How Much Does it Cost to Aerate a Lawn in Lakewood?

Lawn aeration Lakewood is the process of removing some plugs and puncturing a lawn to create holes that are important to loosen the soil and allow air and water to penetrate the roots of plants and grasses. This process can help keep your lawn healthy and green. It removes the stress on your lawn and provides more room for nutrients to get into the roots. Lakewood lawn aeration can ensure that the soil in your yard is not compacted. Compacted soil prevents air and water from circulating, hindering this way the equal distribution of natural nutrients on your lawn. Lawn aeration Lakewood is usually done during fall or early spring which are considered to be the growth periods of plants and grasses. Lawn aeration can be done using a gardening fork and puncturing holes in your lawn. However, lawn aeration can be a time-consuming task that requires a lot of patience and care. If you do not have enough time to spare, you can hire professionals to do it for you. Professional lawn services use special equipment pieces like core aerators and spike aerators. These tools are typically used based on the size of a homeowner’s yard.
