Lawn Aeration & Overseeding

Aeration is a process that mechanically removes plugs of soil and deposits them on the top of the soil surface. As these cores break down, the surrounding soil, now relieved of compaction and oxygenated will fill in the holes. At this time, it is most beneficial to overseed your lawn with the most desirable blends of turf grass. Newer varieties of seed are proven to have higher resistance to disease, greater ability to withstand drought, and in many cases, better appearance than older cultivars.

Low fertility, combined with summer stresses, diseases and compaction dampens the ability of turf grass to naturally 'fill-in' or thicken. These stresses create many bare areas, some very small and some quite large. The overseeding process thickens the lawn by placing new seed, and ultimately new grass plants, into these bare areas.

Aeration and overseeding are just two of the many highly beneficial lawn services Spring-Green provides to help maintain the healthy, thick appearance of your lawn.
