Lawn aeration and overseeding

Core aeration opens compacted soil, and overseeding fills in thin spots so the lawn thickens from the ground up.

What is included

  • Core aeration across the full lawn
  • Overseeding with seed suited to Minnesota lawns
  • Scheduled for the right window in early fall or spring
  • Watering guidance after the job
  • Easy to pair with your mowing plan

Compacted soil keeps roots shallow and thirsty. Aerating opens the soil, and seed dropped into those openings gets good contact with the ground, which is why the two work best together.

Common questions about aeration and overseeding

When should I aerate and overseed in Minnesota?

Early fall, from late August through September, is the best window for cool-season grass. Spring works too, once the soil is no longer soggy.

How long until new grass fills in?

New seed usually sprouts within a few weeks and keeps thickening through the season, depending on weather and watering.
