Core Lawn Aeration

Akron Canton Lawn Care is offering lawn core aeration in Barberton and Norton Ohio. Aeration is an important service available for your lawn. Core aeration is completed with commercial equipment that removes thousands of plugs of soil from your lawn. This allows nutrients, water, air and fertilizer to get to the roots of your lawn. Core aeration will develop new growth pockets for roots and helps in the decomposition of thatch in the turf. If the thatch layer gets over ½ inch thick it starts to damage the lawn. The thatch blocks water and nutrients to get to the grass and essentially starts to suffocate the turf grass. One of the biggest benefits of core aeration is it eliminates soil compaction.

Soil Compaction

When the lawn is compacted fertilizer, water and nutrients runoff the turf instead of soaking in to give you a healthy and beautiful looking lawn. Also it will help drainage issues on your property. It is difficult to get grass to grow well in hard compacted soil. When you have a healthier, lush, dense and green lawn it will be more capable to handle heat stress and drought that you can experience in the summer months.

Aeration Frequency

It is always recommended to do core aeration once a year on your lawn. Greens keepers at golf courses know it is the best thing to do to have a visually appealing and healthy lawn. Golf courses do core aeration multiple times a year because they understand the great benefits it provides. We use top of the line commercial aerating equipment to pull deep cores to provide you a superior result.

Akron Canton Lawn Care also offers overseeding services in Norton & Barberton OH. The perfect time to overseed is when you have just had your lawn aerated. It is a great inexpensive way to reseed your turf to keep it thick, healthy and beautiful year round. Also overseeding will fill in any bare or thin spots you may have in your lawn.
