AERATION
Lawn aeration is key to maintaining a healthy, lush, and green New England lawn. If your lawn isn’t aerated regularly, it can cause your grass to become weak, thin, and brown easily when under stress.
Aeration also counteracts soil compaction, where dirt particles are pressed together so tightly that they lost the ability to hold water, get adequate oxygen, or receive the nutrients your lawn needs to thrive.
Our core aeration service is a mechanical procedure that removes 2-4 inch plugs of soil from the turf. We recommend a lawn aeration service in the fall to ensure your lawn is ready for the next year’s growing season. We offer aeration services in Southern Maine, the New Hampshire Seacoast, Boston's North Shore and Cape Cod.
OVERSEEDING
Our overseeding service utilizes some of the best grass seed for overseeding in the Northeast, a custom blend of desirable varieties formulated to create a green and healthy New England lawn. We overseed your lawn after aeration to provide maximum soil-to-seed contact.
Our seed varieties are hand-picked to provide an optimal level of sun tolerance, shade tolerance, disease resistance, drought resistance, establishment time, and vibrant green color. Plus, to give it the best chance at quick and complete germination, we pre-treat our grass seed with a special blend of nutrients and bio-boosters.
We recommend all lawn seeding be done in the fall to capitalize on the best establishment period for grass in New England. Our seeding services are offered across New England in Southern Maine, the New Hampshire Seacoast, Boston's North Shore and Cape Cod.
SLICE SEEDING
If you are looking to seed in the spring, need to repair damaged, thin, or bare areas in your lawn, or want to kick start a brand new lawn, slice seeding is your best bet. Slice seeding is a mechanical procedure that cuts into the soil and drops grass seed into the grooves. This method allows for optimal seed-to-soil contact, which promotes the most complete germination possible. When performing slice seeding services, we pass over each area two times in a criss-cross pattern to ensure your lawn gets the right amount of seed to fill in those unsightly bare areas. Please note, slice seeding is only possible on level turf, though, so it can’t be performed on every lawn.
