"They were very prompt and professional. A heavy snowfall had just covered the area and we weren't familiar with any local snow removal services. Angie's list put us in touch with Barton's cutting edge and they said they would come look at the job and give an estimate. They came the following morning, (with no one home) called and agreed with the price and started immediately. They even texted a pic of the finished job and allowed to set up payment via email. I'll definitely be calling them again!"

Rototilling questions, answered by experts

For minor unevenness, you don't necessarily need to remove grass before leveling. You can apply a topdressing mixture to fill in low areas and even out the surface. However, for more significant unevenness or deep depressions, it might be necessary to temporarily remove the grass to ensure proper leveling and soil compaction. After filling and leveling, you can replace the grass or consider reseeding the area.

Yes, you can rent a rototiller for around $60 per day and do the work yourself, but it’s not recommended. Tilling is more of an art than a science, as tilling too deep can be detrimental to your soil structure and the organic matter that is beneficial to plants and shrubs, and tilling too shallow won’t properly introduce fertilizer or break up the soil for rooting plants. Additionally, tillers are powerful machines with sharp blades to cut through small roots and soil, so they are inherently dangerous to use. It’s usually worth it to hire a professional rototiller.

You should dig 3 to 6 inches deep for plastic edging. Dig as wide as you need to fit your plastic edging into it—2 inches is usually sufficient.

Water pooling, uneven surfaces, or basement leaks are indicators.
