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>

Can you just throw grass seed on an existing lawn?

• <div><p>Throwing grass seed on existing lawn isn’t likely to germinate, grow roots, or become healthy grass. You need to prep the soil, <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/fertilizing-101-yard-and-garden.htm">spread fertilizer</a> with your seed, and sow the seed into the soil. Water the seed every day for two weeks to ensure it germinates and grows roots. Be sure to stay off the area and wait to mow until it reaches optimal height.</p></div>

Will aeration level your lawn?

• <div><p><a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/aeration-to-level-lawn.htm">Aeration can level your lawn</a> if the issue is minor soil compaction, so it can help smooth things out if your yard is bumpy from foot traffic or vehicle traffic. However, it won’t slope your yard. If you have small areas where water seems to pool after precipitation, aeration could help, but larger issues with improperly sloped lawns and problems leading to foundation leaks or structural damage will require more comprehensive solutions.</p></div>

What does moss in a lawn indicate?

• <div><p>Moss growing in a lawn is a sign of poor soil that makes it hard for grass and plants to grow. Moss thrives in these conditions and spreads easily, so it can quickly take over your yard if it’s lacking in nutrients, too wet, or has an excessive amount of shade. Moss in the lawn isn’t always a bad thing, but it can prevent turfgrass from forming deep roots.</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>

Excellent job overall. We will be using them for routine lawn service. We live in the country and have an odd lot to mow with lots of trees. They did an excellent job and we have more usable space among the trees then we ever have. Love being outside now.
