Overseeding

Overseeding is the perfect renovation method for lawns with thin grass or bare patches.

Overseeding May Be Right If Your Lawn Has Bare Patches or Thin Grass

Overseeding is the process of planting new grass seed on an existing lawn. We use overseeding to renovate lawns that have thin grass, or a lot of bare patches throughout the yard.

We typically use a two step overseeding process because it has shown greater success in growing new seed. Core aeration is the key first step in opening up the ground to relieve compaction, and give new seed a place to grow from. After aeration, the actual overseeding occurs. We broadcast spread grass seed, of an appropriate mix for Ohio, onto the lawn. Seed works its way down into the pockets left from aeration providing a great place to grow seed from.

This is a process that you should expect to take several weeks. Once the new grass seed grows, continuing with a lawn fertilization program and proper watering techniques is important.

Aeration & What It Does For Your Lawn

Core Aeration is an important lawn maintenance task to keep your lawn healthy and green. Aeration helps loosen compacted soil, which can cause thinning grass and even brown patches.
Over time your soil can be compacted by normal use and weekly maintenance. When the soil compacts, it won’t allow water and nutrients to penetrate the soil very deep. Core aeration opens up the soil allowing water and nutrients into the soil at a deeper level. Roots grow thicker, deeper and won’t dry out as quickly. Your grass will be healthier & thicker. Thick grass is the first line of defense to keep weeds out! Aeration will also reduce thatch build-up, and you’ll use less water keeping your lawn green, if you water your lawn.

Our Most Popular Turf Plan – 6 Applications

Most clients in northeast Ohio choose our 6 step fertilization and weed control plan. We offer 6 applications from Spring through Fall to keep your lawn green all season long. We start in Spring with a pre-emergent application to prevent Crabgrass and get your lawn growing after Winter. Summer applications include broadleaf weed control with fertilizer. This program includes a Grub step to prevent this common insect. In the Fall, we apply a winterizer to help grow root structure and prepare your lawn for Winter.

Common add-ons include: Fall Aeration to loosen compacted soil, Perimeter Pest Control & Flea & Tick applications to keep your family and pets safer.
