This Neighborhood Eyesore Gets a FREE Yard Transformation (Part 1)
Vložit
- čas přidán 21. 07. 2024
- By far the hardest, thickest, most tiring overgrown yard I have ever mowed. Bringing this overgrown lawn back into shape took a TOTAL OF 6 HOURS OF HARD LABOR!
Temperatures peaking at 96°F with wind gusts of 15mph. Oh, and should I mention we are surrounded by fires? Yes I drank lots of water. Yes I ate food and had plenty of protein. But still at the end of the service, I was about ready to fall over...
The homeowner was truly shocked & blessed when he found out his lawn was going to be serviced FREE of charge. Yes that's right. I knocked on his door, and asked if he wanted me to cut it for free. He couldn't believe I was actually willing to take it on this nightmare of a lawn. It was in desperate need of some mowing and seems like edging hasn't been done in years.
This homeowners tall grass was soaking wet upon arrival. Seems like also the sprinkler system had gone off that morning. I knew this overgrown lawn was going to be a challenge to put back into shape. My lawn mowing skills would definitely be put to the test!
Instead of writing a long description like I usually do, I will keep it short and sweet. To follow along during this tall grass mowing video, I have added chapters to simplify what I am doing in each section.
Enjoy this amazing overgrown grass mowing video and don't forget to watch till the end because we show you the before & after photos. Have a great day and don't forget to like, comment, share, and subscribe if you haven't already. Thanks in advance!🌲🌲🌲🚜

Hi, Fill! Great video! You certainly have my respect for all of those tough mowing jobs that you do for free to help people out. I am sure you are highly regarded in your community.
Thanks Rex. Really appreciate your support 👍🏼

That was some healthy long green grass and some almost dead yellow! Nice job! 👍
So great to see a smart guy wearing a mask, hat protector & gloves! Your work is awesome! Much respect to you!!!
It's definitely a must in this heat and industry in general :)
@@fillslawncare your one of the rare guys that takes care of themselves! I see dust just blowing on there face & in there lungs! It will come back & bite you in the ass! I was a painter & didn’t always wear a mask 😷 & used some pretty strong paints that just burned my lungs & dry wall dust that I inhaled & now I have cancer due to the environment I was told! So I can’t stress enough COVER up! Even had to get a full knee replacement at 49 from not wearing knee pads! When we feel healthy & young you don’t think these type of things will happen to you until it does! Never was able to go back to the work I loved! So people take advice when its given its for a reason!! I wouldn’t wish what I have been through to my worst enemy! I have also had 5 reoccurrences in 12 years maybe this is why I am still alive to give this advice! Be smart!
@@fillslawncare Also, sound protection from all that noise???
That grass was insane. Judging by the amount of soil and grass growing over the cement, I don’t think that yard has ever been edged. Great job!
There's darkness in that house...but you showed them what light can do ! You have a good heart and their neighbours will love you for doing this.
Praying your "payment" comes by way of loads of business from people who appreciate excellent service. Great job on a very demanding lot. Well done! God bless you 🙏
God bless you too Gail. Have a great day :)
You are (in my humble opinion) hand's down the best at what you do out of America. There are 2 guy's from Australia whose work is on par with yours. Everyone else in the lawn care service are to be commended for doing gardens in their neighborhoods but they lack the eye for detail that you have. Well done.
Thank you 😊
You did a great job whipping that lawn back into shape, major improvement, I'm sure the homeowners were grateful. Thank you for being so generous!
You did a awesome job , love your content no talking or bragging about your company. Love watching you!
Super job - well done! Every lawn you mow makes a remarkable transformation.

Part 2 will be released next week. Make sure to subscribe and hit the notification bell to not miss it 👍🏼
I enjoy the fact that there is more than one part because you take the time and effort to do everything. From edging to weeding to picking up the clippings. A beautiful job from start to finish.
You, young man, are a miracle worker-especially battling that wind! Great job! Love your vids!!
Thank you Gail :)
Great job! I’m shocked because the grass looked so healthy then as you mowed it looks like the ground is very uneven.
Fill, great job I have respect gif your great work !The owners should have given you a $300.00 tip !
This is the thickest, most lushest grass I've ever seen
The most positive way to make any mowing job look professional is a great edging job. And you did a great edging job for sure. Thumbs Up!
Thank you Gary 👍🏼
I actually enjoy edging.
Great job! That had to be some back breaking work! That yard was odd too lol. So thick in places that it looked like sod and bare in others. You made it look amazing!
Woah that was some really tricky grass groom! But you left the owners with a very nice looking property. Blessings to you for these gifts you give people!
👌💯👏💯👌
Wow, that’s some seriously healthy Fescue. I know that was a tough job, I really hope they appreciate all that u did and it will motivate them to continue the upkeep.
That was a tough looking yard to tackle with the grass laying in all directions. You did a great job of making it look great..keep up the good work.Love your videos!
Whenever you shovel to remove the grass off the concrete the grass looks likes it’s a live grass snake😀😀
That homeowner was blessed to have you do all of that!!👍👍
Not sure what amazes me more, the condition of the "before" or what you are able to accomplish with some basic tools and a effort. Another great job
The main question I have for all these videos is HOW do people let their yard get to this condition? Broke? Lazy? Apathetic? Oblivious? All of them at once? It's almost as amazing to me as your transformations Fill! Almost :)
90% of these videos, "My lawn mower stopped working". I know a ton of them are elderly and can't mow or afford to pay someone to do it, but a bunch of these people probably do fall into another category such as lazy. Two vehicles in the drive. They can afford even a decent used mower to do this. Years ago, I used to have a neighbor who would let her grass get like this all the time. She would go out and knock it down with an off brand riding mower. It would end up looking worse when she was done than when it was a foot tall. She would do that about every month or two, never bothering to trim around the trees so that grass was jungle-like. She was a great neighbor.
The homeowner's association NEEDS to come down HARD on people like this.
I truly hope those people had a good reason for you to not charge them. After I saw the edging part and you uncovering cement, I would have given up. You truly are a great person. The back yard, now that was another story. You should have rented a tractor for that and given the grass clipping to some farmer. He'd have been able to feed his farm animals for a week. What a job. Great job on your part. Hope you rested a lot after that one.
Acctually for animals the best way to cut food for animals is with the scythe. A farmer told me that because the animals can tell the difference in fresh cut grass.
@@rokoa5269 Wow, really? Didn't know that. Thanks!
Please know that you can actually kill a horse feeding mower-cut grass. They will eat too fast and it won't break down. They can get colic or rupture their intestines!
That edging brick in in the other video bothered me for about 90 seconds, BUT your going back to pick it up has earned lasting respect. Just adds to the respect that you deserve for doing lawns like this. More people than most can imagine need others who are as kind as you.
Thank you kindly :)
Looks so good and so much hard work … you truly are a blessing to these folks (regardless of their circumstances). Fill, your light shines so very bright and gets brighter with each service you perform for your fellow men.
Wonderful job! I honestly respect your desire and willingness to help those who need help. I don't know the circumstances behind the homeowners allowing their lawn to get so overgrown but I am sure there is a good reason! By the looks of the home I am sure it wasn't intentional! I admire you for doing the yard, no questions asked! You are a man of integrity! I love your video and keep doing more! God Bless!
My guess LAZINESS!
Helping the sick or the elderly is good but judging by the vehicles in the driveway, it appears that he and or she could afford to pay for lawn care. Don't know the story behind the free lawn care, but, kudos to you!!! You will be blessed!!! And I'm sure the neighbors appreciated it too💯!!!
I don't know the story behind why they haven't mowed but it was the only overgrown yard in the neighborhood so I just went ahead and brought a tremendous blessing upon them.
Perhaps the vehicles belonged to family or healthcare workers or the church pastor or social services?
he makes more money from youtube sharing the footage than the house owner would paying him, hes just cutting it to makea video to make money, he and the house owner both win from it
@@sugargliderdude Agreed, and I hope Fill keeps making the videos and earning that $ because his work is well worth it :)
I’m not sure we will ever know if the family or homeowner is financially stable. They could be one payment away from losing the cars or even the house. Even if they are not we are lucky there are amazing people in this world that help give other a sense of pride. Keep sharing your ability to give to others and helping yourself so you can continue to do so!!!!
Thank you for working like a dog to make this property look so nice! Great job, Fill!
I hope these people have a good reason for needing a free lawn service. They do not look like they are hurting for money. Thanks for the video.
An incredible amount of work. Great job. I would have to agree that the homeowners appear to have the means to pay someone to cut their lawn on the regular. I mostly appreciate freebies when helping the elderly or sick.
@@Elsa-xoxo Agree!
This was the only overgrown lawn in this neighborhood so I decided just to be a huge blessing to them 🙂
I totally agree. Nice house and new cars. Come on they are lazy. 🤬🤬🤬
@@fillslawncare I am sure it was but at some point people need to take responeablitly for their actions and people are perfectly capable to clean up their own yard are taking away from people who are sick that cannot take care of their yard.
Man, that was a tough gig !! Well done. 🚜
Your work is always so thorough and your finished product so neat and tidy!! You must truly enjoy your profession. Reminds me of a seamstress that cannot abide one stitch out of line!
I love what I do :)
No gym for you today Fill! Some work out that was. Great job, thanks for sharing. 👍👏👏👏👏💯
Haha right? Thanks for watching Jean
Fill, sorry I missed out on the premiere! Busy at work! Anyway, amazing job as always! You are a good man and a Godsend, doing it for free! God Bless you, sir! Well can’t wait to see part 2! Keep up the great work!
Thanks Eric. Take care my friend. See you in the next one 👍🏼
Now why do you work alone get some one to help you plz plz you are doing a great job kind regards Nico and Elaine from nw south africa
Another awesome job, your community should be very proud of you . You seem to get the really toughest jobs. FANTASTIC.👏👏👍🏻👌♥️
There’s that toupee grass again. Laying flat in all the wrong directions 😂
Looking 100% better. Great job as always.
Looking forward to part II
Thank you Kelley :)
OMG!!! That lawn was certainly a huge challenge. Nice work.
Hello from Shreveport Louisiana. Job Well Done. Hopefully People of All Ages will Inspire To Do The Same. 🙏🏻
You have become one of my favorite to watch! I love that you edge in sections and use the shovel! You know why people watch these types of videos😉. Great job 👏🏻
Thank you:)
Thank you for being so kind and helping 😃
Hey Fill, nicely done. Looking forward to seeing the backyard video!
Couldn’t wait to see the magic transformation of this overgrown mess. Right off the bat the difference between the neighbors grass and that yard was outrageous. It looked almost like mowing hay, you feel sorry for the folks on either side having to look at that mess, when apparently they keep their yards nice. It sure did look very wet when you started. You did everyone a big favor by cleaning up that overgrown mess. Bravo, well done
Before you cut a edge ….. you must find it 🤔
AMAZING JOB 👏👏👏👏👏
I absolutely love watching you clean up people's yard's! Too bad you are not in the Branson area or I'd let you take care of mine. There's nothing I love more than mowing the lawn! I've been pushing a walker around for 12 years now and really miss taking care of my place. One of these years I'll be able to afford a mower that doesn't require foot action! Lol keep up the good work kiddo and God bless
I respect this guy, he can teach you many things just by watching him work he’s amazing, thank you so much phill for all your hard work and effort you do I appreciate it.
I would be embarrassed to let my yard get that bad. After seeing how great their yard looks, maybe
the homeowner will keep it mowed and edged. That edging is like icing on the cake. Great job!
You did a wonderful job on that yard thank you for helping someone in need.
The front yard is so mush nicer all trimmed and edged and cut looks good . Thank you for your video .
Enjoyed watching the vid! Great job that you did! Hope to see more in the future.
As always you done a excellent work you gonna be very busy so be prepared young man have a blessed day you are on my prayer list
Another great job you have done you never give up at what you are doing.I don't think that I would be able to do what you do.God bless you.
You"re the best. Always a job well done. So satisfying to watch. 👋👍
I can't say it enough. You 😂are the best. Cleaning up all the excess from sidewalks and drives look so much better than throwing all that and mowing it over the yard grass.
You are awesome!! Thanks for all you do for people!! 🤩
Looks great 👍
A lot of hard work.
You do an awesome job .you have some tough jobs .i know they are thrilled you are there .working so hard.you know neighbors used to help out but not today .
OMG what a horrible mess you have taken on, for free. You are a good man 👍👍
Thank you John
Okay, that was brutal!! Talk about patience and perseverance, you have it! Well thank GOD for that! The whole job that you did was amazing especially what you had to do. An excellent job for sure! 💯👍👏
Thank you 😊
Impressed by the state of this long grass.🍃🍃🍃
Looks like a human who was lost in the forest for several months, long hair!😁Great job in very demanding terrain! Well done! God bless you 🙌
It's so strange how parts of the lawn looks so healthy with over watering and then there are parts with no lawn and never look watered!!
Maybe some cars usually parking there?
Or…the sprinkler heads aren’t positioned properly?
Love love LOVE 💕 the edging in this video! Love the lawn tools you use, also. Great video, thumbs up! 👍🏻
Great job Fill ... looks nice!
Man.. the sound of the shovel on the sidewalk is so satisfying. Excellent video!

Fantastic job very thorough and I like the way you clean up as you go along, may blessing and growth in your business continue from the Uk.
You always do an amazing job.
Nice job done here, going to watch PART 2.
Great Part I. It's amazing that you are doing all this work without any help. You've gotta be very sore at the end of the day. Press on..
Great job as usual !!
A couple of sheep and a cow would be glad to take care of that lush green grass!
I have no idea where you are located in the US but it seems so many of these lawns have this thick grass and then large and small bare dirt areas, i see nice rich topsoil on some lawns and others look like the desert Southwest! Would like to know why that is! Kudos to you for taking on these 'tough' lawn jobs you really do a great job bringing them back!
He's in Spokane, Washington, which is kind of a desert area. The soil can vary a lot, so a lot of developments have topsoil hauled in. The summers are very dry so if you don't water your lawn constantly it will all turn brown. A lot of these places have poorly set up or broken sprinkler systems, so they have dry areas. It may also be that the part on natural soil (instead of brought in topsoil) is basically growing in a sand pile, so nothing is going to make it grow well. I used to live outside of Spokane and I really don't miss the challenge of trying to grow a decent lawn.
Super great job! Looked awesome!
Nice looking grass cut , you must feel proud to keep it professional and I give you 👍
You put in some serious work on those edges, outstanding job!
Far play to you finding the edges of the paths with it being so overgrown. Very impressive 👏👏👏👍🏻👋👋💚❤️☘️🇮🇪
That was massive edging, well done. Hope you get work from this great job.
Thank you once again for all your hard work God bless xx
Great video and transformation! Can’t wait for part two 😀
Thank you
I don’t understand how people can look at their yard and just let it get that bad, another good job dude!
People are the same with their cars, work space, bedrooms, etc. I never know why or what is going on unless they tell me. Don't feel comfortable asking 😕
@@fillslawncare I can relate to the cars because I’m a mechanic, we get vehicles in that are so worn out and aren’t taken care off it’s crazy
I got a hoot out of that little piece where you started. The neighbour did his half and couldn’t possibly do the other 4 ft. I laughed my head off some people can’t bring them self to assist others. Thank God for people like you😂😂😂😂
Awesome job as usual. Never change your work ethic. You are one of the best.
Hi Fill, love watching your videos, find them relaxing and calming, love all the cool tools you use, keep up the good work, Best Wishes, from John, here in the U.K, 😊😊👍👍
Great job!
Wow that edging looks so good!
Excellent!! Good mowing!!
*What great attention to detail. Damn good work, job well done!*
Thank you
Wow, all that hard work for free, enjoyed the video until the end.👍🏻
Excellent job👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
Something is terribly wrong in that household/neighborhood when they can’t afford the required upkeep. 🤔🥺
Fill your work ethics are amazing so detailed so organized 👌 😀
Fantastic buddy.
Wow that grass is thick! Great job❣️
Thank you
Good JOB! The edging gave me satisfaction watching it. :)
Man that's some thick grass. End result looks great.
Great job👍👍😊
Great job❤
