"We hired A to Z to seed a new lawn for us in early June 2023. The grass came up patchy and a thick,green juicy stem. By Aug into September everything had died off and we were left with huge,bare patches of dirt. The weeds overtook and we sprayed them. We contacted the company and they came out and overseeded end of October and admitted it looked terrible. By the following May,2024,we could see there was no new growth. We reseeded the side yard ourselves and I reached out to Ato Z to come look at our yard and 3 weeks later they still hadn't replied. I called and left another message and they never replied. We ended up having to buy grass seed and overseeding everything ourselves which is expensive. Our yard has come in beautifully with the seeding we did so we think they must use a cheap contractors mix which comes up fast but then dies off. We would not recommend this business to anyone looking for a quality lawn seeding. I left a review on their website to which they replied we killed our own yard when we sprayed it September. In Sept.there was no grass left to kill and you can safely spray a new yard 30 days after established. This company doesn't know grass seeding"

"The pro has been servicing our Mclean property quite well for a couple of years. Our lawn looks good and we are satisfied with the service. The customer service is sometimes underwhelming but it gets the job done at a reasonable cost which is really becoming harder by the day to get."

"Disappointed! Hired to clean out flower beds and mulch as well as trim hedge and plant seed/topsoil where a tree had been removed. Cleaning out the flower bed entailed them cutting everything off with a hedge trimmer and putting mulch on top. When I questioned the back bed and seeing it wasn't edged. they came back pulled some out, said he would check back in the next couple of weeks and spray if anything comes up. As I expected the weeds and things came up through the mulch. My garden lights haven't worked since they were here. Now that I'm far enough removed from my surgery I'll check out what is up with them. Never heard back or saw anyone until I posted this earlier today, now they've just come and took their sign off my porch -- never knocked on the door to check on things or discuss my concerns. Great way to do business."

"Chris from Double H Landworks did a great job. He was prompt, punctual, and communicated clearly with me about the work to be done. His expertise at trimming the trees was exceptional. My driveway and yard are now looking great, after experiencing a rough winter. I would definitely hire this company again. He is very reliable."

FAQs for lawn care aeration projects in Duncannon, PA

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.
