A little judgey. It’s not about time. SB has the tools to do this job. These neighbors likely don’t. Also, let’s not randomly judge how people spend their time. People have busy lives and an empty homes lawn care might be a lower priority than one’s job or kids or family. SB has professional lawn care tools that get what could take days done in hours. If SB was using a push mower and some non-electric pruning shears he wouldn’t be doing this. Also, for every property he helps the city has hundreds more to help… at least. Let’s all be a little less judgmental.
Spencer, on a vacant property like that one was, I don't blame you for limiting the clean up to the back yard. I wish you would consider wearing a face covering on these types of yards, since there is an awful lot of dust when using your equipment. You did a very nice job for the neighbors!

It's not a condition of homelessness, but a choice of paying outrageous amounts of money for the rent, or having a roof over your head. If landlords would just charge reasonable rates for the rent, homelessness wouldn't be the choice people would take.

@@SBMowing , it is a fantastic piece of equipment, which I like the variety of equipment you have. Honestly I was sort of on the edge of my seat seeing you mow through all of that tall grass/weeds etc. I started to wonder if you might run into a "car" lol. The futon "moment of relaxation" was a nice touch, lol. I couldn't believe how tall the brush was at that place. I was surprised honestly that the city hadn't already come out to start the process of cleaning up the area and contacting whoever owns it to charge/fine them. They have such policies here, they will even fine you for having your car on your lawn UNLESS it's a holiday or something like that. They will even fine you $25 if you put your trash out "too early" or don't bring your bins in before 7pm the day of pickup.
@@wengoszmleczny2802 a poorly maintained house lowers the value of all houses around it.

By cleaning up the house, he lifted the value of all surrounding houses and that's why the neighbors would've been happy that he did it.
There are so many people who want to buy homes, and then you see Spencer finding all of these abandoned ones...like it's just so sad. it's good to see Spencer caring about these homes!
@@xDbrad Being willing to put in a little effort could certainly pay off though. DIY knowledge is increasingly becoming more feasible than incomes required to enter the market. But I'm sure another factor is unrealistic expectations. That may well be a decent house, but since it doesn't have 4 bathooms or an 18-car garage, most may never consider it and instead continue to complain they're forking money over to a landlord instead.
@@sabretooth1997 One thing I had not considered until recently is these old homes that fall into disrepair it's not just about DIY knowledge, and getting them taken care of. That would be simple. The reality is these homes are full lead paint, asbestos tiles/insulation, and wiring that needs to be replaced. I don't know if you've ever lived in a home that only has two prong plugs, but it's crazy annoying. Getting a home like this up to code is very costly and not something youtube knowledge and elbow grease can fix.
I am just in awe! We owned a mowing business for a few years, and i KNOW the hard work you are donating! I pray you are extra blessed this year! I am subscribed and watch often!
ibe....probably not. Abandoned houses tend to have their wiring and pipes stolen, which wrecks the house past the point of most renovations. If homeless people been in there, it's a surprise it hasn't burned down. The neighborhood is better off though and vagrants are less likely to target the house if it's not been stripped already.
@@vinchinzo594 I don't recall us talking so I didn't "say" anything. I typed "probably not" because cutting the grass is not going to make up for pipes and wiring ripped out of the wall.
@@gregblackburn4280 "SAY: STATING SOMETHING, ESPECIALLY ONE'S OPINIONS OR FEELINGS" "STATE: EXPRESS SOMETHING DEFINITELY OR CLEARLY IN SPEECH *OR WRITING*." -Oxford dictionary. Go be a smart aleck to them. Your parents raised an idiot.
As a neighbor to some who don't take care of their yard, I thank you! I've attempted to help people with these needs and many are grateful, but others can just continue to take and take so you tire of helping them over and over. Also, I'm in the real estate industry. That futon and mattress pile may signify bed bugs or roaches. So make sure you're not bringing any friends home that are hard to get rid of!
Uh, no, these people I was discussing continue to ask for help, and while you're helping them, they ask for other favors you weren't there to perform. I think you could probably mind your own seeing as you have no idea what you're talking about. This young man in this video is doing a great service to his community and the owners of the homes.
@@joaocosta3374 In my case, all my neighbors know I'm there. I ask them if I can clean up and mow their yards. Some ask me to do it. If these owners in SB Mowing videos cared, they could possibly file a complaint and press charges or whatever. But who would? He's made the property pleasing and WAY better fit them and the neighborhood.
@@joaocosta3374 He always knocks on the door and ask for permission if the property isn't obviously abandoned which in this case its obviously is one. Yeah, the local government are supposed to be one cleaning the sidewalks but as you can see this property has been left like that for quite some time now.
I’m really surprised they and some others with the really tall grass haven’t gotten fined from the city yet. Thanks for helping all the neighbors out! When the grass gets that tall you start getting snakes, rodents, and all sorts of critters and bugs in there! Also be on the lookout when cleaning up the yards that have been neglected for a long time. One of the other TH-camrs that does this found a dead body in one of the cars in the back! 😱
I blame the municipality for letting it get this out of control. If I lived near that house I’d be calling the city every day. Great job on cleaning it up…
Always amazed how the neighbors will complain but not lift a finger to cut the lawn or even help these generous lawn men when they come to do it free of charge !
Oh, come on. The neighbors have jobs, their own lives to live, and their own lawns to mow. My lawn is h*ell to cut. The last thing I want after mowing all that is mowing still more - and I don't remember you (or any of the other holier-than-thou women commenting under this or other such videos) ever offering to help.
This was an epic clean up. I bet eventually you’ll get into real estate and start owning these abandoned properties. I never respected your lawn mover until THIS episode. Kudos sir!!!
Smart.. find a dilapidated house, purchase it, fix up the yard, pressure wash the house, fix what needs to be fixed with the YT revenue, rent it out, rinse and repeat.
I have been checking out other yard workers and there is none with the eye you have in how good your yards should look. God will bless you for your good heart. Your parents raised you right. I know they are so proud of you.
@@captainpearly3994 thats how i would mow. Plow everything down check for pipes etc… after running over. I like my equipment to be durable. Excellent job!
Wow!! That yard was horrible!! Another fantastic job Spencer!! Your kindness is appreciated!! You truly are an example that there are wonderful people in this world. Stay amazing Spencer!!👏👏♥️
Private property laws too. Should anything happen on the property and damage it, it’s the city who then goes to court. There’s also some pretty nasty people who would sue them over anything. Best not even get involved and allow every property owner to do what they believe is best. Even if it’s just properties like this, people will do what they can to get money from the city. This happens in court with basic small businesses too so you know it’ll happen if there’s a chance to sue the city.
Spectacular job Spencer! You went above,& beyond for this forgotten home. Hoping your equipment didn’t pay a high price for your generosity. Stay safe, healthy, happy, productive,& blessed.💯❤️👍🏾😀🙋🏽♀️✝️🙏🏾🇺🇸
There's something oddly satisfying about watching your videos, Spencer. It's like a jigsaw puzzle in reverse where you take pieces out to get the complete picture! Same goes with the pressure washing. At 67 years old I love seeing young people being productive and adding to society! I pray that God will bless you in all your endeavors!
Along with your amazing mowing skills you are an amazing editor. The transitions are flawless. They flow so naturally. BTW congrats on your marriage. Best to both of you!!😊
It looks great. I'm sure the entire neighborhood appreciates what you did. However yards that overgrown can be havens for snakes, so please be careful when moving or sitting on stuff left out in the yard, like futons.
Why don't the neighbors help? They obviously fo not care! Welcome to America. Nice job. Thank you for being a good neighbor to a community that let this happen and could not be bothered themselves!
I love these videos I've been taking care of my parents yard, and have been taking note of how you do things I've slowly gotten better, and now we can actually see our yard, and it's made them really happy My mom walked into our backyard and the first thing she said was, "Wow, we have a big backyard" It's been overgrown for years, but it's finally coming back
NIce job reducing the fire hazard in addition to improving the look. If a stray cigarette butt starts a grass fire, the house is in real jeopardy. That could put the neighbor's home at risk as well. Keep up the good work.
I mean you could spark a whole discussion on different cultural and economic theories. What he's doing is both "commune-ist" and capitalistic. Motives are blurred when he is using these videos to promote his business and gets a good chunk of change from the millions of views these generate. While he's certainly lending a helping hand, he's not leaving empty-handed.
Amazing lawn work as always, but I also truly admire your dedication to getting multiple camera angles of your work! That must take a lot of effort as well and it's impressive how you can juggle that in addition to the intense lawn care services you provide. Hope you're enjoying your summer!
Well done Spencer. It looks so much better now. The homeowner and the neighbourhood will be very grateful. Thanks for helping out your community and thanks for sharing the video.
If the homeowner or whoever is checking on the house hasn't been there since there was snow on the ground they don't care a whole lot about the house. It may hold bad memories for them and that is the reason they have let it go.
Wonderful job! Please protect yourself (nasal passages, throat, & lungs esp) when dealing with so much flying dust/dirt! You & your services are such a treasure!!
I thot I was invincible when I was 18. I screamed and cheered at our home coming foot ball game. I damaged my vocal coards and I now lose my voice if I talk much and I can't sing any more. I also had undiagnosed asthma since I was about 8. Back in the 50s nobody knew or talked about kids having a thing called asthma. I'm 67 now and am on oxygen full time. Protect your lungs and ears. You only get 1 pair each.
yes face masks during these clean ups are best, and I always wonder why the neighbors on either side of houses like this don't at least mow half of the front per person...it would be better then just letting it go , but this one looks 100% better then it did! Good job once again Spencer!!!
I like how I see the neighborhood come to life! I like how the neighbors come out and acknowledge the hard work and effort of you tearing "stuff" up and making it look better than great! It looks AMAZING 🤩
I can’t imagine the muscles you would need to do this hard work all day. Good for you for cleaning up the neighbourhood. A total act of service. Great job!!
It's all about endurance. Even if someone were built like 80's Arnold Schwarzenegger, they would still feel physically broken after a day of seriously back breaking yard work, because it's all in the muscles that normally aren't strained to such an absolute degree.
Wow. Spencer. You knocked this one out of the ball park. I’m sure the surrounding neighborhood appreciates your doing this. You are truly a wonderful person to do this for feee. Very professional. Thanks for a great video.
There are a couple of blokes in Australia who do this sort of thing too. One that comes to mind is Blade Mate Lawn Care. I know there are others, but I've watched Sean the most. This chap is doing a great job for your community. 👍👍👍
It seems no challenge is too much for you. It’s amazing what you do out of the kindness of your heart. It’s satisfying to see a yard come back to beauty.
I don't mean to detract from how awesome this is for everyone involved, but you realise he probably earnt about $1000 in ad revenue from TH-cam on this video alone right ? He is actually getting paid, just not from the homeowner :)
You do awesome work. I know there is a Mrs SB now. If she wants I would love to hand crochet her a blanket in her favorite colors if she would like one.
@@kathleenardrey5094 why the neighbors pay someone to handle other's yard ???lmao those neighbors didn't do anything wrong its the local government and the owner's fault
@@kathleenardrey5094,it's not the neighbors responsibility to tend that yard. It is solely the responsibility of the homeowners to maintain it. Either pay someone or do it themselves. Unable is not the same as unwilling.
Wow !!! What a difference. You must be a super hero in that neighborhood. You raised the value of that property as well as the value of every property on that street by doing what you did.
Such a lovely transformation... Thank you for your service to the community. It is for the safety of the neighbourhood as well. Having such abandon place is an eye sore as well. Keep up your good work
How did you know there wasn’t anything that could damage your equipment in the high grass? Way to go! It looks so much better! The neighbors of your cleanup yards must all be ecstatic!
I was thinking the same thing too...not sure if the owners would have wanted an abandoned house exposed for squatters to come but owners should be grateful for his work. Wonder if the owners ever get in touch?
I love love love how you systematically take these bad ass yards down, one bit then the next till you are done and they look so fab afterwards, you slay them! Keep up the awesome work!
So much on this one Spencer! You did the neighborhood a tremendous service! You made it cleaner, safer and more enjoyable for passers-by! Thank you for your hard work!
Everyone in that neighborhood is going to be happy, that you cleaned up that eye sore but the one who should be happy is the owner of the house. You just saved him or her a bunch of money in fines. Great job as always 😊
I don't know how your equipment stands up to such tough foliage! You did a remarkable job and all for free! You are such a good person to work so hard to help the neighbourhood. Well done. 👍Greetings from the UK 🇬🇧
You did an amazing job on this lot! My dad used to do lawns in the afternoon and we go with him and this was so relaxing to watch you do! Seems like squatters were hanging out in that back yard so it's nice you cleared everything. Amazing job!! You are so amazing!
Like so many others who’ve commented, I admire you for what you do. You work your ass off and deserve whatever compensation you get from your social media accounts. Please keep up the great work. If i were young again i would be doing the same thing. Blessings to you.

But I'm sure another factor is unrealistic expectations. That may well be a decent house, but since it doesn't have 4 bathooms or an 18-car garage, most may never consider it and instead continue to complain they're forking money over to a landlord instead.
@@sabretooth1997 One thing I had not considered until recently is these old homes that fall into disrepair it's not just about DIY knowledge, and getting them taken care of. That would be simple. The reality is these homes are full lead paint, asbestos tiles/insulation, and wiring that needs to be replaced. I don't know if you've ever lived in a home that only has two prong plugs, but it's crazy annoying. Getting a home like this up to code is very costly and not something youtube knowledge and elbow grease can fix.
@@sabretooth1997my complaint is its too close to the neighbor, i like being 1/4 mile from my closest one and sometimes wish it was twice that far lol
@@xDbrad yeah, like maybe they died or went to jail
That mower is a BEAST! Unbelievable!
So satisfying to watch! Cleaning up one neglected lawn at a time! You make a difference!!
I am just in awe! We owned a mowing business for a few years, and i KNOW the hard work you are donating! I pray you are extra blessed this year! I am subscribed and watch often!
Isn’t it great when even the neighbors appreciate what you do?
You deserve a medal for this one!
Not only did you substantially increase the value of this property, but also of his neighbors.
ibe....probably not. Abandoned houses tend to have their wiring and pipes stolen, which wrecks the house past the point of most renovations. If homeless people been in there, it's a surprise it hasn't burned down. The neighborhood is better off though and vagrants are less likely to target the house if it's not been stripped already.
@@gregblackburn4280 ibe?
@@gregblackburn4280 Nothing you just said even remotely refutes the point he made so why did you say "probably not"?
@@vinchinzo594 I don't recall us talking so I didn't "say" anything. I typed "probably not" because cutting the grass is not going to make up for pipes and wiring ripped out of the wall.

Go be a smart aleck to them. Your parents raised an idiot.
Sad to see so many abandoned homes. Thank you for doing you Spencer. Another fantastic job
As a neighbor to some who don't take care of their yard, I thank you! I've attempted to help people with these needs and many are grateful, but others can just continue to take and take so you tire of helping them over and over.
Also, I'm in the real estate industry. That futon and mattress pile may signify bed bugs or roaches. So make sure you're not bringing any friends home that are hard to get rid of!
maybe mind your buisness. not everybody wants your "help"
Uh, no, these people I was discussing continue to ask for help, and while you're helping them, they ask for other favors you weren't there to perform.
I think you could probably mind your own seeing as you have no idea what you're talking about.
This young man in this video is doing a great service to his community and the owners of the homes.
@@joaocosta3374 In my case, all my neighbors know I'm there. I ask them if I can clean up and mow their yards. Some ask me to do it.
If these owners in SB Mowing videos cared, they could possibly file a complaint and press charges or whatever. But who would? He's made the property pleasing and WAY better fit them and the neighborhood.
@@joaocosta3374 He always knocks on the door and ask for permission if the property isn't obviously abandoned which in this case its obviously is one. Yeah, the local government are supposed to be one cleaning the sidewalks but as you can see this property has been left like that for quite some time now.
@@wengoszmleczny2802Really??? Such a rude comment.
What an amazing transformation! Thank you for doing what you do
Thank you so much for watching!
I’m really surprised they and some others with the really tall grass haven’t gotten fined from the city yet. Thanks for helping all the neighbors out! When the grass gets that tall you start getting snakes, rodents, and all sorts of critters and bugs in there! Also be on the lookout when cleaning up the yards that have been neglected for a long time. One of the other TH-camrs that does this found a dead body in one of the cars in the back! 😱
Oh yikes! That would be scary!
I blame the municipality for letting it get this out of control. If I lived near that house I’d be calling the city every day. Great job on cleaning it up…
Thank you!
The city does not care
I agree.. I used to work for my cities DPW and my crew was in charge of cutting lots like these.. good job by the way too
Or.......you could help your neighborhood or neighbor by doing some clean up yourself, instead of reporting your neighbor to the authorities,
@@brendabelcher3197 I was just thinking the same thing.
You sir are a hardcore servant. Helping where it’s needed. I hope you have a million blessings come your way.
Kinda words. If we comment & like his videos, he can be compensated by TH-cam.
Oh he definitely has millions coming his way. Not to diminish what this man does but, he must also make a lot of money off these videos. All deserved
Good job Spencer I like the way you mowed over that tree on the side of the house
Beautiful job Spencer. I'm sure the neighbors are very happy not to have to look at that eyesore anymore.
Always amazed how the neighbors will complain but not lift a finger to cut the lawn or even help these generous lawn men when they come to do it free of charge !
Amen. My point exactly ‼️
Oh, come on. The neighbors have jobs, their own lives to live, and their own lawns to mow. My lawn is h*ell to cut. The last thing I want after mowing all that is mowing still more - and I don't remember you (or any of the other holier-than-thou women commenting under this or other such videos) ever offering to help.
@@robinstewart6510 Ha take it personal the comment. Must be you.
@@dougpassat .. Just stating the reality (which I'm part of) to counter her unreality.
Right
This was an epic clean up. I bet eventually you’ll get into real estate and start owning these abandoned properties. I never respected your lawn mover until THIS episode. Kudos sir!!!
Smart.. find a dilapidated house, purchase it, fix up the yard, pressure wash the house, fix what needs to be fixed with the YT revenue, rent it out, rinse and repeat.
That thing was cutting down TREES
I have been checking out other yard workers and there is none with the eye you have in how good your yards should look. God will bless you for your good heart. Your parents raised you right. I know they are so proud of you.
That was a crazy one! I’m always so amazed at how much you can plow down with that mower. Great job I’m sure the whole neighborhood was grateful❣️
The mower is a beast for sure! Thanks for watching.
Good grieve, you really made a difference. Everyone near by should be pleased with yard cleared and looking like someone cared. Great job !!
@@captainpearly3994 thats how i would mow. Plow everything down check for pipes etc… after running over. I like my equipment to be durable. Excellent job!
Wow!! That yard was horrible!! Another fantastic job Spencer!! Your kindness is appreciated!! You truly are an example that there are wonderful people in this world. Stay amazing Spencer!!👏👏♥️
I don’t know why the city doesn’t put you under contract w/them & get you paid for all the amazing work you do - another awsome job! 💕🙏🏼
I would do it for the city, but they charge the homeowner no matter what and put a lien on their home.
Plus they won’t earn any fines! They would lose revenue 🤨
Private property laws too. Should anything happen on the property and damage it, it’s the city who then goes to court. There’s also some pretty nasty people who would sue them over anything. Best not even get involved and allow every property owner to do what they believe is best. Even if it’s just properties like this, people will do what they can to get money from the city. This happens in court with basic small businesses too so you know it’ll happen if there’s a chance to sue the city.
👍
He gets some money from youtube and donos, owner doesn't have to pay anything and city doesn't have to worry about it. It's a win-win-win -situation.
Spectacular job Spencer! You went above,& beyond for this forgotten home. Hoping your equipment didn’t pay a high price for your generosity. Stay safe, healthy, happy, productive,& blessed.💯❤️👍🏾😀🙋🏽♀️✝️🙏🏾🇺🇸
Thank you for watching Glenda!
(psst. Spenctacular. ) 😂
@@SBMowing I like you Spencer, you're a cool cat!!
There's something oddly satisfying about watching your videos, Spencer. It's like a jigsaw puzzle in reverse where you take pieces out to get the complete picture! Same goes with the pressure washing. At 67 years old I love seeing young people being productive and adding to society! I pray that God will bless you in all your endeavors!
Incredible work as always! I love how that mower obliterates everything in it's path!
Yeah, he said it was really tall grass at the beginning, but he was cutting down full sized trees 😂
Along with your amazing mowing skills you are an amazing editor. The transitions are flawless. They flow so naturally. BTW congrats on your marriage. Best to both of you!!😊
What a dramatic transformation. Thanks for making your community a better place to live, one house at a time. God bless you.
It looks great. I'm sure the entire neighborhood appreciates what you did. However yards that overgrown can be havens for snakes, so please be careful when moving or sitting on stuff left out in the yard, like futons.
That’s probably why the neighbours are not helping to mow🐍🕷🐜🐍🦟🪰🐍
Why don't the neighbors help? They obviously fo not care! Welcome to America. Nice job. Thank you for being a good neighbor to a community that let this happen and could not be bothered themselves!
I love these videos
I've been taking care of my parents yard, and have been taking note of how you do things
I've slowly gotten better, and now we can actually see our yard, and it's made them really happy
My mom walked into our backyard and the first thing she said was, "Wow, we have a big backyard"
It's been overgrown for years, but it's finally coming back
Awesome 🤩
Well done sir
AMAZING! :D
NIce job reducing the fire hazard in addition to improving the look. If a stray cigarette butt starts a grass fire, the house is in real jeopardy. That could put the neighbor's home at risk as well. Keep up the good work.
This World needs more people like him.
The world needs more people that take care of their property. Pride in ownership is becoming non existent.
@steverobinson1334 exactly! You're part of the problem with society.
Yes
💯💯💯💯
I mean you could spark a whole discussion on different cultural and economic theories. What he's doing is both "commune-ist" and capitalistic. Motives are blurred when he is using these videos to promote his business and gets a good chunk of change from the millions of views these generate. While he's certainly lending a helping hand, he's not leaving empty-handed.
Amazing lawn work as always, but I also truly admire your dedication to getting multiple camera angles of your work! That must take a lot of effort as well and it's impressive how you can juggle that in addition to the intense lawn care services you provide. Hope you're enjoying your summer!
Wow... Lotsa free work.... Happy you have the strength to do this heavy labor job...
What a mess that was. You made it look 100% better. God bless.
Well done Spencer. It looks so much better now. The homeowner and the neighbourhood will be very grateful. Thanks for helping out your community and thanks for sharing the video.
Am sure the neighborhood definitely appreciates it! 👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍
Thank you so much!
If the homeowner or whoever is checking on the house hasn't been there since there was snow on the ground they don't care a whole lot about the house. It may hold bad memories for them and that is the reason they have let it go.
Wonderful job!
Please protect yourself (nasal passages, throat, & lungs esp) when dealing with so much flying dust/dirt!
You & your services are such a treasure!!
it looks so dry
Ditto x 2 . Please,please wear more ear protection. You're a good guy bud.
I thot I was invincible when I was 18. I screamed and cheered at our home coming foot ball game. I damaged my vocal coards and I now lose my voice if I talk much and I can't sing any more. I also had undiagnosed asthma since I was about 8. Back in the 50s nobody knew or talked about kids having a thing called asthma. I'm 67 now and am on oxygen full time. Protect your lungs and ears. You only get 1 pair each.
yes face masks during these clean ups are best, and I always wonder why the neighbors on either side of houses like this don't at least mow half of the front per person...it would be better then just letting it go , but this one looks 100% better then it did! Good job once again Spencer!!!
You popped up by surprise. It made me smile. Thanks for you being such an amazing guy. Don’t change we need more men like you!
That's a great transformation, it looked 1000 percent better..great job!!
Spencer, your projects get harder and harder. Kudos! You’re a magician!
I bet all the neighbors appreciate your hardwork. You did a great job.
I hope so!
Screw the neighbors-they never lifted a finger or made a phone call to stop this growing mess.
@@kathleenardrey5094 how do you know they never called anyone or did anything? You live in the neighborhood?
I just found your channel. I’ve been watching ALL day!!! It is a good work you are doing. This transformation is unbelievable!!!
Thank you so much!
Wow the view down the driveway to the street was such a dramatic change.
Just cleaning up the driveway alone made a huge difference.
I like how I see the neighborhood come to life! I like how the neighbors come out and acknowledge the hard work and effort of you tearing "stuff" up and making it look better than great! It looks AMAZING 🤩
I can’t imagine the muscles you would need to do this hard work all day. Good for you for cleaning up the neighbourhood. A total act of service. Great job!!
It's all about endurance. Even if someone were built like 80's Arnold Schwarzenegger, they would still feel physically broken after a day of seriously back breaking yard work, because it's all in the muscles that normally aren't strained to such an absolute degree.
You are the best young man, we need more like you.
Wow. Spencer. You knocked this one out of the ball park. I’m sure the surrounding neighborhood appreciates your doing this. You are truly a wonderful person to do this for feee. Very professional. Thanks for a great video.
I appreciate that!
There are a couple of blokes in Australia who do this sort of thing too. One that comes to mind is Blade Mate Lawn Care. I know there are others, but I've watched Sean the most. This chap is doing a great job for your community. 👍👍👍
Wow !! You killed it again !! Keep it up !!! You do great work!!
Amazing job. I am sure the neighbors will appreciate your hard work.
It seems no challenge is too much for you. It’s amazing what you do out of the kindness of your heart. It’s satisfying to see a yard come back to beauty.
I don't mean to detract from how awesome this is for everyone involved, but you realise he probably earnt about $1000 in ad revenue from TH-cam on this video alone right ?
He is actually getting paid, just not from the homeowner :)
That’s why he needs likes and subscribers
You do awesome work. I know there is a Mrs SB now. If she wants I would love to hand crochet her a blanket in her favorite colors if she would like one.
It's the neighbors I feel most sorry for, having to look at that mess day in and day out. I'm sure they appreciate your hard work. Well done.
Screw the neighbors-they, and their local government, allowed this property to get into this state.
@@kathleenardrey5094 why the neighbors pay someone to handle other's yard ???lmao those neighbors didn't do anything wrong its the local government and the owner's fault
@@MonicaHolly143 you don’t have to pay someone to maintain the lawn. You can just have one of the neighbor’s mow it themselves every few weeks.
@@kathleenardrey5094,it's not the neighbors responsibility to tend that yard. It is solely the responsibility of the homeowners to maintain it. Either pay someone or do it themselves. Unable is not the same as unwilling.
Wow !!! What a difference.
You must be a super hero in that neighborhood.
You raised the value of that property as well as the value of every property on that street by doing what you did.
You are a nice person. Thanks for your help
Such a lovely transformation... Thank you for your service to the community. It is for the safety of the neighbourhood as well. Having such abandon place is an eye sore as well. Keep up your good work
Spencer you did an awesome job! What a transformation! Keep up the good work!
Thanks so much!
I wish I could my hands on power washing and painting the outside of that adorable house! It has so much potential! 😍
How did you know there wasn’t anything that could damage your equipment in the high grass? Way to go! It looks so much better! The neighbors of your cleanup yards must all be ecstatic!
Except the guy that was throwing bags of dog shit across the fence, now he needs to find a new place :(
@@aspyr5681 no he doesn't. He just should find a new place.
I was wondering the same thing. Maybe he does a walk through beforehand off camera to make sure but idk. It makes me nervous every time I watch! Lol
I was thinking the same thing too...not sure if the owners would have wanted an abandoned house exposed for squatters to come but owners should be grateful for his work. Wonder if the owners ever get in touch?
@@CyndiLHTall weeds are not going to deter squatters, in my opinion.
I love love love how you systematically take these bad ass yards down, one bit then the next till you are done and they look so fab afterwards, you slay them! Keep up the awesome work!
One of the most incredible transformations I've seen him do yet. Fantastic!
Spencer, you do a great service to these communities. Be careful out there though. The world needs you. Protect yourself including you ears. God Bless
Also should wear a respirator when blowing all that dirt around
Amazing job! Love watching you transform the over grown yards. Keep up the good work .Be Blessed young man❤️❤️
Thanks! You too!
That was really helpful. It certainly makes it nice for the neighbors.
You did an amazing job on that yard. I bet the folks next door was thrilled to see that yard mowed. Great transformation. Have a wonderful weekend
Another gem. You’re the Michael Jordan of these types of videos. And my own lawn looks 10x better since I started watching. Thank you!
My full respect my guy... nobody does something for free now days...love your videos..
So much on this one Spencer! You did the neighborhood a tremendous service! You made it cleaner, safer and more enjoyable for passers-by! Thank you for your hard work!
Everyone in that neighborhood is going to be happy, that you cleaned up that eye sore but the one who should be happy is the owner of the house. You just saved him or her a bunch of money in fines. Great job as always 😊
What a transformation. I’m sure all the neighbours are just thrilled with your work 🇨🇦♥️🇨🇦
I don't know how your equipment stands up to such tough foliage!
You did a remarkable job and all for free!
You are such a good person to work so hard to help the neighbourhood. Well done. 👍Greetings from the UK 🇬🇧
You did an amazing job on this lot! My dad used to do lawns in the afternoon and we go with him and this was so relaxing to watch you do! Seems like squatters were hanging out in that back yard so it's nice you cleared everything. Amazing job!! You are so amazing!
A very good man......
Big heart and strong back !!
Like so many others who’ve commented, I admire you for what you do. You work your ass off and deserve whatever compensation you get from your social media accounts. Please keep up the great work. If i were young again i would be doing the same thing. Blessings to you.
And by all means, wear some type of mask when tackling these horrible yards.
Vc fez um ótimo trabalho e os vizinhos deviam te agradecer e muito por ter cortado o mato, eu é que nunca hei de querer ter por vizinha uma casa abandonada. Com tanto mato grande e entulhos. Deus me livre. Parabéns 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
Thank you for helping the neighbors out! God bless you. 😊
Great service for the community. You made the whole area safer for residents and the police. Fewer places for bad things to happen unaware. Thank you so much for making your corner of the world a better place. It matters!
You are a wonderful man! That took a lot of work!! there’s not too many men in the world that would go out of their way And do this over and over for people in need anymore!Thank you sir!
Wow another great job can't believe how large that front sidewalk is looks nice
I want to tell you thank you so much for all the help and hard work you do. You always make the yards look amazing!!! I have watched every single one of your videos and I honestly think you are so caring and way awesome at what you do. THANK YOU Spencer
I'm sure the neighbors appreciate what you did more than you'll ever know.
Screw the neighbors-they never lifted a finger or made a phone call to stop this horrible deterioration.
@@kathleenardrey5094 Never be quick to judge. You never know what the situation is. The ower could be bed-ridden or have a disability and maybe don't have the money to pay someone to clean it up.
I hope they do!
@@simmzzzz we’re not talking about the owner. The house is abandoned. The neighbors did nothing to keep the house maintained in the owner’s absence.
