The Importance of Aeration

The Importance of Aeration

Core aeration is essential for maintaining a healthy, thriving lawn. Over time, soil becomes compacted from everyday activities like watering, walking, playing, and mowing. Winter conditions—especially snow sitting on the grass for long periods—also contribute to this compaction.

Aeration works by loosening the soil, allowing your lawn to breathe and grow more effectively.

Benefits of Aeration:

  • Promotes looser soil for stronger root growth
  • Improves air, water, and nutrient movement to the roots
  • Helps break up heavy thatch layers
  • Enhances overall lawn health and resilience

We recommend aeration annually, either in the early spring or early fall
