What Is Lawn Aeration?

The aftermath of core aeration looks messy, with plugs of grass and dirt all over the lawn. However, this is just temporary and an easy fix.

Lawn aeration revitalizes your lawn by improving the flow of air, water, and nutrients to its roots. This is achieved by creating aeration plugs, which are small holes cored into the soil, using specialized equipment. These aeration plugs reduce soil compaction, allowing your grass to “breathe” and absorb the essential elements it needs to thrive.

Workers use specialized lawn aeration machines, which pull out a small plug of the grass and soil below. Most machines are designed to remove plugs between ½ and ¾ of an inch in diameter. When combined with proper lawn care, lawn aerator services are especially beneficial for lawns that endure heavy foot traffic or have clay-rich soil, which can become densely packed over time.

Benefits Of Our Lawn Aerator Service

Core aeration offers a wide range of benefits that transform the health and appearance of your lawn. Relieving soil compaction and improving root access to essential nutrients promotes lush, vibrant grass.

Here’s what you can expect:

• Stronger Root Systems: Aeration allows roots to grow deeper into the soil, improving their ability to anchor the grass and access vital nutrients. A stronger root system helps your lawn better withstand environmental stressors like drought or heavy foot traffic.
• Improved Water Absorption: By creating pathways in the soil, aeration ensures water seeps deeply into the root zone instead of pooling on the surface. This keeps your lawn hydrated and reduces the risk of runoff or water waste.
• Enhanced Fertilizer Efficiency: Aeration allows fertilizers to penetrate directly into the root zone, where they can be most effective. This ensures you benefit from every treatment, fostering robust grass growth.
• Reduced Thatch Build-Up: Aeration breaks up thatch, a layer of dead grass and roots that can suffocate your lawn. Encouraging microbial activity helps aeration naturally decompose thatch, keeping your grass healthy.
• Thicker, Greener Lawn: With better access to air, water, and nutrients, your grass grows fuller and fills in patchy areas. Over time, this creates a dense, vibrant lawn that enhances the overall beauty of your yard, especially when combined with other lawn care practices like overseeding.

Regular aeration makes your lawn healthier, more attractive, and easier to maintain, making it the foundation of a stunning landscape.

When Should You Schedule Lawn Aeration Services?

The best time to aerate your lawn depends on the type of grass and the local climate. In New England, the best time to aerate is from the end of summer into the fall season, though cool- and warm-season grasses have different ideal times for aeration.

Your lawn might need more frequent lawn aerator services if your lawn sees heavy foot traffic, has poor drainage, or feels spongy due to thatch. A general rule is to aerate once a year, but compacted soils may benefit from twice-yearly treatments. Timing your aeration right ensures your lawn has the best chance to recover and thrive.
