Core aeration is the process of mechanically removing small plugs of soil from your lawn. This relieves soil compaction, creates channels for air, water, and nutrients to reach the root zone, and promotes thatch breakdown. It's one of the most beneficial services you can provide for your lawn's health.
Relieves soil compaction, allowing oxygen to reach grass roots more effectively.
Creates channels for water to penetrate deeper into the soil, reducing runoff.
Encourages deeper root growth for more resilient, drought-tolerant lawns.
Over time, your lawn's soil becomes compacted from foot traffic, mowing equipment, and natural settling. Compacted soil prevents essential elements from reaching grass roots, leading to weak, thin, and disease-prone turf.
For cool-season grasses (common in Massachusetts), the best times are:
Early Fall (September-October)
Ideal timing - grass is actively growing
Early Spring (March-April)
Good alternative if fall was missed
Professional, thorough service that maximizes results.
We evaluate your lawn's condition and soil type to determine the best approach.
Professional equipment removes soil plugs in a systematic pattern.
Plugs break down naturally, adding organic matter back to soil.
