This DISASTER is beyond WORDS | Watch Me RESTORE a Neglected Yard!

My long time viewers that have been following along for some time will be asking questions about the different house shown at the start of the video. Well, I've just upgraded to a bigger residence🎉. I'm still waiting for most of my new furniture to arrive, so that's why it looks a bit sparse in places. It's good, though, much more space compared to my old unit. I'm going to keep the unit and it will become a rental. And I will be a good landlord! Ok, back to the cleanup…so…some of you will probably remember this property because I've already done 5 episodes here. Back then I decided not to clean up the backyard and some of the front as it was just too crazy. Well, I've had a change of heart, and I'm back to finish off the whole lot. And when I say this yard is crazy, I mean CRAZY! It's full of blackberries, rubbish, old trees and what's left of the garden beds. To get this property back up to scratch, I would say it going to be quite a few episodes. I'm going to do the best I can here, as the homeowner really needs the help. I'm also going to go back over the work I've done, as I could have done better! I hope you enjoy the episode and stay tuned for the biggest transformation I've ever done - What a challenge! All up, I spent around 12 hours on this episode, including 4 trips to the landfill. This is episode 6 of 11.

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 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.

How have you only got 61k subscribers? Come on people, doesn't cost anything to subscribe. George is working his butt off!

I’m a 67 year old mother of 7 grandmother of 5 married for 49 years and my kids make fun of me for watching George’s channel. I tell them if I watch on Saturday morning he motivates me to get moving and get something done. If I watch him at night it relaxes me and helps me sleep. Don’t knock it until you try it. Thank you George for always being someone I can count on ❤️

[debbiearthur]

I love that you are so clean and organized. Everything has it's place in work and home. That's why your videos are a pleasure to watch. 😊😊😊

Thank you for all you’ve done for this woman and all the other people you’ve helped over the years! ❤️😎❤️

[susanmoore]

This has been one of my favourite cleanups you’ve done since I first subscribed with you. I love how methodical you are but I also appreciate how deserving these people are of your work. Mental illness particularly when severe is so difficult on families and this must be a huge weight off their minds. Bravo to you

[laharrison]

I can't believe the size of the branches on these brambles. You are amazing. I just knew your home would be neat and organized.😊

[annmarieladis]

Holy cow! The enormous amount of effort it is taking to clear this property is sobering.

[Toinette]

George I hope you realize how important what you do is. It’s such a blessing not only to the person you’re doing the work for but also for the neighbors and the community. It is also a blessing to you to be able to help others that are in need. I know it’s hard work but I hope it gives you satisfaction in how this changes someone’s life. It fills my heart just to watch you do what you do. God bless you for being so kind❣️

[kimgray]

George this home owner must be appreciative for all the hard work you’ve done ❤
Anybody else would have charged them thousands of dollars to do all that you have done for free, god bless you ❤

[annezeigler]

Your home and car are just as spotless as your transformed properties. Good work George!👍🎉

[lynnmorang]

The kitty is the inspector, he's just checking on the progress of the renovation! 😂😂❤❤

[danajhasalvegas]

Rubbish removed! Yes.... crazy disaster indeed. I'm so impressed, brilliant!!! 🎉 you sir are a neat freak, sooo organized and living a minimalistic life style. No clutter no nothing... now I understand your clean compulsive clean ups. I bet your mom was so happy with you growing up.

Your passion shows with every yard you tackle, this video shows mental health decline on the owners son. His mind full of chaos. I hope his family was able to help him

[wendyhoffman]

[donnaolson]

Thanks for sharing your morning routine. Everything is so organized. Found the brushing of the walls in the covered area oddly satisfying!

[Bluridgegirl]
