Lawn Aeration
Lawn Aeration is the process of taking a 350 pound machine (aerator), running it over the lawn to remove thousands of tiny dirt plugs, and leaving them on the grass to provide a natural top-dressing.
Most lawns suffer from:
Compaction (from traffic, snow, rain)
Thatch (a build-up off un-decomposed grass clippings and debris)
Lack of micro-organism activity within the soil
All of these contribute to poor lawn appearance.
