I needed about 1500 sq ft of my lawn replaced. I got estimates of $1700 to $2000 from local companies. Really didnt want to spend that much. So I was able to get with a local company to sell me 3 pallets of St Aug. for 400 plus 100 delivery. I was able to find an incredible day laborer on craigslist who just left.

He spent 4 hours clearing out the old dead grass. The only break he would take was less than 5 minutes for Burger King I bought for him and his wife. ( he brought her along for much of the time to help him bag up the dead grass ).

I have never seen such a hard worker. He is coming back tomorrow to dig up the rest of the dead grass and then again on Tues to drop the new sod.

IF ANYONE NEEDS A GREAT WORKER SEND ME A MESSAGE. I advertised $15 an hour minimum of 8 hours. He is a local US citizen. I actually paid him $20 an hour because he worked so hard and had his wife help him. He declined to come inside and wash up for lunch or use the bathroom.

I have not seen such a hard worker in a long time. My wife commented that people in the south seem to work harder. He has done work in TV before as he new where my village was. I would love to get such a great worker more work. I assume he can do just about anything. He even brought his own tools.

Jeff thanks for the information and for your generosity. When we need work done I will remember to use him. I sent you a PM for his name and telephone number. Hopefully he will get more work here in TV; someone who works that hard and is respectful deserves the work.
