! Saving the neighborhood one house at a time.
One word...SAFE!!! 🙏💞
2:29 Your exit from the scene is very original. Hug from Brazil.
I’m sure the neighbors are happy about the work you’ve done! Looks great!! Your such a hard worker.
He is, isn't he!?!
Well done, Spencer. That is quite the transformation. What caught my eye in the after shots were two big things. First, the electrical service is still connected in this house. The meter is still there. Second, the walls appear to be in pretty good shape and the roof ridge appears to be true and level. That tells me the footings and foundations under the walls are likely quite serviceable. Growing up where basements are virtually universal, hearing what was said about the structure, it is easy to figure out both what is wrong and how to fix it. It is not a big deal. There will be a beam running down the middle of the length of the house. Chances are it is either undersized or not supported properly. In either case it is not complicated. The owner needs to dig holes for footings then jack the beam back up where it belongs, then install Lally columns to support it. With the help of a few friends it is the work of a couple of weekends and would cost well under $1,000. Considerably less than tearing down that house, never mind building a new one. He is letting money rot by leaving the house in that state. It could be a really lovely little home with some TLC.

If you don’t do the “SB MOWING OUT” Every single time are you truly a fan of his work…me I do the fist move every single time 💪🏾
I think it's cute how he does that, I laugh every time
LOL ME TO TOO 😂😂😂😂 ITS SO FUNNY , THAT IS HIS & OBVIOUSLY OUR SIGNATURE MOVE IN THE END I JUST LAUGH ALOUD ITS SO FUNNY.
SB Mowing……… geek shoes 💪👍
Perfect emoji for this. We all know what that means when it comes to Spencer 👍😄
And I saw the caps and now forget what I was even going to comment 😅
I commented months and months ago that the drainage was such an important part of the improvement of the property in addition to pest control and how the property looks. I’m so glad you have been consistently mentioning the drainage improvement. Poor drainage is a safety issue for walkers, drivers, and bike riders and poor drainage can cause flooding into people’s house foundations, garages, gardens, etc. causing a lot of damage. Thank you for continuing to educate people.
Your videos are part of my therapy. I am a woman that loves doing lawn work. Because of a spine issue I can't do as much so I watch you. Great work!
Me too ! Lawn work was my outlet - 😊
Amazing cleanup!! Neighbors must be so appreciative!!🙏❤️
Hi Spencer! Once again you are saving a house 🏠 and a yard from drowning "the lifeguard of lawns!" Literally. Thanks from all of your followers! 🌿
This comment is so sweet 🥹
@@catalinacastaneda868 Right? It’s so wholesome. 🥰
What a service to the entire neighborhood!
Have a happy new year Mr. & Mrs. SB Mowing! Keep spreading the love! 💚🍀💚
Another well done transformation! Looks like the corner lot across the street is the next one in this neighborhood? 😊
Looks great! I'm sure the neighborhood breathed a collective sigh of relief! Happy New Year!!😊
You’re doing amazing work for people. I always love watching your videos!
What an amazing difference!! I love it when the fence line overgrowth is all cleaned up like it should be!! Happy New Year to you and your wife!!
Love your neon signs! Another great cleanup. It’s nice to watch these videos because it’s nice warm weather. 😂
Google maps show this house from 2007 to 2022. Over that time, it's changed quite a bit. The roof was fixed at some point, siding was added, etc. At one point (maybe 2015?) it was boarded up. Then it wasn't, now it is again. It looks like the house might have been owned by different people over that 16 year period, and some were motivated to maintain it, while others weren't. Maybe the last owner fell on hard times and couldn't keep up with repairs? A sinking foundation is pretty expensive to fix. There's a rent assisted 55+ apt complex right across the street...I wonder if the elderly tenant was able to find a place there?
That’s a long sentence
*TOO BAD I AINT READIN AL DAT*
@@90z. Judging by your grammar, spelling and punctuation skills, English is clearly challenging for you, so I fully understand. God bless.
THAT was a mess to clean up! THANKS 👏👏👏💐✌️🫶🤗 YOU are DEFINITELY a BLESSING! ❤
This was such a windy day! Awesome work.
How does your back not hurt from all that shoveling?
I love these videos. All of the hidden concrete is amazing.
Thank you Spencer for your time to do these yards that are eye sores to the neighborhood's. You and your co- workers do an awesome job on them. May God bless you and your workers with Good Health, his Love, Grace, and Blessings ☺️💖😇🙏
Hi Spencer, would love to have you tell us what town you are in when you improve the neighborhood lawn. God Bless you and Mrs. SB.

WOW!!! So much better! You're such a good worker.

Your the man Spencer - that was a bad one. Neighbors in your area must love you and I've noticed that some of the people you speak with about the abandoned homes ask if you are the guy on You Tube. You will soon be featured in People magazine. Thanks for what you do Spencer!!! Looked like there was another corner home across the street that needs some care.
Another great job, thanks for sharing, Spencer. Have a safe and Happy New Year's 🎉😊
As usual, you saved another corner lot. that makes the whole neighbourhood look good and I’m glad you mentioned drainage👍🏼🥰
Have a Happy New Year Spencer🎉. Georgetown Texas
Another awesome yard clean-up!! You made their neighborhood looking good!🙂❤️✌️🫶
Another truly amazing cleanup Spencer! ❤
Хорошая работа!!Приятно видеть,что вы уважаете своих клиентов!
Happy, Healthy & Prosperous New Year to you and yours.🎉🎉🎉🥰
Hi Spencer and the Misses! Since the slumlord won't fix the interior, he sure would not do the exterior! Great job, and I am sure the neighbors are greatful!
Spenser: nice work going into the new year… happy , healthy, bright new year! Carol from California
Have a happy, healthy and prosperous new year Mr. and Mrs. SB Mowing!
FYI when you put fresh cut grass in the street it is like ice to a motorcycle
It never ceases to amaze me what an awesome job you're doing for those communities! I hope you and the wife had a wonderful Christmas and have a very happy New Year!
Major improvement, Spencer!!!
Happy New Year to you and your wife!!! 😊
I am always surprised people aren't more thankful for the incredible work you do. I hope you know you are appreciated for that work by so many people you will never meet.
Another SB Moving job; excellent as usual. Season's Greetings to you & the Mrs. and families.
Its so surprising that when you show the before and after pictures how it makes the whole area/street look so improved and clean
Awesome job Spencer! Certainly makes the community look way better. It’s a shame that the house is in disrepair.
Walkers are probably thrilled that they can walk safely. What a difference this one made. Makes me sad that there are so many abandoned homes. Hope you had a very merry Christmas and that 2024 will be Healthy and prosperous. See you next year😊
The edging gives the properties such a finished look but I honestly love the trimming segments the most! Good job Spencer. Wishing you and Mrs SB a happy New Year!
Spencer you do such an amazing job on these lawns. I love how you make these neighbors so happy.
Holy cow that sidewalk was so overgrown! I loved that little serpentine section by the corner that made a slight S curve. This looks SO much better, I am sure the neighbors are very grateful to have the sidewalk usable again! Great job, as always, Spencer, hope you had a great Christmas and will have a Happy New Year. I look forward to watching your amazing transformation videos next year too!
Hi Spencer, 😊 Wow the yards look Marvelous...Great Job!! 💯
Even the Neighbor across the street has high grass, so now this house looks Very Clean!!
The Neighborhood will be very Pleased!! Happy New Year, 🎆Spencer & Andrea & have a Wonderful Weekend!!❤
Love Barb from Central illinois❣
You’re so good for these neighborhoods. Thank you Spencer!😊
You are the absolute best at trimming and edging. Thank you for cleaning up that eyesore and making the sidewalk safe for everyone.
It feels good to see someone make something nice, instead of tearing the world down. Definitely worthy of a first-class Attaboy!
Wow, what a difference. You probably made the whole neighborhood so happy with this clean up. Happy New Year. May 2024 brings you 1 million more followers.
Thank you for making this sad home look a little happier for the neighborhood! You are a blessing to your community! Love watching your videos Spencer! ❤️🫶🏼🙏🏻
Hi Spencer, what an incredible job you did with this property! You added so much beauty back into the neighborhood with ur transformation! You have a great soul! Bless you!
I have always wondered what the owners reaction would be after they saw their home was cared for by someone without paying for it.
You even made that sad, sinking house look better! I wonder if it has been legally condemned.
The yard looks very nice even though the house is about to fall down Spencer you always make everything look so much nicer 😊
Great job as usual it made the neighborhood look so much better. God blesd you.
Another fantastic transformation and cleanup! Happy New Year to you Spencer and Mrs SB 🎉.
It never ceases to amaze me how stark the transformations are. Great job!
That property cleaned up rather nicely you did an amazing job on this one,keep it up.I love all your different content.😊
I see how nature and lush has its ways of distorting buildings and certain areas. it's interesting to see the transformations of once cared for houses being somewhat restored.
Incredible job, looks a million times better. I know the neighbors are grateful
Keep doing what you do
It was great to see you with Kevin and his family on that beautiful house painting transformation. You do great work. Thank you.
Holy buckets what a transformation!!! Great job!!
Good job Spencer, thanks for sharing brother! Kirk from Louisiana sending prayers and positive energy to you and your family! Stay safe, warm and healthy throughout this winter season! 🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👌🏻👍🏻👍🏻🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸
Spencer, the yard, curbs and sidewalks look amazing now! The house may be boarded up but the lawn sticks out like a 'healed" thumb now! Hope you and the Mrs. have a very prosperous New Year!
Thank you so much for cleaning up the sidewalks and curb/gutter areas. I'm sure the neighbors appreciate the yard being cleaned up.
Really an amazing job. Looks like the entire neighborhood could gain some inspiration. Hope you and the Ms. have a very happy New Year.
I hope the city/town appreciates what you do for them. You are doing their work, their responsibility...
Awesome amazing transformation Spencer brother as always. Hope ur Christmas celebration went well. God bless you and your family. In advance a very happy new year and happy holidays 😊 ✨️
Another Friday morning and another corner lot with lots of hard labor involved. Spencer must have a thing for corner lots!
Great work man...God bless your soul brother...
Very nice work, and happy New Year!
Good Morning Spencer Happy Friday. Have a Prosperous New Year. Be Blessed 🙏🏽❤
Another fantastic corner lot makeover, Spencer! It's a lot of extra work but the end results are amazing...great job and a Happy New Year to you and yours!!
Hello SB Mowing my name is Mike Chaisson and I'm messaging you all the way from Prince Edward Island,Canada! I've been watching you on UA-cam for a couple of weeks now and just Subscribed to ur channel just now! I have to tell u Spencer that ur transformations are absolutely resurrecting!
So very nice that you do this for the people in the neighborhood and that you are bringing awareness to mental health. All goodness Spencer. Thank you, God bless and Happy New Year!
Hi Spencer, what a superb improvement all round, at least the grass on the edges came off pretty easily, it definitely looks more loved now, and not such a target with homeless people. Well done Spencer, the neighbours should be well happy now. Thank you, Happy new year to you and your family. ❤️❤️❤️🫠🫠🫠
