The Secret to Beautiful Turf in PA, NJ and DE

For many years, professional golf course greens keepers have known that the secret to a beautiful, dense turf is to aerate their course two or three times each year. This allows the healthy grassroots to thrive.

While homeowners just need it once a year, aeration and seeding is still a critical part in developing a lush, green lawn.

Key Benefits to Core Aeration & Over-Seeding

  • Fills in bare spots to provide a thick, green lawn
  • Chokes out weeds and crabgrass
  • Loosen and decompacts your soil
  • Increases root development
  • Increases water retention
  • Improves overall plant health

How Does Our Aeration & Seeding Service Work?

Our aeration and overseeding service relieves soil compaction, making it easier for oxygen and nutrients to reach the roots.

Our equipment removes small soil plugs from your lawn, creating channels that help water and vital nutrients flow deeper into the soil. This process supports stronger, thicker, and healthier grass growth.

A quality lawn seeding service creates remarkable benefits for your lawn. It preserves the existing turf while still improving its overall quality. It doesn’t just help you have a better looking lawn. It also enhances your lawn’s ability to fight those dreaded insects, drought and disease by incorporating other turf varieties.

Timing is Everything

The timing of aeration, overseeding and dethatching matters.

It’s recommended that cool season grasses be done while the lawn is still growing from Mid-August to October.

For top tier results, you need to incorporate proper lawn management practices throughout the year such as: sufficient lawn fertilization, watering and mowing at the correct height. Standard practice also recommends soil testing that can determine if lime treatment is a necessary addition to your routine.

 

Aeration Improves Thatch Management

As the aerator removes plugs of soil it also helps break apart the thatch layer of the lawn. Dethatching benefits include:

  • Soil Insulation
  • Improved Soil Moisture
  • Acts as a Cushion
  • Encourages Healthy Microorganism Activity

However, thatch must be properly managed. Too much thatch (over 3/4”) can begin to cause issues for the soil. We address thatch based on the customer’s specific lawn as opposed to a one size fits all method.
