Lawn Aeration
Relieve Thatch Accumulation
Most home lawns are subject to thatch accumulation. Left unmanaged, it impedes water, fertilizer and herbicide effectiveness. Core aeration combines soil with the thatch debris, so soil organisms are better able to breakdown the thatch and reduce its accumulation.



What are the Benefits of Aeration?
Core aeration can help make your lawn healthier and reduce its maintenance requirements through these means:

  • Improved air exchange between the soil and atmosphere
  • Enhanced soil water uptake
  • Improved fertilizer uptake and use
  • Reduced water runoff and puddling
  • Stronger turfgrass roots
  • Reduced soil compaction
  • Enhanced heat and drought stress tolerance
  • Improved resiliency and cushioning
  • Enhanced thatch breakdown

How Often Should Lawns Be Aerated?
Most lawns, benefit from annual aeration. Heavily used lawns, or those growing on heavy clay or subsoils may need more than one areation each year. Again, turf responds best when tine spacing is closer and penetration is deeper.
