The Struggles of an Unkempt Yard

When tenants leave a property, it’s not uncommon to find the yard in poor shape. An unkept yard can include:

Overgrown Grass & Weeds: Without regular mowing and weed control, lawns can become an eyesore, making the entire property look rundown.

Neglected Shrubs & Trees: Bushes, trees, and hedges left without pruning can grow wildly, making the yard look chaotic and untidy.

Debris & Trash: Leftover debris like branches, leaves, and even trash can accumulate, contributing to a sense of neglect.

Weed Overgrowth in Garden Beds: Gardens that were once a selling point may become overrun with weeds, detracting from the home’s curb appeal.

For landlords, the time and energy required to clean up a yard can be overwhelming. You may not have the right tools or expertise, and dealing with a heavily overgrown yard can feel like a daunting task.

The Benefits of a Professional Yard Clean-Up Service

Instead of trying to manage the clean-up yourself, hiring a professional yard clean-up service can make all the difference. At Lee’s General Landscaping, we specialize in tackling overgrown and neglected rental properties, making them more appealing to potential tenants. Here are a few key benefits of outsourcing this work:

Efficiency & Speed: A professional team can complete the clean-up in a fraction of the time it would take a landlord working alone. They have the right tools and expertise to get the job done quickly and efficiently.

Attention to Detail: A well-kept yard goes beyond mowing the grass. We offer full-service clean-ups, including weeding, pruning trees and bushes, removing debris, and more to ensure your property looks pristine.

Increased Property Value: A neat, appealing yard can significantly increase the curb appeal and overall value of your rental property, making it easier to attract and retain high-quality tenants.

Low-Maintenance Solutions: After the initial clean-up, we offer options like mulch application and weed prevention strategies to keep your yard looking great for longer periods with minimal upkeep.

Regular Yard Maintenance: Like a Haircut for Your Property

Think of yard maintenance for your rental property as similar to getting a haircut. Regular trims and touch-ups keep everything looking neat and tidy, preventing larger, more difficult problems from arising. Just as you wouldn’t wait months between haircuts, maintaining your property’s yard on a regular basis ensures it always looks its best and remains appealing to prospective tenants.

A reliable yard service not only saves you time and effort but also ensures that your property’s exterior consistently looks well-maintained, even after a tenant moves out.

Scott’s Experience: A Testimonial

Scott A. from Lake City, WA, faced this exact challenge when his tenants left his rental property with a neglected yard. He shares his experience:

“Lee came over to our rental house in Lake City to clean up the yard after the tenants who had moved out neglected it. He showed up for the estimate 1/2 hour early to give me a quote. The price was in line with another estimate I had gotten, but based on the Yelp reviews I had read, I decided to go with him. Boy, am I glad I did! When he was done, it looked fabulous. I would recommend him to anyone looking for a reasonably priced yard clean-up.”

Scott’s experience highlights how beneficial it is to have a trusted professional like Lee’s General Landscaping handle post-tenant clean-up. His yard looked fabulous, and the property became ready for its next tenants in no time.
