Core Aeration
Give Your Lawn Room to Breathe and Grow Strong
What is Core Aeration?
Core aeration is the process of removing small plugs of soil from your lawn to relieve compaction, improve air flow, and enhance nutrient absorption. This technique helps roots grow deeper, resulting in a greener, stronger, and more drought-resistant lawn.
Think of it as hitting the “reset” button for your grass giving it the boost it needs to thrive in our Central Texas climate.
Why Aerate in Preserve at Four Points?
The unique soil composition and seasonal changes in Preserve at Four Points mean your lawn might be struggling more than you realize. Here’s why core aeration is especially important in this area:
- Clay-heavy soil tends to compact easily
- Hot, dry summers stress the turf
- Shaded areas can lead to shallow root systems
- Irrigation and rainfall runoff can cause soil to seal up
By aerating, we open up pathways for water, nutrients, and oxygen—exactly what your lawn needs to recover and flourish.
Benefits of Core Aeration
- Promotes thicker, healthier grass
- Reduces water runoff and puddling
- Enhances fertilizer effectiveness
- Breaks up thatch buildup
- Improves root growth
- Helps lawns recover from heat and drought stress
When Should You Aerate?
We recommend aerating once a year, typically in the early spring or fall. These seasons offer ideal conditions for root development without the stress of extreme heat.
Our Aeration Process
At Steiner Lawn Care, we use professional-grade equipment to ensure even coverage and the best results. Here’s how it works:
- Inspect – We assess your lawn’s condition and moisture level.
- Mark – Sprinkler heads and utility lines are clearly marked.
- Aerate – Our machine removes plugs of soil throughout your yard.
- Post-care Tips – We provide guidance to help your lawn recover and thrive.
Ideal Add-On: Overseeding
Pairing aeration with overseeding is the perfect combination. After plugs are removed, seeds have direct contact with the soil, improving germination. If you’re looking to fill in thin or patchy areas, this is the time to act.
