Lawn Seeding

If you notice your yard starting to look a little less dense, our lawn seeding service might be just what it needs. Just like everything else, grass gets older and sometimes will need to be replaced. Many lawns require seeding every year or so to keep them looking beautiful and it could be just what yours needs to look fantastic again. 

Seeding grass is quite a complex process. There is a bunch of preparations to do beforehand. You must get the lawn ready for the seeding process if you want it to be successful. 

The first step is to mow lower than normal. The goal is for the grass to sit right above the soil line. This is something we will gladly take care of for you as well with our mowing services. After the grass has been lowered, it'll be possible for you to loosen the highest layer of soil and remove any debris, this process is known as dethatching. This makes the soil more available so the seeds will be able to germinate better. If dethatching is not as effective as you would like, aerating your lawn could do the trick. Aeration combs your grass while also taking any debris with it. It also breaks up the soil so more water, nutrients, and air can get to the roots of your grass.

Choose your seed: It is essential that you match the seed type to the grass that is already matured in your lawn. To identify your grass type you can look at the climate of your region, the shape of the blades, the texture, or take samples to someone that can help.

Healthier Soil: Treat the bare areas of your lawn with topsoil, this will improve the quality of soil and help the grass to grow. You can even rake sand around in your grass so that it will germinate faster and create thicker roots. After you have done the above mentioned steps, you can spread your grass seeds around evenly in your yard. Most people, including our services if you were to trust us with your seeding needs will use a broadcast spreader, hand spreader, or drop spreader.
