She had Always DREAMED of getting a Yard MAKEOVER like on YOUTUBE!

Hello folks, well, have I got a good one for you today. This job came through, and I was asked to go around and do a quote for a complete cleanup and ongoing regular maintenance. This is actually a government housing property and the tenant is a single mother on a disability pension. She finds it quite difficult, if not impossible, to do the yard often enough to keep it nice. She was actually unaware that she was able to get assistance through the government for her yard and was paying a cheap contactor from her own pocket. As you can see, it was a very basic mowing service and not much else. So what I'm going to do, is make her place look nice and come back later for a regular mowing service. She actually said to me that she has always dreamed of getting a garden makeover that she has seen on social media. So sometimes dreams do come true, so never give up. All up, I spent around 17 hours on this job, including 4 trips to the landfill.

FAQ's:

Q: Where are you located?
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: 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 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 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.
