Will aeration help a bumpy lawn?

• <div><p>If your lawn has some lumps and bumps, yes, aeration can help—although it may also be beneficial to take on other steps, like irrigation, fertilization, and <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/aerator-vs-dethatcher.htm">dethatching</a> (also known as scarifying). You can also use a power rake to physically break up the bumps in your lawn, which can help you achieve a more even look.</p></div>

Can you speed up grass seed germination?

• <div><p>Speeding up grass seed germination is possible, but it requires quite a bit of extra work and commitment. Keeping the soil moist is key, but here are a few other tried-and-true methods for growing your new grass as quickly as possible:</p><ul><li><p>Mist grass up to eight times per day to keep the soil moist.</p></li><li><p>Purchase a moisture-retaining seed coating for your grass seeds.</p></li><li><p>Amend soil that is compacted or in the wrong pH range.</p></li><li><p>Choose the right grass seed for your area’s climate and soil conditions.</p></li><li><p>Avoid planting on windy days or during periods of extreme rain or drought.</p></li></ul><p></p></div>

What if I water my grass too much in winter?

• <div><p>If you accidentally watered your grass too much during the winter months, try <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/what-is-lawn-aeration.htm">aerating your lawn</a> 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.</p></div>

Will aeration level your lawn?

• <div><p><a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/aeration-to-level-lawn.htm">Aeration can level your lawn</a> if the issue is minor soil compaction, so it can help smooth things out if your yard is bumpy from foot traffic or vehicle traffic. However, it won’t slope your yard. If you have small areas where water seems to pool after precipitation, aeration could help, but larger issues with improperly sloped lawns and problems leading to foundation leaks or structural damage will require more comprehensive solutions.</p></div>

The lawn looks terrible. I’m really disappointed in the quality of work that was done. They skipped a lot of the grass leaving it patchy, and uneven. The girl working was unprofessional. She did communicate quickly, though. The price was fair, but the work we paid for wasn’t done correctly.

Tree and shrub trimming was done quickly and thoroughly, although it took awhile to get it done (it was the busy season and I was told it would be awhile, so that was fine). Cleanup was good and the yard looks very nice. Lawn treatments are helping, although there are some weeds that seem to be...
