"Jay and his team are amazing! I contacted them super last minute in the season for a fall cleanup/leaf removal in the last week of the pickup timeframe for our town. Jay got back to me immediately and came out within 24 hours for a quote, gave a very fair price, and arrived to complete the work within a couple days (was delayed because of weather). His team was punctual and he alerted me of their ETA and arrival promptly. They were super efficient, paid attention to detail, worked around our hard obstacles and were very professional. I will 100% have them back to do fall cleanups annually and will be requesting a quote going forward for lawncare maintenance. Would highly recommend Jay and his crew!"

Lawn dethatching services FAQs

Dethatching machines look like lawnmowers but have blades that cut down in crisscrossing motions. This action loosens the thatch, which is then raked up separately and removed. You might see some dethatching machines with rake-like tines. These often do not offer the best experience compared to those with blades.

You should fertilize your lawn after dethatching. This gives the damaged grass a solid nutrient boost to aid quick recovery, helping your lawn to grow back greener and stronger. Fertilizing before dethatching wastes your time, money, and energy and may even damage your lawn.

Yes, dethatching is worth it if you've got a thick thatch layer. Grab a trowel, dig up a small section of soil and grass, and check how thick the thatch layer is. If it's an inch or more, and you're noticing problems like thinning grass, weak, patchy grass, or pale coloring, it could be time to dethatch to restore health and vigor.

The cost to reseed a lawn typically ranges from $400 to $1,800. The total price often depends on the size of your lawn and the type of service needed.
