Lawn Aeration Services

Imagine a healthier, more beautiful lawn without the need for extra watering or excessive treatment. As part of our landscape healthcare program, our annual lawn aeration promotes a stronger, healthier landscape by essentially helping it to eat, drink and breathe. It even encourages stronger resistance to drought and heat for year-round protection.

Lawn aeration, the most environmentally responsible service, is a non-chemical process that directs oxygen, water and nutrients to the turfโ€™s root zone by removing small soil plugs about the size of your thumb. One of the most important elements of our landscape program, aeration is responsible for the following benefits for both your lawn and the surrounding environment:

– Improved watering efficiency for water conservation
– Reduced nutrient runoff into lakes and streams
– Stronger pest, weed and disease resistance
– Fewer pesticides needed
– Less fertilizer required

Frequently Asked Questions

What is lawn aeration?

Lawn aeration is a non-chemical process that improves your lawnโ€™s health by removing small plugs of soil from the turf. This creates space for oxygen, water, and nutrients to penetrate more deeply into the root zone, resulting in stronger, more resilient grass across your property.

Why is lawn aeration important?

Over time, soil becomes compacted, making it difficult for essential elements to reach the roots. Aeration breaks up that compaction, increases air exchange between the soil and atmosphere, improves nutrient absorption, strengthens root development, and helps break down thatchโ€”all of which contribute to a greener, thicker, and more stress-tolerant lawn.

How does Massey Services perform lawn aeration?

Massey Services uses professional-grade equipment to extract small plugs of soilโ€”each about the size of your thumbโ€”from your lawn. This process allows for improved movement of oxygen, water, and nutrients directly into the turfโ€™s root zone, promoting deeper roots and a more vigorous lawn.

What are the environmental benefits of lawn aeration?

Aeration supports better water efficiency by reducing runoff and increasing soil absorption, helping to conserve water during warm seasons. It also improves nutrient retention, reduces the need for chemical treatments, and enhances your lawnโ€™s natural resistance to weeds, pests, and diseaseโ€”all contributing to a healthier, more eco-friendly landscape.

How often should lawn aeration be performed?

For most lawns, annual aeration is recommended. Regular aeration maintains long-term turf health and allows your lawn to better endure environmental stressors like heat, foot traffic, and dry spells.

When is the best time to aerate my lawn?

While lawn aeration can be done year-round, the ideal time is during your lawnโ€™s peak growing seasonโ€”when the grass is actively growing and can quickly recover. This typically aligns with the spring and fall months, depending on your turf type.

Can I perform lawn aeration myself?

DIY lawn aeration is possible, but itโ€™s often less effective without the right tools and technique. Massey Servicesโ€™ trained lawn care specialists use commercial-grade aerators and know exactly how to approach your propertyโ€™s specific needs, ensuring consistent coverage and optimal results.

How can I schedule a lawn aeration service with Massey Services?

Scheduling is easy. Contact Massey Services for a free lawn inspection. A landscape care specialist will evaluate your lawnโ€™s condition and create a personalized aeration plan that helps promote long-term health, beauty, and resilience.
