- Neighbor pays to have this eyesore cleaned up because it makes the neighborhood look unkempt and he's in the process of putting his home for sale. This overgrown lawn will be removed from over the sidewalk to make it more presentable.

Great videos, no music , no clowning, just nice work a little instruction! Others could learn a lot from you on doing the videos, thank you !!
A job that was hard and a flat shovel might have helped get that grass and dirt up. thank you for sharing with us. Great job.
You are correct, but I wasn't prepared to do this today, thanks!
Run. The edger first then grab the hula hoe to cut it loose. Sometimes it will come off in one long piece nice work jonny.
We did a corner lot the other day that was that bad, the dirt was about 4 inches thick, it took an hour and a half to get it all cleaned up. Nice work as always.
This is the standard that all lawn care companies should follow! Excellent work and pride of workmanship.
This was just a wonderful video, when you shared with us, in time lapse format. Bless you for showing us in real time. Many thanks again, Johnny. You are the undoubted KING #1 🌟🌟🌟
You are so welcome

Looks great!! Now all it needs is a good power washer over the sidewalk !!🤗😊
Yes it does, thanks!
I'm glad you showed this in real times, many times we don't realize how much work is entailed for things that "look" simple.
I love how organized your trailer is…makes it so much easier to work more efficiently. Also my neighbor got a battery powered ryobi push mower. I’m not sure I’m sold on it yet but so much easier than dealing with gas and oil.
I would have drove to the site to give you a long handled flat shovel, made my back hurt watching you work so hard. Great job as usual!
I wasn't prepared to do this today. It was spare of the moment request, thanks!
Obviously you weren't a boy scout!
Anyone notice, that's the 2nd time that black car has gone by? Wonder what the people in the house thought of the sidewalk after job done. I'd be happy if a neighbor was nice enough to do for me. sometimes elderly people just can't keep up with things like this as they age, simple as it might be. Excellent job by the way!
That was some serious overgrowth. Great job.
By golly there was a sidewalk there after all!😁
Great video!👍🇺🇸
Thanks!
Man what a difference a good edge makes. Great job and video.
Glad you liked it!
You did a great job, getting that sidewalk,& driveway looking good Johnny. It didn’t look easy, but you got it done. Those neighbors were very fortunate to have you. Bet it never looked that good. 👍🏾 Well done Johnny.💯❤️💜🙋🏽♀️✝️🙏🏾🇺🇸
Thanks 👍
Something SO RELAXING about curbs and edges getting done up after a bunch of overgrowth. I see so many curbs etc around where I live with overgrowth and I so bad want to go back and clean it up.
That's some amazing, hard, and back breaking work you did there. I just find it amazing that you was able to do that on one battery per piece of equipment and the edger seemed like it could have did 10 more jobs just like it. I'm really blown away by how amazing you are. It's just too bad people don't care about the property they live in. I wouldn't be surprised if that was a rent house because I have one across a street that looks just as bad.
In the past years I have done my neighborhood yard and I'm paralyzed in a wheelchair. Using a actual power chair and a weed eater. The edgers are two cumbersome from me.
So sorry that you're unable to do your lawn. I sympathize with you bc when my father couldn't do his lawn anymore, it was very hard for him. Mowing was therapeutic for him, as it is for most people who take pride in their lawn. That's when the family took over. I began to love mowing just as he did. It gives a sense of pride & accomplishment after your finished! Here is when others need to step up for you to help. Maybe some kind gentleman could help you also.
@@graciemaca6996 I'm deeply sorry but you didn't properly read my message. Maybe you got the who's who and the what's what mixed up. If you read this I hope that this helps.
1: I'm paralyzed from a construction accident on 10-02-1998 at the age of 21 years old. I just turned 45 years old.
2: From the age of 15 to 18 I worked at 2 different lawn maintenance companies over the 3 seasons in the Kansas City Missouri area. I grew up in Grandview Missouri.
3: I have a 42" Commercial Gravely Zero Turn Mower and I still climb on it to mow if my girlfriend doesn't beat me to it. I can't use it half as good as I could a walk behind but that's irrelevant lol.
4: I also have a 2-Cycle Toro Weed Eater, Edger combination, that I can also hook my Pole Saw into, and then the Rototiller attachment. I abuse it for a person paralyzed from the waist down (T-12 spinal cord injury).
5: Granted the last couple of years I just can't do all the Twisting and Turning necessary to do it myself.
6: I bought this house 16 years ago and over all the years I've been here I've weed eated both my neighbors yards more than they have. Neighbor to the South is the second person (Don & Dennis) and the North is the third person (never met the first person, then Jennifer, & now Kasey who's been here for 2 years). Granted my new neighbor to the North personally maintains his yard now better than I take care of mine now but he's way more financially able to do so. I use my battery powered sprayer for weeds and he pays someone. The last 2 years I've paid someone every 2 weeks to do the edging and weed eating.
If you get to read this, I hope this draws a better or fuller picture of the situation and I can't remember the ladies name across the street. She push mows it and I've taken my zero turn mower over there and done the front yard to help her out. I don't remember ever getting a Thank You but this is 15 of the 16 years. It's also made my life a living hell with weed seeds so this last summer I decided, never again. I'm way too nice to people and it's like I just can't make myself stop.
@@graciemaca6996 I never saw your message until tonight when someone I believe liked your comment or mine.
Super clean finish. The way you bounced the blade to find the concrete edge was really helpful. Thank you.
Glad it was helpful!
I love looking at you doing a great job on the yard.
I appreciate it, thanks!
Hardly anyone does their kerbs or "sidewalks" in the UK so shovel or not this was mega satisfying to watch, nice work Johnny. Just finished tidying up mine for the winter. 👍
Thanks 👍
Introduce it to em boss! Show em Obe1 Goes the extra step for a clean and Crisp UK lawn!
Johnny, none of my business, instead of pulling up the cut grass use a flat spade shovel. Seems to me would be easier.
I wasn't prepared for this task so I didn't have my shovel available

@@Bladesofgrasslawncare May be a good idea just to keep a shovel in your trailer at all times. Great video. Thanks!
I’m new to the channel, but I have been binge watching it over the last few days. I’m no professional more of a hobbyist when it comes to yardwork and remember what it was like doing this on my own yard took me about 2 hours and was just as bad as this one if not worse. Also anytime anyone ask you why you switch to electric you should send him straight to this video because every time you had to restart the edger it took 10 to 20 seconds and as they say time is money plus I believe your new set up cuts much better. Keep up the good work you’ve got a sub from me.
People always say should of/could of!!! So you forgot your shovel. You seem to do okay without. I watched lot of videos where the lawn care guys worked w/out a shovel. So carry on. Wonderful job.
Love the PAPER BAGS!! Good for you. Every bit help in the long run. Great job..
Yes! Thank you!
You do AWESOME Work ..... ! ! ! Thanks for sharing this video.
Love your videos and am learning tricks and shortcuts when I cut my yard.
That was a big job for just edging the lawn and very nice of you to go ahead and do it. It’s looking great now 👍🏾
Thanks 👍
This was was my first video watching you . Awesome job . Turns out I’m using the blower correctly to blow excess clippings and debris back into the yard. My mom used to yell at me for doing that .
Awesome, hope that you subbed
PG Tips Great job so precise very sharp edges well done 👍 love the camera work we get to see the cutting etc so well . 🙏🏻🙏🏻👏👏👍🇬🇧
Thank you! Cheers!
Great job yes a flat shovel will keep you from breaking ur back boy does that edging really make a lawn look great love it god bless you and your family
Another beautiful job! Thanks for the video and God Bless!
Thank you!
Growing up I delivered newspapers and mowed lawns. You have no idea how fascinating these videos are.
Wow, thank you!
Satisfying watching you peel those over grown edges up. Great job!
Thanks 👍
Great job: Johnny!!! If you happen to run across an 8.5' x 16'' enclosed trailer, please let me know; I have been looking for a while now!
Got it, thanks!
Wow Johnny you did great work on that, that was very overgrown
Thanks, John!
Man I wonder how long would this job have taken if I was holding the camera recording so you wouldn't have to keep moving it while you use the AMES Rotary push edger? 😆 🤣 😂 Good job Mr. Johnny.
Great upload! I haven't done one that bad yet but I know it's coming.
Amazing Job Sir Much Respect
What a difference nice edging makes... Looking good. Hard work certainly pays off. 👍👍👍👍👍
Thanks 👍
Hey Johnny, first of all, thank you for your military service to our country, I retired from the Army in 2004 . Keep up the great job you do with your lawn care business. Have a question for you, do you pressure wash you mowers when they need to be cleaned?
Thanks for your service, yes I do but just dont point it at your engine.
That’s a few courses of sod lol!! These uncut vid versions are even more satisfying and relaxing.
More to come!
I assume this is not A HOA neighborhood. The buyer is going to look at the surrounding homes and make a decision whether to buy. The future buyer is going to look at the neighbors grass landscaping as well as the condition of the home next door. Good call on the seller to have you hedge the neighbors lawn.
Blades, You need a flat edge shovel to scrap the edge when edging the grass. Your back will give out.
I know... I wasn't prepared to do this today 😂
Much, much better, well done. Great job.
Thank you very much!
Great job man really love your work ethic
I appreciate that!
If I’m ever down in Savannah again I’m going to look you up I like the you work.
A shovel would have came in handy for you.....lol Nice job. I always love a nicely edged lawn...
You got that right! but I wasn't prepared for this today
Great work as always my friend! 👍
Thank you! Cheers!
I save some of that edging grass to cover up bald spots in my yard. Good work !
Good idea!
Hola blades es gusto verte lo que haces me relaja te felicitó por ser una persona buena tú amiga Lupe pizarro dé Cuenca Ecuador
Great work, advice you should use flat head shovels instead of pulling out the carpet of grass by hand. Saves a lot of lower back pain 👍🏼
Thanks for the info
You're a really hard worker.
Wow it must’ve been a few years since anyone did the edging. I’m glad it didn’t do you in! Great job!
Thank you!
I might not finish watching it but Keep up the great work
Understandable, thanks!
Well you weren’t prepared to do this cause of the late request but if I were you I always would put the flat shovel in your trailer. Don’t think it would take that much space. As a lot of commentators want you to spare your back me included. Nice of you to do the late request even with your tight schedule. 👍
Great video have a great night
Thank you! You too!
A Walk Behind Edger makes a Stick Edger look like a toy. You should rent one and witness first hand how much faster it can do a job like this.
Fantastic job watched and didn’t move till you were done I think I like that edger you got 👍
Thanks 👍
Excellent job! Did the neighbor who own that house ever come out and thank you for making their home look so much nicer?
Not sure why, but I found this video oddly calming. Lol! Maybe because I am sitting on the sofa watching someone else work??
You do such superb work. I have been trying to find a handle like you have on your edger. I am over 60, disabled with RA and fibromyalgia so back, neck and shoulder pain is constant. I still have yardwork to do and am wondering where you got the handle as it would change my world when I edge and trim. I have EGO weeder and edger that are very heavy and hard for me to hold/control--but I dearly love EGO products. If you created the handle--you have a great design to patent and sell. I would be first in line!
Have a great week!
Great job. Bless you.
Thank you! Cheers!
Great video awesome work
Thanks 👍
Your the best at what you do
Thank you!
Wow, that took some doing, fantastic job 👏 👍
Thanks 👍
Nice job! Looks great!
Thank you! Cheers!
What a beautiful job!! Oh how I would love to have been there to haul off all that St.Augustine sod for you…here in central TX they’re often hard to come by 🤷♀️
👍💯💯💯👏👍
Oh wow, thanks! its centipede grass by the way
Hmmm, maybe I don’t have St. Augustine after all…same runners. I’ll have to Google centipede grass. Thanks!
I'm a landscaper but if I wasn't I would seriously have Johnny working with my grass love his work an his business is so legit he's willing to share mistakes and feed you knowledge that can help your pockets would really love to meet Johnny I trained all my newbies with his videos and JK Landscaping in Ohio supports you guys and everything that you do
Wow, thanks a lot!
I need to do this but we don't have sidewalks and we all have ditches but the grass is growing over the pavement onto the street
Damn Jonny, I ain’t never seen you been over this much in all you videos lol
Looks great!
Excellent job 👍
Thanks 👍
Them edges be so sharp!!!!
Man that Husqvarna battery powered equipment is awesome 👍
It sure is!
Clean… keep it going‼️🤙🏾🤙🏾
Thanks 💯
impressive battery edger is doing a good job he needs a good old Fashion shovel with a wheeed trash can and one of those roller brushes for cleaning up to save time job well done!
Great job
I hope the homeowner paid you for cleaning up his sidewalk and driveway. You do really good work. Agree with the other comments, a shovel would have saved your back!!
Great chance to upsell the client on a powerwash.also a flat shovel works great for getting that grass rug off the sidewalk but at the end of the day you got to do what works for you.cheers
Great point!
Nice work.
Thank you! Cheers!
Well Done sir👍
Yes, a flat head shovel helps the back... I'm getting old, every little trick helps💯‼️🙏👍✌️
That clean up job looks amazing but that was definitely back breaking work stooping over to pick up the layers of grass debris after edging. There should be an easier way of doing it that puts less strain on your back. Perhaps a broom with some type of shovel although it might take a little more time.
Great job.
Thank you! Cheers!
I'm 65 and a 108 lb woman that takes care of most of the 1 1/4 acre but with the right equipment I don't do to bad
Hey Guys - awesome
i was wandering - thise are very viable grass cuttings. di you ever offer to fill in bald patches in other customer lawns with those cuttings?
Yes we do
You showed this video a couple of weeks ago. But I see this a longer version.
This is realtime
Looking real good man!!!
Appreciate it!!
Great video bro 👍
Appreciate it
You inspire me brother...
I watched this video a few times no way this is lighter or cheaper than the ryobi 18 v electric I have had a few that I baught at pawnshops changed the heads and seems to work just as efficient
Could you have undercut the growth with a string trimmer by coming in flush or does that ruin the sharpness look of the final edge?
Yes, it ruins the blade to do it that way
Hey Johnny I’m looking for a new gas edger and I was wanting to hear your input. I trust you opinion and I was wondering should I get a husqvarna edger or a STIHL edger. In my area they both cost pretty much the same so pricing isn’t a issue.
I would go with a STIHL I own a stihl gas edger and its been super reliable for years
Great job sir as always .Andrew B & O Lawn Care LLC Atlanta GA
Thanks 👍
Nice neighbor!
I know you got paid good for this one Johnny!🤑
Definitely!
I know what you mean about battery powered equipment. When my doctor put me on a 10 pound lift limit because of a bad back and I’m not a spring chicken any more (his words) I looked at all of the battery powered weed eater/trimmers in all of the stores in my area. They probably thought I was a crazy old lady. I went to the bathroom sections and got a bathroom scale and sat the packages on the scales. If the box was 15 pounds or less it was a contender. I figured the packaging weighed about 5 pounds. When I made a selection I got an extra battery (those things cost almost as much as the weed eater) and a three pack of extra line, it takes one and about a half spools to get everything done. I take it in sections when I do the yard weed eating and trimming I start with the front yard and both sides of the house, back yard next day, mow the front and sides the next day and finally mow the back yard the next day. Guess my doctor is right I’m not a spring chicken anymore. I used to be able to get it done in one day with a back brace on. My brother remodeled my bathroom almost 10 years ago. It doubled in size (it was only as wide as a bathtub so I made a management decision and took half of my office space for the new bathroom) I spent a small fortune for a whirlpool tub at the time. I’m so glad I did. It has paid for itself many times over. It’s sucks getting old for aure
Thanks for sharing!
Another old chickie here with degenerative arthritis in my back. I was thrilled when I found the Ryobi battery powered tools. Turns out the ergonomic strimmer I bought is the lightest on the market and the battery is the smallest one they make. Runs out of energy in 15 minutes, just like me. 😉 Picked up their lightest leaf blower with the least amount of oomph so I get less resistance against my wrists. Fortunately it's a small yard. I can almost keep up.
@@renel7303 a leaf blower will be my next purchase if I can find one that takes the batteries I already have. Those darn things cost almost as much as the tool. I to have degenerative disk with arthritis. I had carpel tunnel in both hands but after the surgery (both hands at the same time, don’t do that) now the arthritis in my wrists is bothering me.
@@elizabethadams5699 This getting old stuff is definitely not for wimps. I hope you have lots of tools available. I decided Ryobi would be easy at Home Depot and there are over 100 yard and shop tools for this battery system. The batteries are pricey. Some of the tools are available without batteries to keep the cost down. Battery powered yard tools are a game changer for me. If I just have 5 minutes I can tidy one small area or blow off the driveway or large patio. So satisfying. Saturday I did my sidewalk. It wasn't as bad as this video but definitely needed a trim. The air was so bad for weeks from the fires here in California that a lot of yards got shaggy.
If I see that car one more time it's light's out for that guy 😂
Nice. Bet you wish you had a pressure washer on hand for that sidewalk lol
I wish!
Melanie, I was just going to say the same!
Just thnking.
a fold down work bench where your bush/hedge trimer hangs would be good so you do not have to change blades with the machines on the ground would be nice for you. the bush/hedge trimer hanger would be on the fold down leg of the work bench/ bending down multipole times a day would kill my back :)
Great tip thanks!
It would be nice if someone could fund you for that folding work table/bench! You do so much for others!
You need a shovel anyway you did a great job on the lawn I enjoy your video thank u
Thanks 👍
