Caring for your lawn
If you have ever cared for your own lawn, you know it can take up a considerable amount of time and energy. There are many factors that contribute to healthy grass. These include proper seeding, watering, fertilizing, mowing and aerating. Timing and equipment matter too. Partnering with a local team you can trust is a great way to earn back your time and ensure your living investment is maintained to the highest standard.
Why do you aerate your lawn?
Outdoor spaces are meant to be used and enjoyed. Over time, foot traffic, weather and outdoor projects can compact your soil, making it hard for grass to get the air and nutrients it needs to grow.
Why do you aerate your lawn? Aeration breaks up compacted soil, allowing air, water and nutrients to reach the roots to promote new growth. Aeration is essential to keeping your lawn healthy and full.
If you notice your grass isn’t growing as lush and green as it once did, or that there are areas in your yard that aren’t draining properly after rainfall, it may be time to aerate. For grass in cooler climates, fall is a great time to schedule an aeration service.
Aeration as part of fall cleanup
Why do you aerate your lawn in the fall? As leaves fall and get wet, they create a dense blanket that can suffocate your lawn’s surface. The weight of wet leaves compacts the soil and creates stressful conditions for growth. Cool season grass grows well with proper care and promoting growth in the fall will encourage a strong comeback in the spring.
