An estimate was provided the next day, and the price seemed more than fair. I agreed to it and Mike's crew were there the next morning taking care of everything with little disruption. Leaves were piled neatly for the city to vacuum (which they did that afternoon), beds were de-weeded, and the lawn provided with winterizing fertilizer. Mike came to check in afterwards and ensured the work was done. I assumed I would be mowing our property after the winter, but after the work that was done this week I'll definitely considering contracting Pontonio's Lawn Service to take care of it for us so we can focus on the gardening and just enjoy the lawn and landscaping.

We also have a number of mature oak trees on the property, although we have had some of these trees removed during the last few years. Finally we believe that our expectations are reasonable. We're not looking for a putting green. We just want a nice lawn, like everyone else. The first two years went fairly well and were an improvement over the previous lawn fertilization company. The third year was average. We seemed to have a few more weeds along the perimeter, i.e along fences and concrete walks. There was also very little grass in a small triangular area surrounded by a six foot fence, a concrete walk and a storage shed. Things got worse in year 4. The number of weeds increased. My wife felt that the technician was skipping the back yard, although we couldn't be certain. By late summer the grass was thin, except for the front area, which by then had complete, direct sunlight (no trees). Year five became the deal breaker. The weeds were a lot worse. I was on my knees in the front yard pulling out the many chickweeds. I finally wondered why I needed to perform this activity -- since I was paying for a lawn service! My wife had since retired. She was able to actually witness the Pro Lawn technician skipping the aforementioned triangular area. She contacted Pro Lawn with poor results. Finally on one occasion the Pro Lawn technician damaged a simple,wooden post trash can protection assembly that I had built a number of years ago. The technician initially stated that he only bumped the assembly. Despite repeated phone calls the assembly was never repaired by Pro Lawn. One Pro Lawn employee told my wife during a phonecall that his wife could repair the damage in 20 minutes. I'm still waiting for her to show up. This year I'm growing chickweeds in the front lawn. All thanks to Pro Lawn."},"url":"https://www.angi.com/companylist/us/nj/vincentown/pro-lawn-reviews-6543247.htm"},"position":10}]}

"Ended up being a HORRIBLE experience. Never again. Everything started off great. Sign up for service. I was told I'd receive a call the day before the Tech was scheduled to come, and they would service the front and back yards. Fast forward a week, no call from Ned's or Tech, someone just shows up. Guy walks around the house, takes pictures, treats the front yard, and leaves. I call because no one told me he was coming, and he didn't do the backyard. I'm asked to provide proof; unfortunately, my old camera system can't handle a 20-minute download to prove that the customer is not lying. I've been waiting a week to speak to the rep who signed me up, but I haven't received a call. Because the Tech said he completed the work, they believe him. If I could give Zero Stars, I woiuld."

Lawns questions, answered by experts
Timing is based on grass type and local climate, ensuring optimal results.
When you don’t aerate your lawn, the soil will become more compact over time. This limits how much water can soak in to reach the roots of your grass, and it keeps oxygen and carbon dioxide from the plant roots. This can limit grass growth, which may sound great for limiting mowing, but it also leads to a lawn full of grass that looks dull and sparse. Eventually, compacted soil can weaken grass, while also making it more vulnerable to pests, diseases, and erosion and even causing it to die off.
When hiring a lawn aeration professional, they may suggest other related services to get your lawn looking lush and fabulous. Prior to scheduling any of the following services, you should consult your lawn care pro about the order and timing of multiple projects to ensure best results for your grass. These services might include:
Hydroseeding over an existing lawn is possible, but certain adjustments are necessary since the process is for bare soil. Hydroseed mix is usually very thick, which helps protect the seeds during germination. If you have existing grass on your site and still want to hydroseed, it's better to use a finer mulch mixture when spraying. A finer mulch mix means the seeds can root into existing soil without suffocating the existing grass.
Short answer: yes. Although aeration is beneficial for most lawns and soil types, if it’s done too frequently, you can weaken the grass’s roots so much that they’ll begin to have trouble. Generally, most lawns can be aerated as infrequently as once every one to three years, although those with more foot traffic and compaction may benefit from aeration up to twice yearly.
