"⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ 5 Stars for NGLCG! Tyler and Jacob were fantastic. Earlier this year, they built us an outdoor patio covering with a stone fireplace and outdoor kitchen island. Tyler understood our vision from the beginning and brought it to life — he made it better than we imagined! He was very mindful of our budget and would provide suggestions on ways to cut cost without compromising what we wanted. Of course, every decision was still up to us. The quality of their work is fantastic and extremely detailed. I was so appreciative of the hours and time they put into our project. I would recommend them to anyone! To find an honest builder that does quality work and fair pricing is a rare-find, and I am so thrilled that my family was blessed to work with Tyler!"

"My experience with Pest Ban and their family of companies has been one of the worst vendor experiences i've ever had. In November of 2023 we hired PestBan to get rid of roof rats that had infested our house from overhanding trees. Throughout the course of the service, which cost several thousand dollars, i encountered: 1. Perhaps the biggest issue is that we still have rats! Four months later and the rats have effectively beaten and outsmarted the company whose sole job is to get rid of them! 2.Overpromise and under delivery -- the technician providing the quote assured me that they would not stop until the job was done and the rats were gone. They would work top to bottom and inside / out to get the job done. Boy did this not happen! 3. Maybe the worst communication i've ever seen -- following each appointment i asked for a follow up appointment and tried to set dates to get exclusions and cleaning / deodorization done. This never happened! Not once! Every time i had to call them myself to schedule the next service or i would never hear back. Each time i complained and the issue never got fixed. 4. Not our job -- I was told multiple after pointing out new entry / exit points for the rats that Pest Ban doesn't handle that and that i'd have to find a different vendor. This wouldn't be such a big deal if the technician didn't promise comprehensive service. 5. Low quality work -- You would think that Pest Ban would be good at their only job -- finding and closing off the rat entry points. But boy was that not the case. After each visit i went around and found places that they missed and had to call them back out and point out the gap. Even their own technicians made repeated comments such as, "i'm not sure how they missed that. It's really obvious". This went on for at least 4 visits in a row. So, in summary, find a better vendor! Pest Ban will charge you a lot and leave you with a lighter wallet, a list of complaints, and a house full of rodents."

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.
