Age CAUGHT UP with the owner, leaving this yard UNTOUCHED for 5 YEARS
I found this lawn in a small town where it seemed like everything needed help. I knocked on the door with no answer, but spoke with the neighbor across the street to get some more info. He told me the owners moved out 5 years ago and have just been getting too old to keep up with it. They live a few hours away and city never mows the grass. So, I thought I could spend a little bit of time making it look better for the neighborhood and help the owners out the best that I can.

Badboy mowers are the best.
Great job guy Bless you!
What happened to Hustler?
You are such a sad animal because of your family
@@darylb4814 Have you used a Bad Boy then?
I let my 3 yr old foster son watch your videos to learn a few things about being a good man (person) and work hard. Our boys need examples like you. Thanks bro!!!!❤😊
❤🎉💐
You're right about that, ❤
He is inspiring...3 year olds LIKE doing chores and yard work, when a patient adult does it with them. Using tools, learning about trimming or planting---cooking---all sorts of activities appeal to the little ones. When you actually DO them, with your Body, Hands, etc., it puts down a new neural network in their brains and bodies. Just watching stuff won't accomplish that. It stays abstract if all you do is stare at a screen.
I'm 62, and he inspires me. I can now weed wack and change the cord when it runs out. Lol ❤️🔥
A work horse but scared of Poison Ivy,,
I will never understand why cities and towns just leave abandoned houses to rot. Find the owners..make an offer and save them. You do a great job for the neighbors. Bless you.😊
So they can make money of the land.
It’s their retirement plan.
Larger cities might be able to do that, but towns are often cash strapped operating on very thin budgets. Especially with increased urbanization. To me it's kinda sad to see parts simply abandon and decay.
because the money needs to go to ukraine and israel, not US citizens.
@@ajc5298 Oh please, even if we didn't send overseas aid, that money would never be slated to be used on US citizens.
It does my 75 year old heart good to see a young bright good hearted man working hard helping others to build up their communities again. I’d rather watch programs like yours than channels with young people who have nothing better than to tear down their communities. May God bless you and your family!
I originally found your videos on Instagram. When I realized that you had a KZhead channel, I thought, "Do I really need full-length videos?" Yes... yes, I do. Thanks!!
They are Great to watch!
Absolutely!
Awesome! Thank you!
This comment is for the respect of taking all that time and effort to pick up all that trash! Thank you Spencer and God bless you!
I appreciate it!
Wow, Spencer this was one dirty place. You are a kind hearted soul and cleaned up a lot of trash. The City Council should really pay you for all the good work you are doing to clean up the neighborhood . Love your videos. 💕💕💕💕
Then he wouldn't be racking up brownie points in heaven! It would just be another paid worker job. 😉
@@stardust949 In case you weren't aware of it, no one gets to heaven by their works. Exchanging lives with Jesus so that HIS work applies to us is the only way to heaven and to avoid the other place.
Thanks for watching!
Crazy … so many people desperate for housing with empty, abandoned houses sitting derelict. Just wrong. Thank you, Spencer, for the work you do.
These houses are trash and junky and probably look like a mess inside - you would have to do a lot of repair and clean up.
I used to be a lazy when it came to yardwork. After finding this SB Mowing channel, I became much more interested in proper yard care. My Family and neighbors have really started complimenting the way my lawn and trimming looks. I bet I'm not the only one that Spencer has inspired to step up their game. Thanks for quality and interesting content.
My friend, ...who also is an SB Mowing fan & sub, surprised me with an SB Mowing T-shirt for my birthday! : )
That's so cool! Thank you so much!
The Bad Boy had a 2x4 jammed under it. It still cut even after. Most others would have cut lopsided as all get out. Great job as usual Spencer.
An awesome job on such a terrible mess
Crazy that in the middle of a housing crisis, there are multiple properties like this just sitting empty and abandoned.
There isn’t a housing crisis
Part of it is just red tape and inertia. The other part is that people aren't willing to do the considerable work necessary to restore a house this far gone.
@@Patrick3183 yes, there's plenty of houses -- they've just tripled in price the last few years! Luckily I bought one in 2010....
True. Why don’t squatters move into houses like this instead of occupied homes? They would have a roof over their head and no one would bother them.
@@alanyoder7629these houses are trashed usually and squatters would just ruin them further. Squatters need to be arrested and removed. It’s not like they’d have mowed and painted the place!
Besides being a great mower/edger, SB is SMART! Uses a 'grabber' to pick up trash--> no accidental needle sticks/back injury prevention AND has ingenuity to problem solve issues that arise during each job. Love watching you...continue to stay smart,stay safe!
Amazing how the Earth reclaims everything over time. Nice work, Spencer.
I started watching and thought oh goodness that driveway... then saw the sidewalk!! 😳🤦🏼♀️ Spencer, you have the patience of a Saint! ❤
Haha thank you!
It just never ceases to amaze me with how many houses that just get abandoned and left to rot. You do a wonderful job on all these poor neglected houses, Spencer. I'm sure the neighbors are happy that they don't have to look at that mess for a little while, at least.
Thanks for watching!
Spencer I just wanted to say you inspire me to get my strength back so I can enjoy doing my yard again! I've been having issues with my legs now for the past couple of years, lost strength and on the brink of needing a walker, but you have inspired me to start doing some strength training on my legs also I can regain my ability to walk freely. I used to love working in my yard, but sadly got to point I couldn't anymore, except like I said now I'm working toward getting back to my to it! Thank you Spencer for an inspiration to me and many others I'm sure!
Seek the help of a Doctor of Physical Therapy (DPT). They'll get you up and strong again. A DPT can recognize problems others can't.
You never talk down or blame. You are an OCD person’s hero. The house is toast but the large lot has got to be worth some money.
my OCD was screaming when i saw how the edges on the gravel road looked
Location kinda sucks, though - corner lot next to a through road.
I wonder why no landlords buy it and tear down the house and build a new one. If you could buy it for land value, I think you could make it pencil out.
Man we need more people like you in this world
Awesome work man! You are a true modern day hero. Helping others
I hear your words to the tune of of the Dukes of Hazzard theme song. Simply because one of the lyrics is very similar. Now to get Spencer a version of the song on his videos......
Amazing! No snakes, mice, rats, spiders, or other critters!! Such a great makeover! You have to be the king of finding hidden, overgrown sidewalks and driveways and uncovering them!! Great job, Spencer!!⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐🇨🇱
Woo hoo SB Mowing Friday 🎉
I always wanted to see the reaction of the owners when they return to their property to check on it and find it cleaned up so nicely. I’d bet there are some awesome reactions.
It's a shame about the disrepair these houses are in because they look like they are really cue houses! Great video as usual!
...and that one looks like it might not be too far gone to rescue.
Choked on a log and it _still_ ran like a dream; dang. Props to Bad Boy for building a superior machine! They could literally use that clip as an advert for how tough their mowers are~😆
SB TO THE RESCUE!!!!💓🦸
those thick clods of grass and soil on the driveway must have been very heavy with the recent rain. Great job as always.
Good Morning to you Spencer from the rainy Pacific Northwest. I’m enjoying your wonderful video as I begin my day with a cup of coffee! I find it very encouraging to watch you as you help people and properties that are no longer able to keep up. The neighbors and neighborhoods must be so grateful for you! I know I would be! Thank you for all you do! Wishing you strength, comfort and good health in your days!💕
I’m from the rainy Pacific Northwest, too
That patch of grass on the sidewalk is as big as my front yard 😂😂😂
Lol
Seeing you run over all the wood and the mower still ran is the best advertisement for Bad Boy mowers.. I broke a spindle and bent a blade just running into a tall root I didn't see on my Cub Cadet..
I am always shocked and strangely satisfied by the before and after pictures.
Wow! Great job, Spencer! Bad Boy Mower lives up to the name. You are truly making an impact. I know the neighbors appreciate your hard work.
I love my hat Spencer. When someone comments to me saying they know you, I'm going to take a selfie with them and send it to you. it is a shame to let this house die. im sure realtors have tried to buy it but now the roof shingles are laying on the ground. the house cant survive with its roof on the ground. shame. looks like a cool house and property.
Thanks for the support! Glad you like the hat!
If the man that owned those homes was still living in one of them, he would get charged for having an overgrown lawn. But since he abandoned them the town doesn't seem to care about them. Instead of helping him and getting the lawns cut at least. But glad we have people like Spencer who make the neighborhoods look amazing.
That was an amazing cleanup. The driveway, the front walk, the garage, even the house seemed to just appear as if by magic. So much back-breaking work and you do it without complaining-you do it for the neighbors-people you do not know. You are a great man. There is no sense of bravado in your work, you just put your nose down and humbly go about your business. Kudos to you , Spencer!
Nice to see you cutting the trees closer to the ground.
You're an amazing man, Spencer!!! Congratulations!❤🎉
What a crazy yard!! I don't think I've seen a driveway as matted down as this one was!! You rock Spencer!!
Nice job Spencer. It does amaze me how many abandoned houses you find. The owners should just sell it so someone can take care of it.
That could not have been a better commercial for that mower - that it starts right up after lodging a virtual 2x4 in it!
You are an amazing person who overcomes neglected yards. You are a wonderful and caring person.👍👍👍
Great job, Spencer! What a sad little house. 😢 So glad you cleaned it up for the neighborhood! Great edges. Blessings on you and yours!
It's crazy how quickly nature takes over!
I have a dog that digs holes, and a few years ago my street was rebuilt. I have low spots all over the place that need more soil. And you have it! .....!
Spencer, king of drive ways and paths. Great job. Bet the neighbours are grateful. Need a bulldozer to clear mud from the curb now. Thanks for clearing all that trash. ❤🇿🇦
Love watching iyour videos in the a.m. before I go to work Have a great day Spencer!
Wow 👏 this makes the whole neighborhood look much better and I'm sure the neighbors appreciate it. Have a very blessed week 🙏
Seriously dude, that mower name (bad boy) is right, it keeps on going no matter what gets thrown under l. As always amazing and wonderful transformation Spencer brother and God bless you and your family and take care
Those Bad boys are really nice! That is the biggest pothole I've seen on a paved road! Great job!😊
Wow, more than 2 million subscribers. 🥳🥳 Congratulations from the Netherlands
I'm not sure who wouldn't want to stay and see the awesome end results! Another great job.
This yard was a beast!! You and that BadBoy mower are unstoppable, Spencer!! Great transformation!!👏🏻
After years of plant growth and the lack of maintenance, this is the sad thing that happens to a property in a neighborhood. Thank goodness for people like Spencer, who can go in and clean up a property and make it look grand again!!!
Good transformation Spencer! You are, indeed a good man and example for the young people! God bless!👍👍🙏♥️🇺🇲
Whoa, glad those bad boy mowers are so tough, you were running into all kinds of stuff! Sure made that corner look hundred times better. I WOULD like to get one of those mowers but right now am mowing what I can on an acre with a 30+ year old Toro Wheel horse 8-25!! The old gal still cuts it!!
Four or five years is a long time for grass to grow. You did so much good for that community. It looks marvelous. 👍
Amazing job! It was a beast of a yard, but that didn't stop you! Thank you there are people like you, selflessly giving to help others!
Bill, from Huntsville Alabama. You are amazing! Thank you for all you do! If we had more people like you in this world, what a better place it would be. Keep up the good work and God bless you! 😊
The outro music is the perfect upbeat way to end it - all comes together great.
Congratulations on reaching 2 million subs! I imagine you never dreamed you would attract that many people when you started this channel. I really enjoy the way you transform these properties, and it is great you do these for free. thanks for helping these people and their neighborhoods. And thanks for sharing your adventures with us.
You do great work god bless you Happy Friday everyone from Maryland
Thank you for the update, SB Mowing..!! Amazing skills and workmanship in restoring the true beauty to an abandoned yard.
TRANSFORMATION AT THE MOST!!! Amazing job spence!!!!
How crazy to have lawn growing right in the middle of the driveway! So glad you unearthed that sidewalk and steps in the front. What an awesome transformation! Be super proud of yourself!
Congratulations on hitting 2 Million Subscribers Spencer 🎊🎉🎊🎉❤
Amazing job again Spencer I know neighbors are glad you did this job Helps make area look better That mower is powerful BadBoys is good on these crazy yards Thank you and God bless for all you do See you on next video ❤❤❤❤❤
What a job you picked with that property!
Watching him operating the riding lawnmower is pure magic, I love to see it sped up like that!
SB Mowing, lawn care specialist, master magician. Wonderful example of the old adage, be the change you wish to see in the world.
It was satisfying to watch you make that place look better
Another fantastic transformation, truly unbelievable difference! God bless all your efforts.
So much hard work, the end result is wonderful. You're a hero. Stay blessed.
The city should be ashamed for letting it go so long and the citizens ashamed of all the trash they threw out! Looks so much better!
I just don't understand why homeowners would rather let the property go to ruin instead of selling it before it becomes disintegrated and completely uninhabited. You choose a tough one but tamed it none the less. A blessing for the neighbors. Looks great.💛of gold. God bless, be safe and stay well.
Me either..why hold on to property you don't plan to use ,pay taxes on it year after year just to let it sit dormant and let it rot and overgrown?😢
Could be health issues
Greetings from Germany. Nice work! And now its weekend!
Hello (G’day) from Australia. Love your work mate. Inspirational. Keep up the good work.
You do what you can to help. It is and means so much to the people in these neighborhoods. It is greatly appreciated, Spencer❤
I find watching your videos oddly stratifying, but most of all its awesome to see what you are doing to help make places better. It's also nice to see there are still people willing to put in a hard day's work to make a living.
Good morning Spencer having a cup of coffee watching you what a great way to start a day .
You will never need a gym membership. What a work out. Great and awesome job on video. Have a blessed weekend.
Happy Friday...Happy Lawn Day!!!
Thanks for your wonderful work on this total disaster! What a face lift for this neighborhood! Good job Spencer see you next Friday ❤👍🌿
My ritual every Friday morning is watching you and drinking my coffee ☕️ 😌 ❤
Doesn't even look like the same property. Awesome transformation
You just amaze me !!!! Thanks for helping the neighborhood 👏👍
Well done Spencer. That's hard work!
@SBMowing - I came across your page on April 12 2024. I watched all your previous videos. Was happy to see this one today. Keep up the great work.
Good morning Spencer. You are such a good, hard working man. As well spoken as you are, I think it help city officials if you suggested to them they get a prison work crew to take care of these abandoned properties. I know it benefits you and your channel, but you can't do them all. Love your videos. Keep up the good work. God bless.
You want him to do what he does AND spend time lobbying city officials? For some people, t's never enough...🙄
@@GuyWithTheDogs As if city officials have any say in prison affairs to start with!
In some areas, there are prison halfway houses in communities, looking for work for the residents to do… so.. l think it might be a good idea to suggest a collaboration like this..
Spencer that property looks 1,000,000 times better since you worked your magic on it you surely are a earth angel cleaning up overgrown properties to better the community and the neighborhood. This property was a lot of work with so much debris laying in and around. Thank you for being such a caring wonderful person and thank you for sharing your videos I really enjoy watching them take care and be safe my friend.
Watching for inspiration. Doing my first 2ft tall yard at noon today. Have a good one, SB.
I love your videos! I get great tips for my lawn! I will be buying a “lawn lady” shirt to wear when I’m out doing the yard! Thank you! Super awesome job yet again! ❤ can’t wait for next Friday’s video!
God bless, Spencer! >
OMG Spencer, I am a new comer to your SB Mowing channel. Enjoying your videos so much, however, now I am looking at everybody lawn to see if it there lawn needs cutting, edging done. Your work is amazing. I want your SB Mowing baseball cap, but it said sold out. I'll keep checking back for it. Have a great day and thanks for all you do to help others neighborhood.🙏 I just ordered the baseball cap. I checked and it's back in stock Thanks, Miss Ethel.
Great work! Those neighbors are pumped!
Love your song playing at the end. It makes me smile.
Good Morning There My Good Little Bro Spencer Of SB Mowing & SB Pressure Washing
I watch your channel all the time. It gave me the motivation to make my back yard usable by digging up half the soggy dirt in my back yard to lay down some nice gravel. It's only 400 sq ft. I curse you for this! This is much more difficult than you make it look! But seriously, you're awesome, and I appreciate you giving me the motivation to know I can do it with just a shovel, wheelbarrow and time.
You are such a blessing to these homeowners. And you are. a blessing to people on the Internet that get to watch your videos. They are very relaxing, inspiring. You never. pick the tiny yard. You always challenge yourself. God bless you. Keep up the good work. You're wonderful.
I can't believe how overgrown, wet, and muddy that yard was! There's a huge tree stump growing right in front of the garage door! That place hasn't been touched in at least 10 years I think. I understand now why they put drainage ditches in front of houses, because this one really needs a way to get rid of all the excess water! Great job cutting all those trees and cleaning up the entire yard Spencer, that looked like a LOT of work! I love the song at the end. God bless you and thank you for the work you do sir. Keep making great videos!
Just Beautiful... I feel sorry for you all the time...Bless you Spencer..
