Lawn Enhancement

How does a lawn enhancement work?

Through dethatching, aerating, and overseeding, your lawn can be transformed from unhealthy and yellow to a yard full of lucious green grass in less than 6 weeks.

Step 1: Dethatching

  • Thatch is a barrier of dead grass that limits grasses accessibility to water and natural minerals. 

  • Dethatching rakes out the layer of ‘thatch’ built up from years of clippings falling back into your lawn

  • The loose clippings are collected.

  • Dethatching removes the dying and yellowish appearance of your lawn.

Step 2: Aerating

  • Foot traffic and lawn mowers are the leading reasons for soil compaction in your yard. This leads to patchy grass, low areas that collect water, and overall declined grass health.

  • Core aeration fixes this issue by removing 3 inch cores from your lawn.

  • This allows the compacted dirt to be opened up so that air, water, natural supplements, and the newly laid seed can settle in. 

Step 3: Overseeding

  • A certain type of seed, based on  your current grass type, is spread on your lawn

  • This seed will settle in and grow new healthy green grass. 

  • It will fall into the newly formed aeration holes and the surrounding areas. 

  • New grass will start to sprout within 3-4 weeks.

Step 4: Enjoy!

  • The new green, thick, and healthy grass will be set in and growing 6-8 weeks after the service.

Maintenance:

  • Maintenance is necessary to sustain the condition of your yard. Once the first service is completed, an annual aeration is highly encouraged.

Scheduling:

  • Lawns in the Lehigh valley have cool-season grass. Because of this, new seed should be planted when the weather is warm enough for grass to grow but not hit enough to burn it out

  • Lawn renovations will take place through the month of May.

  • Schedule now or anytime before March 15 for a 5% discount on your service.
