What Is Core Aeration?

Lawn Aeration is one of the most important services that will improve airflow and create a healthy lawn. Aerating is the process of removing small plugs of soil and thatch from your lawn to encourage new root growth. Lawn aeration allows more oxygen and nutrients to reach the roots, helps old grasses decompose faster, improves root structure and increases your lawns resistance to drought. The new growth will be much healthier. This process is known as core aeration within the lawn care industry.

The cores are simply left on the lawn to remain and decompose back into the soil. This will occur in about 2 to 3 weeks time. The decomposition process can be speed up by mowing your lawn more frequently once the cores have dried out.  The mowing process will quickly break up the cores to reintroduce it back into your lawn.

Core Aeration is an essential service for a healthy lawn that can be added to your seasonal packages.
