Cool befores and after

Just a couple of before and after pics. Client hated the trees and bed area, as they were done by ex-wife. Really enjoyed this short project, and she has been one of my best promoters. Her son is going to work for me this summer. Best part of the job, happy client!

Thanks.

We removed the stone, old landscape fabric and shrubs, then installed the curbing, new landscape fabric, shrubs and bark chips. Was a three day project for me and another guy. If I recall correctly the cost to her was about $5000.

It looks good! After you performed the job, would you have done anything differently or bid it differently?

I was very happy with the job, went according to plan. Spent half a day longer than I thought, but that was just bad time scheduling in my head for shrub removal.

I did learn that I schedule bigger jobs by the day, not half days as sometimes things happen that you have no control over.

How did you end up pulling out the shrubs?

We slowly dug around them with a shovel until we could loosen up the roots enough to pull them out. Which is why I miscalculated the time, took longer than I expected as we ran into some tough ones.
