Code enforcement HUNTED ME DOWN to SAVE homeowner from a VIOLATION
DID I BITE OF MORE THEN I CAN CHEW?

I ended up spending 2 days at this property and barely put a dent in the yard so this video is me coming back to make this neglected yard a beautiful home again! Alot of surprises along the way, let me know what you think of the transformation!! LOVE YALL!!

You'll be joining a good pack of Good Samaritans, like Al Baldez in this video, or also the owner of this other channel SB Mowing who mows and does water pressure finish as well.... There's also a man who does tours around the 50 US states and started a movement called Young Men Raising Lawn Care. He challenges kids - boys or girls- to volunteer to do 50 yards free for the veterans, elderly and single parents in their neighborhoods. His organisation provides them the mower and accessories they need. The kids do it on their time, between a few months, a year or even two years. They can pledge as a team of 2 or 3 as well. Some of them have been recognized by their local news and or city officials. Soooo you'd be doing an awesome addition to the volume of goodwill on that field !!! Really hoping you'll do it, I suggest dropping some of the news on social media as well. Does not need to be as sophisticated as the 3 examples I cited above. Why ? Because You got inspired to step up and serve also. You will inspire others as well... And more kindness will make more people relieved of their yard maintenance problems You never know who you'll be inspiring. In advance, bravo for your initiative 😊

It's a risk though. Get caught doing it and lawfully, everybody is entitled to not have to follow the rules any longer. Nearby here code enforcement was slacking off with an illegal dwelling reasoning the boomers inside needed help. It burned down. Two fatalities, three people sueing the city because the boomers being dead and their estates being penniless aren't going to pay for the damages the fire caused. Those involved are probably getting fired, but at best receive formal reprimands that means no raise for a couple years and forget about promotion. I've always found the most human method is to best strict. People will fix their problems instead of those getting so big they get killed by the problems, metaphorically or literally.

It’s interesting to me that neighbors that walk by a neighbors property everyday that’s in need of a bit of tlc, would rather walk on by and not lift a hand to help one of their own. I suppose they don’t understand that helping neighbors this way, also helps maintain their own property values. Thanks for all you do for others who may not be able to do this themselves for whatever reason. You & others who have joined this community movement are a Godsend to others.

I will say after connecting with neighbors near me, some r just disabled or elderly or working too many jobs with not enough help. But some are angry with something else going on (mental illness, addiction, cognitive decline, SOBs) and it isn’t safe to go on their property let alone start helping. Paranoia and distrust has definitely picked up it’s really sad. Rest of us watch while someone on vacation, grab trash bins off street, shovel when it’s snowing, leave garden vegetables out, let kids play outside unimpeded, don’t freak out if a dog gets loose or barks, don’t mind when a family party brings 20 cars. When neighbor’s wife died, checked in with him. Huge storm took down bunch of trees all the chainsaw dads came out lol. The little things make a huge difference in someone’s life and makes it a safer neighborhood.

@@neobscurait’s very hit or miss, in the same town you could have one street that is wonderful neighbors that help & throw cookouts and one that has awful neighbors with cops called for disputes. The ones you have heard about are often HOAs that have become wayyy too invasive or power flexing, used to be a way to pool resources for plowing/mowing, keep property values good. Now they are more interested in telling people what to do on their property. And if you break too many rules they can work to get you foreclosed for breach of contract. Obnoxious
Slight of build, but a giant of heart. Hard working (obviously), measured in his words, slow to anger, generous with his substance and time, and no judge of the strangers he literally seeks out so that he can help them recover much of the aesthetic value of their property and in the process their self-esteem too.

We don't have the Spanish Moss problem here, but having to use an air compressor to blow out all the sprinkler lines in October so that they don't freeze is probably something you don't have to deal with. Every region has its own gardening challenges. When we have 3 feet of snow in the yard and another 6 inches is forecast for overnight, I watch your videos and listen to you talk about 110 degree weather and dream about when the tulips and iris will come up amid a scattering of daffodils and I smile.
I respect your determination and hard work ethic and compassion for helping people who are in need, the yard looks amazing thanks to the code enforcement officers who found you..the home owners very lucky to have you work on the property.
Al, do you even realize what a kind hearted, lover of humanity, caring, generous soul you are? You are one of the best human beings I've ever had the pleasure of witnessing!! You have gone waaaay over and above helping this woman out with the COLOSSAL undertaking of this yard. I am always blown away by what you do for people, but this has to be the most amazing work you have ever done. And in that kind of heat too! I've noticed the past few months some of the jobs are gradually getting bigger almost like God testing you "How about this one Al, will you still do it for free?" Honestly, I don't think you would ever say no. You deserve every good thing God could possibly give to a man my brother. May God bless you a 1000x over and may he always protect you everywhere you go. 🙏💗
That machine is not a mower - its a phenomenon! So glad you had it to rely on; this yard is beginning to look amazing - thank you, always, for sharing the work that you do, and your kindness and generosity to those who neeed your skills
Hi Al , I am from Jamaica and I enjoy watching your videos. You are amazing in the things that you do , cleaning people yard for 😮free . God will always bless you 🙏🙏.
I just found this channel and I've seen a lot of mowing channels out there but this is my favorite. The amount of FREEEEE work done on this yard is amazing! Such a good dude!
Al.... unbelievable! So wonderful! Thank you for saving this family, and this yard! Surrounded by angels...to get you through it! We'll keep watching and cheering you on!👏🌿
A few observations and emotions from this viewing: Humbled - By this man's example, work ethic, compassion for others, and his humility. Motivated - Work harder on keeping my yard clean and neat! Look for opportunity to be of service to others who are in need. Be a better person in general. Kindness is contagious. Amazed - That I spend hours watching a guy in Florida mow and clean up yards and enjoy the videos! I look forward to next week and Part 3! Blessed - Brings a reminder to be grateful for all the blessings in my life, so many people are really struggling and times seem to be getting worse all over. Hopeful - Despite all the negativity in our world, this is a reminder that there are really good, caring folks everywhere and when we focus on the positive aspects we can all accomplish more and change things for the better. Thankful - For a guy like Al that can lift others by his spirit and example.

YOU are AMAZING! You not only have skills and proficiency with yard tools...you have a discerning eye...a great work ethic...and a BIG heart for the people you help out! May God bless and keep you safe as you do this work. THIS yard was ridiculous though. You should have had help (even by the owner) working on it! While you work on the massive stuff, they could have been taking the moss out of the fence or bushes?!
Wow! Your work is so impressive! I spend months trying to catch up and keep up each year and still can't get through it all. What you accomplish in a few days takes my breath away. I am learning, tho, from your approach and thank you for sharing. 😊

Good job! If the nosey neighbours feel that the horrific 'history' of the house is so important to their neighbourhood, why aren't they helping her? From their comments and pumping you for information, they sound very cliquey/judgy and I feel sorry for the lady who owns that house having to live near them. It's very distasteful when people would rather judge and stick their nose in the air, rather than ask if they need help. Thank you for helping this lady up!
Amazing job..I noticed that you don't just do a half ass job and expect them to be grateful because you're doing it for free. You do a full on clean up of everything as if they are a paying customer. Really is refreshing to see you help people like this. Thanks for sharing your experiences.

I love what you do!! I moved from Colorado to Florida and was so shocked by the 'stuff' hanging in the trees. I had no idea what it was! I lived there for about 2 1/2 years and then moved with a job. Florida was so hot!!! Anyway, I love mowing! It's a very relaxing thing for me to keep my mind off my worries. You're a blessing! Keep on doing what you do best! Love you for it!!!
Al you absolutely slogged to clean up this place. The amount of effort & love you put in, is unmeasurable. We from India send blessings to You, Your loved ones & Your clients.
Just when you think you’ve met or seen someone that is the most humble or kind person you could, you find Al’s channel and how much passion he has for helping people. It’s not just a show up and do this for views kind of thing either. You get to see his thoughts before and how he talks to the people he is helping and the time he spends with them is just so heartwarming to see. I never would have thought a channel about mowing lawns would be so inspirational but Al truly has changed that. The revenue off one of his videos is enough to probably sustain a weeks worth of paid work he does for normal clients but he still works while doing these. What an all around awesome human being he is. Love the work you do for others, Al. You are truly a gift to our time and generation. ❤
What a phenomenal job you’ve done, particularly as a one person operation 👏 👏 Thank you for your kindness and hard work while helping others.
WOW, AMAZING. This appears to to be DECADES of NEGLECT. U have BLESSED this home owner with a WONDERFUL GIFT. I certainly HOPE that APPRECIATION is SHOWN by them KEEPING IT MAINTAINED. It’s NOT just MOWING, and I totally understand that we ALL have some type of CHALLENGE in our LIFETIME. THANKS TO U AND UR CREW, YOU WILL ALWAYS BE BLESSED 🙏👏👍
Dude you're an inspiration! I'm moving to a small town and I plan on getting in touch with code enforcement to start helping people just like you do! I plan on working at some local businesses and neglected government buildings (post office, fire department, library, the local gym, just to get started) in my town. Just fortunate enough to still have the physical ability to do so, so I'm paying it back... you do great work and there will be a special place for you in the afterlife, God bless...

@@banjomir519 An extremely pessimistic view of this but understandable. It's less exploitation and more win-win for everyone involved. Landscaping jobs aren't exactly cheap, anywhere from hundreds to thousands of dollars especially a job like this one with the amount of work that's needed and the size of the yard. Let's just ignore that for now and say you needed major work done and couldn't afford it. Someone, that's recognized by a lot of people for that specific type of work, came up to you and said they'll do it for free. All they want is to film it so they can upload it and that's how they'll get their income for the job they're doing for you. Would it still feel like a scummy practice to you? Honestly? They could just as easily go into the nice neighborhoods with the well maintained homes and make their content there for less work and the same amount of views but they don't. They go for people who are actually in need and do it there. If that by itself isn't a good thing then I don't know what is

I've only read a few comments, so maybe this was addressed: bless that code enforcement officer for holding off and writing this property owner a citation. I used to live in Jacksonville, Florida and in certain parts of the city enforcement officers quite regularly inspect and cite properties...no mercy. And if the city cleans up a property, I can tell you from experience, it can be quite expensive. As someone who also watches this young man's videos, I applaud his true Christian spirit.
You, have inspired so many homeowners to improve their lives and have created a positive environment with up lifting results. You have increased the value of their homes and the neighborhood as well. I can only wonder how many people had a better outlook on their lives and improved their way of living. Good for you.
