Lawn aeration is a process of creating small holes in the soil to allow air, water, and nutrients to penetrate deeper into the root system of the grass. These holes help to break up compacted soil and allow roots to grow more freely, leading to a thicker and healthier lawn.

Performed in the Fall, aeration is especially important for lawns that receive heavy foot traffic or have soil that is clay-based and prone to compaction. Regular aeration service can help prevent the build-up of thatch, a layer of dead grass and other organic matter that can prevent water and nutrients from reaching the roots.

The frequency of aeration will depend on the type of soil and the level of activity on the lawn. For most lawns, aeration should be performed once a year. Aeration is an important part of a comprehensive lawn care program that includes proper watering, mowing, and fertilization, and it can help to keep your lawn looking its best for years to come.
