"They are great. They really have to maneuver their equipment around my pool and nothing as ever knocked my wood or dropped anywhere on anything. There is a 50 feet Oak that they managed to take care of. It is family owned, very professional, very quick. I called them this afternoon and they came and did the estimate. They are a town business. They are the only tree company i have used. They are very response. He told me he would be here between 3 or 4 and he was here at 3:05."

Garden State Tree and Landscaping Service has been in business for 11 years. What's special about our business is our main anchor in the knowledge, skills and ability of Matt Rusnock. Matt had previously owned Bakers Nursery in Monroe NJ. His business was a garden center and a landscape company. He started there when he was 17 years old, became a partner, then bought out the owner. After many years in the business the local competition forced this "mom and pop" business out of business. Myself, Art Kieffer and Matt have been friends for close to 40 years. At the time of the closing of his business we decided to join as partners.\n\nMatt has a wealth of knowledge in landscape design. The way I put it is: there isn't anything Matt can't do on the outside of someones house.

FAQs for lawn care aeration projects in Oakhurst, 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.
