Revitalize Your Lawn
Aeration is an important landscape maintenance service that offers benefits crucial to the health and appearance of your lawn. “It’s a service the client gets the bill before they see the results” says U.S. Lawns President, Ken Hutchenson. That’s why education is vital and regularly scheduled aeration is a must.
In the springtime commercial properties may not look as good as the property next door and that’s really what customers care about. “They want to be sure their property looks a little better than the shopping center next door” states Hutcheson. Compacted soil and dormant grass need to be revitalized in order to grow lush and green in later spring months.
For optimal lawn results though, it is necessary to have aeration services done to your property yearly unless you want to deal with a thin and patchy lawn. Think about it as getting a yearly tune up for your car. If you want it to run right and look nice there are certain things that must be done regularly in order to make sure you don’t break down or have even worse issues arise later down the road.
Key Benefits of Aeration
Here are just a few of the key benefits from the aeration services that U.S. Lawns offers:

Being able to water your lawn more effectively ensures that it will stay lush and green.This can also help your lawn withstand drought conditions more effectively as the soil structure will be improved significantly.

Aeration helps to break up thatch, promoting its decomposition and helps prevent it from becoming too thick which in turn can have a negative effect on your lawn. Having thick thatch can make your lawn patchy and spongy, an unfortunate eyesore that can easily be avoided by yearly aeration services.
