Hi Lee I am enjoying your videos in this quarantine of COVID19. I am not a gardener but I plant spices like basil, coriander, peppers for my use. Sometimes it's not quite right but I keep trying. 😊 You are the Man! I am impressed to see you revealing the beauty hidden by the bush. You show pleasure in what you do but it seems very tiring. I imagine that when your day is over and you get home all you want to do is take a shower, eat something and sleep. I wish you a lot of health to keep working and making videos that satisfy your followers. Luv from Brazil.
The house looks like it can breathe again. Another fantastic job on a difficult overgrown property. The new owner can now start fresh and hopefully plant something they are able to maintain reasonably.
Great job! I am amazed at what you accomplished in just a couple of days. I have really enjoyed all the three videos and appreciate how much work it was. These folks are so lucky to have you clearing their yards up. Good job. 🇨🇦
Don't be disappointed! Just because you didn't get a clip of the final result doesn't mean seeing all your hard work wasn't enjoyable. Love your videos, thank you for sharing them!
Your a hard worker Lee, this video shows a lot mate, sometimes it ain’t smooth sailing, but you persevere and wave goodbye to it soon enough. Thanks for taking the time to do the video. All the best Lee, see you on your next job 🌹
You work so hard, yet at the same time, you look like you are enjoying the work. Thanks for taking us along. I was really impressed with the digging of those hedges. That looked really hard to do. Looks great.
I love watching how yard cleanup is done on the other side of the pond. I really like your shredder in that it can be easily moved around by hand and does not seem to weigh a ton like we have here in the States. Also, your pole pruner is something I will look into getting. All that is offered here are the types where you use a rope to cut limbs which is a real pain. You did seem to bite off more than you could chew but you got the job done and like you said, it was just a cleanout and the garden beds are gonna look rough when completed. Great video and thank you. Jim from Florida, USA
Thanks Jim.. yeah we also have huge chippers that get towed with a van / truck..but I purposely bought this one for the maneuverability 👍👍I'm not a tree surgeon so this size is ideal ...thanks for watching mate hope you enjoy the other video 👍👍
Don’t knock yourself, it wasn’t no poor ending at all. You’ve done an awesome job there and of a high standard to so you should be well happy with yourself! And like I said on the last one, to achieve all that on your own is an amazing effort, be proud lee and stand strong💪😃
I’m convinced you went over and above the ‘brief’ here. Whatever you got, you deserved a bonus! Thinking of entering the priesthood to get a garden like that 😂🤣. Am subscribing to see the newer videos too if you’re still doing them 👍
Hey , as new to this business at 50 your videos were one of the inspirations to set up on my own after 30 years of working for other people. Now I'm doing a job that I enjoy for most of the time but sometimes we price up wrong ( especially me ) for the job at hand . You know what I like ? I have a landscape gardener around the corner from me who has been a godsend to me , loaning / giving me tools advice and you with your videos have been a great help ( even for a wrong side of the hills ) . Could be worse , we could be working for a faceless boss and given a number to clock in with . Gardeners rule 😁
Most enjoyable set of videos . Estimating jobs is always difficult , you can’t be spot on every time . I appreciate your honesty , rare in these days .👍👍👍
Without your knowhow that job would still need alot of work doing to it, it looks brilliant Lee.. Be proud of your resilience and hard work.. Honesty goes so far... There are not alot of craftsmen left..
I watched all 3 videos. I don't think you give yourself enough credit. You do fine work and it is truly appreciated by many. Me included. After hearing what you said about trimming the top so the roots have a chance to take hold, now I'm wondering if this would be a good time to trim a crepe myrtle tree I dug up and transplanted. I know you don't give advice, just wish you did. Anyway.....as always, throughly enjoy your videos. Take care. 👍🏻🙂
Youay be disappointed to not have been able to film the 'grand finale' of all your days of hard work Lee. Know nothing better than looking back at the end of the before and after. You worked tirelessly, your knowledge, as always shown thru, I loved them all. Hope u ou ate a big steak and had a pint or two after it was done. I didn't need a final 'finale' so to speak - it was quite clear the work you did n how much better it looked.. By a mile!
Yes I'm in the same boat this week. 3 days in, with a lleylandii, yew and ivy to knock back on the next visit. I'm astonished how much waste there is from even a small garden. The nibbler will be out on the next run to shred as much as I can. Probably 4 ton sacks worth! If only we could know how long these jobs will take beforehand life would be so much easier.
Ah, had to bag it all ready for the shredder. It started to hammer it down and it wasn't going in the van! A florist had pledged to take a load of laurel and ivy off my hands, which saves me a massive job with waste. She's now backed out ,so it will have to be shredded on site.
A great set of videos, you achieved so much in four days utilising expensive equipment. I hope you charged what you are worth, at least £200 per day. Thanks for sharing.
looking forward to your next vid matey, Have a few ideas for intros. Its difficult to film at the best of times, but when we have the weather and seasons against its nigh-on impossible
Hi Lee. I can sympathise, I do the same work, on a smaller scale though. Did you leave all the rubbish there, apart from larger trunks and roots? Rubbish removal is the bane of my life! I can't yet afford some of the gear you use to mulch or break it down.
Hi Lee, just finished my morning gardening, its pouring down now. I've got a massive hedge cutting job soon, half an acre of land various hedging all around it, Leylandii, hawthorn, beech. Each around 8ft tall. 4 ft wide, which is better, to cut the top first or sides?
Perseverance! Although the ending was a bit dark you can see the huge difference you’ve made. Whats the long term plan with the garden now the old shrubs have gone?
I know this is unrelated to the video but did anyone else get hit with that Google 2019 ad about heroes? Excuse while i cry to the sound of a wood chipper lol
Worked by yourself Made multiple trips (days) to the property Battled, cut, and chipped down bushes, trees, and weeds Risked your life with the animals of the earth in that jungle Had to clean all of that up by yourself! 😮😬 Did I mentioned that you were solo? 😟😩 I hope that you charged at least 1000 dollars (which I believe is 1120 euros) and treated yourself to a massage the way your neck, back, and knees were after that job! 💶💆♂️
For the likes of us watching your videos with aspirations of starting a business, what kind of price would you put on a job that size? If you don’t mind me asking 😬
LHL garden services uk that’s fair enough and I respect your answer, how about if I’m not so specific, would you agree £35 an hour is a good rule of thumb? Judging the hours is probably the hardest part for each individual there after
@@c0deye1 Cheers👍......well yes £35 an hr is good if you can get it also it depends on your experience, overheads, competition and tools.....I demand £75 for the first hr and £65 for every hr after. PLUS fuel and £1.50 per mile.......if it rains I demand bad weather payments on top...if I use my chipper i charge £300 a day plus fuel... I've also been known to talk a load of bullshit 🙈🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣hope I didnt get you going too much there (couldn't resist)..seriously...if you can get £35 that is not to be sniffed at especially if you are just starting out 👍👍👍
LHL garden services uk hook, line and sinker 🤣🤣 I have zeroed in on you because you’re videos are great and you’re a scouser (all my family but my siblings are scousers😁) I’ll probably ask you more advice but never again about money 😁
Nice job Lee. That chipper sure comes in handy. Is that frost on the ground, what part of the UK are you???? Phoenix, AZ still in the upper 60's, some days in the 70's. Really like your videos. 👍👍👍👍👍👍😉🇺🇸
Looks great! What a difference. Lots of hard work!
Thank you Anita 😊
No need to apologise, bro'. A good series and illustrating a great deal of professional work.
Thanks for all three. Paul
🙏😊
I remember going to school in the dark and coming home in the dark! Hated it!
😅😅think we all do 😜
The new owner needs some sheep. I would plant some apple trees and a rose garden😊 great property, you did a great job.

Hi Lee. I can sympathise, I do the same work, on a smaller scale though. Did you leave all the rubbish there, apart from larger trunks and roots? Rubbish removal is the bane of my life! I can't yet afford some of the gear you use to mulch or break it down.
Yes only removed the roots 👍👍
Hi Lee, just finished my morning gardening, its pouring down now. I've got a massive hedge cutting job soon, half an acre of land various hedging all around it, Leylandii, hawthorn, beech. Each around 8ft tall. 4 ft wide, which is better, to cut the top first or sides?
people have different methods...I like to cut the sides first because this helps clear a way to the top.. try both and see what feels better 👍
Perseverance! Although the ending was a bit dark you can see the huge difference you’ve made. Whats the long term plan with the garden now the old shrubs have gone?
Cheers buddy...I dont get involved now ...the new vicar is "supposed " to look after it 👍
Watching you stick your arm in that shredder gives me anxiety 😱😱😱
😁😁😁dont worry its nowhere near the blade
You are impressive
Thank you 😊😊
I know this is unrelated to the video but did anyone else get hit with that Google 2019 ad about heroes? Excuse while i cry to the sound of a wood chipper lol
U always get it right
🤣🤣🤣👍👍👍
Worked by yourself
Made multiple trips (days) to the property
Battled, cut, and chipped down bushes, trees, and weeds
Risked your life with the animals of the earth in that jungle
Had to clean all of that up by yourself! 😮😬
Did I mentioned that you were solo? 😟😩
I hope that you charged at least 1000 dollars (which I believe is 1120 euros) and treated yourself to a massage the way your neck, back, and knees were after that job! 💶💆♂️
Erm......money is a sore point on THIS job.....🙈🙈🙈🙈....you win some ..you loose some 😉

Nice job Lee. That chipper sure comes in handy. Is that frost on the ground, what part of the UK are you???? Phoenix, AZ still in the upper 60's, some days in the 70's. Really like your videos. 👍👍👍👍👍👍😉🇺🇸
thank you 😁..no it's not frost just wet grass 👍
Is that Jack Frost I see
No it's just wet grass 👍👍
It clearly took so long as you are on your own maybe should have 2 people doing this type of work but then less profit for you as you know
That is what my mrs says to me but I like to to a job and not have to sleep for a week after , spread the load .
What ran up the wall at 9.18 next to the white box was big whatever it was this is why I don’t like gardening and ivy god knows what’s in there lol
😮😮😮...🐀🐀🐀

Wow I’m surprised we didn’t see “Shredded Scouser” in that video! Best wishes
