Lawn care vlog #41 Mowing a new yard, tall grass, lawn makeover!!

[@MrGabrielallon]

Lightweight is good and what did I use it for it’s a lawnmower kzbin.infoUgkxTPN04aT-Qdjr_KS3ql7ng8wnU3wwsCqk also recommend Yes it is lightweight so hence not as robust as our old one. But if you take care it does the job really well.

[@Barbaratio]

Love watching tall grass get cut, something about it is just so satisfying. Great Video!

If I won the lotto, I would honestly spend my days mowing peoples grass for free. Something about cutting grass is so soothing

[@clintraley856]

Ok, Forest Gump.

[@leebrown2634]

Aaron Farquhar hell no

[@eterna1ashtwan]

this dude has never cut grass before

[@rordongamsay932]

You have lowkey never mowed a yard in your life have you?

[@peterkamau7738]

This mowing is good

[@sicily6740]

Why do I like to mow and watch mowing videos? In my work it was a rare day when I could actually see any progress. When mowing, progress is clear. Challenges are evident. You know right where you stand.

[@wilson23954]

I always hating mowing section of yard that had no growth, just dust and sparse grass. Could not tell where your last pass was.

[@AL-rm7vm]

I last saw my dad 13 years ago he must still be watching this at the grocery store

[@johnb8956]

😂 Edit: I really hope this didn’t actually happen

[@dmc16336]

NICE!!! The slow motion shots were almost hypnotic. Great before and after!!

[@rodm5830]

i love mowing lawns im only 14 and make good money doing lawns the good thing is you dont need to be rich eather just a push mower and some other stuff

[@robloxeveryday9890]

Drew Angler the other stuff should be a trimmer and blower right

[@hunterhoward8320]

Same

[@allchithow]

@Adair L Some lawn mower now has a function which you don't need to push. I think they call self-propelled.

[@jeffreymuu5451]

Drew Angler Good way to make money when you’re young because not that many people that are in their teens like to do it.

[@thelastdon2246]

You got the right idea 👌 young man. Keep up the good work. I can see a great future ahead. Blessings 🙏

[@chonrubio7277]

Wow man! You can tell that you really love what you do. It's like an art. At 10:42.. that was a nice surprise!

[@Kylehoulihan]

looks perfect to me because I didn't have to do it! GREAT JOB!

[@johnhutson8666]

Looks good. Great job, sir. Have a blessed week

[@antek1084]

like a boss!running into yards like that one can at first almost break your spirit,but when you take your time,put a whole lot of heart and soul into it and after your done stand across the street and look at it from a distance,it's the most satisfying feeling.

[@SilverCymbal]

Really nice work - your videos are great inspiration

[@DrBleck35]

You're an artist. I wish I had your energy and attention to detail.

[@mikespain8655]

Good job. You could have used zero turn for the whole yard. Get a chute blocker, use it when you need it.

[@knightlykin1499]

I loved doing landscaping work. I did aeration, fertilization, sprayed weeds etc. Very physical job, but satisfying, especially when the work starts to pay off and you get to see your customers bright green well trimmed lawn.

[@Seansheep92]

great video. loved the slow motion. keep up the good work

You'd think after all the years I've been doing this that I'd despise watching videos of it and yet it's quite gratifying seeing someone else labor for a change. LoL! Excellent work, brother. Thanks for the entertainment.

[@Something2LookAt]

You bet! Happy to provide. :)

[@daedaebrown]

I felt like I needed to wear eye protection watching this video. I just purchased my first home and Im excited to cut the lawn with my push reel mower. Gotta get my bermuda right knomsayin. My grass is like a foot tall. Peace and love to all!

[@tamaiyoung6078]

Yea he needs some eye protection for sure.

[@tamaiyoung6078]

Love the videos

[@danamelby4090]

Wow the craftsman push mower works pretty well in the long grass! Great job looks very nice!

That slow mo part made this video beyond amazing

[@brianjennings3172]

Well done, looks much better. Very satisfying.

[@MOWTOWN]

Good to see the grass growing like crazy, thick & lush in places. 57K views in 2 days, that's amazing

[@Something2LookAt]

Yea isn't that crazy? I have no idea what's going on. Seems just like my other videos. There's not even any pine cones in this one. lol.

[@MOWTOWN]

4days later and I'm even more amazed lol

[@topfin8441]

The thick tall stuff is crabgrass, a weed.

[@josefantoni3390]

TopFin it’s only a weed if it’s growing in a place you don’t want it...if it’s a majority of your lawn then it’s technically a plant

[@davidjohnson3370]

That's is a lot of grass cant say enough about how much work goes into a yard like that good job I had a few tall ones once you get done it looks good it's a great feeling

[@biggils8894]

I love watching ppl work while I’m lying on the couch. It’s actually soothing and makes me sleepy 💤

[@tumbleweed57]

Looks great. With a little love will be a beautiful yard.

[@imgodzilla6818]

U killed it with the weedeater “Nice” 🔥

[@acereport8939]

My backyard got overgrown when I had to leave my home for renovations. I thought that I was going to need professional equipment to get it under control when I got back but it wasn’t necessary. My Ego battery operated lawnmower cut through all the tall stuff on it’s highest setting without any trouble. I waited a couple days for the clippings to dry out and hit it again at the normal setting and that was it! I’m so glad that I invested in my own equipment, rather than hiring people. Now I can keep a very manicured lawn as my machines are easier to use (I don’t need oil, gas, air filters etc.) and they don’t make so much NOISE. I especially like the headlights on the lawnmower. It doesn’t matter if the sun sets when I’m cutting. I’ll just switch on the headlights which actually make it easier to see where I’ve cut.

[@hermanbottom363]

You need an ole' 2 stroke Lawn Boy. They LOVE that tall grass.

[@ianpurcell7266]

2 stroke lol.no such thing anymore

[@rjskum688]

Beautiful job. Its an art to turn an overgrown yard into a nice clean one.

[@randycline1385]

Here's a tip, do the trimming first. That way the stuff that you cut with the trimmer gets chopped up when you mow.

[@samwishnoski1350]

The slow motion scenes are awesome 👏👍

[@Something2LookAt]

Thanks! I get love and hate on the slow motion. I like them so it's nice to hear the feedback. :)

[@mikesoutfishing]

Your the man Mike! When I weed eat I get covered but you come out of it clean lol

[@Something2LookAt]

Spray away from you Mike!

[@dapperdan3204]

It amazes me how little pride some people have in their homes!

[@susanthompson2278]

I love watching you mow brings some old good mem back

[@jbrewphotos79]

I love your videos there awesome and satisfying

[@jaytay6139]

nice job on the yard man

[@heleenabatts9413]

You obviously take pride in your work. Good job

[@lanec9780]

Love your videos keep posting 👌

[@Something2LookAt]

Thanks!

[@lanec9780]

Something 2LookAt you're welcome

[@renecuevas4128]

Nice job. Excellent,,,,hope u charged accordingly.Be bless honest guy like you make neighborhood look a lot way better,,,,,hope the customer say THANKS

[@Something2LookAt]

I actually did this for the regular price, as the first cutting in a monthly agreement. Still mowing it today. I did film it though, and KZbin is certainly making up for the initial price. :)

[@0Myles0]

Good video. This is why cleanups get expensive! You've got the best, fastest equipment for the job, I'm still guessing you spent about 2 hours on that. Those slow-mow shots were awesome.

[@JesusG90247]

How much did you charge the customer for that job??

[@larryfeeks6620]

It shaped up really well!

[@colthuff3]

Some of this should be in one of those "Most Oddlly Satisfying" videos

[@johns5091]

Sure does look slot nicer than before it was cut

[@aguyandhiscomputer]

Michigan here. I wouldn't care what my lawn looked like if I had a screened-in pool.

[@justmejustine1958]

Greetings from central Florida.

[@Something2LookAt]

Yep!

[@offgriddlifestyle2544]

yes tall grass cutting videos . awesome

[@sunnyday7869]

Good job!!😊 I enjoyed watching!!👍🏼🙂 Time to cook!!👋

[@Ken-dv9uf]

Now that's what I call a "Before & After" shot.....Nice job!!! How's the Great Dane Resto job coming along?

[@CopperCreekCuts]

Ken I bugged him about it a video or two ago. It needs the governor repaired.

[@Ken-dv9uf]

Okay....Thanks

[@Something2LookAt]

I finally just put it in the shop.

[@theandroidguy166]

Something 2LookAt what's that thing called your using around the edges of the grass and inber tween the path

[@CopperCreekCuts]

TheAndroidGuy 16 If you are talking about the beginning of the video, it is an edger. If you are talking about the end of the video, it is a string trimmer.

[@univac7677]

Bet the neighbors were happy to see you come.

[@TheCphughes77]

Love the slow motion shots lol!

[@yupyup1562]

Oddly satisfying to watch. You did great. I didn’t notice anything missed.

[@danbytp]

A weedwhacker,a Craftsman 21" gasoline push mower and a 14 year old son is all you need.

[@paulmalatesta3222]

Great job and video... keep up the good work..

[@hkm_865]

Jeez people really let their yards becomes messes

[@jomama5171]

Only $65?? Can I sub you out?

[@jomama5171]

I'd aim higher than $65 for that first "taming". At a minimum $95 and you'd still make money. He had a ton of edging, weed eating and other sins to fix because of the owner neglect and all of that takes time, gas and wear on your equipment. Not to mention you are having to re-mow & mulch the clippings so in essence you are cutting the same area twice. $40 would be ok for maintenance once you had it beat into submission. I never tie or lower my "initial work" pricing due to the promise of weekly or bi-weekly maintenance. Charge them what it is worth. You have to figure they have skated by for the better part of the season without any kind of work being done. They would have already paid more than $240 if they had been getting regular maintenance this year. The owner can always say one thing or another as to what they want you to do for them in the future. But the reality of their past actions (yard neglect) still stand. Good luck man!

[@JWNLawnCare]

be veeeerrryy careful when quoting initial clean ups. One of my first yards was a massive corner block. I had basically no idea how to price jobs properly and underestimated everything. I charged the lady AU$30 for it and it took both me and my friend just short of 3hrs to complete. Looking back now around 9mths later I wouldn't dare quote any less than AU$155 for that yard, if not more. I was so scared of overquoting that I just went absolute bare minimum everywhere. Thankfully it didn't take long for me to realise that I could charge way more and I now quote far better and am making a very handsome profit compared to my friends working for other companies ;D

[@jomama5171]

When in doubt as what to actually charge for the entire project try this method. Create a list of what you would charge for each individual service as a stand alone bid. Meaning if you had to drive over and only do the edging. Make one column for the labor and a separate column for your trip time. Your formula would be: Service: [$Labor/$Trip] i.e. Mowing/Weed Eating: [$85/$15] And then do this for each of the services. Edging, Pruning, etc Now add them all up, this would be your starting price/max. Now take that same list and add up the labor portions only and include one trip charge. This now becomes your minimum and you never go below it. Plus you never know if cases like this if the homeowner/tenant is facing a potential fine. They might have received a warning letter from the city, their HOA, etc. And they might be under the gun when it comes to getting the yard cleaned up. Also be sure to carefully walk yard jungles like this prior to mowing. Bicycles, kids toys, dog tie out stakes, clotheslines, water hoses, etc. Endless amounts of treasure can be found in these types of adventures!

[@JWNLawnCare]

Very good idea thanks for the tip ;D

[@LawnTips]

Wow that grass is long! Sweet video!

[@BlueYammer]

weed whacking without goggles, you are brave...

[@QuickieHub]

BlueYammer lol

[@CrummyGrow]

Your supposed to where protective classes woops I dont😂

[@Barbaratio]

You're supposed to, I almost got hit in the eye by a rock, left a nasty scratch by my eye brow. Since then, I wear some kind of eye protection.

[@jonathanschultz2472]

he's more safe then me. I do everything only wearing swim trunks because Florida

[@Barbaratio]

Lol, I do it in shorts though.

[@rhdtv2002]

much respect...nice job considering the shape it was in

[@BrianAkaBear]

That man is a SURGEON with that wacker. Even without goggles........

[@dodgdatona]

I'm impressed with the way that Craftsman handled the long grass.

[@ekorruptdead4923]

THIS IS THE MONADOS POWER

[@DueNorthGaming]

Thank god, I'm not the only one 😃

[@Chillalil]

This is a good result!

What a difference you made there. Nice job..

[@Something2LookAt]

Thanks!

[@turdferguson8732]

Great video! I almost came during the edging😂

[@QuickieHub]

Turd Ferguson lmao!

[@Something2LookAt]

Whoa, too much information, lol

[@turdferguson8732]

I have a fever and the only cure is more edging!

[@mattk970]

freakin nasty. TMI. If an edger almost made you do that, man do you need a women, or wait you most likely would not be able to handle a real women.

[@jrec169]

I really enjoy your videos. I find them to be very relaxing and they help my anxiety

[@Something2LookAt]

Great to hear! I suffer from anxiety myself so I can relate.

[@ToothlessThedragon9]

@@Something2LookAt Why is the mutch blocker on the push mower it should be off

[@Something2LookAt]

@@ToothlessThedragon9 Because it's in a narrow area. If it were spraying grass out of the chute, it would be spraying onto the house.

[@clarklloyd4958]

Looks good. I noticed you have a unique weed wacker hold, I've never noticed anyone else hold a weed wacker like you do. I'am going to try it, might have more control. I do like your vids for some strange reason. lol

[@Something2LookAt]

lol, yea I've been told that before.

[@ha1234]

Yeah, I noticed it too. Depends a lot on your height and model of trimmer. I think the most control is with it held by your hip. I'm quite short and I bought a long straight shaft model recently so I'll try the pen grip hold showcased here.

[@sgt_jr3232]

That's fantastic. It's awesome when you get into slow mow.

[@panthers4life839]

I don't know if you do request but can you do a GoPro mount on the mower of you mowing a lawn

[@Something2LookAt]

Yea, a while ago I used to mount the whole tripod on the mower. I'll see what I can do.

[@panthers4life839]

Something 2LookAt thank you

[@Fencearmor]

Wow what a transformation! Great job!

[@AlexTraxxas]

This man sounds like he went through SEVERAL edger blades for this one yard.

[@nowave1465]

When I weed whack I usually do it so the grass flies towards me and not the house. But you're the man you cone out clean!

[@Something2LookAt]

Yea, that's one of my secrets to staying clean. :)

[@Electobat]

It is cutting unevenly an leaving high points even without dealing with long grass. It depends on what you want to achieve, but I could get better job in similar time using strimmer (weed wacker)

[@LongDukDong1]

chimp3376 yeah nobody cares what you can do!

[@hardy2]

Addictive, I watched few of these video videos during CMCO

[@billstmaxx]

pshaaaa thats nothing.. 10 minutes with a stihl weed wacker no problem :)

[@Something2LookAt]

Yea. Always have to be careful. There are many surprises under tall grass.

[@chuckccfd9]

Never could understand why people let their yard like that I have people that want to be on a will call I just can't do that. To hard on equipment

[@Something2LookAt]

It's a rental. I don't know why, but they're always like this.

[@Ginoinny]

Something 2LookAt What did you charge for a job like that?

[@Ginoinny]

Tom Slak There’s no way they’re only paying that! This job was $200 MINIMUM! That’d be on the very low end and CASH only lol.

[@ilike2mow]

Wow that was pretty tall. I find these cleanups very satisfying to watch lol

[@Something2LookAt]

Glad you liked it. :)

[@itzcorbin6655]

Do the video at 2x speed you can thank me later

[@steelers454]

I mow lawns part time and it is great money for sure. I love the technique you use on weed eating the tall grass starting from the top and working down. Never done it that way always hit from the bottom. Will try that for sure. I thought for being as tall as it was it looked pretty good.

[@Something2LookAt]

Yea, that way you don't get long strands lying around and you generally don't have to rake.

[@steelers454]

very true.

[@shakka65]

Nice job but you should wear eye protection

[@Thevacomaticvacuumcorner]

you dida great job lad now that is a clean cut

How much did you charge for this one?

[@Something2LookAt]

It's a monthly agreement. Didn't charge any extra for the initial cut.

[@jeffwilde9057]
