Lawn Aeration

Akron Canton Lawn Care is preforming core aeration services in Springfield Township & Mogadore Ohio.
The equipment we use pulls plugs from your soil to eliminate soil compaction. Where some spike aeration equipment only pokes holes in the soil to create further compaction. Lawn aeration that removes compaction from the soil allows air, water, nutrients, and fertilizer to reach the roots in your lawn.

Thatch is natural and when it is kept at an acceptable level, can be extremely beneficial to your lawn. An acceptable amount of thatch is a normal part of a healthy and happy lawn. When thatch collects over ½ inch thick it is a problem. Thick thatch promotes insects and breeds disease always in a lawn.

Core Aerating speeds up the process of thatch decomposition dramatically, and keeps thatch at an acceptable level. With regular lawn aeration, thatch can be kept at bay and not become a problem for your lawn. Most soils become hard and compact over time. The compacted soil particles do not have the area between them for water, air and roots.

Core lawn aeration lets the soil expand, and the space between soil particles is dramatically improved. Lawn roots, water and air can penetrate deeper in more open soils.

Core aeration in Mogadore & Springfield Township OH works with or without seed to improve your lawn. Golf courses core aerate many times every year with and without seed.
