Lawn Issues? When Was The Last Time You Aerated and Overseeded?

Rejuvenate Your Lawn:

Your lawn takes a beating—between foot traffic, heavy rains, and summer heat, it’s no wonder it starts to look thin, patchy, or just plain tired. The problem? Compacted soil and aging grass that can’t keep up. That’s where aeration and overseeding come in.
✔ Benefits of Aeration & Overseeding:
✅ Strengthens root development for a healthier lawn
✅ Reduces soil compaction, allowing better nutrient absorption
✅ Fills in bare patches and thickens existing turf
✅ Improves drought tolerance and disease resistance
✅ Creates a lush, green lawn that’s the envy of the neighborhood!

How Does it work?

Think of aeration as a reset button for your lawn. We pull small cores of soil out, letting air, water, and nutrients reach deep down to the roots where they’re needed most. This means stronger, healthier grass that stands up to whatever the season throws at it.
Then, we overseed with a mix premium grass seed that is heavy in Turf Type Tall Fescue to thicken things up while also improving disease and drought resistance. Those bare spots? Gone. Weak, thinning grass? Replaced with fresh new growth. The result? A lush, resilient lawn that looks great and feels even better underfoot.

How often do I Aerate and Overseed? 

Here’s the thing—this isn’t a one-and-done fix. If you want a lawn that stays thick, green, and healthy year after year, aeration and overseeding should be done annually or at least every other year. Without it, soil compacts, grass weakens, and weeds take over.

If your lawn isn’t looking its best, don’t just throw down more fertilizer and hope for the best. Give it what it actually needs—room to breathe and fresh seed to fill it in. We’ll take care of the rest.

Humates

So what are humates?
Humates are organic compounds that are a key component of soil and are essential for life on Earth. They are the solid form of humic acid, which is a liquid, and are created over millions of years when plant and animal tissues break down and compress in the earth's soil. Humates are found in all soils, waters, and sediments, and can be mined from the earth as a black, coal-like powder.

Why are Humates Important?
Humates are important for soil and plant health, and can have many benefits, including:
Soil stabilization: Improves soil structure and moderates compaction levels
Nutrient chelation: Affects nutrients like iron, magnesium, copper, and zinc
Soil buffering: Protects soil from high salinity levels
Feed the soil microbes to improve the organic matter content in the soil
pH moderation: Helps regulate soil pH levels
Improve the Cation Exchange Capacity- CEC which is the measure of your soils ability to hold nutrients and release them back to the grass roots
Nitrogen fixation: Helps soil biology by feeding bacteria that convert nitrogen fertilizers into nitrates


How Much Humates do I need?
- Our OLP program includes a maintenance applilcation of humates but we recommend a soil test to identify exactly what issues are going on in your soil & how much humates are needed to correct your soil deficiencies

Moisture Manager

To ensure that your new seeds establish properly in your soil, we use moisture manager products. These products assist your turf roots in maintaining the water they need to flourish, even during drought and water restrictions. Studies have shown that Moisture Managers can reduce watering requirements by up to 50%, which means you'll spend less time and money on lawn watering.

Slice Seeding

Slice seeding is a mechanical seeding method that employs vertical blades to cut small slits in the soil, ranging from 1/4" to 1/2" deep. The machine then deposits seeds into these slits to ensure solid ground contact and germination. This technique is particularly suitable for large-scale lawn renovation projects that begin from the ground up. It's also ideal for properties with shallow irrigation lines or fences that might sustain damage from aeration. With slice seeding, you won't have soil plugs scattered across your lawn, which can be an appealing advantage of this method for lawn maintenance.
