From initial concept through ongoing care, we provide innovative solutions that will look good now and continue to grow along with your landscape.

"I followed Justin Mangold from when he worked for a different company to his new startup company, Mangold Horticulture, because he used to care deeply about the quality of the work and customer service. I watched his company struggle with growing pains. He has had trouble with employee turnover and there have been numerous issues with the work performed. I complained about those quality issues as well as the bad attitudes of a couple of their employees and now in April 2019 after 2 years of doing business with him I received an e-mail with a 26% price increase for the 2019 summer lawn care. When I called to ask why I was told that I am a nuisance customer because of the issues I reported and the extra time it takes to do a good job. As a senior citizen recovering from major surgery and living on social security, I can not afford a $452 increase for poor quality lawn care. I was forced to fire them. Based on my experiences with Justin, from before he started his own company, I expected consistently good quality work and fair pricing. All I wanted was a clean evenly cut lawn with good fertilization and weed control, some minor landscaping, and reliable snow plowing. Justin has been unable to provide that. Here is a list of the issues I have had from 2017 to 2019: -On occasion they have failed to mow the entire width of my yard, they have left patches of standing grass throughout the yard, they trimmed edges down to the dirt killing the grass, they mowed over and left debris in the yard, they failed to provide all the contracted fertilization and weed control applications, the weed control products were ineffective, and they failed to complete 15 feet of the last landscaping project. They also plastered the side of my truck with grass clippings several times and there is no legitimate excuse for that. On one particular day a worker pushed a few 2 and 3 foot long fallen branches out of his way as he mowed and left them there. When I asked him to remove them, he got hostile and told me were to go. Our agreement called for a smaller walk-behind mower in my backyard because of the soft ground and on occasion I found them using the big heavy riding mowers that leave ruts. In addition, they consistently failed to plow the driveway full width by 1 to 3 feet each side. On one occasion they plowed into the middle of my yard after I had complained. They also occasionally plowed 4-10 hours before the end of the snow storm and then expected a second payment to come back and finish the job on the same day."

Local lawn care and landscape company committed to excellent customer service by providing quality services for affordable pricing.

"Hired for lawn service. Had to contact everyone to see what the schedule was for service. Said they would come out if needed but were missing yards because of the rain and then didnt. Final service they blew grass all over everything and didn’t properly mow and weedeat everything and then they cancelled service before I could."

Lawn care aerations FAQs

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.
