Aeration & Overseeding
Core Aeration is done in the spring and/or fall. It reduces soil compaction, minimizes the bumps in a lawn and helps control thatch in lawns while allowing water, air, and nutrients to move into the root zone resulting in a strong healthy root base.
Benefits of Aeration
What is Overseeding?
Overseeding is a cost-effective way to rejuvenate your lawn by adding fresh grass seed to your existing turf. This simple process helps fill in bare spots, create a thicker, greener lawn, and improve overall lawn health. By overseeding, you’ll reduce weeds, enhance drought resistance, and boost your lawn’s resilience against pests and diseases. It’s the perfect solution for clients looking to upgrade their landscape without the hassle of re-sodding.
Why does my lawn need overseeding?
Lawns naturally thin over time due to factors like weather, foot traffic, pests, and disease. Continual overseeding is essential for those looking to enhance their lawns density and fill in gaps that are prone to weed growth. Overseeding allows new improved types of turf grass to be introduced to a lawn to resist drought, diseases and damaging lawn insect attacks. New plant growth and subsequent thickening of the lawn will provide you with an aesthetically pleasing appearance.
When is the best time to overseed my lawn?
The best time to overseed your lawn is typically during the late summer to early fall or in the spring. The key months are April and late August through September. This timing takes advantage of the cooler temperatures and more consistent rainfall, which helps new grass establish before summer/winter sets in. Additionally, the soil is still warm enough for seed germination, and the reduced competition from weeds gives the new grass a better chance to thrive.
