Bathroom Renovation Project
Jan 27th
A short post on a renovation job that I am working on here in Norway Maine. This is a bathroom remodel that is starting to take shape as we removed the old bathtub and replaced it with a new one, along with a new toilet and sink.
I also had to replaced some old flooring under the tub and laid some new tile on the rest of the floor, the drywall has been hung and am in the process of applying the tape and mud to the walls, sanding everything down getting the room ready for paint, hopefully by the end of the week.
I didn’t get any before pictures, but I will be sure to post up some photos of during and after the renovation job is done and update this post.

The New Year
Jan 10th
Well here we are in 2010 and Down To Earth has hit the ground running at full speed, this is the first season in 12 years that we have offered snow plowing as a service once again and it has really picked up the slack of the season for Down To Earth, usually we will do snow removal from roofs, decks and pathways allowing us to cover a bigger area. This year we wanted to be more central to home base here in Norway Maine and
We have also been doing property watching as well for the snowbirds and folks living out of state, this was a new service that we started offering at the end of 2009 and has been a growing business since then as has the snow plowing side. We have combined our snow removal and property maintenance services in with property watching service as a package deal for these folks.
It is almost time to start getting ready here in Maine for preparing landscape maintenance bids, which we trying to get a jump start on, as the bidding will start in March, but things are growing at a pretty good pace and will need to burn some of the midnight oil to get these done at this pace.
Happy New Year!!!
Dec 29th
We here at Down To Earth Lawn & Property Maintenance would like to wish everyone a Happy New Year. May it be a year of growth and renewal for each of us, aspiring one another to reach our goals and desires, cheering each other on in earnest, helping one another, treating one another the way that we would like to be treated, with Love, Honor and Respect.
We haven’t made any New Years resolutions, but we have set forth a business plan that is full of short term goals to attain success for our lawn and property maintenance company. A plan that will bring steady growth, growing our company a pace that is manageable.
Gearing Up For 2010
Dec 27th
Here at Down To Earth we are gearing up for the upcoming spring season, although its a few months away here in Maine, we are going over the equipment so when the time comes we won’t have mess around with it. We have been sharpening the mower blades, changing out the oils and spark plugs, as well as the air and oil filters.
I have been working on finishing up the year end paperwork as well as preparing next seasons documents, updating clients information and setting up the lawn and landscape maintenance marketing programs with the emphasis on Organic Lawn Care. I have been out talking to other contractors, realtors and other property maintenance providers, setting up a circle of networking partners in my local area.
While doing all this, I still have the snow plowing season just getting underway here as well, these customers will be my priority during the storm days and in between I will be working on my commercial property bids for property maintenance for the 2010 season. I have started on some of these already. I will be submitting 300 plus bids within a 30 mile radius, the outcome will determine my route for the season.
I am still receiving call and emails from asset companies for doing foreclosure properties, but I am holding back a little as I just had a big ad go out in the local paper mainly for snow plowing and snow removal, but will be doing some light carpentry, so I will see where it all leads and go from there.
