"Several years ago, I stood admiring my sonâ s beautiful lawn on what only months ago had been a post construction barren plain. Asking how he managed to accomplish such a dramatic change in so short a time, he shared that â Alternate Earthcareâ was responsible. My own lawn looked like a sparse, trampled fairway. I called â Alternate Earthcareâ and by the end of the first season I was enjoying a thick green lawn."

"I was pleased with the work.I initial meeting with Tonny was great, he informed
us on our male mulberry tree, and shared
tips on how to take better care him. Eve called and confirmed a date of
service, shortly after we received and confirmed on the contract. On
the day of pruning, Tonny and his team showed up on time and did an
amazing job on our tree! Our neighbor came over and was so impressed
that he too said he would call and use Double Tree for his tree! We also
mentioned Angie's List and we got a discount as well!  Thank you, thank
you, thank you! I strongly recommend Double Tree Services."

"All I can say is EXCELLENT! Rob scheduled his crew to be on-site within a few days. He explained everything upfront, took on any questions, addressing concerns and made me feel rest assured that his crew will take care of everything. A few days later, a crew of 12 showed up at 7:30 AM, (was not expecting them till 8:00AM) with heavy duty equipment, Bobcat, cherry picker truck, & heavy duty wood chipper.  They stopped working at 7:30PM and did not leave till 8:00PM! , taking care of everything promised and more. They kept me informed constantly through the day, any changes I wanted done were handled without any problem. They had two foreman managing the other 10 workers on the site. While one was in the running the operation above ground (in the trees) the other was  running operations on the ground (land clearing and debris cleanup, wood chipping etc.  I've been in the customer service business, so I know what it takes...these guys get an  A+ (5 Stars) in my book. I strongly recommend them.

FAQs for rototilling projects in Plainview, NY

The average cost to have rototilling done on your property is around $250, and most homeowners pay between $100 and $350. The total for your rototilling project will depend on the area you need tilled, the quality of the soil, how many roots and shrubs are in the area, and the accessibility of the area. Anything that increases the time to till your soil—like hard clay soil, small entrances to the area that require the use of smaller tools, and roots running through the ground—will all increase your costs.

Yes, rototilling has many benefits. Rototilling is a great way to aerate the soil in your garden, introduce fertilizer, and remove weeds from your soil to prep it for planting, so it is very often a worthwhile expense. You can get by without rototilling if you’re willing to use manual tools, but the work will take much longer and is very labor-intensive. If you’re looking to prepare your garden for planting or your soil for new grass growth, rototilling is relatively inexpensive and almost always worth the money.

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.
