WHY AERATE
Help water, air, and nutrients reach the roots.
Heavy foot traffic, dry conditions, and everyday use can gradually compact the soil beneath a lawn. Core aeration removes small plugs of soil, helping reduce compaction and creating better access for water, oxygen, seed, and nutrients.
Improves access
Openings can improve water and nutrient access around the root zone.
Supports roots
Better soil access can support stronger root development.
Helps seed contact
Aeration creates better seed-to-soil contact for overseeding.

SEASONAL TIMING
When should a lawn be aerated?
Aeration is commonly performed during active growing periods when the lawn has time to recover. In Lethbridge, spring and early fall can both be useful service windows depending on grass condition, soil moisture, weather, and the treatments being applied.
Lawns with heavy traffic, compacted soil, pooling water, or thin growth may benefit most from aeration.

COMMON QUESTIONS
What homeowners ask us.
What does core aeration do?
Core aeration removes small plugs of soil from the lawn. This helps reduce compaction and improves access to air, water, and nutrients around the root zone.
Will the soil plugs be removed?
The plugs are normally left on the lawn, where they gradually break down and return organic material to the soil.
Should I water before aeration?
If the ground is dry, watering approximately 12–24 hours beforehand can help the aerator penetrate the soil. The lawn should be moist, not saturated.
Can aeration be combined with overseeding and fertilizer?
Yes. Aeration creates openings that can improve seed-to-soil contact, making it a useful time to overseed and fertilize.
Do I need to mark sprinkler heads?
Yes. Clearly mark sprinkler heads, shallow cables, invisible fencing, irrigation parts, and any other hidden obstacles before service.
How much does lawn aeration cost in Lethbridge?
Core aeration starts at $129. Final pricing depends on lawn size, access, condition, and the area being treated. Complete aeration, overseeding, and fertilization packages start at $199.
