Garden Jungle Neglected for Six Years | Transformed Over 3 days!

Video Description

So this one came through to the call centre and I went around to do a quote. When I saw how bad the place was, I offered to do it for free if I was allowed to post the transformation on social media. The tenant agreed and this is the result. The lady next door told me that the property had been a rental for the last 6 years and pretty much been neglected ever since. Apparently, the former owner used to keep it immaculate, with garden beds and plenty of Roses - how things change. On this cleanup, I get the place back into reasonable shape and make it much easier for future maintenance. All up, I spent around 12 hours on this job, with 2 trips to the landfill.

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. Q: Why do you have 2 channels that seem the same? A: Quick Cuts (my original channel) has music in the background. Quick Cuts V2 is for those that like just machine noise, and it doesn't have music.
