"Dan was very responsive when I reached out for a quote to repair uneven areas and replace a few broken pavers on our brick paver driveway. The quote was in-line with what we received from other companies so we put down a deposit to start the work based on the positive reviews we read online. After putting down the deposit is where I felt things started to go poorly. They could not provide me a date (rather an estimate) of when their crews would arrive. That is understandable in a business that can be highly dependent on the weather. However, I asked Dan to at least call the day before so we could move our cars from the garage and park them in the street. The workers arrived, did not notify us (beforehand or when they got there!) and started doing work. They had to stop and move their equipment so we could retrieve our cars and have access to them during the day. The workers did a good job leveling the uneven bricks, but they didn't complete some of the tasks from the contract (replacing broken bricks, fixing the plastic edging) and they left their empty soda cans on our driveway. We also pointed out an area that we wanted done in a specific way, and despite being told twice, they still completed it wrong. They left without notifying us they were done or allowing us to review their work. To his credit, Dan sent the crew back out again to deal with the issues, but I still feel the work wasn't done 100% to our standards. I unfortunately cannot recommend them to others."

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.
