My builder uses Houzz Pro to plan the timeline and give detailed estimates and daily updates with photos of progress, and provide invoices at pre-agreed key points in the build. This made the whole experience much more efficient and stress-free.

Hand Grass trimmers or ????

18 years ago

Ok I did real well with my post on a gas trimmer. I got an Echo. Now for a question on a trimmer for right up to the plants. I have used some hand trimmers in the past and they were a pain. Is there a better way or trimmer? I have a bunch of plants and it seems I always neglect to trim close so I am hoping to give the DW a suggestion for a Christmas present. I am too careless with my grass trimmer and always nick them if I try to trim right to the plant.

Thanks,

Jim
