Q: Can you just sprinkle grass seed on a lawn?

• <div><p>Technically, yes&mdash;and you may have some successful growth&mdash;but this isn&rsquo;t the ideal way to fill in sparse areas. By clearing leaves and debris, amending the soil, and aerating it properly before you lay the seeds, you&rsquo;re providing the most ideal conditions for them to germinate.</p></div>

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: Is it possible to overseed a lawn without aerating?

• <div><p>Yes, you can overseed your lawn without aerating it, but results may vary. If you have the time, dethatching or aerating your lawn before overseeding will yield the best results. Overseeding your lawn without aerating will work, but less seed will take root. For the best possible results, aerate your lawn before overseeding it.</p></div>

Q: What’s the ideal schedule for aerating a lawn?

• <div><p>The frequency of lawn aeration depends on various factors such as soil type, grass variety, and lawn usage. In most cases, aerating once a year, typically in the fall or early spring, is sufficient to maintain a healthy lawn. However, lawns subject to heavy foot traffic or especially compacted soil may benefit from more frequent aeration, possibly every six months. It's essential to assess your lawn's specific needs and consult with a lawn care professional if you're unsure about the ideal aeration schedule for your property.</p></div>

Q: Are DIY lawn treatments as effective as professional services?

• <div><p>DIY solutions often lack precise formulation and distribution, potentially leading to lawn damage. Professional treatments optimize results with targeted applications.</p></div>

Daniel and his crew did an excellent job. They were very professional and courteous. Several trenches were dug but the job site was cleaned and restore back to the original shape as much as possible. The system works perfectly. I highly recommend T-Squared for irrigation systems.

Jay's Tree Service used a Spider Lift to remove a large tree located, in a difficult place to reach, in my back yard. They protected the turf with mats that the lift could travel over as it moved across the lawn. No damage was done to my lawn. They cleaned up all of the debris before leaving....

Excellent job. They mow the lawn in different directions each time (diagonal one time, back and forth the next) which is a good thing. They have been doing my lawn mowing and gutter cleaning/repairs for several years.
