Lawn aeration is something that is easy to overlook when caring for your turf. But if you want to grow healthy and resilient grass in Union County, aeration will play an important role.
At Lawn Doctor of Union County, we often see lawns with patches of thin, brittle, and yellowing grass. In many cases, the lawn has been fertilized properly and frequently watered. The culprit is poorly aerated soil. And that’s where our lawn aeration service can make a big difference.
With lawn aeration from Lawn Doctor of Union County, it’s easy to fix aeration problems on your property. And thanks to core aeration performed using Turf Tamer® technology, you can trust the results delivered by our treatments.
Choosing Lawn Aeration in Union County
Everyone knows that grass needs water and fertilizer to thrive. But a lot of homeowners don’t fully understand the importance of soil aeration.
Proper aeration is what allows air and water to reach your turf’s roots. When soil is well aerated, it’s filled with small pockets and channels that allow it to breathe. When you water your lawn, these pockets and channels allow the water to filter through.
But when soil gets compacted, these pockets and channels disappear. As a result, air and water can no longer pass through the soil. As a result, turf starts to struggle in the areas where soil is compacted.
Lawn aeration is a process that corrects compacted soil by loosening the soil and allowing it to resettle. If your lawn has sections of severely compacted soil, an aeration treatment can fix the problem. If you want to prevent soil compaction in the future, we recommend an aeration treatment every two years.
Core Aeration Services in Union County
There are two basic approaches you can take to lawn aeration.
The first approach is to use small spikes to punch holes in the soil. This method requires less advanced equipment, and it’s a popular option for DIY aeration. Unfortunately, the results aren’t always as effective or long-lasting.
The second approach is something called core aeration. This method involves using special equipment to extract small cylinders of soil throughout your lawn, leading to more consistent and longer-lasting results. That’s why we exclusively offer core aeration services to our clients!
