He Helped Me Clean Up This UNBELIEVABLE Overgrown Yard

I quoted for this overgrown yard before we were hit with all the rain so I've been trying to get here for weeks. It's dried enough for me to get out and mow down this overgrown buffalo / St Augustine grass. As always, it was worse than expected but we did take all the grass again.
I have a helper today for this clean up. It was a nice change to have someone to help with the work.

[@kimtaylor5176]

Wow, what a place! Very nice looking place after it is cleaned up! Good job guys.

[@bambamnj]

Man if you had a sickle bar mower, I think your life would have been much easier. Good job getting it done with what you had.

[@ericagunn6664]

Here in U.K we don't have lawn rules as long as our gardens don't look like steptoes parler it's ok.

[@csiga79]

Holy sh$t! You guys needed a forestry mulcher bobcat for this lawn! 🫣

[@shellyhuckabay3819]

[@sylviacheve7837]

The most beautiful path edge at 30.31 I have ever seen, so neat so straight so regular!

[@robertshrewsbury5067]

Carthic does one of the manicured lawns and he is brave enough to try one with runners as tall as you are??? Brave soul. The hazardous part is this is Landscape Archeology, literally not being able to see what exists under that mass. Two people trying different approaches to work out how to get it done. Good idea. I like that someone was thoughtful and built a ramp to the upper area. Your heroic small mower is doing well. Two talented people working on it at once, it is interesting how fast you are getting it back in shape. You two got a lot done, bit by bit it was moved to being orderly and with good lines.

[@billrobbins5874]

Beautiful yard but rather oddly configured. Very difficult job but you both worked well toward the really satisfying outcome! 👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍 Personally, would have had alot of mishaps with those retaining walls.

[@bernicereinhard3764]

Bet he's regretting helping you after using the push mower lol.

[@OasisLawns]

Nice selection of push mowers tim. I especially like carthic’s

[@senemulku1299]

Bravo guys good job 👍 it was tough one.

[@nanadot0227]

Great job!

[@aquamwoman55]

😅 Thought you two were going to crash into each other mowing !

[@BosisofSweden]

You should probably learn how to use a scythe. They are the perfect tool for this and much faster and easier to clean up after as well. And the grass can go in bags to some animals...

[@patsampson6990]

What a huge mess, and you two got it down and in control. Homeowner needs to invest in a string trimmer (just my opinion) to keep it under control!

[@brendabroschard5781]

Why are your lawns or your grass so tall in Australia? Great job.

[@zygmuntthecacaokakistocrat6589]

I'm surprised you haven't got a flamethrower for these sorts of jobs. 'Twould make quick (tho' dirty) work of it . . .

[@jcaughman01]

Tim, I am trying to find that head you use with the triple blades on it, but for the life of me I can't remember what it's name is. Could you pass that on to me, Please?

[@budheSemarang]

Pernah kejawa main. Teresno

[@trevorloeew]

why not take the bulk off with a scythe then clean it up with a mower

[@LeckGuyton]

Your helper seems clueless on what to do unless you tell him.

[@raphaelszok8561]

Where are the snakes?

I don’t want to know 😂

[@tinaredington1292]

Whoooeee. That back yard was a true test for the equipment! That is some gnarly stuff but it looks a lot better now. The front wasnt as nasty it almost looks like a regular lawn now. Good job men!

[@davidhead5943]

i think they should invest in some baby goats free lawn Care !

[@jeninmontana]

I think this is an incredible property - the stone retaining walls & the brick pavers. Now that you're on the job, I have no doubt this will be a beautiful lawn!

[@janeparker570]

Your lawnmower choreography is fun to watch. That was a tough job, hard on an& machine

[@nvywf]

Great job Tim and Carthic! Enjoyed you both learning and helping each other.

[@kathleenahart1331]

You two had some great teamwork going. Insane amount of grass in that back yard.

[@Hedriks]

I think Carthic's electric rotary tool at doing the edging was good, it just seemed faster at what I've seen on edges.

[@karenmccourt8240]

I would have taken one look at that job and started crying. The shear volume of work that needed to be done. What an amazing transformation you two did.

[@deborahrunnells8222]

The owner should at least pay half of what you would have earned

[@MetaSighted]

It would be interesting to see a lawn scythe used on grass like this, it would cut right thru the tall grass.

[@corinnebourke6525]

I was just gonna comment that. I reckon the scythe to start with to get all the length out then rake it up before lawnmower with catcher on.

[@wendymorrison5803]

Scythes work best on upright grass. A scythe would not get under the flat runners, the weight would be a problem too. A quality brush cutter, cutting down from above the weeds is a good option. Cutting side to side in this can be hard on your body and tangle the machine al the time.

[@joane.3533]

I have a neighbor who didn't cut his grass and it was at least four feet tall. He finally cut it and his lawnmower kept stalling on him and he ended up using a weed wacker. It took him all day! If he had just mowed it once a week, he would have saved himself a lot of time. But noooo, he had to go golfing.

[@jeanivey111]

Awsome,Tim. You guys worked well together. Good job. Keep up the good work young man. Be Blessed.🙏🏾🙏🏾

[@patriciamoore3166]

Well done to Carthic / Karthic for not running away and sticking with it!

[@rskrao9152]

I think you got his name correct with "K". Appreciate that!

[@ma.bellaraquedan4212]

good job

[@hairymongrell]

good to see some electric gear out for a run ! i know they are not up to comercial standards yet but i have swapped all of my lawn gear over to ryobi except the mower and love it.

[@kayeh3881]

The 'chase' scene at 24 minutes looked so fun!!!

[@marciacahoon2545]

Wow! That St Augustine grass is crazy! Amazing that the whipper and that bulldog of a mower were able to cut through it! The two of you did a Great job! Hopefully they can now keep on top of it also it doesn’t get so out of control! I can see where it is a challenging yard though with the retaining wall & two levels!

[@jamesalinio5277]

Looks much better Tim, I had my share of Saint Augustine grass when I was in Florida years ago, now I have a bit of everything here in Pennsylvania, and the grass is just greening up good, but I have snow forecast this week so we'll see,

[@lisab.1595]

Great job and great video. Thank you for sharing. Boy, what a daunting task that was.

[@suerobinson844]

Hi Tim and Carthic, great team work guys. Carthic I remember seeing you in Tims video of you and your beautiful lawn. Watching the grass faii off the retaining wall was fun.You earned you pay on this one guys. Hi from Queensland 🐨

[@AnitaSouthall]

🖐💜🇦🇺

[@larryfeeks6620]

I've mowed my share of St. Augustine grass here in florida, but I've never seen it like that. Lol! You, two, did an awesome job!

[@PugLifeRocks]

OMG! That lawn looks like a jungle. What kind of grass grows in Australia? Nice job!!

[@randylopez4102]

Man, Carthic is brave by bringing a battery ryobi whipper to a jungle 🤣 you guys put some work in! Another solid video!

[@luisalzamora5002]

Great job Tim but I'm still disturb by the shoe on the roof 😅

[@AnitaSouthall]

Aussie kids 😆 🤣 😂

[@cathiwim]

So go get it! Lol!

[@msmuffet_16]

Great job guy's, it looks far better than I thought it would, again top job 😉👍🌿☘🌱🍀

[@Zozziethe3zees]

What a great choreographed team you made in the backyard. That was quite some heavy grass but you conquered it masterfully. Well done and a pleasure to watch !!!!

[@nightdweller6446]

that's seriously overgrown buffalo grass. That waterfall of grass off the retaining wall was amazing

[@GrasshopperLawncareGA]

Good job. It is amazing how much easier a job is with a helper. It gives everyone a chance to catch their breath.

[@nancyjenkins3716]

Enjoyed watching the two of you work and trying different equipment. I guess you would have to mow this type of grass quite often to keep it manageable. My favorite was when the cascading grass on the stone wall came down @21:15 when you edged!

[@ChristmasCrustacean1]

when Carthic cut the overhang like he was shearing a sheep I laughed, that is some serious growth.

[@AnitaSouthall]

sheep 🐑 🐏 🐑 🤣🤣🤣

[@vickytownsend1646]

Tim you and Carthic worked really well together. That was a really thick and nasty back yard, I enjoyed watching the two of you using your different skills into getting that yard back in shape, looking forward to seeing you go back to do your final touches.

[@luannvondracek439]

Teamwork brought that dream to reality 😊. Good to see your different styles play well together. Truly enjoyable.

[@DownButNotOutYet]

Morning Timothy, I think there was more work than we realised! It looks so much more tidy, and a few more trips with the lawn mover will bring it to perfection. Having such a pristine lawn which Carthic manages, I wonder what his thoughts were when he saw that long grass. It will be such a neat and tidy home once all the lawns are under control. Well done a pleasure to watch your techniques in mastering those overgrown properties. It is your passion, and the master as well. Take care, kind regards.

[@marygrogan6101]

Glad you had help. Fun to watch the two of you get the job done.

[@kathleenegan8660]

I was wondering if a small cultivator with a tooth bite adjustment might be good for those long streamers.

[@sylviasanchez585]

Great job you two. It was definitely a challenging one for sure. A combination of different tools did the job.

[@meegan3643]

What a great job guys, that sure was hard work! Well done 😊

[@Paulie1232]

Carthic was a brave man....in his mine I know he was saying WTF . .

[@nicholasittzes7224]

Wow! Looks like Australia has all the toughest grasses in the world! It seems to already be in bales once it's tall. I guess it's not as bad as that couch grass? Any idea if it makes good fodder for livestock or horses? Can't get over how thick and lush the back looked.

[@tigergreg8]

Beautiful work. I'll bet the neighbors are thrilled to see it looking so much better. Carthic's lawns look more like the green from a golf course.

[@judyfenske1429]

It needs to be a certain type of seed to do the golf course grass.

[@tigergreg8]

@@judyfenske1429 Oh yes, we used to live by a golf course growing up. I was just referencing it, because it's the closest I've seen a lawn look like a Green. We actually had someone nearby, who's front lawn was done as a Green.

[@TheAllthegoodstuff]

Well done, lads. Quality job.

[@Thisismeeeeee]

Thats awesome. Trying to learn as much as I can about lawn care as my dad died and I try to help mum as much as I can. numerous people we have paid have done it a few times and are not interested in a continuous job. Our lawn is thick and hard to mow but the edges are a challenge for me lol. Any tips would be great 😂 I'm ok with using the trimmer under fences ect but tilting it to get a straight edge is challenging

[@ellbow7287]

When your doing the edges walk backwards with the trimmer , it easier to get a straight line because your not throwing the grass over the edge obscuring what you're trying to cut.

[@annagray6491]

Soo funny listening to you both talking at high speed! 😂 great job done!

[@gregatkinson2541]

Very good work Tim very thick grass, your mate working with you a great help , very enjoyable, Thanks Tim...

[@rondanakamura2655]

Well done, indeed, men! I would LOVE to see someone do pressure washing once you're done.

[@bmckinney1316]

Great videos and great job Tim! Tell your bride we miss not seeing her help you on your adventures! We understand she is busy with job and running a household but we miss her smiling face!😀 Bullet Bob from Far W. Texas! 🤠🤠🤠👍👍👍❤️❤️❤️!

[@manordell]

Extraordinary! Brilliant transformation. I take my hat off to to you.

[@barbarazamora367]

you guys need a bushog that is some thick stuff!

[@tracymarie4633]

Tim, the camera gives the impression you're trying to go deep with that tool. Seems it is catching. What's happening? Maybe "top-it" 1st? Just found you today and subscribed.

[@abhashchandrakanth153]

अति उत्तम! एत्तेक पैघ घास के साफ क देलियै! बड़ सुंदर लागल! 😍👍

[@janboll7174]

It would be nice if you gave a bit of background as to why the yards are overgrown. Did the owner go out-of-town for a bit and his regular mower person just decide not to do the back yard? Did the owner get sick/injured and was only able to do the front? We don't need personal info, but the 'why' would be nice to know.

[@AnitaSouthall]

Interesting to see you buddy up. It can be easy to trip over each other in a small space until you get used to each other's work styles. Great to have someone coming alongside or behind you clearing the way or emptying your mower catcher. im not a fan of buffalo lawn either. 💜🖐🥰

[@twillavanwey8880]

Hey Tim I'm from Wisconsin Just wanted to let y'all know your doing a very good job. But would love to see ya get a riding lawn mower that'd be a lot easier on you especially with that tall grass and never know what's in that grass it could be snakes or something but I don't know might want to check into it maybe someone can give you a riding lawn mower that will help you be a lot easier on your body but you're doing a wonderful job thank you and I enjoy your video bye now

[@Jennifer62389]

Don't feel you have to apologize, if people can't understand that when you cut that tall grass that the sun can't get through to the bottom and is brown then they're just plain ignorant.

[@131dyana]

You guys did a great job thank you for sharing. God bless.

[@jefferymitchell9574]

Great final product. I think your partner got an awakening to some of the more difficult yards to cleanup.

[@micheleborowski2590]

Lol..it’s funny watching both of you at once mowing!!

[@elisabethmcconville1890]

where are you based, Tim??

[@sarahclark2668]

You did a great job

[@johannawolf2587]

This...was a Job!!! Carthic was an Awesome guest!!! A little help goes a long way. Beautiful yard once it was cleaned up. Need to see more Guests ,get their opinion also. Wonderful work!!! 👍😎☮️💖🌳🌱💐

[@ThatHomelessScrubbalo]

@24:15 Why do i hear the Benny Hill Theme song in my head?

[@maxineclark5086]

To Tim that was a hell of a nightmare of a job tell me this Tim don't you wish sometimes you had a magic wand and just go bippity boppity boo I'm the job is done game over you and your friend the lawn mowers going up and down that looks very very 😂🤭 under the front yeah looks like a big mess but what a transformation looks twice is better and what you started with I see you sent me a second video I'll be watching that one sometime later today ok Tim so I'm going back to sleep now I'm very very tired it's very early in the morning over here in Perth WA 😴.

[@ldqa2737]

So glad to see Carthic joining you! Nice work both of you!! 😎👍

[@ruthstory2277]

Excellent video!! Unreal how tall the grass was in back! Great clean up!

[@mannyortiz4814]

Happy Easter Tim my love. You guys did a fantastic job of homeowners lawn. The property looks great. It was hard work but you guys tackled it. Honey, your pecs are looking sexy. Handsome as ever. If this was my home I would be very proud. Take care and stay safe and beware of false prophets 🇺🇸🌹👍🍺🕊🐇🙏😇🌞❤️🐣🐰

I could see a scythe being used he to get through that tall grass

[@anitarodriguez9955]

Why did they make the yard on all those bricks?

[@juliabrown4398]

This is a nice property wants its completed done. 👌🏽 and many thanks go to Mystery man for his hard work of hands of helping this other's man out with his work. He needs his own you tube channel and lawn care services. This was a tall beep root grass job to take on but at the end its was beautiful great job well done by both of them from start to finish..👍🏽😊✌🏽

[@rosekathrein1119]

Good job

[@PugLifeRocks]

I hope you paid your guest helper too.

[@shaggyda2758]

Great job on that one for-sure!, team work at its finest.

[@pedroesteben2607]

Hi Mate. Great team effort there. I don't claim that this is the best way, but cutting long grass with a blade - a good method is to undercut and let it fall, then on the return sweep keep the blade flat and kind of brush what you just cut aside to make a wind row, rather than letting the blade mulch. So cut one direction then swoosh aside on the other. It makes collecting the grass easier as you can shuffle your feet while walking into it to make a big pile which you can gather in your arms and carry away.

[@kerielmore823]

Both you guys are doing a great job and learning from each other.

[@billfeldman3234]

Very Good JOB you two!!!!

[@shadownessy1147]

Hi Carthic, have fun with Tim and I have seen your beautiful lawn!

[@bobzboo]

Well this will definitely be interesting. That’s a lot of grass to cut. Good luck! 🤗🤗🤗~Becka. PS. FAVORITE - you two mowing at the same time going back and forth - too much fun. Before and afters were terrific! Thanks 😊
