Your lawn will be beautiful and healthy only with proper maintenance. One of the most important things you can do to make it look its best is to aerate and overseed your lawn. R & T Lawn Services, Inc. in Denver, NC, has been Lincoln County’s top lawn care company since 1999. Whether you need aeration service or weed control, professionals will help you create a thriving lawn. 

Fall is a good time to assess whether you should aerate your lawn. Look for overly compacted ground, which prevents air and water from reaching the roots of your grass and stunts its growth. Aeration creates distribution channels for air, water, and necessary nutrients. 

You probably need aeration if your lawn is a high traffic area. If people frequently walk and run on your grass, the soil is likely to develop blockages. Dry grass is another clue you need aeration. If you apply pressure to the dry surface of your lawn and feel a little give, it needs better circulation.

You also may need lawn aeration if your house was built in the past few years. That means your yard recently has seen traffic from construction crews and equipment, causing compaction. Your lawn may have been created with sod, which is part of a layering system that often doesn’t optimize air passage. 

If your lawn matches any of these criteria, it’s smart to have professionals aerate and overseed it. To schedule an appointment, call R & T Lawn Services, Inc. at (704) 589-0713. Visit randtlawntreatments.com, for more information about the services offerred, including mosquito and weed control.
