Core Aeration

Lawn aeration is recognized as the best way to improve air/gas exchange and water/nutrient intake. Due to soil compaction and other soil conditions, it is difficult for your lawn to thrive without some means of mechanical aeration. In addition to compaction, thatch buildup can be especially damaging to lawns. This buildup will act as a barrier to your soil and prevent water and nutrients from penetrating the soil. With aeration, a machine removes small plugs of soil from the ground. As the plugs break down, they provide your lawn with a valuable top dressing as well as help to degenerate thatch. In addition, the holes left in the ground allow for more nutrients and water to reach the root systems, which in turn strengthens them. A stronger root system will provide you with a thicker, more wear-resistant lawn!

Mechanical Aeration benefits your lawn in six ways:

  • Reduces soil compaction
  • Penetrates heavy thatch
  • Allows more efficient watering and fertilizing
  • Enhances root growth
  • Enriches surface soil
  • Decreases water run-off
