How does core aeration benefit the lawn?
Core aeration will reduce coil compaction and enhance thatch breakdown, thus improving soil water uptake and decreasing water runoff and puddling. Core aeration allows air, water and fertilizer to better reach the roots. This stimulates root growth to create healthier, stronger turf grass (right). How often is core aeration needed? It is recommended that core aeration be done at least once per season. Some lawns may need to be aerated more than once a season, depending on lawn conditions. When is the best time for aeration? Spring or fall is the best time for aeration. April in the spring and September in the fall are the best months to plan for aeration. Warm days and cool nights along with natural moisture provide ideal conditions for aeration. Please call or fill in the form on the front page for an estimate.
