When should I aerate my lawn?

Spring or fall, when the lawn is actively growing. Fall is often best in the Ottawa Valley, the lawn recovers fast and aeration sets up healthier turf for next year.

How often do I need to aerate?

Once a year for most lawns. High-traffic yards (kids, pets, heavy clay soils) benefit from twice a year.

Should I overseed after aerating?

If your lawn has thin spots, yes, the aeration holes are perfect for seed-to-soil contact. We usually book both on the same visit.
