"Michael and his team are phenomenal. I really can't give enough praise to this company. I will use them for all my lawn care needs in the future.  <br> <br>They finished the job - hauling gravel from a carport, disposing of it, extending an existing irrigation system to that area and installing sod - in a single day, and they did an excellent job. When they encountered an issue with some concrete they found in the area, they let me know immediately and talked me through all the possible solutions and helped me find the best, most affordable fix. The lawn looks great.  <br> <br>At this point I was impressed, but what really struck me was how they followed up on the job afterwards. Scott, who installed the irrigation system, has been stopping by the house to check the moisture levels of the sod on a weekly basis and adjust the sprinklers as needed. Then a couple weeks after the sod installation I had a fence installed in the area, and the fencing crew trampled all over a section of the new sod, turning it into a muddy mess, despite my warnings. I was so upset, and Scott and Michael came to the rescue. They answered my frantic emails immediately, and right away Scott checked to make sure the irrigation system wasn't damaged. Now he's bringing his team by the house to fix the sod free of charge.  <br> <br>Between the quality of work done. the responsiveness, the follow-ups, and the EXCELLENT customer care, I am decidedly a lifetime Commonwealth Landcare customer. <br> <br> <br> <br> <br> <br>"

"Responded rapidly and actually worked me in ahead of the scheduled service with weather looking bad toward the scheduled service date. Did a great job cutting and clearing brush/debris created by recent storm. Didnâ t leave any residual twigs or branches in the grass. Very nice and polite. Would recommend and will likely use again for other lawn/garden work."

"C Chaplin did a spring clean up on my yard that included trimming a tree, mowing, mulching around bushes, and taking out some plants/shrubs. Pleased with their work BUT?-they ran out of edging material and promised to return to complete the work. I paid for the work including the missing edging border materials. I?M STILL WAITING AND ITS BEEN OVER TWO MONTHS. I?ve called/texted and been ignored except for one time and they promised to come that week and complete edging. STILL WAITING. Workers were very good and I was satisfied with their work. Manager needs to take care of business and finish job that was paid for, both labor and material. "

FAQs for lawn care aeration projects in Ashland, VA

Aeration is the best way to keep your lawn healthy and vibrant. Annual aeration makes your lawn more breathable and helps nutrients reach the roots, improving water absorption and reducing puddles where pests might breed. However, timing matters. It's best to avoid aerating during droughts, extreme heat, or if your lawn is battling weeds. A local pro can help you determine the ideal time for your yard.

Most lawns benefit from annual aeration to keep them healthy and thriving. If your lawn has a lot of thatch buildup—more than half an inch—you might need to aerate twice a year for a couple of years to get it under control. But if your soil isn't compacted and there's minimal thatch, you might be able to skip a year.

When you hire a professional lawn care company, a standard 10,000-square-foot lawn takes about 30 minutes to aerate. Uneven, sloped, or especially large lawns can take significantly more time. So, depending on your lawn's size and condition, the process can take anywhere from half an hour to several hours.

The best time to aerate your lawn is during the spring or fall when your grass is actively growing and the soil has enough moisture. Aerating once in the spring and once in the fall yields the best results. Avoid aerating when your lawn is dormant or right after heavy rain when the soil is too wet—that can make aeration less effective.

Even if your lawn looks healthy, aeration can still be beneficial. If you have good growth, proper drainage, and little thatch, you might not need to aerate right away. Regular aeration helps water and nutrients reach the roots, keeping your lawn strong over time. Keep an eye on your lawn's condition to decide when it might need aeration.
