My biggest makeover yet | part 12 - massive yard clean up!

- Опубликовано: 8 дек 2023
- Hello everyone,
I finally have made it back to this property and as you can see, Mother Nature has left me a lovely surprise. This is what I get for leaving a yard unattended to for 3 months during spring!
The goal today was to get everything back to how it was previously and I'm happy to say that was accomplished. There will only be one more visit needed as far as gardening goes and then a final visit to pressure wash all of the paths and patio. Hard to believe it's coming to an end!
The work that's being done at this property is at no cost to the clients thanks to every single one of you who watch my videos. Income is made through RUclips advertising revenue and the Buy Me A Coffee website.

Haven't seen any of the previous visits to this property? Or maybe you have and feeling like rewatching?

Thank you as always for watching. Enjoy the video and see you again soon.
I don't understand why some people are being so negative on these comments. The owners are obviously not able to do upkeep. Ryan mentioned a few times in this series that he will do maintenance going forward. Never judge.
100% correct. I am a believer in freedom of speech so people can say what they wish however, as you've mentioned, this couple simply isn't able to take care of their garden due to depression, back problems and sight issues.
@@earthtrimgardens2249can you maybe do a weed killer plus reseed so you don't have to work so hard next time? Between you and the guy I watch in Tasmania, Australia only has vines, not grass 😅.
AMEN
I’m sure he got a fat tip ♥️
Ryan, you have the patience of a saint! Excellent job on this back yard, and I agree that just strimming the vegetable garden area makes the most sense. It seems rather unlikely that the gardening bug is going to strike this family anytime soon. As you said, if it does you can always dig it up for them. They are beyond lucky to have had you work on their yard again. Come on everyone- hit the like button for this video and subscribe! Costs you nothing and is very helpful to Ryan. Nearly 4000 views on this video, but only 500 odd likes?! People are lazy. He works very hard and makes a great video for our entertainment. Surely we can do that for him. ❤️🇨🇦
Thanks again Rita, feel free to continue to be my spokesperson 😁
@@earthtrimgardens2249 Haha, consider it my Christmas gift to you, Ryan! Merry Christmas and thanks for a year of great videos! ❤️🎄❄️
Heart breaking to see all that overgrown again. All the wonderful, hard work you did to uncover all that stone work. Cannot wait to see it when you finish all the details. Such an amazing transformation.
Thanks for helping the home owners out. They were obviously keen gardeners (so many garden beds & vegie patches) before their health deteriorated. It must give them a real boost every time you you show up. Thanks for helping them stay in their own home 🏡 well done Ryan!
The homeowners must be overjoyed to see their gardens looking so clear again. Now they can enjoy the lovely outdoor space,
They certainly are!
The first video i watched of yours was the first in this series. You have done so much to help this couple and others that are not able to maintain their garden for what ever reason. Your giving them so much more back than a tidy garden. Depression can be a big factor and you doing this can help them. You have a heart of gold ryan and i love watching your vids. ❤
Thank you Elizabeth I appreciate that. I'm glad you enjoy watching.
Another MONSTER mess turned into a FAIRY garden. Well done 👏 . ❤ From Canada 🇨🇦
Thank you 😊
Oh wow!!!!!! You were holding out on us!! I was thrilled to see you were back here!! Wow the weeds had grown however they are nowhere near like before! I admit, I wished I could reach through the screen and spray some Weed and Feed onto that centre part. I also would pull up those planks and turn it back into lawn. Sure it will mean ongoing mowing but so much easier to care for. Even just removing the planks and mowing it regularly so the weeds don't get too far would be good. Of course neither I, nor you Ryan can choose that for the owners. You really have improved that back yard so much. You really have put in the hard yards there. Well done!
Thanks Lulu as always!
Yay! Part 12!! lol For the most part is staying the way you left it. That vegetable garden is going to be a mess all the time I guess? Is there a way to stop at least the weeds from growing back? I always wondered about that 😁 You are a good person to do this for them. When I lived with my grandsons and I got fed up with them not mowing (I had a place in the back yard ) I bought myself an electric weed eater with the cord and would go out for about 20 min intervals (resting in between) and do as much damage as I could 🤣😂 It took me probably three times longer than it would have been for them with their gas mower and weed eater. But I got the job done! I have sever osteoarthritis in both my knees and left hip so it takes me awhile to get things done. 😂🤣 Thank you for another enjoyable clean up hon. See you next time! 💚💚💚
These garden maintenance videos are my bedtime viewing so relaxing seeing everything coming together no murder or depravity, good for an old female gardener like me 😊
Great way to unwind 😄
I agree with that comment there are people out there with either physical or mental issues because of these issues then there are people like Ryan who help hard off to you Ryan
Well done, Ryan, looking good again. It looks like these people have hoarding issues as well.
I just do hope you are not being taken advantage of, you are too nice a person to have that done to you.
Have a great day and see you on the next video. 😎
Yes I believe they do unfortunately. Definitely not being taken advantage of though 😄
Hope everyone had a good day
Greetings from the USA
Good job on the yard. Stay safe.
It was goid to see the property again. Well done ❤
I am looking forward to the next video on this yard Brian.
Hi Ryan, cleaning up yards is like woman's work-never done! Cheers matey!!🥰😘🥵💕👌👍👍💪💪🙏 thanks for the vid🍃🍂
I enjoyed this video so much. That is marvelous back yard and you did a great job. I wish I could see it after you power wash it! You have given a great gift to the family who must have enjoyed it for years. Maybe they can have fond memories in there yard now!♥️
Sad to see it's not being maintained after all the work you had done.
It is however that is why Ryan was there. Obviously the people there are unable to care for their section in a way you or I would. We don't know why and its unhelpful to assume the reason. Sometimes, for some people, just keeping themselves getting up every day can be a huge effort. Its why I appreciate what Ryan does. Giving people an opportunity to see what is possible can be life changing. It may not have happened last time Ryan was there however this time might be the one that does
Keep on plugging away mate ! Hard to come back to it like that again but once your done, it will look great I know. Well done as always 👍
Thank you mate.
Amazing transformation ❤❤
Still going strong awesome job 👍
There seem to be a large number of comments on this video relating to "lazy" or "unappreciative" owners. Please know this is not the case. One suffers from major back issues and depression and the other is legally blind so they simply can't manage their garden. I will be regularly maintaining this garden once it is completed so it will stay in a good condition from here on out 😀
That got overgrown so quickly!
Bit disappointing that the garden hadn't been maintained by the owners in your absence. But you have done another fantastic job. Look forward to seeing it completed 🎉🎉
Thank you 😊
I just love all your videos!! I love your work ethic and attention to all the little details 👍 keep up the great work 😊
I appreciate that, thank you.
Looks great thanks to your previous work
Excellent job 🙌❤👏👏👏
Spray weed killer everywhere that will keep the yard from growing those pesky weeds. Doing a great job 😀😊🤗
Great job, too bad you had to repeat it since they didn't! Hopefully once completed they will show their appreciation by maintaining it! Looking forward to the next video. Keep on keeping on 😊
I'll be maintaining this property on a monthly basis once it's completed 👌
That's incredible how much it grew in 3 months!
I watched all 12 episodes and enjoyed them all. Well done Ryan.🌷🇦🇺
Glad you cleaned up the mess. It is obvious no one else did.... ❤
Love your positive attitude and hard work!
I pray they are able to enjoy this beautiful space you’ve cleaned up. Amazing! 💗
👽👽👽Hello again from SW North Dakota Badlands🇺🇸...im loving your work on this one, can't Wait to see after the pressure wash, all that lovely brick 🌞 Thank you for sharing, Ryan
I'm looking forward to the pressure wash too!
Whew! Big job
All i can say is Good Lord!!!!
Great job again!❤🙏
Thank you.
I really hope that they are going to maintain this garden after all the hard work and hours you have put in on it
Well they certainly haven’t maintained it so far. I fear it will all grow back. All the growth Ryan has cut will come back.
Ryan is going to do maintenance.
I will be maintaining it monthly once it's all done 😊
Brilliant😊
Google RUclips algorithm thingo has got to push this up! It would be a crime not to.
I agree! 😊
They must own their home as no landlord - not even state government- would let them keep the lease after the first routine house inspection. I just watched the beginning of this cleanup and that’s the only comment I can make. Oh - and the fact that they are very lucky to have you work your butt off claiming back their yard.
I wish someone could maintain this property full time. Ty for helping them. At one time, the yard was probably beautiful.
I will be monthly now 😄
@@earthtrimgardens2249 That is awesome. I know you are a good man and give back. We need more people on the planet like you. Merry Christmas from Arkansas.
This is my favorite cleanup…I could not figure out the paths that never ended…it was a surprise each week!
D
Me either!
Good job!! 👏 👏 👍
I feel that. I have an occasional lawn that I do that only calls me once it's well past easily mangable height. Doing it later this week in fact in the NZ summer sun that isn't as brutal as AU but close enough. Best intentions and all that but sometimes we can't maintain everything as we would like to with available time and options.
When you cleared this originally there was a section in the front lawn that you planned to clear. Will you be doing that at a later date? I have thoroughly enjoyed this make-over!
Ooh gosh, I don't remember which area this was?
Great job, if only the owners would agree to a skip bin to remove any rubbish to declutter the backyard . Then they could really enjoy the back yard .
Exactly! I will try again.
❤❤❤❤good job
Another excellent job Ryan!
Looks great! :)
Got to post more your great. God bless
Maybe you should name this "The never ending Story" ❤
It felt like it that's for sure!
A great job 👍👍
Hi Ryan that was a fantastic job you did on this family’s home 🏠 looks great 👍 David 👌🇬🇧👍👌❤️
Love it
Very good job
Great job, Ryan! 👍
👍🏻
Its easier to comment than actually doing it .its not easy as it looks
I can’t believe what you came back to!😢
Mother nature will claim back what we have taken if we let her. We are merely visitors. This proves what can happen in a short period of time.
💚👍👍👍
Second "free" yard clean up eh? Hmmmmm.... looks like in the three months you have been away, nothing was done to keep the yard up. Hope the situation isn't one where they can't put some kind of effort into maintaining the property. If all the "stuff" piled up on the patio is any indication, I have to maybe not wonder why you found it in the shape it was in. You are a saint for re-tackling this back yard. Can see why you are being more selective as to what you are willing to do this time around. Good job as always. BIG props to you.
Thank you. I have been told by the owners they will have me back on a regular basis (paid) for maintenance.
Ty máš opravdu moc rád velké výzvy. Čím hůř to vypadá, tím víc tě to láká 😅. Ale výsledek je vždy perfektní. A ty navíc pracuješ velmi pečlivě a poctivě. Za to ti patří velký dík! Gratuluji! Jana 🏅🏆👏💯👍💚🌿
You are right, I can't help myself 😅
11:17 weee😜
The only way to permanently deal with those weeds is to tarp it. Easier than having grow back every time.
Surely you didn’t think they would keep it up.
No I wasn't expecting it.
👏👏👏👏👏👏👏
I don’t know, ryan, I thought the “never ending story” was a bigger project.
I think you're right. Maybe I've chosen to forget how bad it was 😅
Enjoyed the vid. Something I was just wondering though. Given the amount of critters that can potentially kill you over there, e.g. snakes, spiders, drop bears LOL, do you take any precautions given everything is overgrown or are you so used to it that you don’t even give it a thought?
It always is in my mind so I am cautious. Lol...drop bears.
Hi Ryan just I thought if you cover veg beds over you wouldn't have to do it again mate
Why did the owner not keep it down after you done all that work.Are they just lazy or cannot be bothered I take my hat off to you and all the hard work you have done
They are both struggling with multiple issues, it's honestly not something that bothered me.
✨🏆✨
🏆
These people did not spend one minute to maintaine their garden after you did a great job in spring,so much hard work waisted.
It's not a concern of mine, I understand they don't have the means to so I'm happy to do what I can.
Hi. Do you have the link to the front yard series? I think I have it but wanted to make sure. I want to watch all of it.
I'll have to hunt it down but yes I can share that.
What about the possum? Still living there?😂
Certainly is!
I thought someone was meant to come and put that shed up
Me too 🤷
Have you ever heard of vinegar to control weeds?
Yep! 🙂
oh for god's sake. How disheartening! Why live in a place with garden, and have a skilled rescuer , to then totally neglect it? Wonderful work Ryan.
Sharing everyone of Jesus Christ, He is coming back. We are spiritually saved by grace through faith in Jesus Christ our Lord God and Savior.
It does not appear they have even tried. All your hard work; you could have thought they could at least made an effort. A bit disheartening. You continue to do a great job on it.
Would you have the ability to lay pet friendly poison down in the entire patio area? It seems a shame that it will be overgrown in just a few months if the homeowners are unable to tend to it after all that work you put into it.
Yes definitely can do.
I sincerely hope that grass was not full of dog sh.. again.
No not this time! Thank goodness.
Ryan I feel this garden is a lost cause. No one is gonna follow up after you. What a shame it was a tremendous task of all the hard work you gave it.
I say put a bow on it and call it done.
I am not a quitter but you would be there forever and all to do the same thing over and over again.
It's a trashed up place
Actually, they have asked me to come back monthly to maintain it once it's all done.
Why don't you take care of your knees and skin in such a "prickly" job? Without special clothes ((( Is the owner of the yard participating in the "Lazy Man of the Year" competition? He will definitely win.
Hey its not helpful to assume you know what is happening in that persons life that led to the yard becoming so overgrown. Obviously in three months, the yard became very overgrown. So its easy to see how it became so bad initially. Personally I prefer to focus on the great work Ryan has done for free. He has done an amazing job and despite the weeds growing again, its nowhere near as bad as it was.
The weeds weren't actually prickly so I was fine 😄. As for the state of the garden, of the two owners, one is legally blind and the other has major back issues and suffers depression so I was expecting that the garden would be in a messy state.
@@earthtrimgardens2249 That's good Ryan. You are a good person. A change in our circumstances can happen in a moment so personally I think its important to never say never or "I would never let"... or "it would never happen to me". When I was a young adult I was like that. Boy I had some tough lessons ahead of me after that. I also know how things can get out of control and the costs and effort in fixing a yard like this is out of reach for so many people and it just gets worse. I do think its a great thing to know there are people like you who are willing to take on jobs like this and have found a way to hopefully not be out of pocket and still help to keep the costs very low for the clients or do it for free. I don't know how people get out of situations like this otherwise and it certainly won't help them to overcome their disability. In fact it may be a contributing factor. I don't have much to offer other than words of encouragement and appreciate and plenty of likes and comments. When I can I will do much more. I do appreciate you and the work you do. You are doing a community service. Its priceless.
@@earthtrimgardens2249 Thanks for the answer! I didn't know the details. But still take care of your legs and knees. Good job. Good luck!
Людям должно быть стыдно так жить...Кругом грязь...
I really feel anger towards home owners/renters who have huge jobs done for free then do nothing to maintain them. Some are but most not.
No need, it honestly doesn't concern me 😊
So disappointing to watch Ryan slave over this garden. He took such pride in his work as we all watch, so did we. Then to return on only 3 months and see this mess. I am a little angry at the homeowner. They took advantage of Ryan. They can travel but can’t hire someone to maintain Ryan’s labor of love. Shame on them. 😢
Haven't heard from them in months. Sad to think it's a mess out there again.
Shame it is reverting to as it was, all that hard work for nothing. It is a shame the old couple's family couldn't keep it down for them and not rely on you. Their family should get rid of all that rubbish as well, it has been months.
Confused a bit but if you were here just three months ago, why hasn't t owner maintained property? There w even crap thrown into the yard that should be in a shed or trash in. Just curious... This is laziness. I ll go watch another video now. 😡
Why in heavens name didnt they CARE to maintain....I'd be flippin livid. You spent hours upon hours in this disaster lot. Lazy SODS. Sorry but I'm right mift about this😢. The bs demands of the shed, dont touch this blah blah blah..... oh I'm flipping mad
I understand why people may be upset but there are valid circumstances so it doesn't bother me in the slightest.
Are you being played for a sucker? It’s one thing to volunteer your time and infinite energy to reclaim the mess this property was. It’s quite another thing to return and find the yard in practically the same condition. Do they have no money to pay you? Are they sick, old, lazy, poor, all of the above? I think everyone is in agreement that you should tell us. We’ve been through this with you and all your videos so it’s understandable that no one wants to see you being taken advantage of. The nerve of them not to lift a finger is so disrespectful to you. Are you fooling yourself that you’re making money on these videos? Hard to justify.
One is legally blind, the other had major back issues and depression so I never expect them to be able to do much if anything. As for pay, they have offered me money but I have refused so I am definitely not being taken for a ride.
