Core Aeration
Natural soil can become compacted, which makes it hard for proper root development. Core Aeration can alleviate this by allowing water, nutrients, oxygen and grass roots to penetrate deeper into the soil. This will reduce the overall maintenance required for your lawn and make it more durable and resistant to disease and drought. For more information, download our PDF!

Ensuring you keep to a proper schedule, and combined with proper watering and mowing practices, will make sure your freshly sodded lawn and landscape will look its best for years to come.
