"Do NOT hire Natural Green Systems Lawn and Pest. The salesman will promise you "a lawn that looks like Arlington and a warranty if it doesn't work." They do NOT stand by their promises nor their warranty. My lawn looks terrible a year and a half later after paying them thousands of dollars. Stay away from this company."

Jesryn Landscaping is a locally owned and operated landscaping company. We specialize in landcaping, hardscaping, mowing, trimming, cutting trees, pavers, concrete, fencing and any other outdoor needs.

"The entire experience from 1st consultation, until the job was completed was seamless and very professional. Julio walked through the project with me as I explained what I wanted/needed and he communicated what could and couldn't be done while detailing the why behind his conclusions/suggestions. My landscaping had been neglected for the past few years and it was a heavy lift with hugely overgrown shrubs, out of control vines and super sized weeds that looked like bushes. From consultation, to proposal, scheduling and job completion all done in a 2 week time frame. I will be using Julio and his team for all my future landscape needs."

FAQs for lawn care aeration projects in Shady Side, 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.
