I love gardening and cleaning up outdoor spaces to make them welcoming! I bring my own tools (leaf blower, rake, weeding tools, and finally a battery powered lawn mower) and I’m happy to pick up pre-ordered items (mulch, plants) from your favorite nursery on request on my way to your place. Unfortunately I don’t have a power washer.

  • Micha G.Dawit was excellent! He’s a great communicator and hard worker!Tree trimming
  • E B.Andrii made our patio look new again by trimming plants, weeding, laying new mulch and power washing our paver patio. He worked hard and was very efficient. He was pleasant to engage with and also communicated thoroughly and often. I highly recommend him! Tree trimming
  • Vanessa W.Mohammad showed up a bit early, but that worked out. He came prepared with his own mower, which I really appreciated. He was flexible and adjusted his workflow on the spot when my weed wacker died unexpectedly — that kind of problem-solving goes a long way. A few areas needed more attention than I anticipated, but that may have been due to my instructions not being specific enough. With clearer direction, I think he'd be a reliable choice for yard work. Thanks again for your help!Tree trimming
