Main water line shouldn't be above ground like especially since it's PVC. You're a stand up guy Al and you're doing a great job. This world could use more people like you.
Itâs different in Florida. You donât have to bury the lines so deep because itâs not freezing cold there. It definitely should be at least below the ground so this kind of stuff doesnât happen though.
The part that concerned me was that the pipe was rotating so easily ... I would be concerned about a leak at where it was rotating
You are wrong buddy
@@Frank-mi3sf Shut up
@markrapacki5855 So what do they use in your area? Down here in the south it's really a common thing. Little to no frost during the winter means it doesn't have to be buried too deep. PVC, non DWV, is rated to well above anything you should be seeing from the municipal supply. There's no need for copper or PEX supply lines. Galvanized and lead are long dead.
I like how the owner said "It's my fault, I shouldn't have let it get so overgrown" you know you are dealing with nice people.
But she let him stress and pay I hate people like that users! And they always fat and lazy like guy with new door!
Dude even the property owner was super understanding. Definitely nice people!
Al has to go way beyond just mowing, they need trees cut down to, that should not be up to Al to do that
You would have thought that somebody would have marked that. There have been quite a few other properties with the same type of water lines I'm just surprised with the over grown lawns he does that he hasn't hit any before.
@@almcd2500I just spent $450 to clean out a small group of wondering palms. It was a nightmare. It grows quick and my husband couldnât keep up with it.
You know I never comment on videos, but this gentleman is just amazing. Such a great heart. We really need more people like Al in this world. We all should try to be more like him. Great inspiration.
Thank you for breaking your habits of never commenting on videos

I wholeheartedly agree đ đđđ
Amen ..me too đ
I canât believe this is the first time youâve hit something in all these overgrown yards. Good of you to get it fixed. Love your videos!
I commend your tenacity and commitment to that lady. That yard was so overgrown I expected lions, tigers and bears to walk out. I applaud you.
đ§đȘ , oui et c'est bien souvent le cas , les propriĂ©taires dĂ©sertent totalement les biens qu'ils ont achetĂ© , Ă moins que la personne qui loue l'endroit aie la charge de nettoyer la petite propriĂ©tĂ© .
C'est une chose qui se fait couramment chez nous , en Europe ou en Belgique ,
Moyennant quelques euros , .
J'avais bien compris que cette personne venait en aide , Ă d'autres personnes qui avaient probablement des problĂšmes d'ordre financier ou autre .
Tout le monde ne peut pas ĂȘtre au courant de ce que les herbes et les buissons , cachent , sauf le propriĂ©taire .
Je pense peut-ĂȘtre aussi , il faut le dire que c'est peut-ĂȘtre un oubli de la dame qui a vu son jardin se faire envahir par les mauvaises herbes , et a complĂštement oubliĂ© qu'il y avait un tuyau dessous .
Helping people is such a complicated business sometimes cause they won't ask even though they need it and you have to be 100% sure you're not pushing it onto them. A bit like walking a tightrope sometimes.
If their not going to run that pipe closer to the foundation, they should have to put a covering over it, or a marker around it, to keep people from hitting it. Your trying to help people for free mowing their jungle. It shouldn't involve home repairs too. I've done that job it can be a challenge. đto you.
Well done what a good work you have done God bless you
BEST COMMENT EVER!! LIONS, TIGERS AND BEARS OH MY!! Lol
Considering THE SISTER asked for your help⊠and youâre doing this for FREE⊠I commend you for handling this situation like a true professional. Crap happens and itâs not your fault the pipe was disguised in that mess of a yard. KEEP UP THE GOOD WORK!!! đȘđŒ
agreed! In addition it would have been good if the homeowner had made him aware of the pipe there on the side of the house. They must have known it was there!
@@KRoseB Well, considering it looked like they never even looked at their own yard (see that back door covered in vines?), it doesn't surprise me they would totally forget about the water pipe!
Yeah I've come across this kind of crap, mowing people's yards and compounds- many times. It's just as well we have our own water pipes to take care of on a regular basis. Where I come from, water pipes need to be 18 inches underground, before the Water Authority connects you to a service main. But over time, the pipes surface, lol...
All the above is true but I found it wise to ask up front, where are all your essential services located. Adding bright colour flagging then helps avoid any issues.
While sobbing: "I'm a single woman just trying to survive". She never was rude or aggressive. THE SISTER you mention tried to understand the situation, she wasn't rude, she asked what this all would cost her.
Please calm down and have a nice day.
I just watched this video from a year ago. I am absolutely amazed at your generosity of what you do for all the people that you help with their lawns. Iâm even more amazed at when anything happens, you always except the expense of repairs. You must really LOVE your work because your transformations are incredible. Itâs like watching a symphony. Youâre the conductor and all you yard tools are the instruments making your music. God bless you Mr. Bladez
That was really sweetly and thoughtfully expressed.
Why are you so amazed that he accepts the responsibility when he causes the damage even though he is trying very hard to help the recipient. Sometimes accidents happen.
Love your analogy!!
â
Love your likening his work to symphony. It is a very apt comparison. Thanks.
I normally avoid writing anything on anyone's page but I could not resist this time. You are amazing! I am amazed that you do not let those things, like a broken glass in the door and water pipe, stop you from continuing the good that you do. I also like the fact that you keep everything on the positive side of things. You never say anything negative about the people who could cut their lawns and do not. Thank you for your amazing work.
Spirit of love
most tradespeople would runaway with the pipe problem!!! not to say frick out and blame a billion of execuses and nasty words!... Bang BLADEZ you are the very very best in gratituted and kindness regardless of service
1.Thank you for doing the lawn 2.You owned up to the pipe problem
3.You fixed it out of your own pocket
4.You asked for and got assistence.
5.A man of integrity! Thank you for being a great example for us to emulate!
5.You 6.You 7.You
@@coldfire39 He's the one who hit,busted,and fixed it.There are some who would have ran from it or blamed someone else.He is a man to be respected.
@@coldfire39 YAHHOO. YOU CAN READ!!?? REET REET REET!!??????? ONE MORE FOR YA !!???
@@danbytp yep. structurally, it shouldnt have been out there, unprotected. BUT he took care of it
@@howiepol1655 Yes ,I agree.And he owned up to to it,good man.
This is the hardest part of helping people. Dealing with their dissatisfaction at one thing or another. It can be so disgusting and discouraging. Keep at it Al you are doing great work!
Amen
If the yard was not in such an overgrown condition, it would have been spotted. This is not your fault!
There should be some sort off protective casing over the pipe, anyhoo it was inevitable, but you fixed it where as the next person might not. Keep up the great work, by the way where is your buddy that was helping you, just asking.đđ
respect bro good work
What a transformation. Well done on handling the mishap so well. Thank you for making this world a better place.
Great job. It was nice to see someone pitched in and helped you work on this yard, hardly ever see enough of that. You are good people, Al, we need more like you in this messed up world.
This man is in his own lane, when it comes to such kindness & generosity!
For him to absorb this cost is such a high class gesture!
I hope that he has a pay off for this youtube video brings him more subscribers, to offset this cost.
I donât want to say anything unkind; but the homeowner would know ~ this pipe.
Itâs not like it was ever⊠underground.
I bet her air-conditioner runs a lot better without that vine covering the heat exchanger. You're saving her a lot of energy too. â€ïž
Stuff happens and considering she hasnât bothered to have her yard mowed for sooooo long itâs no wonder you couldnât see that pipeđ§đ
You always do a good job even when you do it for them freeđđŒđđđŠđș
Facts
OMG...WHY CAN PEOPLE LIVE LIKE THAT. NOT CAREING FOR THERE YARD?
A simple cheap flag would help. You can buy a pack for minimal cost.
AMEN!!!!!!
@@diannagray5711 you meant Caring?!!!
Sooo sad about the water line and you having to repair it. And taking total responsibility for it! You're a good man with a big giant heart. I found this site by accident, and I love watching your videos.
Blessings to you for what you do and the responsibility you took and honored the homeowner!
This is the first video I have watched of this guy, and I instantly have a ton of respect for him. What a good good decent hard working individual. Just the sheer amount of time consuming, hard laborious work is unreal, and to do it all by himself, at no charge, just to help someone else, just blows my mind. And the results are an incredible looking transformation. I sincerely wish him all the best success in life. Well done my man.
I asked God to bless this man he does such a good job my all of his needs to be met in Jesus Christ name amen
It makes my heart happy to see what just love for others that their own families won't do or can't do thank you so much
Why charge when you can post to CZcams and make 1000 x the money off one yard
The fact that something like this hasnât happened before now is pretty impressive. No matter how careful you are, especially in the tall grass you deal with, stuff happens. Youâre doing a good job, Al!
You worked your behind off on that yard WOW
Which is why Al needs to start making people sign a contract that he is not responsible for unforeseen damages. Someone could financially ruin Al. People are way too lawsuit happy these days.
@@plutosrealm4594 - Nahhh. This venture is two fold; He makes tons of money on YouBoob, and he helps people..
Capitalist Karma at its best... Full circle
I second this
easy cheap pvc fix don't sweat it your doing great work surprised you don't run into worse doing these neglected yards. thumbs up dude
O Man !! Your attitude handling that nightmare đą burstpipe is unbelievable đź Your self control and reassurance to the homeowner lifted her spirit and cool is that. Love you Man. You give so much inspiration to so many people and it was all worth it in the end.
I really like how Al deasls with things. He is really a cool character. He has fantastic people skills. Seems like a really nice guy. I wish him continued success.
Good job Al ....
Absolutely keep doing your work!
@@jayred8117 3po
If I was a neighbor to any of these houses that he cuts grass in. I would be over there thanking him for what he is doing. It eliminates rats, mosquitoes and snakes in everyone else's yard. Plus bring him a cold glass of homemade ice tea. Yard looks great đ
I'd be your neighbor any day!
Helps but nothing eliminates those things lol
A nice apple pie or muffins would be very nice thank you for him , i am sure!
Let the Church and The Choir Say Amen to that Gospel Truth!!!
Definitely hardout
Aww Al, so sorry for everything you had to go through on this property! Itâs not fair the trouble you had to go through while being such a blessing to a neighbor and society! Bless you and may your business grow and your success in every venture. What an amazing example you are to us all. Love and hugs to you!â€
Youâre a great guy Al! Bless you for what you do for people.
Al... Accidents happen brother. We all have them. Just keep up the spirit of the channel. Thanks for sharing
You sir are exactly the kind of person that I want my children to grow to become. Youâre a standout guy. Keep up the good work.

To be an honest, humble, hard-working, loving Christian.
@You Tube LLC wow...prideful, arrogant, ignorant human being. You need to do some serious self reflection
I couldn't agree more
*This is nice. But I can see able-bodied people just waiting for someone like this to happen along and let them fix their problems. I mean, they preferred to ignore their surroundings for... did she say 2 years? Really?!* What does the inside of the house look like?
Great job Al! I donât know why anyone would rent a home and canât take care of a yard!!You are such a blessing!!
Another job well done. You inspire so many people to do good it makes my heart happy. You are a man of integrity. Thank you Chris for jumping in and helping. Love you guys.
When you uncovered the ac, I couldnât believe it. Then when I saw the dryer vent, I thought how blessed they didnât have a fire. You did way more than cut the lawn and make it look fabulous. Thank you!
Turned out absolutely amazing! That water pipe was bound to break sticking out like that, from tripping on or a mower...you probably fixed it back better than it was. They should put landscaping stones around it to prevent future accidents. You do wonderful work! Thank you for what you do! âđđ
Great job, God bless you for all you do for others.
On my vacation property, after Hurricane Michael in Florida, I drove cuts of rebar, left 2' above into the ground where old stumps where and a couple holes, put orange protective caps on them, and tied several plastic orange tape streamers, so my yard guy when I went back north at my main home in Maryland, would know exactly areas to be careful around.
It could at least have had a 5 gallon bucket over it.
I love this young man for what he's doing that's a lot of work
Couldn't agree more. Thanks for all the help you give everyone. Wish you well
. Take care.đ
Jesus that was seriously overgrown. You dealt with the burst pipe issue really well, kept positive as usual. Youâre fabulous đ
That's not Jesus ,he is Al...
Please don't use His name like that.
@@museluvr đłâđ
I bet the neighbors were real grateful for your services! Makes their place look better as well. very nice job!
I'm surprised that the neighborhood hadn't called the council on her for letting it get so overgrown .
This is how I choose to look at almost all of the cleanups Al does, that he is doing it as a kindness to all the neighbors who have to live next to or across the street from the neglected properties
Al, you are such a hard worker. These people you help, are very fortunate indeed. Love your channel â€ïž
Your patience with this woman is amazing. You are truly one of a kind.
The water main was a setback but thanks to your brother-in-law for coming to the rescue. Thanks to Chris for helping with this job. And yes we all see AP in the background with his drone shots. Keep up the good work fellas. đđŸđđŸđȘđŸ
Wow!!! A literal JUNGLE...and you turned it into a PARKđ The way you handled the water pipe situation was extremely kind and generous...thank you.
You are a great guy!
I just watched this video from a year ago. I'm working my way through your videos from oldest to newest. I love that you took responsibility and were able to fix it. I also loved how gracious the homeowner was. She could've came out of her car screaming like a banshee...keep the videos coming Al!â€đșđž
Awesome work you are doing for people Al. You have a heart of gold, keep letting it shine so others know there are great people in the work and they can pass it forward in different ways of their talents and gifts.đ
Don't let this discourage you, we all have mishaps, and make mistakes. You're an incredible young man, and the world needs more young people like you, God bless you! đđđŻâ„ïž
No good deed goes unpunished. Awesome how you took full responsibility, called the homeowner/renter, made no excuses and fixed the problem. Even said, âIâll pay you for your break timeâ Imagine if everyone in the world had this type of character. It would be a different world for sure! Thank you Al for sharing this video showing us how to handle issues as they come up! Great job!
amen

That's the first thought I had, could she have had a more ungrateful attitude? He was so humble and helpful. Amazing integrity.
Channel pays him. Instead of direct customer. Took awhile to get the channel viewers, so youtube monetized this. He is ABSOLUTELY GETTING PAID......ITS NICE FOR THE RENTER. He gets paid.....it is not just free out of his pocket.
@@rogerringold616 boy, oh boy Roger, thank you so much for explaining this. None of us knew how CZcams works until your comment đ€Ł
Iâve watched many videos of guys cleaning yards, and by far you are the cleanest, most conscientious, hardest worker. Kudos to you! đź youâre also very friendly and truthful. What a great guy!
Yeah Al, yours was the 1st I saw, then 9thers ad well but like yours best. Kudo young man. You will walk with your hand in your peckets right into heaven one day. That was my dad's sating about a good man like you.
Greetings from South Africa.
I agree 100%
You're a very good, honest man and human. Not every worker is willing to take responsibility let alone pay for their mistakes.
More everyone should be like you, the world would be an absolutely beautiful placeâ€
Love the way you handled the accident Al, and still carry on. Big hats off to you from the UK, keep up the good work đŻđđ
I absolutely love your positive outlook and attitude. You Rock Al.
Thank you!!
Ya. You are inspiring and a positive role model.
You have no idea how rare it is for a person to own their mistakes and fix it. Particularly when ultimately it wasnât your fault. You are an honorable man. This is an old video but it would have been a perfect opportunity for you to set up a donation system so all us watchers could pitch in and help pay for the new parts. Itâs okay for you to ask for help too!
It's an amazingly wonderful job you guys do for these people. Do you ever go back and see if people at least tried to keep the yards in good shape?
You inspired me, I recently retired and what your doing is just wonderful, I will purchase some more equipment and start helping people out that cannot afford a massive cleanup especially the older folks. Thank you for inspiring me.
I hope you can achieve this.
Thatâs so sweet of you. I hope you get your equipment so you can help people in need. May God bless you, keep you safe, healthy and happy. â€ïž
Get insurance for shit like this. Imagine if that was a gas line and not a water line.
But be prepared to be let down from time to time. There's a house I always pass that has a beautiful back deck but is so overgrown with vines and bushes, you never see anybody on it. Last spring I decided I'd get a buddy and we would help clean it up, there's a woman who lives there, maybe 45-50, we spoke to her and then got to work. Took more than half a day to get it back to where it should be, looked great honestly, she came out after we got done to show her..... she looked up and down, side to side but the first words out of her mouth were: "Oh you didn't fix the cracks in the sidewalk, I thought you would fix the concrete(fully functional just had several cracks throughout from age) . It had to be 4 or 5 minutes she spent talking about the sidewalk and how it "could" look before she mentioned anything about the deck. Kind of annoyed me a little but no biggie, we didn't really do it for the pat on the back, we liked it, she liked it, job well done... We were loading everything back up and she walked over to truck and said, I usually get home from church around 1pm so anytime after will be good. Be good, good for what I asked, to work on the sidewalk she said.
That kinda ticked me off and completely caught me off guard, it actually stayed with me for a week or two. We did all that free work and her response was do more. And this was the first time I'd ever done something like this for a stranger. I know not everybody is like that but it ticked me off so much I haven't even attempted to do something like it again ever since.
thats awesome!
Wow huge props to the woman who lived there "it's my fault for letting it get this overgrown, I haven't gone back there in two years" everyone involved tried to take their fair share of ownership. Beautiful.
Exactly! This is what the world is missing, accountability.
I don't know, I thought there was going to be a problem when the big fatter nastier older sister said, "NOW WHAT'S THIS GONNA COST ME!!!" They call him for help and that's the attitude you get? I have a feeling I know why he didn't show them in their appreciation at the end, because they got nasty and ungrateful.
Except the landlord, she's renting the place.
I almost cried when she said that it was her fault⊠hasnât been back there for two years⊠having all the overgrowth must have been overwhelming for her. You change peoples livelihood!! Not to mention your kindness & generosity. Well done sir!!
@@jessechristian8665 Rude. There's absolutely no need to bring her appearance into it. She also wasn't being "nasty" and didn't have an "attitidue." Did you even watch further before commenting? Jfc some people.
You are an inspiration to all. That lady was so excited. It made me think what a blessing you are. And honest. Love your videos
Great job. And the way you handled the pipe issue shows integrity and high sense of responsibility. God bless you.
This video came up on my feed, I gave it a look an was awe struck and a new subscriber. No human would have taken on this challenge, no human would have done this transformation for free, no human would have done as much as you did, I say this because you're not human, you're an angel amongst humans. Great work, great video!
Unless you make good money on youtube.
Where does all the vegetation go? Do you remove to a recycle place?
Sir.. you didn't mow their lawn, you landscaped their forest. Love ya to death, much respect.
Amen.
A new sub of your channel, but your kindness and work ethic amazing me. I keep telling my grandchildren that there are kind hearted people left in this world. If one of the kids turned out to be the kind thoughtful person like you the world would be a much better place. Keep up the good work and thankful kind hearted people will never forget you. You have a gift, keep sharing it with the world. đ
I don't know why, but i can't stop watching these videos!! I enjoy watching the transformation! You do great work Al!
That was one tough yard.....you are a pro and an asset to America ! My respect and hats off for what you do !âđđâđđșđžđșđžđșđž
1 thing I have to say Al, you going through and picking up thing's, to make it look neater, is a plus. I've seen other's who have an attitude about picking up trash, or like branches. Regardless of the little disaster, your a good man. Honesty is the best policy.
Your honesty in owning up to the damage and making it right are admirable. Well done!
You put a lot of work into this one with the trees and vines. I have stuff like that in my yard and it really helps me to watch you cut it because it teaches me how to better care for my high maintenance yard. Awesome job. Sorry about the pipe and the set back, it really shouldn't be like that but you handled it so well. You're the man!
She had a yard that was overflowing with growth from every view & did not know herself that she had a pipe and inform you
that's on her & your a stand up man for still taking care of it all. You stay blessed
"No good deed goes unpunished", "The road to Hell is paved with good intention". This guy did an awesome job. It's harder than it looks. He fixed the ladies pipe, (took responsibility). Plus it's a rental, not sure why the landlord doesn't keep it kept up? But it's, ALL FOR FREE. Have some grace and civility for crying out loud. Thank you Everyone for your input.

Most landlords make property maintenance the responsibility of the tenant. And he's in florida, most landlords are a property management company hired by the owner that lives out of state. As long as the rent is paid the company doesn't care about anything else and the owner isn't around to see the property.

Why should they? Often times a yard is yours to be dealt with. If someone is renting and can't or won't do their part of being a tenet then they need to move somewhere with less maintenance.
I agree the landlord should have stepped u. Maybe the lease says the tenants responsibility to maintain the yard. Thatâs what my lease says
You are a wonderful person.
Each town could use people like you. Looks like you are in Florida or close by. Iâm from Kansas and I wish I were young enough to do this for others. Every since Iâve been watching you, Iâve tried to think of some duty I could do for others that could use my help. Physically is hard as I am 70 but your joy of helping others is wearing off on to me. â€
I could really tell how nervous and upset you were when you hit that pipe. You had the same reaction I would have had. Of course you are doing something I cannot do. Thank you for continuing to post your videos and for the enjoyment they give me. Even when you do hit a pipe by accident.
Great example of catching a mistake and taking responsibility. Itâs easy to show all the great results and satisfied customers. Everyone hits speed bumps. How you deal with them is what shows true character. As a someone who would love to get into the lawn care business, I look at your channel as a model for the right way to do things. Keep up the great work, brother!
You have a big heart brother. The owners still could've considered helping out - if anything was spent fixing the pipes, since the visibility of the pipes wasn't your problem. Anyways, we need more people like you. Love your Work brother. Keep it up! âđŸâ€ïž
the repair on that water line was maybe 20 bucks,,a couple elbows and some pipe glue...it's not that expensive..and as a former lanscape owner i can tell you this..it's never the customers fault if you run over something..i have replaced about 100 irrigation heads over the years..(that's sprinklers for the lawn in case you don't know what i'm talking about)...that's why businesses are required to have insurance..this is one of those things that got over looked when he did his yard walk through..not a big deal at all really...just a crap happens kinda thing
@@janeames1513 I understand where you're coming from. And I hate that phrase "The customer is always right.." lol But still, $20 from the house owner is nothing compare to what she would have paid for that massive lawn job she got for FREE (you know what I mean? Lol). Take care of people that take care of you and she should've considered that.
@@tonezk22 I'm pretty sure in the video she offered to pay for it but Al told her no he would take care of it himself. đ€đ
This is why I don't like letting people "help" because if something gets broke sometimes the owner is expected to pay for it even though the "help" did it.
@@angels2whisper2 that's what I was saying.(His heart is too big) He felt so bad that he mentioned it after almost every sentence that he was gonna take care of it.
†I am 64 years old and live watching your videos. You are a very upstanding and caring young man. Be careful and keep on missingđâ€â€
So nice of your Brother-in-law to come help you out; I absolutely love your attitude and calm demeanor. When our Yardman broke our Gate, they just left it broken. They didn't offer to fix it, no nothing. We didn't have time to fix it because of our job schedule. Our neighbor was nice enough to fix it. So nice of your friend Chris to help you with the yard. Awesome job!
Great Job Al. Never in a million years did I thinks I'd be subscribed to a channel that mows overgrown lawns. But here I am, enjoying the transformations you do. Love your Channel and the Amazing After Shots of the yards you do! Keep up the great work đ đ đȘ đ đ xoxo đ
Me too, Joyce Trotter, well said!
Where's your helper, Al?
I love how you don't give up and keep on going, despite setbacks. Great job!
Hello Teresa how are you doing
So glad you were able to make the repair to the water line, and keep the repair costs low. I guess itâs normal in Florida to run the water line like that something that would never workout here in the Garden state. Keep on spreading the love â€ïž one yard at a time.
You're a very special, honest person. That's why I watch your videos to help you and help others. đ€
How you guys havenât been given the key to your cities yet for your volunteer services in the community is crazy to me!
Well Said đđ
How you handled this situation shows how much you walk as a true man of integrity. Well done!đđ»
Wow! What an amazing transformation! You do SO much to help other people! Most young people want BIG bucks for small jobs! I live in a city in a northern town and the word âfreeâ was forgotten here long ago! I watch you do good deeds in your state each week, so as long as there are young caring people like you, maybe thereâs still hope for our country! At least one week a month you should just rest on your day off, now that the weather is super hot. Take care and God bless you!
You are an outstanding person! You are so kind and polite. I subscribed to your channel and just absolutely think youâre the âcats meow â as some of us older folks say. Blessings always!!! Not to merry you do such a fantastic job. I keep expecting a boa constrictor, python, coral snake, etc or an alligator to come out of these yards!!!
Al, you handled this situation very professionally and in a kind manner. The clients should all be thankful and grateful you gave them this service for free. I think you should end your contact with the client by telling them to "pay it forward". May God bless you and keep you healthy so you can continue doing your work and provide for your family. Thanks for all you do.
you are 100%correct al is being taken for a sucker
Nice repair and very kind of you to do this huge work job for free. Thank you for sharing your journey.â€â€â€
Hey Chris, thanks so much for the help!!!!â€đđ»đđ»đđ»đđ»đâ
Beautiful transformation. Hopefully she can get someone to do a biweekly or monthly mowing from now on. Love that sisters are looking out for each other. I have never seen a main water pipe ABOVE ground. Who would have expected that???? You rock Al!đș
The water line connections should not move freely. That tells me that the lines are old and the glue failed over the years. You just happened to bump it enough to knock the connection apart.
Love how you handled the situation! Keep up the good work! đ
Was kinda thinking the same thing about possible weak/old/badly installed original glue. Perhaps this was a blessing in disguise, that this got resolved now before the homeowner had a mess later down the road.
No... what he hit was the homes inbuilt ac unit drain pipe ( a lot of your homes from the 90s-07) in Florida had this massive industrial sized AC units built into the homes and they drain a lot of water out of them due to the humidity.
We had one built into our house and we did measure out how much water it would drain out and we averaged about 8 gallons depending if it was just a normal day or storms coming in
But a lot of people drain them straight into the drains or out into canals which is why you never really see "outside AC units" in Florida
Waterlines ought to be UNDERGROUND. So they donât get broken.
@@Artes202 Yeah, also don't understand what Im seeing, near all houses with all sorts of pipes poking from the ground, what kind of job is that :D
@@MrMakintos a lot of us that live in Florida have condensation drain pipes that run above ground. Not a pipe that we bury. Pipes are from hot water tank overflows, dehumidifiers, air conditioners. It depends the age of the house or the local community if the pipes are exposed or connected to a main drain.
You are one of the most kind, giving, compassionate human beings on this earth! You were willing to pay the lady for her lunch break? It wasn't your fault,You fixed the pipe. Just imagine if she had hired and paid someone to cut her yard what the outcome would be. The lawn maintenance person would've told her to hire a plumber and claim it wasn't his responsibility. You are a blessing to so many people and even to those of us who love to watch you. I've been binge watching your videos for the past two days.đ I will be donating money to help your charity.God bless you brother.
It is soooooo amazing to see before and after. My dad died when I was 15 and he had a lot of bushes and flowers and since my mother worked to support us guess who had to the yard!!! So I know it is a lot of work so I enjoy watching you go beyond. God bless you and your family. â€â€â€
What an amazing transformation. You are such a genuinely lovely person.
Iâve just come across your channel and I find it so relaxing to watch đ
I feel your pain brother. No good deed goes unpunished lol. I have this sort of thing happen to me all the time. I'm like you and I go way far out of my way to help everyone I possibly can and those in my small community knows this and they take advantage of it as much as they can. I don't mind. I love it and always will. But it's frustrating sometimes when it seems to never end. Keep up the great work and keep being the good soul you are.
Great video. If you damaged my water pipe whilst attending to my yard I'd certainly harbour no grudges or ill feelings since you were doing me a favour in the first place. Great work by the way.
Bless you! You are doing a great job. Don't let this problem get you down. I love watching all your videos and your heart †is in the right place!
†Thanks for all you do for those that need so much help. Your kindness reaches so many. Much love to you. đđđ
Those ladies are going to remember the professional way you handled the situation long after you are done. You did a terrific job,that yard was a mess.đ
You're a good man Al BLADZ! Many Blessings for you and yours.
I wish there were more people who could help others who don't have machines to clear and clean places like this guy tackles.
Where to start he just gets in there not many like him about.
You really work hard and help people. I love what you do.
As an 80 year old that is now having health problems, I can really appreciate what you do.
I feel so bad for him with the busted water pipe.
In reality, He should have weed whacked that area first and would have discovered the pipe. That way all the weed whack scraps could have been mulched with the mower. It was his own lack of planning.
Yes he is doing a wonderful job it's really nice of him I hope ur health problems get better God bless you!
@@lauranminney7793 Everyone makes mistakes, you can't predict everything. He even said this is the first time something like this ever happened after years of cutting grass so i'm sure he learned from this.
@@lauranminney7793 Yeh because everybody definately weedeats first???no, no they don't
@@lauranminney7793 No the owners should have told him about the pipe.......
Wow what a HUGE improvement! And you handled the leak like a professional. Lots of good vibes to you Al, we all love and appreciate you out here! đđ
Everybody make a mistake you told the lady that you will take care of it and you kept your words, may God continue to bless you and your family Al Bladez you do8ng a good job helping people that's what it all about, SHOWING LOVE EVERYWHERE YOU GO.â€đ
Al, you are the best of the best the kind soul you r and we need a lot more people like you. God bless you I wish that you could get some major sponsors cause you sure do deserve it. Your kindness is priceless and thank you for your videos.
Dude, you killed it!! Hey, mistakes happen and you owned up to it. You are a man of integrity and honesty. This is why great things will be bestowed upon you!! I'm a fan of your hard work and of you as a fantastic human. Many blessings to you and your family. đđđ€
Absolutely!
Without any doubt!! You are an honest person âŁïž You will be blessed! I love watching how you are so thorough!
Everyone has mishaps and since the woman didn't mow the garden, you didn't know it was there. At least you were able to fix it and having a phone certainly helps. Keep up the good work from your fan in the UK đŹđ§
God blessed you always.watching from Singapore.
You are always so diligent about checking yards for any obstacles.
Thank you for what you do. Helping anyone you can. I used to do this for elderly when I was younger, with no charge. It shocks me how neighbors dont help each other. God bless you
