Of all of the different steps in any effective lawn care plan, regular aeration is one of the most crucial. The soil in Long Island lawns is susceptible to becoming compacted over time, which can lead to brown spots and disease as well as insect damage in Summer months. Aerating your lawn on your own can be expensive and time-consuming work, which is just one of the reasons why it’s better left to the pros. We utilize our proven lawn aeration services to rejuvenate Long Island, NY lawns and keep them growing through the seasons.
One of the things that sets our aeration services apart is the cutting-edge equipment we use. To maximize the results we’re able to achieve in your yard, we utilize advanced core aeration equipment. Core aerators create precisely-spaced channels in your yard to optimize aeration and provide even, consistent relief from compacted soil. By using our core aerators, we’ll keep your soil healthy so it can support consistent growth in your home’s outdoor spaces.
How Lawn Aeration Keeps Local Lawns Looking Great
There are many benefits that come with regularly aerating your lawn. Here’s a quick overview of just a few of the ways lawn aeration helps your outdoor areas stay green and vibrant through the seasons:
Reduced Brown Spots. When the lawn’s thatch gets too thick, it holds water like a kitchen sponge. And, just like a sponge that is left wet in the sink for extended periods, your lawn will develop brown spots from turf disease, particularly when evening temps are above 70 degrees, like in June, July and August. A damp lawn is also a breeding ground for insects that can permanently damage your lawn.
Improved Fertilization. Ongoing fertilization is crucial to your lawn’s health, but fertilization treatments can be rendered ineffective by compacted soil. With our aeration treatments, we’ll create room in the soil for the nutrients added by fertilization to circulate and nourish your lawn’s plants.
Enhanced Absorption of Water and Sunlight. Compacted soil can take away your lawn’s ability to effectively absorb the water and sunlight it needs to support continuous growth. The channels created by aeration will allow water and sunlight to penetrate deep into the soil and keep your grass healthy.
Stronger Root Systems. The growth of your lawn’s root systems can easily be stifled by compacted soil. With our core aeration equipment, we’ll ease compression in your soil and allow your roots to expand and develop fully.
