Aerating and overseeding your lawn are two of the most beneficial practices for maintaining a thick, healthy, and resilient turf.

Over time, soil becomes compacted due to foot traffic, weather conditions, and regular lawn use, making it difficult for air, water, and essential nutrients to reach the grassroots.

Aeration helps alleviate this compaction by creating small holes in the soil, allowing deeper root growth and improving the overall structure of the lawn. This process enhances water absorption, reduces thatch buildup, and encourages stronger, healthier grass that can better withstand drought, disease, and heavy use.

Overseeding, when done after aeration, introduces new grass seed into the lawn, filling in thin or bare areas and increasing the density of the turf. This not only enhances the lawn’s appearance but also helps it compete against weeds by crowding them out before they have a chance to establish. Newer grass varieties are often more resistant to disease, pests, and environmental stress, making overseeding an excellent way to improve the overall health and longevity of your lawn. When combined, aeration and overseeding work together to rejuvenate tired lawns, promoting lush, green growth that is more durable, vibrant, and easier to maintain in the long run. Whether you want a thicker lawn, better resistance to harsh weather, or improved soil health, aeration and overseeding are essential steps in keeping your yard looking its best year after year.
