Our Core Aeration Process
If you want a healthy lawn, core aeration is a must. Typically, the best time to aerate your lawn is in the fall. This process involves using machines to pull soil plugs out of the ground. These plugs act as a natural top dressing for your lawn, reducing thatch by about a 1/2.
Our aeration service includes:
- An inspection of your property
- Removal of existing debris and thatch
- Core aeration of your soil to loosen compacted areas, allowing for improved air exchange
- Professional seeding using a mix of grass species suited for your region
- Watering and overseeding to help the new seeds take root
We understand that every lawn is different, so our team will tailor our services to meet your needs. We are certified by the Professional Lawn Care Association of America.
What is Overseeding?
Overseeding is the process of spreading seed over an existing lawn to improve turf health, density, and color. This practice helps to fill in bare areas, repair damage from pests or diseases, and maintain a thick stand of grass. Overseeding also improves the overall quality of the lawn by introducing new varieties of grasses that are better suited for the climate and soil conditions.
At Grosse Ile Lawn Sprinkler & Fertilizing, we use high-quality grass seed blends to ensure your lawn looks its best. We also offer fertilizer programs to help the new seeds take root and grow stronger.
When Should You Overseed Your Lawn?
Overseeding is best done in the late summer or early fall when soil temperatures are warmer and rainfall is more frequent. Temperatures ranging from 60-80°F (15-26°C) are ideal for seeding. This ensures that the new grass seeds have adequate water to germinate. It s also important to mow your lawn before overseeding. This will help the seeds make direct contact with the soil and increase their chances of germination.
