A recent HomeAdvisor customer had a section of yard with years of English ivy, raspberry bushes and assorted weeds, and said he cleaned them all up, pulled the roots out, dug up stumps, then raked and seeded the lawn; the customer called both him and his mate hard workers. A 2026 customer said Jerod and Nathan worked hard and fast and did a good job. A 2025 customer said they trimmed very overgrown arborvitae and privet hedges and cleaned up afterwards. A 2025 customer said the guys offered a few options for updating the entrance, and the customer went with new bushes and mulch. A 2025 customer in a second season with Trotter's Trimming said they sculpted existing shrubbery and called the price fair for challenging sculpting. A 2025 customer said they cleaned up yard waste, cut the grass and trimmed the hedges. HomeAdvisor shows 4.7 stars from 13 ratings.
