"Very well. Contractor was skilled at his trade, drywall was installed, taped, and mudded in a timely and skillful manner. He was/is punctual in keeping appointment and doing the work. Gave an estimate for the job that was reasonable. When done he cleaned up the work area. Jerry did such a nice job that my wife and I will keep his card and contact him in the future for home remodeling projects."

"We hired a large hardscape project to be completed in 4-6 weeks from a landscape company. When that landscaper was unable to complete the job and abandoned the job late in the fall (in breech of contract), we hired Smith Tree and Landscape to complete minimal work to mitigate safety concerns for the condition the the first landscaper left the yard in. This included making the front walk usable and the front door accessible, removing excess material from the original grade, and general clean up. I had met with the designer for Smith Landscaping to walk through the project site and we agreed to a scope of work. After Smith Tree and Landscape staff were onsite for 2 hours, the job was presented as completed. Unfortunately, a number of items previously confirmed to be in scope were not completed. Another staff person (Mark) followed up and arranged for some of the items to be completed as previously agreed to, but indicated there was not enough material onsite to bring the walkway to the front of the house to a height in which the previously installed step could be used to access the front porch (The previous walkway was removed by the earlier landscape and left dug out in prep for base material, uneven, and covered with leaves. Smith Tree was going to grade and cover with plywood). After much back and forth and follow up, Mark constructed steps for use in accessing the front porch. Mark however, indicated that was not enough material on site to address the height of the walk. As compensation to not filling the trenches or raising the level of walk, Mark offered a discount to the balance, but despite multiple requests, an adjusted statement was never received to reflect the adjustment. With the thaw in the spring, we were able to confirm that in excess of 6" of new material was left over the original grade in much of the yard, despite being very clear about not having more than 2" of additional material (more than 2" can cause damage to the root system of the trees in the yard). Also this spring, the steps failed while someone was stepping up on the front porch causing minor personal injury. Smith did not respond to communication regarding our concerns with the steps provided. When we removed the broken steps, we lifted the plywood to find no grading or raking had been done - as they was a layer of leaves under the plywood. We also added 6 wheelbarrow loads of dirt to the area to raise the grade (without making a dent in the material left in the yard) in to easily use the previous step. And despite asking to meet in person and follow up communication that we had not received an updated balance statement, they referred our account to collections. Prior to this, we had been a long term customer of Smith Tree and Landscape using their tree related services to maintain the health of the trees in our yard. I do not know if the lack of customer service or concern for customer safety is a result of recent company organizational changes, but given the lack of quality services and care for public safety, we will not be using them again."

The optimal aeration timing depends on your grass type. Cool-season grasses benefit most from aeration in early fall or spring when they're actively growing. Warm-season varieties respond better to late spring or early summer aeration. Regardless of grass type, avoid aerating during dormant periods when your lawn can't readily recover from the temporary stress.
The time required varies based on lawn size, terrain complexity, and equipment type. Most homeowners can complete their aeration project within the timeframe of a daily rental. Factors that may extend the process include obstacles in the yard, particularly compacted soil, or challenging terrain features like slopes or uneven surfaces.
Yes, many lawn care experts suggest that aerating and seeding during the same session can be beneficial to your lawn’s growth and overall health. The aeration process creates ideal conditions for seed-to-soil contact, potentially improving germination success. This approach can be particularly effective during the appropriate seasonal windows for your specific grass type.
