Hope you are all well! Jim’s planning officer has put the date back to 3rd of October.. so fingers crossed. Hope you enjoy today’s video.. episode two coming next week!
Can't wait to see Jim's new episode.. How is Norman? I still think it should all be crazy paved and she can have flower pots everywhere so much easier for her to manage
Just to clarify, I do help my mum Jenny with lots of things, all her washing, dinners when I can. Any appointments that she has or things she needs that she can’t get delivered and love her very much but with a 40 plus hours a week job, being a single parent and keeping a roof over my child’s head. There is never enough hours in the day or even energy left in my body but most of all I cannot thank Ben, his dad and team enough for everything they have done they have truly been amazing. To those people that have left positive and thoughtful comments thank you and to those of you that haven’t I hope life doesn’t throw at you some of the difficulties my family has gone through. If you cannot write something nice as positive please say nothing…. No one knows what other people go through don’t judge what you aren’t part of it I love my mum more than anything ❤
I wouldn’t worry about the comments if I were you. Those ones are the people who use to sit gossiping and judge,Now they have the world to gossip and judge. You have a wonderful Mother :)
To those who leave negative comments "Walk a mile in someone else's shoes" comes to mind, you do amazing working and caring its a bloody hard juggling act, and very tiring, bless you, I can empathise i looked after my dementia dad for 3yrs before he passed away, you and jenny are more than deserving of a helping hand, great job Ben and Dad 😊❤
Seeing all the brambles cut down, only to see the yard next door is overgrown is like a never ending saga! The world’s elderly MUST be protected and treasured!!!! Thank you Team Flawless Cleaning ❤
@kellihull7600 I was thinking the same thing. They could just about work on one yard, then go to the next door yard, then next, & next. One after another. Amazing how we get this bird's eye view. 🐦🐦🐦
The brambles are unbelievable. I get them occasionally, but I'm surrounded by woods near the Smokey Mountains in Tennessee. I've been really motivated to get after them after seeing these yards!
I'm glad I read your comment before posting my thoughts ..i.e. "the drone shot showed a yard next to Jenny's that looks like *it* needs work!" Peggy, Jim, Jenny....all elderly (I'm 83...so I know about being "elderly!).. all needing help. The Flawless Cleaning Team...which I call the Good Warriors...are beautiful souls!!
I’m the 19 year old granddaughter Jenny is talking about 🙈😂. Thank you so much for the time and care you have taken to help my nan. You’re literally angels on earth ❤️.
Hey don't take comments below about "able bodied family members" to heart Charlotte. Good on you for being in Jenny's life. Sitting with her and being there for her is more important than trying to stay on top of her yard, without tools or time. I spent so SO much time with my Grandmother and it was the richest of relationships. Grandparents have so much to offer to us in terms of life experience and wisdom.
@@aliceteasdale2496 Thank you Alice. My nan is my bestfriend and my whole world in a person. Like Ben said in the video the “able bodied family members” did actually try and help but we didn’t have the right tools and we all work full time so it was just too much to deal with. As fast as we were cutting it down it was growing back by the next weekend 😂. Strangers on the internet don’t know the ins and outs of the situation so any negative comments I’ve just ignored. I’ve been reading all the lovely comments to my nan and were very grateful for Ben and co 😁.
What a lovely family you all are. Indeed I agree with you on people harshly judging others but I love that you spend quality time with your Nan. It truly is the best thing. Time is of the essence. Sending virtual hugs to you and all your family.
Frustrates me no end negative comments from people not living your life dont know all details. All anyone in this world can do is their best and what able to do. Just being their for nan chats and company mean the world to her. I know myself firsthand. @@CharlotteBrunton
Ben, your kindess can hardly be described as a "ripple"...it's more of a tsunami! But instead of a trail of destruction, you leave a trail of happiness, joy, and relief!
Fabulous job as always. I can’t believe a contractor charged Jenny $1800.00 Canadian to slap those few tiles on the roof and not even install them properly. That is totally taking advantage of the elderly. Keep up the great work. I love that your Dad does those little jobs like painting the door entry and the window sill. 👏🏻👏🏻
Sadly, while I know a lot of very good tradespeople, there are a lot of scummy contractors out there too. My nan hired people to do some work in her loft a number of years ago, and while they were up there they stole a large suitcase full of my late grandfather's vintage Meccano. She wasn't aware as she couldn't easily track what they were doing up there due to mobility issues. It wasn't until my Dad went up there to check on her hot water tank months later that he found it missing. Some people just see the elderly as an easy mark. It's awful, I can't fathom being like that.
It's horrible to hear when someone gets ripped off, Jenny messaged us can we take a look at the roof as she was worried about the next time it rains.. Colin kindly jumped up there no question asked
I had a "landscaper" come out yesterday, I need my yard weeded front & back. I used to do it all but after covid 4 years ago I can no longer do anything. :-( I used to do it all in a day, this guy said he'd do it all for 800.00! I told him way to much so he dropped it to 600.00 No thanks, I'm trying to find someone else now. I do what I can few minutes each day.
Dear Ben and your partner in crime, I am at a loss for words after watching your videos. Your incredible work and the impact it has around the world are truly inspiring. Thank you for coming to someone's rescue and making a difference. Your gratitude towards your viewers is deeply appreciated, but it is us who should be thanking you from the bottom of our hearts. Thank you so very much! 🇹🇷🇬🇧
I just hate to hear of the elderly being taken advantage of and still did not fix the problem. That is shameful. Yard is looking great! Bless you gents for giving Jenny a helping hand. You deserve a medal mates!
There is a special place is hell for those that rip off elderly and vulnerable people. Thank you for doing this kind of work and thank you for sharing. In a crazy world it is nice to see that there is still some good people helping those that need help. 🙏🏻
agree on all points. and by the looks of those tiles, the swindlers deliberately left one open for rain to get in, so they could come back and rip Jenny off again. some demon level of sc*mbag! - seriously? how do these types live with themselves.
Y’all need to knock out that brick wall and get her a gate. She needs a second exit out that yard in case of fire. Y’all did a great job considering the obstacles involved. 😊❤
It's very unusual - there must have been a reason at some point, but I agree, a second point of access would be much safer. Actually, looking again, the bricks seem to match the house, and look the same height and coping as the stub wall by the back door - could this have been a design feature when built? Good lord.
Older kids trying to take care of older parents can't cope with the outdoors sometimes ... they have to concentrate on the person and the house so this is how these things happen ... and all the older person can do is watch .... until BEN comes to the rescue!!!!!
That is so true. I used to do my Mum’s but when she needed more help, the garden had to be left. It’s amazing how quickly nature takes over and it looked like it hadn’t been touched in years even though it had only been a few months ☹️
@@kareno6986 Brambles in particular are a MENACE. They released a fungal rust in Australia to try to control it but it didn't really work; farmers still have to bulldoze, burn and spray.
Don't you worry Jenny. You're in the best of hands! Soon you'll have your roof properly repaired, all your garden will be beautiful once again, at no financial cost. Words of praise for Ben, super-daddy Paul, Collins and co. are simply not enough!
What a problem we have with our elderly being prisoners in their own homes that are often falling apart around them. Then along comes the thieves who take advantage of their dire circumstances and rob them. I’m so glad you and your family, Kress and all the other people are doing more than their bit to help turn around these elder’s living conditions. Bless you all 🙏🏼
@@helenpellegrino7759 after seeing those tiles, i'm pretty sure that the "loose" tile was left that way to let the rain in... creating an the opportunity to further exploit Jenny
Stunning to menthat the local equivalant of the Fire Marshal allows for gardens with no rear or side exit or access. People couls burn t.o death in a catostrophic house fire in their own back garden, unable to escape. And whoever charged that poor lady for her roof work should be banned from working on roofs. Shameful. Thank goodness you are there to pick up the pieces!❤❤
Aha, I see the wood chipper box is being put to good use. As usual you, your dad, Paul and Colin are guardian angels showing such kindness to the elderly. Lovely cleanup I hope you receive many blessings in return. 😊
Jenny must be so happy not to have to look at a jungle, now blank canvas, whatever you do it will be amazing and make her happy, nice seating to enjoy. We'll done to you both, always making a difference. Wait and see what happens next. Xx
I like to help out my elderly neighbours cut their lawns but I have my limitations due to needing two new hips. Thank you for doing what you do, the world needs more people like you guys.
Ben, you and your Dad are just amazingly hard workers, with hearts as big as the world! Bravo! Poor Jenny was being buried alive in her house before you came and sorted it out for her. ❤️💐🇨🇦
You are an angel for your community, your kindness, your selfness help and your golden heart make you an exceptional human being. I admire you, your community is lucky to have you Ben !!! Hugs to you and your family from Uruguay (a tiny country in South America) Cheers !!!
I do enjoy watching you and your dad working together. You both feed off each other which makes the tasks at hand more enjoyable to watch. That back yard looks so nice now and your not even finished.
You and your Dad helping elderly people reclaim their gardens is inspirational. You have gone from just power washing their driveways and patios to actually clearing their gardens and repairing damaged fences, windows etc. You say it's a blessing video but to the people you help, for them it truly is s blessing.
I can’t understand why able bodied family members, neighbours, and friends, would let these gardens end up so overgrown. It proves we need more people in the world like Ben and the team. Another sterling effort gentlemen.
I can - most people in the middle do not have time to do this, they have to work, pay bills, money is stupid tight so no decent tools... it is easy to say "why don't their families take care of this..." but most of us are overworked, underpaid, raising kids, trying to keep a roof over our heads and to try and tackle something as massive as most very overgrown backyards like this or worse, takes at least decent tools, doesn't have to be as fancy as what Ben's got, and the time to do this work. I agree, it would be nice if it was taken care of, but at the same time, do not shame other you have not met nor know. If we as a society valued each other more, things would not get so bad. These issues are, most of the time, not always, but most of the time, not for a lack of willing, but of a larger problem in society. Thank you for coming to my Ted Talk. 😅
@@horizon319wise words. We have no idea what’s going on in other peoples lives. Life is hectic and some barely are home and able to maintain what they have
Problem with being both elderly and disabled is loss of confidence to safely make it outside, especially if you live alone. There is a massive fear of falling and being unable to get help. Faced this with my late mother in law. Once she started falling, she was done with the garden and would only venture out there when we were there. With both of us working and living a couple of hours away, we visited weekly and took care of her courtyard garden. She could at least enjoy it through the patio doors and it did bring her a lot of pleasure! I believe in masses of colour and Spring bulbs in planters but someone would have to help her with it. Xx
Just had the last year doing the same for my mother in law. Unfortunatly we have had to put her in a care home at 91 and sell her house to pay for her care £1100 a week ..she is happy there but misses her garden ,,,i now volunteer doing the garden at the home which they all can enjoy .....
@@1tonyboatbrilliant that you are helping bring colour into their lives! Gardening is very satisfying and even more so when it is appreciated, which your efforts certainly will be.
The dynamic duo strike again. What a difference you make to these people’s lives …. Incredible. Jenny will not feel so closed in anymore with the mammoth effort of cleaning up her back yard. Well done!
Depends on right of access over the land in front of it! We bought our house from the builders. We have an attached garage, and when we bought it there was a gate in the fence to the side of the garage to access the back garden. When we went to the Solicitors to sign the mortgage the land map showed that we had no right of access over the land at the side of the garage to be able to use the gate - so it had to be removed!
It's a party wall built between the two sets of terraces ... at the back the land belongs to Jenny ... at the front the land belongs to her nextdoor neighbours.
Los descubrí hace unos meses y he visto todos sus videos. Es maravillosa la capacidad de entrega y dedicación que tienen Ben y su padre. Felicidades !!! Es tan esperanzador saber que hay personas como uds en este mundo. Un saludo desde México.
Son increíbles, me encanta verlos. Hermosa familia que tiene Ben y el bien que hacen en las comunidades a las que ayudan, en especial a los adultos mayores, Dios se lo pagará en abundancia. Saludos desde Puerto Rico ❤☺️
Ben, Dad, and all your helpers, great jobs you are doing. It is wonderful that you are able to help those that need help for no matter the reason. Love your attitude and cheerful smile to each and everyone you encounter. Your Kress tools are pretty awesome. Thank you all for all you do.😊
Ben you and your father always have a great smile and such a helping for these people in need. I love watching you guys and never know what your dad will do to get a laugh 😆. I thought he was going to get in the plastic car 🚗 😂. Thank you and may God continue to bless you and your family. 🙏🏼🌟🌹😊
The Holly Hocks that came up in the cracks brighten the whole perspective! I can just see a beautiful place for Jenny to sit out in the beautiful sunshine!
Jenny: Ben is the BEST. He is extremely thorough and just the nicest and funniest guy (along with dad Paul) and their work pals. You're in good hands!!!!!
Don’t know why they built these houses without an access to the garden - they look like council houses?? My sister in law bought theirs back in the 1980’s when they started allowing tenants to buy - she was lucky they had a corner unit with a gate to the road! Ben, you and your dad should have taken that wall out and put in a gate!!
You did well clearing it all out so quickly, especially lifting all of it over the wall. ❤️💡These people who rip the elderly off should be named and shamed!
Excellent job, fellas. Thank you for stepping up to help Jenny. As an elder person, myself, I know how frustrating it is that we spend all of our younger life contributing in every way that we can. Then, as soon as you aren’t taking care of others anymore, you get set aside and either just ignored or worse: preyed upon by jerks without a conscience.
Great job Ben. I’m looking forward to seeing next week’s episode. I too, have no access to the backyard from the front, so I have to haul my yard waste through the house! That is townhouse living! Again, you are setting an example for how to help the elderly, disabled and those in need. Thank you from New York!
Jackals always prey on the vulnerable, human jackals are cowards who are too lazy to actually work for their living. I'm glad you could help Jenny and perhaps help restore her faith in people. As always you, your dad & your friends are doing a fantastic job - I can't wait for the next episode!
Wow! There’s no messing around with you guys. That was a lot of work done in a short amount of time. But of course you’re professionals in the art of bramble removal now. Looks great. Good job guys. ❤
Wow, what a brilliant result already Ben, 👏 omg you work so hard, you so deserve something extra special. Like possibly a wonderful holiday, Looking forward to seeing the next episode. Knowing you, you will go above and beyond. Take care ❤🎉🎉🎉
You father and son are pure genius, have watched your videos from the beginning. What a wonderful thing you do for the elderly, I am proud of you both. Cheers from Perth Western Australia.
You guys are such good people! Thank you for all the hard work you do to help people. This lady seemed so nice and truly needed your help. There is still good in the world!! You are living proof of it. Blessings from Nashville Tennessee USA❤️🐝🤗
I will say it again. You and your father. Along with everyone's help are a god sent. Now that I'm getting up in age I realize how much we old timers can't do. Just to mow the lawn takes me all day. Because of my heath I have to stop and rest every 15 minutes. Big Thank You Sir's.
Interesting comments. With regard to keeping on top of things. When I worked 12hr days my garden got overgrown. When I had a holiday it was spent getting the garden round again. I rarely went away. I did what I could. I am 70 now and partly disabled. I have no children. However, my fortunes turned and I can now afford a gardener for a couple of hours every two weeks. An absolute Godsend. I am very fortunate. Both my neighbours either side, work. Their gardens too are overgrown but they do their best and occasionally family comes and they have a blitz. Ben is flying the flag, if only he and his team could be cloned. There are thousands of people in Jenny's position.
Ben, I have said it before, but I will say it again - you are an absolute GEM! As someone quickly approaching the age of those you have been helping, I want to say thank you for bringing light and life to so many. One bramble at a time!!
Helping out folks (especially the elderly) who have no one to help and/or those who have been taken advantage of by opportunists who take their money and have no intention to actually do the work properly shows your true character. You and your Dad and those who assist you in so many ways are truly showing everyone else the proper way to treat your fellow man. Great job and a true treat and relief for Jenny. 🙂
I wonder if you realise how much hope you give , that there are decent people in this world,and not all angels have wings. God bless you,your dad and your family ❤
Exploiting the elderly, in all manner, shape or form, is something that's happening the world over... I see it all the time in my country😢 FLAWLESS CLEANING, you guys have oodles of empathy, compassion and kindness for the senior's. keep doing what you are doing. Kudus to the truck that's always carting away the rubble. God Bless you guys. From South Africa
Hope you are all well! Jim’s planning officer has put the date back to 3rd of October.. so fingers crossed. Hope you enjoy today’s video.. episode two coming next week!
That's frustrating Ben, we won't have good weather for much longer, will it delay work starting ?
Can't wait to see Jim's new episode..
How is Norman?
I still think it should all be crazy paved and she can have flower pots everywhere so much easier for her to manage
Regardless of the time it may take I'm looking forward to seeing the project at Jim and his wife's home.
I hope he's not the kind of officer that wants to bribe? 😊
Fingers crossed that everything goes well!

Cheers Jeff! Appreciate it
Don't forget Collin!!!
You are an angel for your community, your kindness, your selfness help and your golden heart make you an exceptional human being. I admire you, your community is lucky to have you Ben !!! Hugs to you and your family from Uruguay (a tiny country in South America) Cheers !!!
I do enjoy watching you and your dad working together. You both feed off each other which makes the tasks at hand more enjoyable to watch. That back yard looks so nice now and your not even finished.
Well done guys.
What a pity that a vulnerable old lady like her should be fleeced so badly with her roofing work.
You and your Dad helping elderly people reclaim their gardens is inspirational. You have gone from just power washing their driveways and patios to actually clearing their gardens and repairing damaged fences, windows etc. You say it's a blessing video but to the people you help, for them it truly is s blessing.
I just knew your dad was going to wheel that little car away. He never misses a chance for humor!
I admire your patience, your kindness, and your work skills. You're doing so much good for people who can't any longer. Bless you. ⭐️💛⭐️💛⭐️💛⭐️👏👏👏👏👏👏❤️
Not sure if premiere comments count so leaving another comment here for the algorithm, so satisfying to watch and loved chatting to you live 😁 x
Flawless Cleaning Team deserve a medal for their tremendous efforts.
I can’t understand why able bodied family members, neighbours, and friends, would let these gardens end up so overgrown.
It proves we need more people in the world like Ben and the team.
Another sterling effort gentlemen.
My thoughts exactly.
One thing there is no gate to front yard. Two most people don't have the tools to do this work..... brambles clean up.
It looks like the immediate neighbors aren’t maintaining their yards and fences either.
I can - most people in the middle do not have time to do this, they have to work, pay bills, money is stupid tight so no decent tools... it is easy to say "why don't their families take care of this..." but most of us are overworked, underpaid, raising kids, trying to keep a roof over our heads and to try and tackle something as massive as most very overgrown backyards like this or worse, takes at least decent tools, doesn't have to be as fancy as what Ben's got, and the time to do this work.
I agree, it would be nice if it was taken care of, but at the same time, do not shame other you have not met nor know. If we as a society valued each other more, things would not get so bad. These issues are, most of the time, not always, but most of the time, not for a lack of willing, but of a larger problem in society.
Thank you for coming to my Ted Talk. 😅
@@horizon319wise words. We have no idea what’s going on in other peoples lives. Life is hectic and some barely are home and able to maintain what they have
You and your Dad are AMAZIMG! Thank you. We all love you.
Problem with being both elderly and disabled is loss of confidence to safely make it outside, especially if you live alone. There is a massive fear of falling and being unable to get help. Faced this with my late mother in law. Once she started falling, she was done with the garden and would only venture out there when we were there. With both of us working and living a couple of hours away, we visited weekly and took care of her courtyard garden. She could at least enjoy it through the patio doors and it did bring her a lot of pleasure! I believe in masses of colour and Spring bulbs in planters but someone would have to help her with it. Xx
I love that idea, masses of colour is so uplifting!
Just had the last year doing the same for my mother in law. Unfortunatly we have had to put her in a care home at 91 and sell her house to pay for her care £1100 a week ..she is happy there but misses her garden ,,,i now volunteer doing the garden at the home which they all can enjoy .....
@@1tonyboat All the best to you and your mother in law.
@@1tonyboat
Hopefully she is allowed flowers or plants for her room?
@@1tonyboatbrilliant that you are helping bring colour into their lives! Gardening is very satisfying and even more so when it is appreciated, which your efforts certainly will be.
I'm a seventy-eight year old single.lady. I am blessed with a neighbor just like you gentlemen. Please know we could never make it without you.
Well done lads for helping that lady out. Nice to see people doing something really good for a change to help change someone's life. 👍👍👍👍
The dynamic duo strike again. What a difference you make to these people’s lives …. Incredible. Jenny will not feel so closed in anymore with the mammoth effort of cleaning up her back yard. Well done!
Oh my word, you gave her back her garden! Thank you for being so kind to her, you and your dad are just Super Stars!
Some people make me sick. Thanks for all that you do. It’s absolutely amazing
It would definitely be an idea to have a gateway instead of the brick wall! Better access and safer as an escape route! You gentlemen rock 🤩🤩🤩
Depends on right of access over the land in front of it!
We bought our house from the builders. We have an attached garage, and when we bought it there was a gate in the fence to the side of the garage to access the back garden. When we went to the Solicitors to sign the mortgage the land map showed that we had no right of access over the land at the side of the garage to be able to use the gate - so it had to be removed!
Would create a new security issue to give easier access to the back garden for criminals and other lowlife.
@@garywagner2466 That wall was easily climbed 😉. For a fit person.
Not easy to get over in a fire for an elderly lady, I don’t fancy it at 72😳.
It's a party wall built between the two sets of terraces ... at the back the land belongs to Jenny ... at the front the land belongs to her nextdoor neighbours.
Los descubrí hace unos meses y he visto todos sus videos. Es maravillosa la capacidad de entrega y dedicación que tienen Ben y su padre. Felicidades !!! Es tan esperanzador saber que hay personas como uds en este mundo. Un saludo desde México.
Son increíbles, me encanta verlos. Hermosa familia que tiene Ben y el bien que hacen en las comunidades a las que ayudan, en especial a los adultos mayores, Dios se lo pagará en abundancia. Saludos desde Puerto Rico ❤☺️
Yet again Ben you and your dad are doing a fantastic job for people in the community.keep up the fantastic work
Ben, Dad, and all your helpers, great jobs you are doing. It is wonderful that you are able to help those that need help for no matter the reason. Love your attitude and cheerful smile to each and everyone you encounter. Your Kress tools are pretty awesome. Thank you all for all you do.😊
Ben and dad thankyou for bringing us together for another wonderful and inspiring show, God Bless you all,🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻❤️❤️🤗🤗
@@irenesloane6201 I always smile when Paul shows up.
Appreciate you all so much! Hope you know how important your part is in this makeover
Ben you and your father always have a great smile and such a helping for these people in need.
I love watching you guys and never know what your dad will do to get a laugh 😆. I thought he was going to get in the plastic car 🚗 😂.
Thank you and may God continue to bless you and your family.
🙏🏼🌟🌹😊
Some of my favorite guys on the RUclips! Always doing good work!
The Holly Hocks that came up in the cracks brighten the whole perspective! I can just see a beautiful place for Jenny to sit out in the beautiful sunshine!
Muchas gracias chicos por ayudar a las personas mayores que lo necesitan♥♥🌿🌿🕊🕊🙏🏼🙏🏼
Jenny: Ben is the BEST. He is extremely thorough and just the nicest and funniest guy (along with dad Paul) and their work pals. You're in good hands!!!!!
Where there's a will, there is a way!! No gate? we'll just hand it OVER the brick wall! You three are amazing and did well for Jenny. Great job!
Don’t know why they built these houses without an access to the garden - they look like council houses?? My sister in law bought theirs back in the 1980’s when they started allowing tenants to buy - she was lucky they had a corner unit with a gate to the road! Ben, you and your dad should have taken that wall out and put in a gate!!
Find these jobs so hard with no access but if we can make a difference then we will! Thank you so much for being a part of this
I wanted to put a gate there but that is next doors driveway! How bizarre
What you do for people is amazing & wonderful!
thank you ben and paul for all you do ❤
What a wonderful job you do for the elderly!!
Wonderful you and your team are the sunshine in the community!
You did well clearing it all out so quickly, especially lifting all of it over the wall. ❤️💡These people who rip the elderly off should be named and shamed!
I watched the premiere, but had to watch it again!! Awesome transformation!!!! 💖💖💖💖
Excellent job, fellas. Thank you for stepping up to help Jenny. As an elder person, myself, I know how frustrating it is that we spend all of our younger life contributing in every way that we can. Then, as soon as you aren’t taking care of others anymore, you get set aside and either just ignored or worse: preyed upon by jerks without a conscience.
Great job Ben. I’m looking forward to seeing next week’s episode. I too, have no access to the backyard from the front, so I have to haul my yard waste through the house! That is townhouse living! Again, you are setting an example for how to help the elderly, disabled and those in need. Thank you from New York!
Helen - Check out where they were putting the Rubbish over the Wall, that has been built to deny Access to the Rear Garden.
Thank you Ben, Paul, and Colin for all of your tireless efforts! Best wishes and hugs to you all!
Hello from Sacramento, CA. What you and your father are doing is so great.😊👍
Ben, Paul and your friend have made a tremendous difference in Jenny's yard. Looking forward to Episode 2. Have a blessed weekend.
It's Colin!
Awesome Ben and team
Makes my day seeing your videos on a Friday
You and your Dad are going to have the heaviest crowns in heaven. You are adding so many stars. You are great!
What an amazing job guys. You work so hard. Bless you❤
Pops is always so helpful. Hugs to him for helping you in your adventure. 😊
YAY THEY DID THE THING!!!!!!
Jackals always prey on the vulnerable, human jackals are cowards who are too lazy to actually work for their living. I'm glad you could help Jenny and perhaps help restore her faith in people. As always you, your dad & your friends are doing a fantastic job - I can't wait for the next episode!
Wow! There’s no messing around with you guys. That was a lot of work done in a short amount of time. But of course you’re professionals in the art of bramble removal now. Looks great. Good job guys. ❤
Ben and Paul, you never cease to amaze me with your kindness of helping the elderly. God Bless both of you. 🙏🙏🙏
I'll always have time for my seniors and if I can do something it about I will!
Wow, what a brilliant result already Ben, 👏 omg you work so hard, you so deserve something extra special. Like possibly a wonderful holiday,
Looking forward to seeing the next episode. Knowing you, you will go above and beyond. Take care ❤🎉🎉🎉
You are all grafters Ben, with hearts of gold. A fantastic video, as always, the world needs more people like you 3
You’re the best dear Ben. God bless👍👌👏🙏❤️
You father and son are pure genius, have watched your videos from the beginning. What a wonderful thing you do for the elderly, I am proud of you both. Cheers from Perth Western Australia.
You guys are such good people! Thank you for all the hard work you do to help people. This lady seemed so nice and truly needed your help. There is still good in the world!! You are living proof of it. Blessings from Nashville Tennessee USA❤️🐝🤗
Helping Jenny is terrific! I am so thankful that you and your dad are there to sort it all out. True heroes, true angels.❤️❤️❤️❤️
I really love how you and your dad make the strenous job look so easy and fun❤
I will say it again. You and your father. Along with everyone's help are a god sent. Now that I'm getting up in age I realize how much we old timers can't do. Just to mow the lawn takes me all day. Because of my heath I have to stop and rest every 15 minutes.
Big Thank You Sir's.
Good job guys! What a blessing to her!
Interesting comments. With regard to keeping on top of things. When I worked 12hr days my garden got overgrown. When I had a holiday it was spent getting the garden round again. I rarely went away. I did what I could. I am 70 now and partly disabled. I have no children. However, my fortunes turned and I can now afford a gardener for a couple of hours every two weeks. An absolute Godsend. I am very fortunate. Both my neighbours either side, work. Their gardens too are overgrown but they do their best and occasionally family comes and they have a blitz. Ben is flying the flag, if only he and his team could be cloned. There are thousands of people in Jenny's position.
Mate, top job! Comments and likes boost the channel. Keep going, inspirational. 👍🏼
Ben, I have said it before, but I will say it again - you are an absolute GEM! As someone quickly approaching the age of those you have been helping, I want to say thank you for bringing light and life to so many. One bramble at a time!!
You and your dad and team are national treasures ❤
Helping out folks (especially the elderly) who have no one to help and/or those who have been taken advantage of by opportunists who take their money and have no intention to actually do the work properly shows your true character. You and your Dad and those who assist you in so many ways are truly showing everyone else the proper way to treat your fellow man. Great job and a true treat and relief for Jenny. 🙂
Love to see the great work you boys put in helping others! Well done and keep it up 😊
Thank you Ben and Paul for your generosity for those in need! 👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏💙💙
You guys are gems!! Kuddos from Alabama USA! Keep up the good work. So many need help.
What an amazing role model you are for your two little boys.
Thank you for helping this wonderful lady❣️your kindness helps me feel better about the world we’re living in. Hope everything goes well for Jim&Jean!
Wow it looks so much better already. You both are incredible, helping people like you do, so Awesome. 😊❤
The work you boys do is incredible, that must be such a relief for her
A great beginning to another awesome episode of helping your neighbor!! God bless you! ❤
I wonder if you realise how much hope you give , that there are decent people in this world,and not all angels have wings. God bless you,your dad and your family ❤
Exploiting the elderly, in all manner, shape or form, is something that's happening the world over...
I see it all the time in my country😢
FLAWLESS CLEANING, you guys have oodles of empathy, compassion and kindness for the senior's.
keep doing what you are doing.
Kudus to the truck that's always carting away the rubble.
God Bless you guys.
