Over time, foot traffic, heavy rains, and natural settling compact your soil — cutting off the air, water, and nutrients your grass roots desperately need. Core aeration mechanically removes small plugs of soil, creating channels for oxygen, moisture, and fertilizer to penetrate deep. It is one of the single most effective things you can do for your lawn.

- Core aeration using professional-grade equipment
- Plugs left on surface to break down naturally (feeding your lawn)
