Love watching you guys!! I just landed a job at almost $1900 for a cleanup with weed barrier and new mulch , It's super exciting to spend a few hours working up a bid sending it out to the customer and getting a deposit on the job! First time I ever bid a job at $65 per labor hour. It was kinda nerve racking but thank God I got it!! Thanks guys you are and inspiration.
Keep mulching!
Keep weeding!
Keep making money boys!
Word of advice from a 27 year veteran of the lawn and landscape industry, never put weed barrier fabric under mulch. Mulch breaks down which adds nutrients to the soil and weeds will grown on top of the fabric rendering it useless. Good Luck on your project.
Congratulations brother! You got this. 💪🏼
@@brianladehoff6381 I've had that problem with older landscaping plastic but not newer woven fabric as the water and small particles flow through that fabric instead of getting trapped on top and I like to remove the old mulch every so often as it breaks down and becomes less visually appealing.
Weeds and weed roots WILL eventually grow through the fabric! Been landscaping for 35 years!
Definitely Should help folks out that can't afford or are to old to do the job. 2 free yards a month. That's just cutting grass, weeds, pruning tree branches hanging, weed eating. Very Simple work.
Great job. I had a neighbor call the police on my for removing my overgrown bushes because it wrecked her privacy. I told her to plant her own bushes. Kept calling the police on me for years. Yep Marilyn living by you was an experience!
She needs to get a life
@@joe1071 hell yea she was probably just bored and wanted to start something
@@SpaceAgeGenesis I had an overgrown pine tree too close to a corner of a house I just purchased. When the neighbor caught wind I was taking her down, they expressed their disapproval because it provided shade to their house and they believed lowered their AC bills. They were also good, reasonable people and understood that I was taking the tree down because it was inappropriately planted to close to my house and posed a foundational threat. We became good friends
I brought a house because of the trees edging my yard in my neighborhood. The neighbor had the utility company cut them down cause she couldn't see into MY backyard...I was too angry...
I had that happen to myself when I had my property surveyed found out 3 feet of her property didn't belong to her, man they where mad took me three years to find out on top of that she was trying steel two feet more on top of that
So nice to see a husband and wife working together. Beautiful job.
Pulling up the trimmed grass looked like it got heavy fast. Looks so very nice! 👍👍👍👍👍
Teamwork makes the dream work. My hubby was once a team player. Not so much anymore
This is why I live with 40 acres around me absolutely packed with trees. No nosey arse neighbors to give me problems.
They barely said anything if you actually watch the video.
@@Spankmepink The "confrontation" was absolutely tame in the vid. But I mean as a general thing. I used to live in an HOA and those POSs were CONSTANTLY up your arse about every. Little. Thing. There was a guy who got fined every day until he pulled up his flowers because "they were not an approved color".
As a Registered Nurse working in the ER for many years, I tried to refrain I commenting about body mechanics. Unfortunately just couldn’t help myself, you both look young and healthy and Lord willing I hope you always stay that way. I noticed both of y’all bending over at the waist instead of squatting to save your backs. I have had major back issues for years and I just wanted to give you a tip to keep y’all from ending up in an ER because of back problems. I marvel at the work you do, you do great work and hard work which nowadays you can’t find anyone to do that.
It becomes a sore back vs a sore leg situation.
@@mozelac facts. Can’t really win. Stretching every morning does help tho
Imagine trying to hold a chainsaw, trim a bush, and squat at the same time. You save your back but loose a knee cap in the process.
Mom got diagnosed with pre diabetes over 10 years ago and really worked on taking free classes and things and switched the whole family over without us really noticing to the healthy and recommended DASH diet and cut out most of the red meats. It probably made us healthier in some ways but it didn't do a thing to help us lose weight. I think DASH is about how you eat rather than how much you eat. The other day we had a stranger introduce themselves as a nurse out of the blue and wanted to talk to us about our diet. It was a really bad experience and she made one after the other false assumptions about how to look like we do, we must down gallons of full calorie soda pop, fried foods, and ice cream daily but that couldn't be further from the truth. It was pretty insulting.
That is such a lazy boomer stereotype.
I love watching anyone mulch and you two are a sight for sore eyes, love the teamwork, and best of all love how you guess-ta-mated the neighbors lawn needs. If he wants professional service he we pay...but ,,, if he wants the kids in the neighborhood then he'll get what he gets...So glad you'all are back to what you REALLY love --LAWN MAINT--!!!
My back was on fire just watching you lift that cut sod. 🔥
I used to cut the lawn for an elderly neighbor. I would do it in the evenings after work and she would come out and talk to me till the sun went down, so sometimes it took me two evenings to finish. We humans love to talk.
just a tip from utility locator, when using that edge cutter, before you should call miss utilities out there, Fiber optics subs like to only burried service lines to the house most commonly around 6 to 8 inches if lucky, i have seen them as shallow as 2 inches sometimes
Wow if you two never had nerve pain problems before, I bet you do now! I was a housekeeper for years in hotels, a nursing home, and a hospital. I myself, have nerve problems that require therapy exercises, and medicine. You two are such hard working individuals, and deserve great pay. That yard was a beautiful transformation! Great job you two.
Thank you for doing this video. You inspire me to get after my lawn, I just didn’t know where to begin. Leaf blowing then hedge trimming then mowing, . ❤❤ So awesome!
I reshaped a flower bed years ago. I didn't have big machine like you have but I used my sawsall to cut the dirt back. Same concept.
With the hail you should be looking at the radar and stuff. Hail proceeds tornadoes. With hail it means that there are updrafts going on in the atmosphere. I am not only a landscaper I am also a trained storm/tornado spotter.
I love watching the way that you two take the time to get it right and looking good
Handled the neighbor well except you were both trying to talk over a running engine.
Whenever approaching anyone to talk its just good manners to eliminate unnecessary noises. It can make discussion much easier for the elderly and scores brownie points for the effort.
Nice lawn
Agree, but suspect the camera positioning accentuated the engine noise for us vs interfering with the conversation.
For mulch jobs like this you could also use a small landscape rake with the flat level on the back I recommend the fiber glass one.
6:24 I like how he brushes his hand all over the bush. It's like what barbers do after giving a new haircut.
That was a very beautiful job y’all did. Man that hail was some serious stuff. Your all’s work needs to be in magazines without a doubt. The work you guys do is second to none. Y’all keep up the great work!!!
Glad I can do all of this myself. Instead of paying a ridiculous amount for this type of work.
i was gonna say the same thing..when he was giving the estimate, i was expecting at most $400-$600 because of cost of mulch, disposal fees, gas for tools, labor, etc..but not a couple grand..lmao
@@mo2fifty937 it's not that bad to be honest. If you consider fuel cost, equipment maintenance, insurance cost, labor and there has to be some profit. $65/man hour is a good rate plus materials. $2k is just about right. I would have picked up the leaves for them though.
@@zachdemand4508 really?..i guess i was just assuming prices based on ppl i know who do that out by my town..lol..but good for them for sticking to what theyre worth..their work looks good too
Bet you dont have all that nice equipment.
Love the add on wheel barrel made a steel platform on my mower so I can put 10 to 12 bags on mine. I used plastic concrete tubs to haul stone . Works but its pretty sketch. Looks like it's hydraulic? Pretty awesome! Truly a force multiplier.
me and my wife deliver mulch on our dump trailer and use my sub compact tractor for customers who want it placed in the flower beds for an extra fee of course. We only work when we want to and only do it as a hobby but it is fun to meet people.
That little dump/mower looks absolutely handy
Wonderful plunge into lawn care once again! I love watching you use all the tools and machines to achieve that professional look! The end result is beautiful and well worth whatever the cost. So happy it's almost time to run the mowers once again....will you be able to cut that lush grass in 1 stop, I wonder? Praying for rain here in Nebraska!
Nice to see you guys doing yard work and not snow plowing..spring is finally here👍
Love that flowerbed shaper. Never seen that before but will be looking for one, once our snow melts. ;) Great job you two. Flowerbeds look amazing.
The best tool to spread mulch is definitely a pitch fork the same way you use the back of your rake.
For sure. Get way more coverage out of each wheel barrow
Shawn and TQ you did a wonderful job with that mulch. It looks really good.
I'm so envious of all that rain you guys been getting.
A pitch fork works really well for lifting the sod from the edges. Just pick up and let it break off.
Y'all did a great job! I didn't want the video to end I hope y'all have more beds to do on camera. God bless the Spencer's!!!
Wow! I am so impressed with the work you kids put in for a really custom finish!
Just a suggestion. Why not put all those leaves onto the garden beds then put the other mulch on top. Be great compost for the plants.
Love that new edge cutter. Makes a great edge.
Wow. I was doing this type of work as a park aide making $9.26/hr to start and we were doing most of the hauling of debris by shovel and wheel barrow. Had no idea how lucrative this line of work was. I've been doing lawn care since I was probably 12, so upwards of 20 years now, but have been out of parks for about 5 years. Really enjoyed the tough, rough jobs where you can really see the transformation. Been watching a lot of lawn care channels over the past 2 years and it's really pushing me to want to start a small landscaping business but I think the prices I have in my head are like a friends and family discount pricing now. Any tips on where to start with pricing? And do you guys haul all the debris off for reclaim or are you able to dump it on your own property?
wait for it. park aide in the late 90's like 6 bucks an hour?
@@snapninja3454 This was in 2008. Fed minimum wage was $8.07, so it was better than most entry level jobs at the time.
@@Chrislk1986 the federal minimum wage is still $7.25hr so maybe u mean your state’s minimum wage
You should check out what local companies charge and find a number in that ballpark that covers your costs, expenses and time….if it’s not profitable it’s not worth it… you also need to factor the wear and tear on your equipment which will be a huge initial investment.
@@gringa978 Yeah, meant to say "Fed was $6.55, State was $8.07".
When I had a yard and was actually able to do this that was my favorite tool never knew the actual name
Hey guys! I'm a subscriber. That neighbor is a friend of my husband'. I can almost guarantee he won't go for your estimate. He's way too cheap.lol 😆
Way too smart
Another one! I hate when the weather doesn’t cooperate! That bed cutter is awesome. You guys did a great job in-spite of the hail-storm.
Who do so many people criticise their work and put up unnecessary opinions on how they should do their job? Nice video.
Wow $2000 just for the front that is amazing. So much more expensive than I would imagine I live in Phoenix so we don’t have all that kind of edging in my front yard I have desert landscaping in the backyard I do have grass but nothing that a simple weed eater can’t handle.
I too live in Phoenix. I was thinking $400 to $600 when I heard 2k I was dumbfounded. You could hire 6 day laborers using hand tools and they would knock in out in a couple hours and still save 1k
I just got done today installing 22 yards of mulch by myself and let me tell you it was not fun at times! (The rain in NE Ohio here really slowed me down too)
mulching alone sucks with out help lol wich why im looking at a new $5,898 14.5hp dr multi sidewalk machine and i was checking out a new 24.5hp kubota scl 1000 mini track loader wich id would like to have for the landscaping jobs
I recently bought a used Bedscaper from Home Depot Tool Rental and the mulch beds look so much better and its really fast. Nice job Spencers!
Nothing like trying to beat the clock!!! You two did a bang up job, the yard looks great!!
I realize those blowers and small engines are a vital part of your job. However, as a night worker/day sleeper, I HATE THEM!
With the upcoming storm coming puts a damper on things to get everything done in a day. Putting more pressure on you two laying the mulch down in the beds. New tool saves you time for cutting the edges in.
Thanks for sharing your works. Great jobs! Now I am able to try an easy ways to landscaping.
Also a pitch fork works so great getting the mulch out of the wheel barrow as it is to get in it.
My husband and I have worked together in our lawn and landscaping company for over 25 years cutting 25 to 30 yards a week and landscaping it is really hard work but very satisfying
We have a Huluho too. thanks to Shawn mentioning on of you many videos. It is a life saver! Thanks Shawn!!
You can buy those so called weeds at most garden centers edible ground cover
What a world of different you and tq make out of the beds,nice job! love black mulch. Rock it out Spencer's .
Shovel is much easier and you can spruce it up nice and straight with the trimmer. That’s a lot of work
So Satisfying to watch them leaves getting blown away with that blower
Sheesh!! 2K for that front lawn? This is why I do my own lawn work. Maybe the edging doesn't look as sharp as the lawn you did in this video, but I still have the best-looking yard on the street.
You may have talked about this in another video, but this is the first one I've watched. When you cut in the edges on the garden beds and pull the extra sod, what do you do with it? You take it and throw it in the Brute or mulch force, but do you compost that for other jobs?
I didn't find the neighbor unpleasant. He just asked for an approximate time frame until you finish the job. You do a great job, but one hour for collecting the branches, common, please!
Also asked for a quote which feels strange to me. Didn't seem at all unpleasant even by my countries standard where it's very unusual to approach people when doing this stuff
Okay, Karen.
@@GamerNerdess So now everyone who has their own opinion and dares to express it is a Karen? Lol!
@@katarinas3361 her channel description sums it up lmao
@@JustSamwell-_-
The PfP does too.
Looks like your average Day Bar Hopper.
The company I work for has that exact same Toro dump,mower, snowplow. Super machine with all three attachments
Wow! I found a hulaho in our garage but never knew what it was or how to use it. Thanks!
Great job you work so hard what a good team you make. It is strange to see open back gardens. Here in the UK gardens are fenced off from neighbours.
Australia here. I couldn't live in a yard like that. Just seems like acres of lawn....where's the actual garden? Not to mention the lack of privacy!!
When I visited a friend in Michigan, it was a similar thing there. When there was a fence it was a 4' chain link you could see thru.
It actually depends on the neighborhood, too. Some HOA say no fence while others demand a well maintained 6 foot tall wooden privacy fence... It's a personal choice thing...
@@tamaracalderon3184 interesting to know, thanks for the info.
Yes, these open lawn gardens are aweful. Americans don't seem to like flowers or cottage gardens or flowering shrubs. What enjoyment or beauty is there in these green bare gardens? Also, the pollinators have nothing to feed on. Have as many messy but pretty perennial plants as possible I say.
That sod weighs a ton. You guy's are a couple of perfectionists.
Nice job guys.
Looks great nothing like refreshing your yard.
You two are a Great team! Well done!
We always spread Preen under the mulch areas before we mulch to help cut down on the weed growth. Enjoy watching from Michigan.
Both of you guys work good together. Both of you are hard workers. My wife can’t do what you do. I would hire you guys any time.
Nobody could pay me enough to do that job!! God Bless You!!!
The original Hula-Ho was made it Kingsburg California, a small town in the Central Valley just south of Fresno. Good tool
Its like you are the grass getting fert spread on you with all that hail! :)
Landscaping is hard work! But well worth it! Looks great!
It's nice to see , they use for gardening also still hand tools called wheelbarrow , shovel , rake , weed rake ( hulaho ) as we do in Europe , great ! For the earmuffs we have a funny expession " Micky Mouse " because it looks like this , good job , have a nice day and keep earning money !
Wow, the yard looks fantastic great job!
xoxo's Sandie
what I hate about mulch is how much work it is, it looks good for a year, and then weeds and trees start growing in it, next thing you know you're buying and spreading another couple yards of it, as the elevation of your yard keeps creeping ever upwards.
That's why you always remove the old mulch when putting new down.
@@MrPicklecopter Too much work for me. Part of why I live in an apartment now.
Hey y’all, hope y’all are doing well. You two did a great job. Love and prayers💜
That cutting edge makes the job so much easy
That property looks 1000% better! Terrific job! Hope you have a wonderful weekend! Stay safe and stay healthy!
Another good tip....don't dump black mulch on a white fence.............
I use to live by an elementary school. Crews would showup at 430.
Calling immigration on the bastards got two of them deported, the other got new crew and got dogs released on him. Neighbors started playing loud rock and roll during school hours, school quickly learned there was no noise ordinance and fired landscaper , hired new company that does it on Fridays when there is no school. 4 day school week.
So beautiful, wish we had someone like you in Fostoria, OH
I always let my grass patch fend for itself. If nature doesn't water it then that is too bad. It always comes back in the fall after a natural summer dormancy.
Cant wait to see that place finished and nicely cut and striped up !!!
The dumper on the mower is cool only thing id be concerned with is all the weight on the front wheels Beautiful work by the end of the job never seen a edge cutter like that before
Wish you were working my backyard. Such hard work, thanks for the tips too. Great job.
The bucket attachment is real nice. 😳
yes u got it down..... always manhandle ur bush after a good trim.. lol love the content... and u found a good hay fork for the mulch yeeeees. that was my suggestion last season for the leaf box setup i think wwoooooooo hooooooooo love it
need to get you some two-wheeled wheel burrows. makes the job 10x easier
Looks like back breaking hard work. You guys do a great job. You work really well together.
Nice job. Expensive black much, them people gots money in Ohio. Couple of things. Glad the neighbor wanted bigger beds, I never add any new space to a bed because it's a longer weed eat and consumes more mulch. I also use a spade and put a 30%ish angle cut on the edge so when the mulch is thrown and smoothed and you pack the edges it makes a nice little v trough for the rain water to collect as it runs off. And to pack the edges I use an aluminum rock rake, 3 feet is quicker than a 1 foot yard rake. I was happy to see you let people know to use the backside of a leaf rake for smoothing, I see so many beds with clumps and piles just all through them. I also never use a shovel in a wheelbarrow otherwise you have to rake the mulch onto it with your arm like in the video. A wide short handle pitch works way better to get behind and around shrubbery. I only use the shovel to push mulch into a wheelbarrow once it is low enough to get behind and do it. haha and that was sleet not hail, where I come from it's not hail until you have to called the insurance company.😶
Just some thoughts and again great video maybe something said will help you and maybe not but it was free. 🙂 Oh and my neck of the woods is N.C.
I like that border cutter. Never seen one before . COOL
The job looks very nice guys - great job !!!
Fun to watch yall do such a nice job .the yard you did looks so sharp .great line around the whole front and side.
The one beside it will look amazing with all those beds too.
Great work and its such satisfying work. You immediately see improvement every step of the way and just keeps getting better till your done. Can't imagine a homeowner not being happy with yalls work.
Just subscribed.
I love doing that kind of work but never done it as a business or job just usually for family and friends .
Thanks for sharing 👍
Awesome work and looks great. I am a disabled Army Veteran about an hour south of you. I was wondering if we could sync up about resources and how far your service area is. Feel free to look me up on Facebook if you have time. Take care and keep up the great work and the informative videos.
You all did a great job for the home owners
Yup - "Sod is no joke, it's heavy!"
Nice job! I love that rich dark dirt. We have so much red clay soil where I live.
Hard to do yard work when it is real sunny.
Hey Buddy you definitly married up.Your wife is a gem !
Hard work and hard ice what a job you guys had. Nice job. God bless.
That turned out so beautiful!
Glad y’all were able to get the job done, before major rain,& hail came. Thank goodness for the tools,& the equipment y’all have. Good start for the new season. Hopefully, y’all snagged yourselves another customer in the process. Stay safe, healthy,& blessed. Have a great evening,& weekend.💯❤️👍🏾😀🙋🏽♀️✝️🙏🏾🇺🇸
looks amazing... looked very professional
Those weeds that were like carpet were actually kinda pretty lol.
It can be hard to find good pitchforks for spreading mulch. I was lucky to find a new looking antique one at a antique store a few years ago.
The way you operate the hedge trimmer you could get a night job as a hair stylist. LOL
Glad your back to yard care, thanks for sharing the adventure.
