  • This courtyard was in very poor condition and looked like it hadn't been touched for years! It needed a good cleanup and I even threw in a free power wash just to finish it all off and test out my new pressure washer. Both my employees are on holidays for this one.

    _______________________________________________
    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 to be 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.

    As I watch my 94 year old neighbor walk out on her walker to the shed and come out with her mower . I ask her if she needs help and it's the weeding I to help her with. She's amazing. She'll get out and walk about and pick up trash with her grabber stick . Great Lady. 🙏🏼🌹🙏🏼

    Looks like his neighbors need a make over on the other side of their fences too. I would have cut it off the top of the fence and removed it all from all the fencing. It destroys wood to let these plants run amok.

There are also round surface cleaner attachments that make the job quicker, and you don't see the lines left with just the wand. Always make sure attachments are compatible with your psi. Excellent outcome! Happy New Year.
