As the season’s change, so does the look of your lawn. It's not just the changing seasons that can take their toll on your lawn — heavy foot traffic on your lawn can lead to soil compaction. The more people walk on the lawn, the more compacted the soil becomes, which can lead to turf thinning and make it difficult for plants and grass to grow. Fortunately, lawn aeration can help!
Aeration is beneficial for lawns that undergo a lot of foot traffic. Core aeration is an essential preventative maintenance practice for thatch control and lawn growth. Regular core aeration reduces soil compaction and improves air movement into soils, which increases the microbial activity and breakdown of thatch.
The Grounds Guys provide commercial lawn aeration service to keep your lawn looking healthy.

When to Aerate Lawn
The type of grass in your lawn determines the best time to aerate. It's also a good idea to aerate when the grass is active and growing. In general, spring and fall are the best times to aerate because of the increased soil moisture and better tolerance to the practice of aeration.
How Frequently Should I Aerate?
We recommend that commercial property owners aerate lawns once or twice a year, depending on the soil, grass type, and amount of foot traffic on your lawn . For instance, if foot traffic on your lawn is generally heavy, you should aerate twice a year. If the lawn on your commercial property is well-established and has minimal foot traffic, aerating once a year should suffice. Commercial lawn aeration should be a regular part of your Fall or Spring cleanup.
