"Very reliable and easy to work with. Our original bathroom was wearing out. We had tiles coming loose in the shower area and in general was badly in need of an update. We went down to the studs in many areas and now have a bathroom we really enjoy. part of the project involved replacing the old shallow tub with a new soaker tub which my spouse uses on a regular basis. Also we used Shannon's company to remodel my mother's home which was built in the 50's and badly needed updating. It still had the original electrical system which I felt was becoming a dangerous situation. The original plumbing had issues and the basement was an outdated mess. Along with updating the electrical and plumbing we did a complete remodel of the kitchen and basement. The kitchen change was tremendous and now even has an actual dishwasher instead of my mother. The basement was redone down to the studs and now has a bathroom and shower that you are actually happy to use. While the new floor was being installed we had them add electrical in floor heating and now the basement can be comfortably used year around."

"I recently hired Andrew?s Lawn and Snow for snow removal services, and I am beyond impressed with the exceptional service they provided! From start to finish, the experience was seamless and stress-free. The team was punctual, arriving exactly when they said they would, and immediately got to work clearing my driveway and walkways. What stood out to me the most was their attention to detail. Not only did they clear the snow efficiently, but they also made sure to spread salt, preventing any ice buildup. The results were flawless?no more worrying about slippery patches or digging out from a snowstorm. Andrew?s Lawn and Snow made the entire process so convenient, and their customer service was top-notch. The crew was friendly, professional, and thorough, making sure everything was done to perfection. I highly recommend their snow removal services to anyone in need. They?re reliable, efficient, and truly take pride in their work!"

Most residential lawn removal projects don't require permits, but regulations vary significantly between municipalities. You might need authorization when removing substantial soil volumes or making major landscape alterations. Contact your local building department or planning office before beginning work. Some homeowners associations also maintain specific landscaping requirements that could affect your plans, so reviewing any applicable community guidelines is equally important.
Converting removed lawn material into compost is often feasible when the grass hasn't received extensive chemical treatments. For best results, break larger sod pieces into smaller sections and combine them with other compostable materials in a dedicated composting system. Regular turning accelerates decomposition and produces nutrient-rich material that can benefit your new landscape. This approach reduces disposal costs while creating valuable soil amendments for future gardening projects.
Using a mechanical sod cutter delivers the most efficient results for most properties. These specialized machines cleanly separate grass and shallow roots from the soil below, allowing for rapid removal across substantial areas. While manual approaches cost less initially, they progress much more slowly. Chemical methods require extended time periods for complete effectiveness. For optimal efficiency, evaluate equipment rental costs against professional service rates, particularly for medium to large properties.
New plantings can begin one to two weeks after lawn removal, provided you've addressed any soil contamination concerns and completed necessary grading or amendments. The removal process often disturbs dormant weed seeds, so monitoring for unwanted growth during this transition period is advisable. Professional soil testing helps identify any nutrient deficiencies or pH imbalances that should be corrected before investing in new plantings or turf installation.
Lawn removal frequently alters how water moves across your property, particularly during heavy rainfall. Established grass root systems help stabilize soil and absorb precipitation, functions that disappear with removal. Your replacement landscape plan should address potential drainage changes through appropriate grading, soil amendments, or dedicated drainage features. Observing water movement patterns after removal provides valuable information for addressing any problematic areas before completing your new landscape installation.
