"I hired these people to do my backyard and paver. They did an excellent job doing it. When something doesn’t look right to them, they fixed it for free! This is what I call a good service.

Contact The NL Group in Lake Barrington today for all your needs in snow removal, hardscaping, landscape installation and design, and more.
"The landscapers at NL Group were wonderful. First of all, our weather has been a problem: too many heavy storms, too much heat in the 90s. Our yard took a beating. The landscapers came out, prepared the soil, added new dirt, positioned sod ( not the dried out sod you sometimes see, but lovely green healthy sod). They started the sprinkler, and gave us instructions about watering. The new grass blends in beautifully with our established lawn. We are very pleased. The crew took care of our property, but then they always do. Yearly we have them take care of our landscaping concerns because they are reliable and thorough, besides being nice."

Lawn dethatching services FAQs
Dethatching machines look like lawnmowers but have blades that cut down in crisscrossing motions. This action loosens the thatch, which is then raked up separately and removed. You might see some dethatching machines with rake-like tines. These often do not offer the best experience compared to those with blades.
You should fertilize your lawn after dethatching. This gives the damaged grass a solid nutrient boost to aid quick recovery, helping your lawn to grow back greener and stronger. Fertilizing before dethatching wastes your time, money, and energy and may even damage your lawn.
Yes, dethatching is worth it if you've got a thick thatch layer. Grab a trowel, dig up a small section of soil and grass, and check how thick the thatch layer is. If it's an inch or more, and you're noticing problems like thinning grass, weak, patchy grass, or pale coloring, it could be time to dethatch to restore health and vigor.
The cost to reseed a lawn typically ranges from $400 to $1,800. The total price often depends on the size of your lawn and the type of service needed.
