How aeration works

Aeration involves perforating the soil with small holes to allow air, water, and nutrients to penetrate the grass roots more effectively. Our team uses core aerators, which remove small plugs of soil from the ground. This reduces soil compaction and helps your lawn absorb essential resources, promoting healthier, stronger grass. For larger properties, we use mechanical aerators designed to cover extensive areas efficiently.


The process typically takes 1 to 2 hours, depending on the size of your lawn and the level of compaction. After aeration, we recommend overseeding to fill in bare spots and encourage new growth, ensuring a thicker, more resilient lawn.

  • When should you aerate and seed your lawn in Virginia?

    The best time for aeration and seeding is in spring and fall when temperatures are mild. These seasons support root growth and help new grass establish quickly.


  • How often should I schedule lawn aeration services?

    Most lawns benefit from aeration once a year, but heavily compacted or high-traffic lawns may require aeration twice annually for best results.


  • How long does lawn aeration and seeding take?

    Most residential aeration jobs take 1–2 hours, depending on lawn size and soil compaction. Larger properties may require more time, but we work efficiently.

    We use core aerators that remove plugs of soil to reduce compaction. For larger properties, we use mechanical aerators designed for efficient coverage.


  • Should I fertilize or seed first after aeration?

    It’s best to seed immediately after aeration so grass seed can settle into the soil holes. Fertilizer can then be applied to boost early growth.


  • Can you aerate after seeding a lawn?

    No, aerating after seeding may disrupt new seedlings. Always aerate first, then overseed, to give fresh grass the best chance to establish.


  • How soon will I see results after aeration and seeding?

    You’ll notice new grass growth within 2–3 weeks, depending on weather and watering. Full results typically appear after one full growing season.
