What kind of debris to expect during a renovation


When you are completing a renovation for the first time, you might not expect the amount and type of debris you might have to tackle. Here at Load N Lift we have seen it all, and with our services, you will be able to have your debris hauled away with ease. So, without further adieu, here are the typical kinds of debris to expect during a renovation.

Flooring

Flooring is one of those things that you think will not be too bad to remove until you start. Whether you are dealing with hardwood, laminate or something worse like tile, you need to be prepared to remove a significant amount of flooring when it comes to a renovation. As well, it is decently heavy, and thus is a bit better bang for your buck to rent a bin rather than pay for your rubbish removal.

Roofing

When it comes to dealing with debris, a roof renovation might be the most significant amount of rubbish during a renovation. No matter if you are dealing with a full re-do of the roof or a simple patch, you will need to get rid of the debris! Choosing the right company is essential, especially if you are dealing with asphalt shingles as they need to be recycled by the right company. Call us today and see how a bin from Load N Lift can assist with your roof renovation!

Drywall is a hard project to complete, and the debris is more than significant. Whether we are talking about the removal of the drywall in the home or the removal of the drywall to the correct facility for refuse, the team at Load N Life has you covered.

Four ways to enjoy your garden longer

We all have had a long hard winter, and spring and summer are meant for you to enjoy your garden for as long as possible. However, for many of us, this means that we need to do some work during the year to maintain and monitor how the plants are doing! In this blog, we are going to look at five ways that will ensure that you can enjoy your garden for just a little bit longer this season.

Watering

It might seem like a simple thing, but you would be surprised at how many people underwater, or overwater their plants! You can tell if you are overwatering If you plant soil is soaked, or if you notice mould or moss growing on the container. If you are underwatering, you will see rock hard soil and wilted flowers. Proper watering will go a long way to ensuring your garden lasts!

Mulch

Laying down a layer of mulch does wonders for a garden, and proper mulching can help ensure your garden will last. Mulch helps with the following things:

Improves soil retention

Regulates soil temperature

Prevents soil erosion from wind and rain

Reduces weed growth

Mulch can be made up of practically any organic material, and store-bought mulch is also a great option if you do not want to make your own.

Maintenance

When you consider the real key to enjoying your garden longer, it comes down to maintenance. This means that a successful garden will have routine weeding and natural controls for the prevention of weeds. As well, you will need to feed your soil with manure and mulch monthly to encourage new growth and strengthening of old growth. Finally, you will need to learn to disinfect your tools before starting work to prevent soil transfer, and other biomasses infecting different parts of your garden.

Rent a bin from Load N Lift

Whether it is your first mulch of the season, or need a bigger green bin during maintenance, Load N Lift makes it easy to ensure your garden lasts. With our simple to use bins, you will be able to secure mulch, or dirt safely, and when you are ready, our truck can take the load away, that simple.

The five keys to getting your grass back to normal

With the last remnants of winter starting to melt away, the time is right for you to start looking at your grass. You might notice some patches or even some bare spots, and if that is so, you need to start looking at reseeding options. In this blog, we are going to look at the five keys to get your grass back to normal!

1. Rake

When you are looking to reseed, one of the best things you can do is to start anew. This is why we always suggest raking any dead grass, leaves or debris off of the area you are looking to reseed. This will give your lawn the ability to get much-needed sunlight and moisture to spur on growing.

2. Rent a Load N Lift Bin

If you are starting to wonder where you are going to put the compost and new topsoil for your reseeding mission, skip the tarp on the driveway and rent a Load N Lift Bin. With easy access and accessible storage, the bins at Load N Lift are ideal for helping clients with reseeding.

3. Level your compost

As grass seed needs some help to grow, compost is the ideal base layer when laying seed. Spread 2 to 3 inches of compost, or 5-7 cm, of compost over the area, and smooth with a back of a rake. You want to ensure that the entire area is covered and level with the surrounding soil.

4. Mix the seed with equal parts sand

One of the keys to growing grass on the Canadian Shield is sand. It might be surprising, but equal parts of sand and seed will do wonders on your reseeding project. The moisture from the sand will help speed up the germination process of the seeds and will help keep the seeds in place during windy days. Make sure to buy wetter sand, as playground sand or other coarse sands are not great for this job.

5. Keep the area moist, but not wet

Finally, it would help if you kept the area that you are trying to grow moist, but not soggy. Grass seed needs to be germinated regularly, but not so much that they drown. The rule of thumb is to run a fine spray of water two or three times during the day, and that should be enough to spur on growth.

Growing grass is an art, and to help you become a master, the team at Load N Lift here to help you with your outside chores. Call our team today, and find out how a Load N Lift can help your next project!

Wipe Down all surfaces

Naturally, if you live in an area with high humidity, or have a room that that is exposed to high humidity, like a bathroom, you need to wipe down your surfaces.

Enlist the Kiddos

When you are dealing with summer cleaning, why do it by yourself? The kids are off of school, and they are perfectly able to help you with your summer cleanup. Give them a few tasks that they can do weekly, and let them get into a rhythm.

Keep it simple, but the most important thing is that you get free cleaning help!

Hose down the doormats

After a tough spring, your doormats can use some tender loving care. The summer is a perfect time to take the hose and give your doormats a good hosing.
