The easiest way to contact YardTally is by email at hello@yardtally.com. Whether you have a question about a calculator, an idea for a new guide, or you spotted something that needs fixing, I’d like to hear it. YardTally is a one-person operation, and I read every message myself.
How to Contact YardTally
Send an email to hello@yardtally.com. You’ll usually hear back within 1 to 2 business days. To help me give you a useful answer the first time, include:
- The page or calculator you’re asking about, if there is one
- The numbers you entered, if a calculator result looks off
- A photo, if your question is about something in your yard or house
- Where you live, if it’s a lawn, garden, or weather question, since the answer often depends on your climate
What to Contact YardTally About
Questions about a project
Stuck on a project one of the guides covers? Ask. If the answer would help other readers too, I may add it to the article so the next person doesn’t have to email.
Calculator and guide ideas
Most of the calculators on the site exist because I needed them for my own house. If there’s a project where you keep doing math on your phone in the store, tell me about it. Suggestions for new how-to guides are just as welcome.
Corrections
If a calculator gives you a number that doesn’t look right, a link is broken, or something in a guide is out of date, please let me know. Every guide on YardTally is backed by sources like university extension services and government agencies, and I’d rather fix a mistake quickly than leave it up.
Affiliate and partnership questions
If you have questions about the affiliate links on the site, our affiliate disclosure explains how they work. For anything else business-related, use the same email address.
Before You Email: Find a Quick Answer
A lot of common questions already have a full answer on the site, so you might find yours faster this way:
- Use the search bar on the homepage and type a word like WINTER, MULCH, or GRASS
- Browse every calculator and guide by category on the All Guides page
- Getting the house ready for cold weather? Start with the winter home maintenance checklist
- Figuring out how much material to buy? Try the topsoil calculator or the mulch calculator
What Happens After You Contact YardTally
Every email gets a real reply from me, not an automated one. If you asked a question, I’ll answer it as clearly as I can and point you to the guide or calculator that covers it. If you suggested a new calculator or guide, I’ll add it to the list of projects I’m planning, and popular requests move to the top. If you reported a problem, I’ll check it, fix it, and let you know when it’s done.
I can’t give advice on electrical, gas, or structural problems that need a licensed professional to inspect in person. If something sounds unsafe, like a gas smell, a sparking outlet, or a sagging ceiling, call a pro or your utility company right away instead of waiting on an email.
Who You’re Talking To
When you contact YardTally, you’re talking to the homeowner who built it. I live in Greenwood, Indiana, and I write the guides and build the calculators myself. You can read more about why I started the site on the About page.
Thanks for stopping by. Whether it’s a quick question about how much mulch to buy or an idea for a brand-new calculator, I look forward to hearing from you, and I hope YardTally saves you a trip or two to the store.
