We offer core aeration in and around Grand Rapids, Holland, and Rockford, MI.

You can schedule core aeration from summer to fall!

The soil where your grass grows should be in good shape to provide it with a stellar growing environment. Here at Tuff Turf, we offer our core aeration service to help ensure the soil is loose enough to allow the roots of your grass to absorb nutrients and other essential resources. This service involves pulling up plugs of soil from the ground to create holes where these nutrients can pass through and reach the roots. You can schedule this service from summer to fall, between June and early November. We'll also send out a notification before we visit your property so you can prepare your lawn before we aerate it. Our core aeration service is offered to commercial and residential properties, as well as HOAs, in and around Grand Rapids, Holland, and Rockford, MI. Sign up for this service by calling us today at (616) 554-9499.


What does our core aeration process look like?

Cores of soil on grass in Grand Rapids, MI, after core aeration.

Our core aeration process is designed to effectively loosen up the soil to improve your lawn's access to essential resources. When you sign up for this service, we will arrive at your property equipped with our top-of-the-line aerator machine. Our team will use this equipment to remove plugs of soil from your lawn, creating tiny holes in the ground that will act as channels for nutrients, water, and oxygen to pass through and get to the roots of your lawn.

We can do single-pass or double-pass aeration on your lawn depending on what it needs to improve its overall condition. A single-pass is more common, but if the soil is severely compacted, it may need another pass to ensure the best results.

We have been aerating and strengthening lawns since 1994!

When can you schedule our core aeration service?

Your soil can get compacted over the year because of daily traffic and wear and tear. That's why we offer it during the summer and fall months. Our summer aerations are done from June to August, while our fall aerations are performed from September to early November. By doing it at these times, we'll ensure your grass can tolerate the process and more easily recuperate afterward.


You will be notified ahead of our scheduled visit to core aerate your lawn.

Our team will send out a notification a week before we visit your property to core aerate your lawn. This notification will advise you to conduct necessary preparations before we aerate your lawn, including marking underground components and watering your turf. Irrigation heads, as well as dog fences, should be marked prior to our service so our team can avoid them and prevent them from getting damaged. Your lawn should also be watered lightly so the soil is moist enough when we aerate to make the entire process go smoothly and efficiently.
