Core Aeration and Lawn Health

A process that improves lawn health by creating small holes in the soil, allowing air, water, and nutrients to reach the roots.

Special equipment used for core aeration, featuring hollow tines that puncture the soil and remove small plugs, called cores.

Small plugs of soil and thatch removed during aeration, containing beneficial microorganisms that help decompose thatch in the lawn.

The small holes left in the soil after core aeration, allowing air, water, and nutrients to penetrate the soil more easily.

A technique that involves spreading grass seed over the lawn, often in conjunction with core aeration, to encourage thicker and healthier lawn growth.

The process of removing small plugs of soil and thatch from your lawn to improve drainage, reduce soil compaction, and enhance root growth.

Aerating your lawn helps water, air, and nutrients reach the roots, which strengthens the grass and improves its health.

A thin layer of organic debris (dead grass, leaves, and other plant material) that builds up on the lawn's surface.

When the thatch layer becomes too thick, it prevents water and nutrients from reaching the grass roots, leading to lawn problems.

Compacted soil makes it difficult for water, air, and nutrients to reach the roots.

Aerating your lawn reduces compaction by creating small holes in the soil, allowing air, water, and nutrients to penetrate more easily.

Aerating your lawn helps improve drainage by allowing excess water to escape, reducing the risk of waterlogging.

Aerating your lawn every year is important to maintain a healthy lawn.
