Lawn Aeration in Grand Junction, CO

Improved air exchange between the soil and atmosphere is as important as it sounds–it allows your grass to breathe. The small holes dug out in the core aeration process reduce soil compaction and allow your grass to grow deeper roots. The influx of airflow and the added space in the soil allow nutrients and water to be more fully absorbed, resulting in a healthier lawn.

Do you ever see those tiny pellets of soil on top of a lawn? That’s core aeration, and it is a sign of well-manicured grass. After the plugs of soil are removed from the lawn, they are left atop the lawn and eventually get reabsorbed, utilizing every bit of nutrients possible. Along with the natural nutrients from the plugs, the aeration process allows for maximum absorption of all the nutrients contained in our fertilizers. Removing tiny plugs of soil also helps prevent water from pooling on your lawn, as the process allows the soil to be less compact and to drain more efficiently.
