Professional Lawn Aerator/Aeration Services in the Fishers Area

Every lawn requires aeration in order to breath and thrive year-round. Lawn aeration services and maintenance ensure compacted soil doesn’t hinder the ability for roots to get the oxygen, water, fertilizer and organic matter they need to grow. Also known as core cultivation or aerifying, aeration involves the manual or powered removal of plugs from the topsoil to allow for airflow to improve. Most homeowners forget to perform this vital task each year. We include this as a part of every annual lawn care service program so you will never have to worry about us taking care of everything your grass needs!

Soil Compaction

Soil compaction occurs when forces are exerted on the topsoil that exceed its bearing strength. Excess forces on the soil leads to aggregation and elimination of the natural soil structure. In an inverse relationship, bulk density increases while aeration and drainage ability decrease. The natural pores and channels that help direct everything your grass needs to grow can become damaged and impassable. Whether it be from foot traffic, animal traffic or heavier machines with wheels that cause this gravitational damage, compacted soil acts like a concrete barrier over your turf. Tunneling back into your roots with core aeration or plug aeration helps to reestablish these highways for air, water and fertilizer to reach their destination. When done during the growing seasons (early fall or early spring), healthy grass with strong growth fills in these holes even thicker and stronger than before. Depending on your soil makeup and presence of clay, aeration typically takes place annually. Without proper and timely aeration, compacted conditions may take years for the soil to fully recover, leaving your yard weak and thin.

Lawn Aeration, Dethatching, and Drainage

Soil integrity greatly impacts the ability of your lawn to mitigate large amounts of rainfall the Central Indiana rainy seasons. Water must be able to move through the soil and dissipate without obstruction. A healthy Fishers turf has the ability to drain water in a matter of a few hours. If you see water pooling in certain areas after a heavy storm, the soil is likely compacted and would require aeration. In addition, a process known as dethatching helps remove any aggregate material that accumulates on the surface of soil and prevents water from draining properly. Thatch is extremely common in Fishers and is often the reason you aren't seeing the growth and vibrancy you want it your yard. Removing this build up can be a critical part to routine maintenance that should not be avoided. Using specialized equipment, thatch can be taken out of the equation to keep your yard breathing clean. We not only identify and diagnose your current grass problems, we provide the solutions. If you have pooled water after periods of rainfall, give us a call and we can figure out why!
