Powerful Lawn Restoration Through Aeration
Your lawn needs to breathe. Compacted soil prevents essential nutrients, water, and air from reaching grass roots, leading to weak, thin lawns. Studies show that proper aeration can increase nutrient absorption by up to 40%, giving your grass the foundation it needs to thrive in Virginia.
What happens during our aeration and seeding process:
- We remove small soil plugs to break up compaction and reduce thatch buildup
- Our double-pass technique ensures thorough coverage across your entire lawn
- Premium Tall Fescue seed is distributed for maximum soil-to-seed contact
- We provide detailed watering instructions and complimentary touch-up seed
- Free service calls if you experience any issues while following proper watering guidelines
Fall Aeration and Premium Seeding
Late August through October provides the perfect conditions for our double-pass core aeration and premium seeding service in Virginia. We use only Blue Tag Certified Tall Fescue seed that ranks among the highest in NTEP trials, ensuring your lawn develops deep roots before winter arrives.
Why Annual Treatment Matters
Your lawn faces constant stress from foot traffic, weather, and normal use. Annual aeration prevents thatch from building up beyond the recommended half-inch threshold. This regular maintenance creates pathways for water and nutrients while encouraging stronger root development year after year.
We'll contact you days before service to mark sprinkler heads and provide pre-treatment instructions based on current weather conditions. After we complete your service, you'll receive personalized care instructions to maximize your results. Our team is ready to answer any questions you might have about maintaining your newly treated lawn.
