What is Aeration?

Aeration is a process that loosens the soil under your grass using a machine designed to disturb but not damage the soil. Over time your soil becomes compacted from rain and use leaving your grass’ roots without proper aeration, drainage, and water flow. In addition to better water flow and drainage, aeration also allows for fertilizer to be more effective. By having your grass aerated you allow the roots to breathe while also giving them better water flow, resulting in a healthier looking, fuller lawn.

What is Overseeding?

Overseeding is a process where new grass types are introduced to your lawn. After your lawn has been aerated new and different seed is sown to help your grass grow thicker and healthier. Overseeding also helps prevent disease or insect problems with your grass, by introducing new types of grass alongside your current grass. In addition overseeding will leave you with a thick healthy looking lawn that is less likely to grow weeds because the grass is thick enough to choke weeds out.

Why Should I Have my Lawn Aerated and Overseeded?
