Core Aeration

  

Core Aeration

Stronger roots. Better growth. Healthier lawn.

Over time, your lawn’s soil becomes compacted—making it harder for water, nutrients, and oxygen to reach the roots. Core aeration solves this by opening up the soil and restoring your lawn’s ability to thrive.


What is Core Aeration?

  • Mechanical process that removes 2–3 inch plugs of soil, thatch, and grass 
  • Creates thousands of small holes across your lawn 
  • Performed using professional aeration equipment 


Key Benefits

  • Reduces soil compaction → roots can grow deeper and stronger 
  • Improves water absorption → less pooling, runoff, and dry spots 
  • Increases nutrient uptake → fertilizer becomes more effective 
  • Boosts oxygen flow to roots → promotes thicker, healthier turf 
  • Breaks down thatch layer → reduces disease and pest risk 
  • Improves drainage → helps prevent flooding and soggy areas 


When Should You Aerate?

  • Spring & Fall are ideal (cool temps + moist soil) 
  • High-traffic or clay-heavy lawns → 1–2 times per year 
  • Lower-traffic lawns → as needed every few years 


Signs Your Lawn Needs Aeration

  • Water sitting or pooling after rain 
  • Hard, compact soil 
  • Thinning or patchy grass 
  • Poor fertilizer results 
  • Heavy foot traffic areas 


Why It Matters

Once soil becomes compacted, it’s very difficult for your lawn to naturally recover. Aeration is one of the fastest and most effective ways to restore proper soil conditions and bring your lawn back to life from the ground up.
