"Clover lawn called me within 24 hours of the request. They communicated regularly with me, gave me a very reasonable estimate and stayed in touch. The job was completed above and beyond expectations, they even did a final mow after the leaves were removed - even though it wasn't part of the original estimate, without an additional charge. The yard, flower beds and driveway were immaculate. Will use again, they are excellent and very nice people."

Randy was uncooperative, argumentative about how the job was to be done. I asked them to put the cleaned up dirt grass and old mulch at my south retaining wall. He had his man put it in the truck, so I brought my John Deere out with a garden wagon and told them to put it in the cart, which they did. Randy kept telling me how he had gotten two "A's" that day.

Randy wants big jobs like tree removal or pruning. Since this job was prepaid, he had me at his advantage. I will never hire him again. They arrived at 10:30 am, but Randy said it was 10:15 after I told him he owed me six man hours. He said if we get all the work done early we should be able to go, right? I had additional work they could have done, but I couldn't tolerate the attitude and hassle regarding how I wanted the job done.

If you want well manicured lawn scaping done to your specifications, you don't want Randy. If you want a big tree cut down in a hurry, Randy might be your man.

I will never purchase any more "bargains" from Angies List. I paid for six hours of labor and barely got four. He left without asking me to review the work. This coming spring I'll have to retrench all the trees except for the one I trenched myself to show him how I wanted it done.

NO MORE RANDY. NO ORE ANGIE.

FAQs for lawn care aeration projects in Nixa, MO

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.
