WHY AERATE MY LAWN?​

Lawn aeration service is important and a vital service to include in your lawn maintenance program if you wish to maintain a beautiful healthy lawn.  Health and beauty are root deep.  Over time, the soil beneath your lawn gets compacted, which impedes root growth.  For a beautiful, healthy lawn you need to get air, water and nutrients down through thatch and soil and into the root zone. 
​Aeration Service makes this possible.

• ​Aeration allows water, air, fertilizers and weed controls to penetrate all the way down to the root zone.  This allows the roots to grow deeper, promoting a healthier and thicker lawn.
• ​Greatly reduces thatch build-up.
• Reduces Soil Compaction.
• ​Creates an optimal environment for seeding.

WHEN AND HOW OFTEN SHOULD I AERATE?
​Most lawns benefit from annual aeration.  Heavily used lawns, or those growing on heavy clay may need to be aerated more frequently.  If seeding, the best time for our Long Island, NY area is in early fall when lawns are not stressed.

WHAT WILL I SEE AFTER THE AERATION SERVICE?
​Your lawn will be covered in lawn plugs.  Do not disturb them, they will naturally break down and disappear in the lawn over time.  

​In some cases if you have a heavy thatch build-up, you might want to consider de-thatching the lawn before the aeration service for optimal results. 

We can provide aeration service and/or lawn de-thatching as part of your lawn care program or as an individual service.
