For anyone who needs reasonably priced, professional yard work, contact Steese at 412.404.2186. He and his crew work for a large local landscaping contractor; they are all natives of Jamaica and live on my street throughout the landscaping season. They have been doing this for years and they are reliable and trustworthy. My yard looks like a million bucks. I arranged for a delivery of mulch and bought some new plants, and they worked wonders for a great price.
Because they work full-time, they hire out for Sundays, or perhaps a Saturday, though this may be rare at this time of year.
