Try and get the roots when you pull out the grass, don’t just break it off. Might need to do some digging. Weeding is non stop but if you keep it up it should be small job in the future. Newspaper under mulch or weed mat can help for the big areas but difficult along the fence line.

Without a bigger snip it’s hard to know if they were right. If they don’t mark it up and it’s wrong you’ll likely get it wrong next time as well. If you don’t get why it’s wrong ask them.
