Lawn Aeration
Professional Aeration Services for Des Moines
Have you fertilized and treated your lawn but are not getting the results you hoped for? If you have inspected your lawn for insects, worms, disease, watering issues, and are still not seeing the desired results, you should consider lawn aeration. Aeration is a process that involves running a machine or unit with hollow spikes across your lawn. The machine removes plugs of dirt approximately thumb size, and 3-4 inches in length.
This process perforates the soil allowing air, water and nutrients to access the grass roots, and alleviates soil compaction. When the roots are exposed to more water and nutrients, they will begin to grow and produce a thicker, stronger, better looking lawn.
Lawn Aerating Pros for your Des Moines Property:
- Increased oxygen in the soil

Lawn Aerating Cons for your Des Moines Property:
- Cost to aerate
