"Brian was very professional, knowledgeable and went the extra mile. The only reason I did not hire him was a family friend gave me a deal on a less expensive design, one which I could not refuse. Honestly, I may regret my decision as Brian's design was very impressive. Thanks Brian...I will refer you to any who ask."

"I had a great experience with Leo and Russell. They completed several projects for me, including repairing a plumbing leak under my bathroom sink, fixing my exterior water spouts, and installing a new mailbox post and mailboxes. They were professional, knowledgeable, and paid close attention to detail throughout the entire job. Everything was completed with quality workmanship, and they followed up to make sure I was happy with the work that was done. I'm very happy with the results, would definitely use their services again, and would highly recommend them to anyone looking for reliable, honest, and skilled handymen."

Lawns questions, answered by experts

Leaf removal, aeration, dethatching, mowing, pruning, and fertilizing are activities that prepare lawns for the next season.

If you want to take the decomposition process into your hands to speed it up, water and sunlight are key. Of course, you can’t control sunlight yourself, but you can rake leaves into piles in sunny spots in your yard. In terms of using water, you can also moisten the decomposing leaves with water, whether by pouring some from a watering can from time to time or using a hose to moisten them.

To prepare your lawn for core aeration, water it the day before you aerate. (Alternatively, you can wait until it rains and aerate the following day.) Aerating after watering or a rainy day will make the process easier since you can penetrate moist soil better than dry soil. You should also flag your sprinklers so that you don’t accidentally hit them while aerating. If you have a lot of thatch buildup in your yard, you might need to dethatch your lawn before aerating as well.

The time it takes for leaves to decompose can range from six months to three years. Key factors influencing the decomposition rate include water, sunlight, and heat, so local weather conditions play a significant role. Decomposition will take longer for thick, matted layers of leaves. To speed up the process, you can mulch the leaves, as smaller pieces break down faster. Spreading large piles into thinner layers to increase exposure to sunlight and water also helps accelerate decomposition.

In most cases, it’s better to remove rocks before adding mulch. Layering the two will restrict drainage and plant health, and can create an unpleasant texture underfoot.
