"I would give them minus stars if possible. They installed the irrigation system at the newly built home I purchased. I then continued with them to activate and winterize the system for 2-3 years. The office person is by far the rudest person I have ever encountered. Every time you call .. The first question asked is ;did you pay for the service Makes you want to say well no, of course not, I expect you to do it for free. I prepaid every year, but somehow my system never got activated until I called and complained that my new sod was looking bad .. Then I always had to prove I had paid and listen to their excuses. Last year the owner even had the nerve to tell me the system was on and running but I was too stupid to know it!! But then had no explanation or apology when I proved the control for the system was in the "OFF" position. I was charged $75.00 each for two visits last summer when I asked if the system needed to be set differently. The first time the owner was in the area and stopped for all of 5 minutes and argued with me about what I wanted done. The second time he did not even stop and check the system but charged for a service call anyway. I have a another company doing my service this year, they are friendly explanation, polite and do a stellar job. I would not recommend this company to my worst enemy!"

Lawns questions, answered by experts

Power seeding and aeration are both great ways to improve the health of your lawn, but one isn’t better than the other. Aeration alone doesn’t involve planting grass seeds; instead, this service is focused on improving soil health. Aeration is a great service to do before any type of seeding to make seeding more effective.

Plug aeration is more effective than spike aeration, although it mars the appearance of your lawn until the plugs decompose. This can take a few weeks and some homeowners find it distressing, especially if they are planning an event and can't have guests stepping on the soil cores. Liquid aeration is just as effective without having to bore holes.

There are several possible reasons why your Bermuda grass is not thick, with the biggest reasons being too little water, too much shade, compacted soil, drainage issues, and too few nutrients in the soil. Bermuda grass needs frequent and direct sunlight to stay thick, so thinning grass is likely the result of a lack of sun. 

If you accidentally watered your grass too much during the winter months, try aerating your lawn to encourage absorption of the water into the soil and improve drainage. Dethatching your lawn can also help the solid recover from overwatering and encourage healthy root and stalk health in your grass.

Raking only moves soil, leaves, and debris around on the surface. Aerating your lawn addresses compacted soil. Core aeration loosens up the soil, which makes it healthier and creates more verdant grass from the richer nutrients and stronger root systems that develop. Raking only provides short-term benefits, while aeration creates higher-quality soil and grass growth in the long term. Rake or dethatch before aerating for a bigger benefit to your lawn.
