Lawn Care Tips from the Pros

Early Spring

This is the best time to get at it!!!  Prep work is required before you drop more money on fertilizer and seed.  Make sure to rake any matted down areas and  thatch buildup.  If possible, aeration and de-thatching by a reputable company will do wonders.  

Early Spring

Core aeration will help settle down lumps in your yard as well as open up the soil to be more accepting of water and nutrients.

De-Thatching will help expose the soil and grass roots for better penetration of water and nutrients.  Too much thatch layer can choke out a healthy lawn making it look thin and sick.
