Aeration

What Is Core Aeration?

We use equipment designed specifically for aeration, which consists of a series of hollow coring tines. When these tines are rolled over the lawn, they puncture the soil, removing small soil plugs (cores) and leaving small holes behind.

The cores of soil and thatch pulled up by the machine are left on the lawn because they contain beneficial microorganisms that help break down the rest of the thatch. The holes left when the cores are removed allow air, nutrients and water to reach the soil.
