It’s that time of year again – your lawn is begging for some aerating attention!

Before you panic, take a deep breath, step back, and repeat: You aren’t falling behind on property maintenance. There is still plenty of time for aerating. But it needs to be done before you dive into a re-seeding project.

What is aeration?

When you aerate your lawn, you puncture the soil with holes to allow the presence of water, air, and other vital nutrients. This allows these three elements to penetrate the grass – and the result is stronger, brighter, and more beautiful grass.

What do I need to do before aeration?

Make a phone call – we’ll take care of the rest!

But really, Doctor Sprinkler is here to meet all your property’s needs before you kick off aerating and reseeding projects. This involves a few things. We:

• Tune-up your sprinkler system to ensure it’s running at maximum performance. We offer a professional sprinkler service plan that will help your system work efficiently and effectively.
• If necessary, implement repairs to protect your system for the long run.
• Flag heads and valve boxes to prevent damage to the system. We will always do this for your property while we’re onsite – just ask!

And while you’re planning out your home improvement calendar…

Remember that autumn is the best time of the year to kick off re-seeding projects. So if you are planning any projects – think tree removal or drainage work – you’ll want to check that off the list as soon as possible to ensure that your reseeding project can progress with interruption.

And the most important thing: Our team is here to help! Call Doctor Sprinkler today to map out a sprinkler maintenance system that will protect you, your property, and your curb appeal this year.
