Lawn Aeration Services

What Is Aeration?
For many years, professional golf course greens keepers have known that the secret of a beautiful, dense turf is to aerate their courses two or three times each year, allowing the healthy grassroots to thrive. Now your lawn, too, can enjoy the benefits of professional aeration.

Practically speaking, aeration is the process of mechanically removing small plugs of thatch and soil from the lawn to improve natural soil aeration. It is commonly called core aeration in the lawn service industry. Power raking on the other hand that other companies provide is only cosmetic. The tines rake the surface, but rarely ever get deep enough into the thatch layer to do any good.

Aeration Benefits:
Core aeration can help make your lawn healthier and reduce its maintenance requirements through these means:

  • Enhanched thatch breakdown
  • Improved fertilizer uptake and use
  • Improved air exchange between the soil and atmosphere
  • Enhanced soil water uptake
  • Improved fertilizer uptake and use
  • Increases water retention, lowers overall water bills
  • Enhanced heat and drought stress tolerance
  • Stronger turf grass roots
  • Reduced soil compaction
  • Improved resiliency and cushioning
3 weeks after core aeration. New roots are growing deeper, enhancing summer drought resistance.

Lawn Over Seeding
After we aerate your lawn in the fall, we can over-seed your lawn using our athletic seed blend. This high quality seed blend gives you with a thicker, lush lawn. Tough enough for the local football teams, children, pets and the local mailman.

Great lawns begin with Royal Gardens.
