When is the best time for aeration in Albuquerque, NM?+

Can I cancel any time?+

What grass type does aeration in Albuquerque target?+

Most Albuquerque lawns are Bermuda and Zoysia. Our aeration program is calibrated to those species and to the local hot and dry climate, not a generic national playbook.

How does Albuquerque's climate change aeration timing?+

In Albuquerque, the active growing window runs year round with summer focus. We schedule aeration around that window so visits land when they actually move the needle - earlier or later than the national calendar when local soil temps demand it.
