"Mickey performs excellent landscaping work. He installed fescue grass in our backyard, refurbished the flower beds, and created paths made with river rocks. The best testimony of Mickey's work and talents comes from the guy who cares for our lawn throughout the year. John says the fescue lawn and its installation is the best he has seen"

"Regrettably I never heard back from them. I called for an estimate for lawn service and maintenance back in late March. I left my name and phone number with the receptionist, but never received a call back. Upon submitting my review I have heard from the owner, Mike Aynes, and have accepted his explanation. He followed up his detailed letter with a phone call and has since handled everything very professional. If the need arises I would use him for future business."

"I have been using them all summer to do my yard work too. Over time they consistently have kept up with mowing and edging as we agreed in the spring. I am delighted with the services and would recommend them to every one. My yard was a mess with limbs and derbies. They quickly an efficiently removed it all and hauled it away. They were well within the time they had predicted and in budget. This is one of the reasons I gave the my summer years work. Now that fall has started I'm ready for clean up again and plan to use them. I was thinking I would never get that annoying drip iin the kitchen sink fixed when I mentioned that to Brandon he had a man who got it fixed quick. Then my garbage disposal began leaking! The same man picked up my new one for me and installed it. He later came back to clean up my porch and trim my rose bushes. A very nice man. When I was ready to get down to business with my housecleaning they had two wonderful workers who came to my house and made it look like I had hoped. Later one lady came back and cleaned all my windows. They really needed it! I can see out to my clean yard now! My daughter and her husband needed back yard clean up after storm damage. They did another really great job. My daughter plans to use them again this year too. <br />"

FAQs for lawn care aeration projects in Washington, OK

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.
