Lawn Care Guide

Shawn asked:

Trying to decide between a few names for a lawn care/odd jobs service business I’m starting this spring. Main focus will be cutting grass and providing lawn care services, but will also do odd jobs like gutter cleaning, junk removal, dog poop pick-up…just to name a few. Would like to be able to have a name that’s catchy, yet professional and respected. Also might want to sell the business someday or franchise it, so that might be important.

I’ve thought of the following names…just need some input:
- MowingKing
- (initals) Mowing
- (initals) Property Services

Let me know what you think would be best, or what would you do. Also looking for a good slogan (nothing cheesy!)

Thanks!

What do Chemlawn and other lawn care companies do to your lawn that can’t be done yourself? With products from Home Depot Lowe’s etc?

My father just gave me a lawn-mower.
I took the handles down so that the mower would fit into my trunk.
When I attempted to re-assemble the lawn mower - I noticed that the cord that usually attaches to the side of the mower will not reach, and only leaves the motor housing by about 6 inches.

What am I doing wrong?
I tried holding down the handle that you have to hold down in order start the mower also. It still wouldnt come out.

I have a Troy-Bilt self propelled lawn mower which drive belt loose and came off. I put it back, worked for a while and then the lawn mower had to be pushed very hard. I think the belt is not good anymore. Where can I buy a new one? how much it costs?

My lawnmower just shut off on me yesterday after mowing the grass for about 15 mins, i couldnt get it to fire back up, i changed the spark plug, washed the air filter changed the gasoline and still nothing, i added oil to it also but the oil was 10w30 i was told it wouldnt matter but i think i added more than i supposed to add(18 oz.) and oil was everywhere, so today i took the mower apart piece by piece and whiped it down after drainging all the gas and oil, I went to sears and bought a tune up kit, which gave my 18 oz. of synthentic oil, a new air filter, new spark plug, and fuel stablizer. I put it back together and filled the gas and oil up and pulled the cord a couple times and it sounds like it wants to start but it doesnt and then if i primer it and try it throws a little bit of white smoke and backfires it sounds like… this lawn mower is a craftmans 2004 7.0 self prepelled lawn mower and the local places want 60$ to tell me whats wrong and its 2 week wait any advice?? thank u
