Mowing and fertilizing aren’t enough to keep your lawn healthy. Aeration is needed too because all lawns experience soil compaction and growing surface thatch. When these get heavy, they suppress grass roots from absorbing enough air, water, and nutrients. As a result, roots become shallow and weak, impacting turf health, color, and vitality. But you can get vital essentials moving and flowing again with our lawn aeration services, offered in and around the Arlington TX area.
Lawn Aeration: How Arlington TX Homeowners Can Tell It’s Time
Lawn Doctor of Arlington-HEB-Grapevine knows there are some telltale signs Texas homeowners can look for that aeration is needed. When your grass is suddenly stunted or wilting, you’re seeing bare or patchy areas, and standing water is becoming an issue, then soil conditions are likely compacted. There are also certain factors that put your lawn at risk for more compaction and thatch build-up. These include when your soil is clay, your lawn experiences a lot of foot and vehicle traffic, or when seasonal factors, such as heavy rains, come into play.
Lawn aeration works by opening up your soil and cutting through thatch, all to restore health and vitality in your lawn in Arlington TX. More specifically, once your lawn is well-aerated, it can:
- Better fight off diseases and pests
- Use water more efficiently
- Take in more nutrients
- Breathe easier and grow deeper roots
Lawn Aeration: What to Expect with Our Approach in Arlington TX
There are many reasons local homeowners across the Arlington TX area consistently choose us for lawn aeration. First, we will assess your lawn and its grass types to ensure we’re aerating at the right time of year. Aerating should be performed prior to peak growth, which depends on whether your lawn is warm- or cool-season. Grass can therefore recover quickly and grow back stronger than before.
In addition, we also use the most effective method – core aeration – to aerate local lawns in the Arlington TX area, leveraging our state-of-the-art Turf Tamer® equipment in the process. This provides for the most thorough and consistent approach. With it, small plugs of soil, grass, and thatch are cut out and removed from your lawn. This effectively reduces excess thatch, opens up compacted conditions, and creates tunnels in the soil where more of what grass roots require can be absorbed, such as including air, water, and nutrients.
You’ll notice a big difference in your lawn in the weeks and months after Lawn Doctor of Arlington-HEB-Grapevine aerates. Not only that, but you can leave the work to our professional team, and go hiking, golfing, fishing, or simply relax and enjoy your day.
