Is it worth aerating a lawn?

• <div><p>Yes, it’s worth aerating a lawn. Even the most diligent mowing, watering, and fertilizing schedule is not enough if the roots are not able to benefit from the care and nutrients you’re giving them. Even a lawn that’s already healthy can benefit from aeration because the more air that circulates around the roots, the stronger and healthier it will grow. </p></div>

Why did my grass suddenly turn yellow?

• <div><p>A lawn that suddenly and quickly turns yellow is typically the result of a dramatic change in the grass's environment. Heavy rainfall can dilute soil nutrients, rapidly yellowing the grass, and <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/tips-sharpening-lawn-mower-blades.htm">dull lawn mower blades</a> can dry out and damage the grass in a short time. Over-fertilizing can yellow a lawn within a matter of days. </p></div>

Will grass fill in bare spots on its own?

• <div><p>Whether or not grass will fill in bare spots itself depends on the <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/how-to-identify-lawn-grass.htm">type of grass you have</a>. For example, grass with rhizomes (e.g., Bermuda grass) and stolons (e.g., Saint Augustine grass) will naturally fill in bald spots as it spreads laterally. However, clump-forming grasses will not spread. </p></div>

Q: Will aerating my lawn help grass grow?

• <div><p>Yes, aerating your lawn will help grass grow. Pulling out soil plugs or applying liquid aeration solution allows more air to circulate around the roots. A well-aerated and hydrated root system is the foundation your lawn needs to grow green and lush. Even if your lawn is healthy, annual aeration will keep it beautiful each season.</p></div>

Q: Is it worth aerating a lawn?

• <div><p>Yes, it&rsquo;s worth aerating a lawn. Even the most diligent mowing, watering, and fertilizing schedule is not enough if the roots are not able to benefit from the care and nutrients you&rsquo;re giving them. Even a lawn that&rsquo;s already healthy can benefit from aeration because the more air that circulates around the roots, the stronger and healthier it will grow. </p></div>

Q: Should I aerate before power seeding?

• <div><p>Power seeding machines do a great job of creating narrow trenches in the soil to plant grass seeds into, but aerating before power seeding can be beneficial for your lawn. By aerating first, more water, oxygen, and carbon dioxide can reach the roots of your germinating grass seeds. Plan to aerate your lawn about once or twice a year, whether you plan to power seed or not.</p></div>

They have been great. I have an area in my back yard where it has stayed wet for a majority or the lawn mowing season. The mowing crew took the time to see that there was a problem and did NOT use the large riding mower in the wet area that would leave big tire tracks in the yard. Instead they...

They were very responsive when I called in a jam. They were able to get the yard clean up completed in a quick and timely manner. Went the extra mile to suggest other areas to work on in Spring. Price was right and the quality of work was great. Very nice as well.
