Q: What are the signs I need to aerate my lawn?

• <div><p>Try the tool test first. A screwdriver or a similarly long, thin tool will work best, as spades and shovels are too big. If something still seems off despite the screwdriver smoothly going into the soil, look for other signs that you need aeration, like thinning grass, discolored areas, and puddles forming on your lawn after light rain. This indicates poor drainage because of too many areas being compacted.</p></div>

Q: What is the screwdriver test for a lawn?

• <div><p>The screwdriver test involves trying to push a screwdriver into your lawn. If it goes in easily, you&rsquo;re likely overwatering and should cut back. If there&rsquo;s moderate resistance, you have a good watering schedule and soil composition. If there&rsquo;s a lot of resistance or you can&rsquo;t get the screwdriver into the soil, you may need to aerate your lawn to reduce compaction and increase your watering schedule.</p></div>

Q: What is the price range for aerating a lawn based on its size and the technique applied?

• <div><p>Costs range from $50 to $200, depending on lawn size and method used.</p></div>

Q: How can I keep my lawn looking healthy?

• <div><p>There are several best practices you can do to keep your lawn looking healthy. Knowing <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/water-lawn-hot-weather.htm">when to water grass</a> is among the most important. Having your sprinkler timer set to early morning is best because it gives your grass and plants enough time to absorb water before the sun and wind can evaporate it. To maximize a sprinkler&rsquo;s impact, aerate your lawn once or twice per year. Doing this achieves better absorption and stronger root systems for your grass.</p></div>

Q: Will my dry lawn come back?

• <div><p>Treating dry soil can bring back a dormant lawn, but not a dead one. After nurturing a dry lawn back to proper moisture levels, you should closely observe whether your grass revives with the soil. If not, you may need to reseed your lawn or start fresh with new turf. </p></div>

He does a good job. He will trim shrubs but he does not do that for us. He was doing the lawn before we moved in so he was familiar with the lawn. We told him not to mow the grass when it was wet and he did not. When the grass was dry we called him and he came out. I would recommend him.
