"I hired them to aerate my lawn. The price was fair, they were able to schedule my yard in less than two weeks and the time it took to complete the job was quick, payment made only after job completion and payment options were convenient. The owner Ricky communicated with me by text and answered all my questions. Carl did the actual job and he was very personable and knowledgeable."
"They did an outstanding job within the agreed time frame. My yard was horrible but it’s one of the best looking one on my block. I will reach out to New Ground Services on any of my lawn maintenance and design services."
"I was very pleased with my ULS experienced. They were personable and quick to respond to my request for a quote. The quote was very fair (if not below what I was anticipating) and the work was done quickly. Billing and follow-up was a breeze. I truly have no complaints about my experience!"
"Our experience with Erick and his crew has been GREAT. We were first referred to them to repair some shoddy work that was done by another irrigation contractor. They had to weave around existing plants and concrete, but got the system fixed with no disruption to the landscaping. We then hired them to install a new system in our backyard and around our pool. It was a complex job with multiple elevations around retaining walls, with separate lines for trees, lawn, planter areas, and even stone planters that are built into our pool coping. Their system works great and we’ve now used them for about a year for all of our weekly and seasonal landscape maintenance.
They are a young crew, but very knowledgeable and polite."
"Blake did an excellent and thorough job. We had a leak that he diagnosed and fixed which ended up being a roof issue. He repaired some exterior window framing and also installed new tile floors. He is very detail oriented and his work is impeccable. I have already referred him to neighbors and will definitely use him again."
"Monche is the man!!!!! He does excellent work, came to my home on a Sunday. Mounted a 86” LG TV in about an hour. Excellent, clean work and priced professionally. Thank you Monche and your beautiful wife"
"Ethan's communication throughout the entire process of hydroseeding our new construction area was exceptional. Not only did he provide the best pricing by far, but he was also knowledgeable, timely, and professional. My yard did great even given the drought that we've been through. Couldn't ask for better service and will continue to use for further projects/needs in the future."
To prepare your lawn for core aeration, water it the day before you aerate. (Alternatively, you can wait until it rains and aerate the following day.) Aerating after watering or a rainy day will make the process easier since you can penetrate moist soil better than dry soil. You should also flag your sprinklers so that you don’t accidentally hit them while aerating. If you have a lot of thatch buildup in your yard, you might need to dethatch your lawn before aerating as well.
How often you should maintain your yard depends on your climate and what season it is. A general rule of thumb is to maintain a lawn height of three inches.
Pruning bushes will encourage new growth and flowering and keep them hardy. Removing dead and diseased branches is vital to your bush's health. It can also deter pests from infesting your bushes. Not only is it beneficial to the bushes, trimming and shaping them will make your lawn look lush and polished.
Depending on the method you choose to remove grass, it may or may not matter whether the grass is wet or dry when you perform the task. A dryer lawn will be easier to negotiate with a sod cutter, especially if you're not planning to reuse the turf. However, using a shovel by hand might be a little easier if the ground is slightly damp but not so much that it sticks to the tool.
The best way to clean artificial turf is to use a stiff-bristled broom or rake to loosen up any large debris once a week. The process will also redistribute the infill material that keeps your turf blades standing up straight and evenly. For artificial turf maintenance, do not vacuum your turf or apply cleaning solutions. If you need to rinse the blades, spritz them with a light hose.
