What Is Lawn Aeration?

Aeration involves perforating the soil with small holes, allowing air, water, and nutrients to penetrate deep into the root system.

Over time, soil can become compacted due to foot traffic, weather, or natural settling. Compacted soil restricts a lawn's ability to grow thick and strong by limiting root expansion and preventing essential nutrient absorption.

Benefits of Aeration:

  • Improves soil structure and reduces compaction.
  • Promotes deeper, stronger root growth.
  • Enhances water and nutrient uptake for a lush, green lawn.

What Is Dethatching?

Thatch is a dense layer of organic material, including dead grass, roots, and stems, that accumulates between the soil and the grass blades. While a small amount of thatch can be beneficial, excess buildup can block essential nutrients, water, and sunlight from reaching your lawn.

Dethatching removes this barrier, helping your lawn breathe and flourish.

Benefits of Dethatching:

  • Prevents lawn disease and pest infestations caused by excess thatch.
  • Encourages healthy, consistent grass growth.
  • Improves overall lawn appearance and longevity.
