"Our lawn was looking a bit sad, as there were a lot of weeds and it just wasn’t full and a healthy green. We hired Perennial for the season, and the customer service has been consistently great. They customized our package for the best regimen for our lawn, and call us at least 2 days ahead to let us know the next treatment date. We are only 2 treatments in, but already we see a huge difference. The lawn is filling in and overall looks so much healthier!! We are very pleased with the results so far!"

"The sales person who came out to assess my yard and provide an estimate impressed me by being very knowledgable. They really seem to understand and care about the biology of it all. I was disappointed that they couldn't provide me with a time window when the initial work would be done during the day, and more disappointed when they missed the first scheduled day. However, they showed up the following day and got the job done efficiently. Hopeful about the future health of the lawn but time will tell..."

FAQs for lawn care aeration projects in Clifton, NJ

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.
