"The fence work was performed on a wet muddy day. The crew did a good job of not doing damage to the lawn and cleaned up the work area. The crew installed the fence the way that I requested. There is a large dip in the lawn and the crew installed the level across the dip as requested."

"After the first service they sold out to Trugreen. After the first service the lawn appeared perky and weeds were curling up. After Trugreen took over. They have been late on treatments. We've had to call they haven't communicated. The lawn doesn't appear perky. Weeds don't look like they are fazed. Based on the delayed schedule they are not likely to get in all the treatments we prepaid for. Disappointed."

Lawn Dethatching questions, answered by experts

Early spring or early fall, when the grass is actively growing and weather conditions are mild, presents ideal times for dethatching.

The time you should wait before walking on new grass depends on whether you used seed or sod. If you laid new grass seed, it's best to wait about eight weeks before stepping on it, as new grass is fragile. For sod, it typically establishes itself in the ground in about two weeks. For heavy traffic, like driving a car across a new grass driveway, you might need to wait an entire season.

Raking leaves in the fall can reduce lawn diseases. If you want to make this a one-time chore, you can wait until most leaves have fallen and do it all at once on a dry, clear day. Some people prefer to rake as they fall to make their yards easier to maintain, but it depends on your preference.

No, grass pavers don’t require a lot of maintenance. However, you’ll need to keep the grass in between the pavers trimmed down just like you would with your lawn.

The easiest way to rough up soil to accept grass seed and provide the best opportunity for its growth is to make several passes over the area with a garden tiller and rake away the loosened vegetation and debris. However, in some cases, very hard ground may require using a shovel or pick to break up pieces into smaller chunks that the tiller can handle more easily.
