Just loving you guys, new to watching your channel (since yesterday) and have been watching as many episodes as I can. You are both so sweet and work so hard and take such pride in what you do which makes a new subscriber from the UK real happy to watch and learn ! X

[@jackmeeker6194]

WOW! That's a bunch of weedeating, Carl. Great work. I enjoy your videos, and your positive attitudes. You two make a great team.

I was going to ask if anyone lived there? You are too kind, I don’t know who would go and cut that grass! You both did a great job!

[@happysfamilywnc]

laura tonelli Thanks! Yeah they have been clients for 7 years we just didn’t hear from them this year so I figured we weren’t mowing anymore but boy was I wrong. Lol Thanks for watching!

[@FSVT97]

Wow, that lawn was crazy !! I did a crazy job like that last year. Landlord contacted me and said his tenants grass is crazy tall like that. Upon arrival and assessment I told him it's going to be 4X the rate. He needed it cut before the county issued him a citation for tall grass. He paid and said he's adding the bill to his tenants rent.

[@happysfamilywnc]

4X4 Yeah I really don’t like doing tall yards but it is nice to see what a difference the after looks like and it was a little our fault so I felt bad. Thanks for watching!

[@mariannelooney9369]

Usually when there's that much overgrowth, the grass underneath after being mowed will be brown. This grass was green as it can be 😎

What a transformation.Just curious as to how long it took to you to get everything done? ( in real time )

[@chrisluna6058]

Grate video may God bless you. I had a question. What kind of mower, weeder and blower are u using

[@happysfamilywnc]

I can’t remember what blower we had at the time but definitely a Stihl the weed eater was a 91r and the mower was our 22 toro because that’s all we could get into the yard.

[@cecesheart32]

This was a great job for just a weed eater and lawn mower....

[@happysfamilywnc]

Thank you and thanks for watching!

[@somethingelseoutdoors1831]

I am 12 with a wanna be business and one of my yards is like this and it takes me 2 hours to mow it and it is only an acre

[@albierossouw3809]

What happens to the clippings of the grass you cut do you pick it up afterwards?

[@happysfamilywnc]

No we do our best to mulch them up. If it’s a client with a really nice lawn that we get behind on we would bag it if needed to be or we will blow any excess grass so it’s not sitting on the grass. Thanks for watching!

[@bigtexas7580]

Put one of those Darwin's Grip bars on your weedwacker and your back will certainly thank you for it. Especially on jobs like this where you have to swing that trimmer so wide.

[@wayneessar7489]

The bike bar models with the harness to the side clip, work very well on big work too because the clip holds the trimmers weight on both your shoulders and you can hold the handles lightly and swing it back and forth. I don't know why they are popular in the rest of the world but not in the US?

[@happysfamilywnc]

I thought about it but people have said it made it difficult to edge but it won't hurt to try. Thanks for watching!

[@bigtexas7580]

Yeah I haven't tried edging with mine yet, I have a stick edger that I edge with and with that darwin grip on it too and it's like a walk in the park.

[@karlcox9199]

I ordered me a Darwin grip

[@bigtexas7580]

@@karlcox9199 Yeah man, they're great. I haven't tried it on my weedeater to use the weedeater to edge but I have a stick edger and this grip is fabulous on it. It's good for weedeaters too but I don't know how it will be with the weedeater flipped upside down or on it's side to edge with the weedeater.

[@scragmanw]

Maybe you didn’t contact this person so you guys are partly to blame but they surely could have called you before the lawn got to this point. Carl, great job with that trimmer. I’d have gone foreword in a yard that overgrown because I have an aversion to snakes. I still say you guys are an awesome team!

[@happysfamilywnc]

Yeah it is a little bit our fault but you are right they could have called a moth into the season not 2.5 months in. Thanks for watching!

[@lcmb25]

Jeff Williams Normally we would charge about 200 to 250 for that but they were clients for a long time and we just figured they didn’t need us anymore because they never contacted us to start this season. So when they finally did we felt bad because they were selling the house and it had not been mowed anyway we charged them I think around 150 but it didn’t take that long to get done.
