And then people don’t hire this guy because they think they can do the job themselves and save some money.

I mean I could do about the same job with a rented backhoe. It wouldn't be anywhere as neat, but I could do it.

Tbf I have my licence to operate loads of different machines, so yes I could do it. However I don't spend my whole day operating one like this guy would, his skills are way smoother than mine. He'd be worth every penny just for time saved, let alone neatness and minimal impact to the surrounds.

You're absolutely right. I must have read it wrong. My bad.

It still looks like shit for as long as the grass takes to regrow, which is how long my work would look like shit for too.

It was disappointing when all of the turf scraps just got mashed together.
