Hi Everyone! Come along with us as we set out to complete 9 lawns by the end of the day! We show you the properties, tell you about them and even how much the clients pay for lawn service. We encounter challenges like mechanical issues, losing a client and on one property we're confronted by the homeowner about heat exhaustion stating that, "It's NOT WORTH IT!"
This video documents the before, during and after transformation of the properties. Hope you all enjoy!

I used to help all my neighbors. Removing snow from their walks and driveways, mowing their lawns when they had problems. Never took a dime. Now that they have money, and I became disabled, what do I get from them. Calls to the township, because my lawn is to high, my antique truck, in my driveway. A guy I helped about 40 years ago, get his lawn business started, and never took a dime from him, heard about my plight. He showed up one day, mowed, weed wacked and blew everything clean. He comes every week, and won’t take a dime.

I pay $30 for front and back mowing, edging, weedeating and blowing. He mows weekly in the Spring and bi-weekly in the summer when the rain stops. I've tried to pay him more but he insists that since he's been doing my yard for 12 years that my price will never go up. I've also sent 7 new customers his way over that time. And I mail him a $125 check every Christmas as a bonus thank you.

$40 is unheard of for the size of those yards with everything you are doing here in Ohio. You need to charge an overgrowth fee for customers who take advantage of not getting regular yard service letting their yards get higher than normal. I absolutely agree with you on the fee for the veteran. With the cost of gas and wear and tear you really need to increase your prices with every thing you do for them. Even if it's $10-$15. They shouldn't have any problem knowing the rise in cost of living if they have any integrity at all.

@@kennylavay8492 He could charge more and still do that, and he'd actually make some money that way. That overgrown lawn he does for no extra charge, I'd charge around $100 for that and here that would be considered reasonable. Then again, we're working in 105-110 degree temps all summer so we probably get to charge a little more because of that. Let's just say if I was charging the same rates he is, I'd be struggling to make ends meet. Just doing the math, if he charged $60 for all 9 of the lawns he planned to do that day, that's only $540 gross revenue! If his expenses were only $100/day that leaves $220 per person for an 8-10hr day, and that has to pay for new equipment, vehicles, and trailers when the time comes. I'm by no means trying to toot my own horn here because I just happen to live in an awesome city for a lawn biz, but I pay my foreman $242 for a 10hr day. I have 3 workers who do all the work while I run the business. Average gross is around $1500/day, net profit average this year so far is $586/day. We retain almost all customers until they move somewhere, and I turn down more business than I take because we stick to a tight service area and still get more business than we can handle. What I've found matters more than anything is your reputation. A lot of people are willing to pay a premium just to know they can trust you, you're reliable, and you'll cover anything you damage. In this industry you aren't selling the work, you're selling yourself. I will say that he's probably not doing what he does for the money and if that's OK with him, I think that's extremely generous and selfless. I just hope he's making enough one way or another to live comfortably because he certainly deserves that much.

As one who had a mowing service 20 years ago, I think your prices are really reasonable considering you have a good rider mower and most of the homes were pretty clean without too many obstacles. If you didn't have to quit early because of the heat it would've been a decent day for ya. I do agree with that homeowner though. Take care of her and don't push it too much. I've come close to heat exhaustion a few times. Not fun.

The leaves you can use in a salad or stew and the root is like a small radish. Goats are great to keep the weeds and grass low, could you imagine how many goats we would need lol. Ages ago a farmer up north drove his cattle down to market and along the way the cattle ate all the tall grass on the side of the road. Fattening the cattle for free.

You remind me of myself 25 years ago when I detailed vehicles. Wash vacuum and armor all,clean windows for $15 and should have been $25. And I did it for this price because it gave me a reason to get out the house and I did it in a reasonable time. Alot of people took advantage of my kindness and a few paid me more. I quit doing it due to a customer cussing me out because I didn't get the water spots off the window. I told him I did that free because I wanted to see if the new product would work and I told him before I started. I told him you don't pay me enough and this isn't my full-time job. I did it because I enjoyed it and you took the fun out of it. Please tell everyone in the condo complex, I quit because of you. So please make sure you are making enough. I'm pretty sure you have support from the channel but don't go broke. The first yard you showed $40 was a good size lawn and my opinion you should charge more.My full-time job was a chemical lawn care specialist and did it for 25 years and loved it until my first of 2 heart attacks,13 strokes and 4 ablations in a 10 year period.

He dropped me after two weeks, and said even though he loved the quality of the service he was going to have a family friend take over for less money. LOL, I said no problem, and good luck. :)

We were paying as much as $100 and needed a new service every year because nobody wanted to come back the next year. We live on the side of a hill and it’s a real challenge because only about half the yard can be done with a mower and the other half needs to be done with the trimmer. We are now on our 3rd season with a guy that only charges $45 and hope he never retires.

Keep up your electrolytes (as well as water) in this hot weather. Heat stroke can be very dangerous so take care. You will have to quote more if people don’t want (or cannot afford) to have their lawns cut more often, because you are going to have to do more than one pass and wear and tear on your equipment. I think most customers would understand that. If they are not happy they can always get quotes from elsewhere.

Personally I have never had to pay anyone to mow my grass and I am 65 years old. I live on 8 acres in the country and purchased a 54 inch zero turn when my husband passed away. Your prices seem extremely reasonable to me!!! Thanks for making my day!!!

If the belt was just replaced it was more than likely squeezed in between a idler pulley and a drive pulley. Damage is done on the inside and not noticeable on the outside. Had it happen to three belts one summer on a finish mower before I figured it out. In my defense I was getting it through the small gap with just my hands by rotating the pulley. Also wasn’t thinking about the stress I was causing to the belt. 120 dollar lesson to not be lazy.

The price should be based on lot size, how much you have to move to do it, if they are on a regular schedule, and how much grief the client gives. If they ever not pay in a timely fashion they should be removed as a client or given a “unknown your a piece of crap $20 fee” for being trifling. Every customer isn’t a joy to work with, don’t feel bad about the $20 piece of crap fee. Remember they can always find someone else if they don’t like your price hike. My exhusband was a paint contractor and he added a “I knew you were going to be trouble fee”. He would add that to his quote and hope they got lower quotes they went with. If he did get stuck with them he had an incentive to take the job even though he knew they would be a Karen.

I owned a lawn care business for a number of years you asked about the pricing as long as they're not that type of customer that ask for something special every time or wants to go a month-and-a-half between cuts I used to stick with my customers and didn't mess with their pricing too much as long as it's in the same general area is other cut and you're not burning additional gas going to it I found the best investment on my equipment was blades blades blades I swapped my blades out at least every day sometimes in the middle of the day a lot of people think that is too much first it looks better and you're spending much less time going back doing multiple passes

I own my own house keeping business. I have clients that I charge very minimal amounts aswell, but those clients have referred me to many other customers and I will leave those prices alone. But as I aquire more clients, my prices have increased to my new clientele due how expensive gas and EVERYTHING IS. But the referrals I get are what keeps me in business as I do not advertise and word of mouth is how I expand. So if that $40 client has been helpful in those ways, keep the price the same. But if they wait too long and make your job harder in doing so, politely and professionally let them know that gas prices and supplies rates have recently gone through the roof and increase your rate. They will understand, or if they don't you may not need there business.

Bless your heart for knowing how to mow grass in a Southern state. The companies around here cut at an inch and a half! It's scalped. You can seriously see the soil under the grass. I do my own with a mulch mower at two and a half inches. My neighbors all wonder why my grass is green in the middle of summer while theirs is shriveling up and turning brown. 😂😂😂

For the home with the septic in front yard. Maybe a nice flower bed would help out. Because of the extra water in that area the flower bed would grow great and would not need to be watered much if at all. Cutting around a nice flower bed should not be as hard as having to mow that area at three different heights to make outcome look right. Just a thought.

It’s the size and difficulty of the lawn. Weed whacking and edging are included. Always tell them trimming bushes, trees, and bagging leaves and collecting anything off the property are extra costs, make them sign a simple agreement, get it on camera.

I hired some guys to do a spring clean-up (aerating, thatching etc) and they charged me so LITTLE that I argued with them and paid them twice what they asked for. He came the next year with a more reasonable price and said that I was right and that his accountant brother also got on his case about his low prices. He is still in business ... moved on to commercial properties unfortunately!
