First and foremost let me say I am NOT a gardener. I never claimed to be and I never will be! I know plenty of people that truly enjoy planting flowers and picking weeds…. I am NOT one of those people. Yard work is one of the few “man jobs” around the house and with all the hours my husband works, he has a hard time staying on top of it.

That being said, our yard tends to get neglected quite a  bit. Needless to say, I was thrilled to have a professional come out and really clean up the yard! I found a local landscaper called New Life Outdoors through RedBeacon!

New Life Outdoors did a marvelous job! Above and beyond what I expected! They were equipped with all the proper lawn tools and it still took three men more than three hours to complete the job! They were very thorough and competed everything I had asked them to do. They cleaned out my flower beds near my stairs! I don’t think they’ve been that clean since we moved in!

New Life Outdoors also trimmed the shrubs, cleared out all the limbs, and even pulled out the spots of grass peeking through the driveway. To finish it all off, they blew all the excess grass and leaves off the driveway and both my front and back porch!
