    Mine was also done by property stars on Friday afternoon. I think it cost me $85 for the front and back lawns and outside my fence (live on a corner lot). Am i supposed to pick up the soil plugs now or let them be?

    It's just soil, it will go back into the ground eventually. Or you go pick them up and throw them at random people.

    spacerz just finished a power rake + aerate for me in the north in Huntington Hills.

    Good guy, and a great job. Would definitely recommend you give him a call if you need this done. Especially with a portion of proceeds going to charity. Thx again!

    Property stars just showed up outta the blue
    And did my front and back yard for 52.50 score.
    Mofo looked so exhausted I had to offer him
    Water while I drank a fresh beer.
    A Ferrari is a high maintenance chick, you spend money regardless of what you do with her. You can baby the C63, or slap on all seasons, and you won't be spending anything but yearly maintenance. Of course that's like dating a stripper and refusing to fuck her, which would make you gay.

    Too much thatch can prevent air and water getting to the soil and roots effectively. I'm a believier that healthy grass doesn't make much thatch, so some lawns may not benefit. Aeration is the same thing, removes plugs of soil to prevent the ground from becoming too compacted. Also depending on what your soil is like, after you aerate, you can top-dress with mulch/soil/sand/seed/fertilizer or whatever you think you need. At my place, I'm planning to top dress with sand and seed only, as the soil is pretty dense, and I'm trying to get more fescue to grow instead of bluegrass.

    TLDR, the roots need air and water, and these things help.

    Spacerz was just at my place, and man that's one hard working dude. The aerator is a heavy beast, but he man-handled it into every corner of my yard.

    Thanks bud!

    Spacerz came out and aerated and power raked my lawn on Friday. Great service into a long weekend and the results were great.
    He has increased his rate but still a deal and why not pay a beyonder over someone else on Kijiji... Thanks.

    Ditto!!! Had him over by my house this weekend, and he did a pretty good and consistent job. Would love to have him over as well.
