Q: Should I reseed my lawn after aerating it?

• <div><p>Reseeding your lawn can help eliminate thin or patchy portions of grass. If you&rsquo;re paying a professional to aerate your lawn, it&rsquo;ll cost you an additional $50 to $80 on average to reseed it in the same trip. Reseeding a lawn yourself can cost between $500 to $1,000, meaning you&rsquo;ll probably save time and money hiring a professional service. </p></div>

Q: How do I break up hard dirt in my yard?

• <div><p>Break up hard dirt in your yard with popular methods such as <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/what-is-core-aeration.htm">core aeration</a> or manual aeration with a spade, mini excavator, or pitchfork. You can also alter your soil to keep it from compacting in the future. Adding compost, groundcover plants, or aeration granules&mdash;preferably made of organic materials&mdash;can also soften your ground and encourage water saturation.</p></div>

Q: How do you prepare your lawn for core aeration?

• <div><p>To prepare your lawn for core aeration, water it the day before you aerate. (Alternatively, you can wait until it rains and aerate the following day.) Aerating after watering or a rainy day will make the process easier since you can penetrate moist soil better than dry soil. You should also flag your sprinklers so that you don&rsquo;t accidentally hit them while aerating. If you have a lot of thatch buildup in your yard, you might need to <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/how-dethatch-your-lawn.htm">dethatch your lawn</a> before aerating as well.</p></div>

Q: How often should I have lawn aeration services done?

• <div><p>If you have a beautifully thriving yard with no bald spots, you can choose to <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/what-is-lawn-aeration.htm">aerate your yard </a>once every two years. Otherwise, having your lawn aerated at least once a year is recommended. And in those circumstances where you have a significant amount of thatch buildup or a thinning and bald yard, it's best to aerate twice a year to maintain a healthy lawn.</p></div>

Q: Are DIY lawn treatments as effective as professional services?

• <div><p>DIY solutions often lack precise formulation and distribution, potentially leading to lawn damage. Professional treatments optimize results with targeted applications.</p></div>
