A "technician", came to our door, and was in the area, asked us if we would like our lawn aerated. I told my husband maybe we should think about it, as they were charging 100.00, and our lawn is very small. The "technician" insisted that there prices were the best and you couldn't rent a machine for that. He proceeded to aerate our lawn, but stopped because he wanted to see if the neighbours were home so he could aerate their lawn. Once he got in touch with them, he returned to finish the job. He aerated the lawn very fast, and did a very poor job. I called some local businesses in Winnipeg, that deal with aerator rentals, and one company told me they charged $30.00 for 4 hours, and $45.00 for 8. Go figure! Another was $50.00 and they do the aeration for you! When I emailed the company to tell them about their service and prices, all I received was a polite, "the prices suit your lot size". I will never deal with this company again. The "technician" wasn't truthfull and badgered us into a crummy deal. Not a good company to deal with. Definitely shop around before you let someone aerate for that price!!
