Aeration & Seeding
Give Your Lawn the Boost It Deserves
Over time, soil becomes compacted, and your lawn may start looking thin, patchy, or tired. Lawns also lose 2-3% of their grass each year and need to be filled in. Our aeration and overseeding service is designed to restore your lawn’s health and help it grow lush, thick, and green again.
At Lawn Doctor of Southeast Cincinnati, our aeration and overseeding service is one of the most effective ways to revitalize your lawn. This process begins with core aeration, where we remove small plugs of soil to break up compaction and allow deeper penetration of air, water, and nutrients. Because of our state of the art aerator / seeder we are able to precisely put down the correct amount of seed as we aerate to replenish your yard. We overseed your lawn with high-quality grass seed that is a three blend tall turf fescue, perfect for our soil and weather conditions. We target bare or thinning areas and introduce stronger, more resilient turf varieties.
What are the benefits of Aeration?
Core aeration involves removing small plugs of soil from your lawn to reduce compaction and allow essential nutrients, water, and oxygen to reach the roots more effectively. This creates a healthier growing environment for your grass and improves root development.
Benefits of aeration:
- Loosens compacted soil
- Increases nutrient and water absorption
- Enhances root growth
- Reduces thatch buildup
- Boosts overall lawn resilience
What are the benefits of Overseeding?
Overseeding is the process of spreading new grass seed over your existing lawn. After aeration, the seed has better contact with the soil, leading to improved germination and stronger results.
Benefits of overseeding:
- Fills in bare or thinning areas
- Improves turf density and color
- Introduces disease- and drought-resistant grass varieties (Tall Turf Fescue)
- Helps crowd out weeds including annual grass weeds like Johnson grass
When Should You Aerate and Seed?
The ideal time for aeration and seeding is in the early fall, when soil temperatures are still warm, but cooler air temperatures and rainfall support healthy growth. Spring is also an option, but fall provides the best long-term results.
Why Choose Us?
