Larry's Yardwork and Weeding -- $40/hr (Boulder)
QR Code Link to This Post
My name is Larry and I'd love to offer you some support if you're looking to clean up your property or need weeding done. I also love to help folks who are getting ready to sell their home and need it looking nice.
I know it's hard to find someone you can trust and who is reliable. I have most of my own tools and my own transportation. Have references available upon request if needed as well. Sober. Flexible. Calm. I work hard and fast, and am thorough with attention to detail, with the aim of restoring energy to a landscape. My goal is always to leave it so you only need me to come out a few times a year, or so that you can manage it yourself going forward without additional help.
When you reach out please send me pictures of the areas or projects you need done. If you can't take pictures for any reason just send me a good description of what you require.
*Please Note: I cannot haul away any debris. I can get some brown yard bags for you on my way in ($5 for 5 pack) if you need or if you have a compost/ trash bin you want me to use thats great. I don't do mowing, as I just have a Toyota Corolla, but can mow for you if you have one of your own. I can trim with my weed wacker too if you like.
What I Can Help With:
- Yard Maintenance and Cleanup
- Weed Removal and Pulling
- Weed Management (Spray)
- Mulching, Gardening, Planting, Basic Hardscaping and Tree Trimming
- Organizing, Household Projects, Garages and General Labor
- Routine and Seasonal Service + Misc. Tasks
- Special Service: Tree of Heaven Treatment and Mitigation
- Light Xeriscaping
Service Rates:
**For General Yardwork and Weeding:**
My base rate is $150 per service call. This covers a 3-hour minimum window of work. Additional time after that is billed at $40/hr.
**For Spraying and Weed Management:**
If you want me to spray chemicals for weed management that you bought I can for an additional $50 fee.
Even if you don't have me do it, I will help you identify the areas you want to spray and what products, according to your needs. This is the most cost-effective way for weed management, especially in our very dry Colorado.
**Tree of Heaven Treatment:**
Tree of Heaven is an invasive weed species to Colorado that is often confused for the native Sumac. Effectively removing almost always requires systemic treatment. Every situation is different. I use a solution of triclopyr-4 herbicide and a combination of hack-and-squirt, cut stump and basal bark application. Please contact me with pictures for a quote.
**Organizing and Cleaning**
If you have a garage, warehouse or indoor space that needs cleaning up and organizing I can help with that also. My standard rate for general yardwork and weeding applies.
If you need real guidance and help downsizing and getting rid of stuff, my wife is a professional organizer and I can refer you to her.
**Xeriscaping**
My current goal is to get into Sustainable Landscape Management. I don't have the means for medium to large projects, but for single family homes I can help you create a plan and DIY execute, hopefully for much cheaper.
