Your Lawn's Breathing Room
A healthy lawn needs to breathe. In Virginia, the clay-heavy soil compacts over time, creating a barrier that blocks water, nutrients, and oxygen from reaching grass roots. Research shows that properly aerated lawns absorb up to 300% more water than compacted lawns.
What happens during our double-pass core aeration and seeding:
- Mechanical removal of small soil plugs to break up thatch and soil compaction
- Two passes in different directions for maximum coverage and effectiveness
- Application of top-quality Tall Fescue seed directly into fresh aeration holes
- Custom watering instructions based on your specific lawn conditions
- Complimentary extra seed for any small touch-up areas
Why Annual Treatment Matters
Your lawn fights a constant battle against foot traffic, weather stress, and thatch buildup. Annual aeration keeps soil from becoming dense and impenetrable. Without this yearly maintenance, thatch—the layer of dead grass between soil and living grass—can exceed the healthy half-inch threshold, blocking water and creating disease-friendly conditions.
We provide detailed care instructions before and after service, including sprinkler head marking and proper watering techniques to ensure your new grass thrives. Our team always stands behind the results with free service calls for any necessary touch-ups when watering guidelines are followed.
