"They do not do the job, They did not keep the promise. I did not cut off from the beginning. He did not refuse from the beginning, instead he told me that I gotta go and see. But did not reply to my messages and I called multiple times he haven't call me back and I kept asking if he will do it but in the end he will not do the job. He did not apologize."

"I hired Carlos Guzmán (Guzman Landscaping) for a $500 yard cleanup, with a written scope of work agreed by email. Before he began, I explained the proven methods my family has used for over 40 years to maintain the yard, including using tarps to gather leaves, placing leaf piles at the far corner, and collecting acorns for County pickup. He assured me he would leave the yard perfect and said he would call me if he had any questions. After the job, I found many areas left unfinished: acorns remained across the yard, crushed leaves were left on the ground, and debris was not removed from the fence line and backyard. I emailed him respectfully and asked him either to return to complete the work or let me know if he preferred not to continue. Instead of responding by email, I received several text messages demanding payment, including instructions to send money to his address or have my bank mail a check. I later received additional messages from the Angi relay number that appeared to represent Angi, adding to the confusion. As a senior customer, the tone and timing of these messages were upsetting. I am seeking a resolution through Angi so this matter can be handled professionally and safely."

FAQs for lawn care aeration projects in Oxon Hill, MD

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.
