Aeration and Overseeding

Reduce standing water, fill in bare spots, and thicken the lawn all at once! 

Does you lawn suffer from:

Standing Water

See puddles of water in the grass after it rains?

Bare Spots

Are areas of your lawn filled with dead grass, dirt, or weeds?

Compacted Soil

Does your soil feel hard as a brick at all times?

Its Time To Use Our Core Aeration Service

  • Core Aeration

    The core aeration machine will plug tiny holes throughout your lawn to improve soil compaction and reduce standing water.

  • Starter Fertilizer

    We will feed the soil with starter fertilizer to jumpstart the new grass seeds that will be planted.

  • Overseeding

    Your entire lawn will be seeded to encourage new growth in the holes from the aeration, the bare spots, and where the grass had died on the lawn which results in a greener, thicker lawn better equipped to fight off weeds.

Keep thatch under control

Some thatch is good for the lawn. Too much thatch can weaken it. Thatch is the dead matter that rests just above and below the soil.

Aeration reduces thatch, allowing more water to reach the grassroots and ultimately a healthier turf.

Help alleviate standing water

The small holes left from aeration help in areas of the lawn that suffer from standing water after watering or rain.

This water and any nutrients added to the lawn now can penetrate down into the soil and help establish a stronger turf.

Thicken the turf

After the aeration plugs small holes in the soil, the overseeding process drops grass seed in those holes.

In addition, grass seed is also placed throughout the lawn (hence the term overseeding) to fill in further the tiniest of gaps where no grass blades exist. This results in a much denser, thicker lawn once the grass seeds germinate.

Make your lawn resilient

Aeration and overseeding allow more water to reach and become stored in the grassroots, fill bare spots in the soil, create density, and produce new grass shoots.

This makes your lawn resistant to rain droughts, weed takeover, grubs and other insects, and lawn disease.

Enjoy a deep green grass

After the aeration and before the overseeding, starter fertilizer is placed down into the soil. This allows for the new seed to germinate more quickly.

But the real benefit is having deeper greener grass that looks new.
