24/7 Express Handyman Service confirms the address, the zone rate and the dispatch fee, and takes a card, before rolling.
The best time is just after the first hard frost, once perennial foliage has browned but before the ground is under snow. USU Extension names just after the first hard frost as the best time to cut back annuals and perennials, and puts the final lawn mowing between late October and early November.
No, diseased plant material should be thrown away rather than composted. Healthy spent plants can go in a compost pile or to a green waste facility, which is what USU Extension recommends for non-diseased garden and bed cleanup.
Only dead, diseased or hazardous branches should come off in fall. Heavy pruning of trees and shrubs delays dormancy and makes them more open to winter damage, so USU Extension advises waiting until mid to late winter for ornamental trees.
If snow is forecast and the leaves and spent plants are still down, do not let them mat under the snow all winter. 24/7 Express Handyman Service can clear the yard and haul the debris before it freezes in place.
Every job 24/7 Express Handyman Service takes on is under $3,000 including labor, materials and any change orders (Utah Code §58-55-305); a change that would push a job over that line is referred to a licensed contractor, not written up as a second job. plumbing, electrical, HVAC, gas appliance / combustion system work is referred to a licensed trade.
