Lawn Aeration

Lawn Aeration is the process of taking a 350 pound machine (aerator), running it over the lawn to remove thousands of tiny dirt plugs, and leaving them on the grass to provide a natural top-dressing. It will look as a gaggle of geese had come and gone!

Most lawns suffer from:

  1. Compaction (from traffic, snow, rain)
  2. Thatch (a build-up off un-decomposed grass clippings and debris)
  3. Lack of micro-organism activity within the soil

All of these contribute to poor lawn appearance.

Deep Core Aeration improves your lawn by:

  1. Reducing soil compaction (immediately)
  2. Improving air exchange between the soil and atmosphere (immediately)
  3. Reducing water run-off and puddling (immediately)
  4. Improving fertilizer absorption (within 2 weeks)
  5. Improving rooting (within 3 weeks)
  6. Enhancing thatch breakdown (within 1 month)
  7. Improving resiliency, cushioning and disease tolerance (within 1 month)

Aeration takes some effort but within 3 weeks your lawn will be healthier, stronger and better looking. To learn more about our services, please visit our lawn care packages page.
