She said that I had BITTEN off more than I can CHEW - Was She RIGHT?

- When she asked me if I had bitten off more than I can chew, my answer was - if I can lift it, I can fix it! And so begins this massive clean up job that took me around 14 hours to complete, with 2 trips to the landfill. I was actually driving around looking for a terrible (or good, depending on your perspective) yard to transform, as I really needed a challenge and some good content for my viewers. As you can see, I found it on this property. This is part 2 of 2.
Part 01: • You won't BELIEVE this...

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. 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 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.

🎉😂❤
Love that you get to the bare bones,,,
That you do a small section at a time
Camera angles are that we the viewer can see exactly what you are cutting
That you deal with the junk (would have been nice if this customer could have let go more of their junk)
Your attention to detail
Well done George
Respect to the man that takes all the clippings and trash offsite
Amazing job, George! I like that you not only cut grass and trim trees, but also do a full cleaning and repair broken things. Special thanks for the comments in the video. You are still the best lawn master on RUclips!
Watching you bring order out of chaos is always a pleasure. This mother is going to have a safe haven for her children. You nibbled that yard into submission!!! This episode should be used as a tutorial of beginners on how to get the job done the right way. Your work makes me cry.
One of your best George! There is a lot going on in that yard. Playground, farm, patio, sports arena etc.. and you managed to tame it all! Even leveled out the brick pile 😄👍
I know - left a flat surface - fatal!!
Heres hoping the home owner goes thru the "rubbish" and gets rid of a lot of it and doesn't let it get that bad again. Well done, George..😊
There were a lot of surprises underneath all that grass and soil....hard surfaces , trash, and things! That concrete chair was pretty amazing! Awesome job as usual. You are the most precise and complete in your work on RUclips! What a makeover! 👏🏻- watching from Lake Wales, Florida
No job is too much for you !! You definitely do precision work, I love the way you do sections at a time, so as we can see the transformation as it happens as well as the before and after pictures. Thank you George ❤️👏🏼👏🏼she has a wonderful yard/garden area. and now you made it safe for the kids to play.
I like your attitude, George. No judgment; you just clean up the property! I had no idea that there was a brick patio in the backyard. Tremendous improvement! By the way, I think your lawnmower is just the right size for the properties you transform.
This is a beautiful home and garden. It is too bad that this person has not taken the time to appreciate and enjoy it fully. Hopefully, now, she and her children will get outside more in a safer environment; relaxing and soaking up some of that warm sunshine and fresh air together. God bless you for giving this family another chance to organize, get rid of unnecessary things and to start over.
Eu não acredito que mora alguém aí nessa sujeira
Снова всё загадят
I have to wonder how there's no even a path worn from going to take care of the chickens or playground stuff. Good job as always. Thanks.
I'm speechless, one word ? WOW ! Sir, you met your challenge easily. I watched these 2 challenge videos and enjoyed every moment. It was fun but a lot of work for you. I thank you, you stand out because you are unique in your field. I never missed a video and it always a pleasure each time to see you.
You've done it again Mr. George!!! Made a "silk purse out'a sow's ear"! That yard wasn't fit for farm animals little on children. Really enjoyed watching the transformation. Who knows you may be back in a year to clean it up again! Awesome job! 🎉 Oh, those chickens love the bugs from the freshly mowed yard!
Oh boy! So glad to watch you again, MG (a.k.a. Mighty George)! And you're right! You got it all: unbelievably super satisfying transformation and clean up with "mowerless" ride, precision power/skill and awesome quality of work! 😊😊😊
Hahahahaha! "Short attention spans" ... definitely not me! I'd watch your videos no matter how long they were. Actually laughed out loud and clapped when you evened out the brick pile ... because that's exactly the sort of thing I tend to do. Keep it up! And thanks again, George, for another wonderful addition to my Saturday mornings. You are so appreciated ...
hahaha, nice 🥰
Beautiful job George, you are precision in motion , so relaxing and satisfying, waiting on bated breath for the next one!
You totally reclaimed that backyard for her. That was a huge job and when you finished, it really showed the potential of being a nice backyard again.
Acompanho vários canais da categoria, e posso dizer que esse foi um dos melhores e maiores transformações que assisti. Realmente é impressionante como ficou bonito e funcional esse quintal. Entendo que existe vários fatores e motivos que fazem quintais serem tomados pelo abandono mesmo que habitado. Vc foi muito persistente, caprichoso, corajoso e muito generoso em fazer este trabalho! Meus sinceros parabéns e meu grande respeito e admiração por vc! Espero, de coração, que os moradores valorizem seu árduo trabalho e mantenham este lugar organizado e limpo, mesmo que tenham dificuldades. Tenho certeza que as galinhas tb agradecem!! 😊👏👏👏🏆
Saudações do Brasil 🇧🇷
Classy work there, George 👌🏻. And, I would never have guessed what was lying underneath that growth.
WOW George, gorgeous result. I'll bet the home owner is delighted and can't believe her luck. It is a lovely garden. Stay well : )
New name.....
Indiana 'George' Jones - Finder of the Lost Paths & Patios!
That was an epic transformation! I love how meticulous you are in your transformations and the little touches of fixing things and even restacking those bricks, really does make such a huge difference! Thank you for helping this homeowner! 🎉
hahaha 😉🙋♂️
Defense of your push mower was heart-warming and accurate! The detritus of life with small ones can add up in the blink of an eye. Transformation, George, could be your mantra! Good on you, mate. Really enjoyed this one. Looking forward to next ones. Almost magical!!🎉🎉🎉🎉😊
I like this channel because he is using push mower. I used to watch "clean the city" but when AP is working with AL (ride on mower) I never watch those videos. It is too professional, not entertaining at all!
@@tetve when the job is as huge/difficult as some of theirs are a riding mower is practical, time-saving and relieves body fatigue.
Great work as always George! She must have been ecstatic. Do the customers let you decide what needs to be done ?
Greetings from California! It’s way past my bed time but sometimes I just like to stay up late, it’s a nice quiet time for me.☺️.. I’ve watched a few of your video’s, and I enjoy very much. I just subscribed! 😁
Thank you, welcome 🙂🙋♂️
Hello from England. What a fabulous job. Hope the garden stays that way.
George I think it’s great that you never pass judgment on the people who’s lawn you are cleaning up. You do excellent work!!
Well said!
She’s not right. George you did awesome. I hope she is grateful. You went beyond what you needed to do. Thank you
He wears a Floppy Hat, Can Jump Over a House, with Such Ease ... and can do what others Could Never do .. So Today, we Crown him 🌟 "Super 🎖 George❕"
Thank you for always sharing what the vegetation/flora is! I like knowing what the shrubs/trees are! Great work!
George!!!! This is your best job!! What a beautiful yard you gave her, my, oh my. I LOVED the results. I'm always grateful when you tell us what trees,plants, etc, are in the yards. Your most delightful video, George. Thank ou so much 😊.
Such a wonderful job on this yard. Great eye for detail, George. See you on the next one
You are the best doing this job!
👏👏George! You really worked hard on this woman’s yard makeover. I just can’t say enough good about your devotion to doing the best job you can do. You are top lawn makeover on RUclips, very best I’ve seen, plus some! It was amazing how many walkways and small patio areas you continued to uncover! Everything was neat and tidy when you finished. She was blessed when you came along. I hope she and her partner will keep it maintained now. The trash you picked up was uncalled for, anyone can put trash in a trash can. If they were able to hold it, they are able to place it where it goes. That’s my opinion. Excellent work! 👏👏
Another great Job! Like the way you take a section at a time till finished. I think this family needs to get rid of some stuff 🤷🏼♀️ just one big clutter mess. Hopefully the kids can go outside to play again! No doubt the Mom is overwhelmed working, taking care of kids, cooking, cleaning and a live in BF with health issues.
Fabulous makeover, George! I love when you uncover hidden, overgrown paths! Such perfect content & very satisfying!❤
Bless you George. You’re an amazing man. You clean up and take care like it’s your own property. Those who you help are really blessed by you. May it come back to you 100 fold.
Wow! What a transformation. I so enjoy watching your videos because you clean absolutely everything, including pulling weeds from flowerbeds and from under shrubs, and even repairing things! You are the best.
This truly does not look like the same property. All I can say about this is, nice! 👍
I can’t believe people let their garden get like this. Even if they’re disabled or elderly, they can get people in to remove rubbish and mow. I think there mostly just bone idle and lazy . Great job
You can't always find someone who will do these things for a reasonable cost!
That is true ❤
I do agree with your opinion about leaving the garden in such a mess
I'm highly disabled but I always try to do my very best- I had chaos and hoarding
But we don't know the story behind this, so please don't judge or call them lazy
Maybe they really struggle mentally and financially
I feel sorry for animals that lazy people have!
Unbelievable transformation! Great job!
Just as satisfying the second time round with no music! I especially enjoyed all the little chatty comments you included in this video. You have some interesting things to say and we like hearing them! 🌿
They’ve got an awesome backyard and great gardening set up I hope she can maintain it and I’m jealous of that lemon tree! I assume she’s got little ones and now they can play! Great job!
Such an amazing transformation. Now her and her kids can enjoy the back yard. I have to say, those are some pretty calm chickens with all that noise around them.
I had the same thought about the chooks!
Same! 😂
Amazing transformation! With such a neglected yard, one wonders if the chickens are being cared for properly. Thank you for tossing them some grass!
É muito relacho deixar um quintal ficar nesse estado
@@ciriaghisi9876 Sim
Bravo!!! Always very interesting what you do find under all the grass!
Thanks for another great video! I love watching your work, and you take such good care of the trees. I think that box might have once been for composting. I sure hope the owner takes better care of the chickens than the yard. But I know how quick these things can get away from you. I'm so glad you could help them out! They must be thrilled with the transformation, and I hope they can go back to growing vegetables and fruit.
Being that I’m from California, that colorful chair against the fence looks like an Indian design. A Native American Indian pattern I see a lot in the Western states. Looks like light turquoise and terracotta colors. I’m sure it’s not a pattern you see much from where you live. 😁
The transformation was amazing! Well done George!😊
Thank you for this another very satisfying transformation, George. Kudos!
Excellent job. Let's see how appreciative the recipient was by how well this gift is maintained.
Wow, that's a massive transformation! Great work 👌
What a great final result. I bet you and the homeowner were very happy :)
НЕВЕРОЯТНО ПОТРЯСАЮЩАЯ РАБОТА!!!!!! ДЖОРДЖ ТЫ МОЛОДЕЦ,!!!!!! ❤❤❤❤👍👍👍👍👍🇷🇺
Phew! That was a jumble to sort out! The garden looks loads better and the children will be able to ride their bikes around the patio you found. Always relaxing on a Saturday morning, especially when I’ve had a Covid booster and flu jab! See you next week George! 👋🏻😃
Hay nice one gerge from madmax Melbourne 👍👍🤩🤩🤩🤩🇦🇺🇦🇺👏👏❤️❤️❤️😎🤪
Seu método de limpeza é simplesmente incrível!! Amo seus vídeos!
Pity they couldn’t let the chooks out to help clean up, great job, enjoyed it to the end
Wow! A very nice job. You gave them their yard back.
You did such a great job, surprised that there were no snakes in that garden well done 👍.
I have subscribed to many lawn cleanup videos..and you not only cleaned the yard up you organized and did everything section by section. That was amazing! What a great job I hope the owners appreciate the work that you did because it was above and beyond. Greetings from sunny California
Now all she needs is for someone that does free pressure washing to make it sparkle even more!! Excellent job, well done!
the children will love you for this!!!you always think everything and everybody!!! making repairs when needed. just everything!!!!
Just absolutely fantastic transformation! I feel like I’m watching. Art in progress! You have such a system and you are so thorough! Thank you George for a great video!
Excellent work George! How happy she must be to have a clean slate again!
Mr. George the city/town should hire you because you make such a big difference in the look and the cleaning up of trash !?
WOW!! Unbelievably fantastic transformation!! Incredible!! You are just incredible!! Thank you for sharing your video with me.
I've said before that I ❤ that you use a grass catcher on that push mower. Most U.S. lawn makeover ppl with vids don't, but I believe catchers produce a much better result.
I wish I could give about 10 thumbs up to this comment. I'm afraid you're right about the U.S. mowers ... most have allergies to grass catchers, I guess! For that reason, my top 5 yard restorers are all Aussies, with (of course) George at the top of the heap.
You are unstoppable!!! You cut, prune, clean, you fix everything! Hello from Greece!!!
PARABÉNS! Seu trabalho é fantástico! Um abç do Brasil! 🇧🇷
It looks amazing George!! Job well done!! I enjoy watching your channel so much!!😊
Well done, George. Much better and cleaner. 😀🇦🇺
So the **CHICKENS* ARE LOCKED UP IN THERE? IN THAT TINY ENCLOSURE? THEY DON'T GET TO FREELY ROAM THE BACK YARD?
THAT'S NOT FAIR TO THEM. YOU KNOW THEY EAT ALL THE BUGS IN THE GRASS DON'T YOU? (chicken abuse..fooey) How boring for them. Can't run a little and stretch their little legs...that's THEIR back yard. The owner better grow a heart instead of weeds...and junk menagerie.
**FREE TH' *CHICKENS!!*
These kinds are my FAVORITES of yours! Lots of crap you take away, that only adds to the EPIC makeover! You are a tenacious thing, that's for sure! Not much seems to feel overwhelming to you (maybe that one house that you did days and days of peeling up sod and weeds from the front driveway! 🤣ugh a nightmare indeed but you tackled that too.) These must challenge your brain in some way. Whatever it is, I'm happy you do these...you help others, get a RUclips audience to pitch in, and put up some amazing, entertaining videos! (Who doesn't wanna watch the sexy Aussie tame nature?) I laughed when you said, have you ever seen someone mow paving? Well hell yeah, it makes sense to shorten it quickly, so you can see what you're workin with. Another phenomenal makeover!! Well done. Sendin good vibes from the PNW, 💛🖤💛 Stacy
Yay, the best landscaping video of the week, every week! It satisfies every ground-viewing perfectionist and more.
iTS *A LUCKY homeowner* is who gets to have GEORGE's Services!!
GREAT & SENSITIVE GARDENER.
Que lindo ficou! Parabéns! Espero que o proprietário tenha condições de manter todo esse capricho ❣️
You really did an amazing job on this one. I never thought it would turn out this well. Way too many things to have to clean up and move but you did it so well. Great job.
Um, yikes. This one is a real collection of surprises! She's rough indeed. Chickens... how cute. Isnt rhe owner concerned with SNAKES? Tall grass, debris around... kids toys.... nope, I'd level it down if I were the owner.
Briliant clean up
Another jaw dropper, George! So much work was put into this entire property, and the results are just amazing. So much to look at! My favorite part was the way you stacked the bricks .. so satisfying to see them lined up more symmetrically 😍 (the precision weapon at its finest) and, of course, the chooks 🐓
Hi GEORGE! Yes. You meticulously do your Excellent, Good Deeds.
Love it. And you never leave the cuttings strewn about all over the place... that which drives me up a tree.
We have been watching your channel for months and love it! So satisfying. A few questions:
1. Have to you tracked the number of steps you do on jobs? What’s the record?
2. Would you be open to doing a then and now episode?
3. What do you eat during and after work? Have you got the energy to cook? 😂
George The Gentleman, who goes above and beyond ! Fantastic Job George ! I Love how you break the garden into smaller pieces and stick with it till its done and then move on, I guess You'd get disheartened looking at it as a whole ? Greeting from The Republic of Ireland
Very nice. I hope the children will enjoy their clean yard now. Lovely lemon tree.Wonderful results.❤😊😊😊
This is the sweetest thing ever!. And, WOW, what a transformation. It doesnt even look like the same place. I didnt expect all that pavement to be under there. Beautiful job. A mom working and carrying the household definitely needs help like this. Taking care of not just that but her partner with medical issues as well. Bless her heart and bless yours for giving her such a big boost! Now that this is so manageable, she will hopefully be able to find the time to keep up with it. And, awww, you fixed the trampoline ❤
George, what a fantastic job!
Did you have any idea there was that nice paving under all that?
I really enjoyed watching you find the real yard that was hiding.
Wonderful work and great patience.
Of course, the owner wants to keep most of it. They're not out there having to take care of it. Go figure. I'm sorry, but some people are just flat lazy.🤔 grateful for your hard work 💯
I liked your comment on ride on v push mowers George. And your precision is precisely why I enjoy watching your videos! I love neat and tidy which is how you always leave your yards. Thank you.
Just wow 🤩
What an awesome thorough job!! Great transformation!
The only critique could give is that I like deep, clean, straight edging lines... even if the over growth is cut. Still I like to see the deep, straight, fresh lines of the edging. I see you edge sideways.. what about straight up and down? To make the deep lines..which does keep the grass from growing over it too easily.
I love watching your videos! You get it ALL done beautifully. Complete clean up of all the grass and shrub trimmings! Perfect!
Love your work. I really appreciate seeing you bag all the cut grass and haul it away. The job just doesn't look finished if you leave all the cut grass laying on the lawn.
Wow! What a wild video. You make such a difference in finding the beautiful back yard that is there. You did an amazing job.
The transformation is incredible!!! I love your attention to detail! 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
I find the big sit-down mowers unsuitable for such work. If you have a large flat area that may go, most houses and gardens do not have that. There are small paths and sheds and toys which you have to go around, which works quite easily with a push mower.
It always amazed me when there was a patio under all the grass . No I have never seen anyone mow papers 😅
A magnificent transformation, George.
Sad to see the neglect of the chooks.
I started using the same method you use as work and clean as you go. Carry a bucket along as well. It really makes for easier yard maintenance. Enjoy your channel very much.
Thank you George for all your diligent hard work! Enjoyed from Texas!
Looks amazing. Lots of buried "treasure" in this one. Fantastic job, George.
Not only did you clean the yard you gave them useable space outside. I’m sure the kids will enjoy being able to play with their toys again. God bless you.
Very pleasant to watch. So glad you know your plants and can tell what should be kept instead of razing it all to the ground.
