- It’s gotta breathe! Sunshine, regular mowing, watering, fertilizing, and insecticide applications are not enough for a great lawn.
- TYBRETTLEN LAWN CARE enhances turf health and vibrancy via lawn aeration.
- We use specialized equipment to systematically remove thousands of small plugs from the soil and deposit them on the grass surface.
- This gives your lawn a chance to “inhale” rich nutrients and flourish.
- Rule of thumb: No aeration = stagnant lawn growth.
- Lawn Aeration helps achieve a plush carpet of grass.
- Our core removal process allows oxygen & water to reach roots, loosens up soil to promote growth, permits fertilizers to seep downward, and breaks up thatch – a layer of grass stems, roots, clippings & debris that decompose or over-accumulate over time.
- Aeration reduces compacted soil.
- Compacted soil doesn’t allow the grass roots to develop deep into your soil.
- Deep roots increase drought and disease resistance. Compacted soil can also help develop a thatch layer too.
- Aerating your lawn breaks down the thatch layer and allows your grass to breath.
- Lawn density is a huge factor in your lawn fighting off the hot Massachusetts summers.
- The denser your lawn is the better it shades the soil so that it does not dry out too quickly.
Probably the most important benefit of aeration is that it allows oxygen, water, and nutrients to get deep down into your soil where they belong. We highly recommend Lawn Aeration in late August, September, or October.
Overseeding is the most cost-effective strategy for helping a thin and worn lawn recover to the lush green lawn you want. By spreading grass seed over your existing lawn, you can thicken up the thin areas, and your lawn will start to look terrific again. (This is different from reseeding, which is when you start over and plant a completely new lawn.).
Over time, the grass gets old and needs to be replaced. Worn-out lawns invite weeds. Overseeding is a fast, inexpensive way to help bring your lawn back to its lush, green self without tearing everything out and starting over.
The best time to be overseed is right after the aeration process as the seeds get to stick in the holes that the plugs left behind.
