Hello to keep it short and simple. I come from a background of doing auto body and mechanics on vehicles I still do some very small mechanics on vehicles such as brakes and replacing items. I've been building decks for more than 3 years I have about 3 years of hardscaping and landscaping. I have about 7 years of painting experience. Definitely would call myself a jack of all trades a handyman with a very fine touch

Lawn Care questions, answered by experts

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.

Yes—hiring a professional lawn care company is worth it if you don’t have much free time to devote to lawn care. Lawn care pros will ensure that your lawn receives the vital nutrients it needs to grow and thrive, and you’re guaranteed to have a healthy, beautiful lawn. Aside from that, it’s a convenient service that frees up your time so you can do the things you love and enjoy. 

Too much clover in your lawn can indicate several issues with your soil. Clover can thrive in soils with abnormally high pH, low-cut grass, and low nitrogen. Amending these issues can push clover out for good.

Hardy perennial clover loves the low nitrogen and compact conditions that often come with poor, infertile soils. But other factors also contribute to a clover explosion, including drought conditions, cool temperatures, under fertilization, and over-irrigation. You’ll need to evaluate all these elements when planning to kill off the clover.

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

Fescue grass is a relatively low-maintenance grass type, meaning it doesn’t require much more attention than regular watering, dethatching, and mowing. Some fescues even grow slowly enough for hard-to-reach areas, particularly those inaccessible by the mower. Following a seasonal maintenance schedule will help your fescue lawn stay green, healthy, and durable for years to come.
