Aeration Special

Core Aeration is the process of pulling “plugs” of soil.  The plugs “melt” back into the lawn and mix with the thatch. This speeds up the process of thatch decomposition, and helps keep it under control. A heavy thatch layer can contribute to serious insect, lawn disease or drought damage, requiring renovation. With regular aeration, thatch can usually be kept under control and seldom becomes a serious lawn threat.  Many soils (especially heavy clays) become hard or compacted over time. The small and tightly packed soil particles have little space between them for water, air and roots. Lawn aeration lets the soil expand, and the space between soil particles is increased. Lawn roots, water and air can all penetrate deeper in looser, more open soil. With regular aeration, the soil becomes “softer” and your lawn is healthier and thicker as a result.

10,000 “Growth Zones” for Reseeding Lawn


When aeration cores are pulled, the thatch “barrier” is broken and soil is exposed. This creates an excellent opportunity to further thicken the lawn with over-seeding.  Whenever your lawn is seeded, it’s important to put the seed in good contact with the soil. By breaking through the thatch, lawn aeration allows grass seed to make good soil contact.  When seed lodges in the soil from the aeration cores or in the core holes left in the lawn, the rate of germination is much higher and your over-seeding is more successful.
