What this covers
Lawns that see foot traffic, play or heavy clay soil slowly compact until water runs off and roots stay shallow. Core aeration pulls small plugs of soil out of the lawn, letting air, water and nutrients reach the roots. The plugs break down on the surface on their own.
Overseeding right after aeration gives seed direct contact with soil, which is the best chance for new grass to take. For most cool-season lawns, fall is the usual window. Ask about the seed type for sun and shade, and how the new grass should be watered while it establishes.
Scope
| What is reviewed | Soil compaction, thin or bare areas, shade, grass type and foot traffic |
|---|---|
| Common work | Core aeration, overseeding with seed suited to sun or shade, and watering guidance |
| To confirm before the visit | Timing, seed choice, marking sprinkler heads or buried lines, and aftercare |
| Pricing | Quoted by the business after it has seen the lawn. |
How a request works
