Lawn aeration is the process of removing small soil plugs to relieve compaction and improve airflow, water absorption, and nutrient uptake. Many lawns have compacted clay type soil making aeration essential for healthy grass growth.
The best time to aerate lawns in Massachusetts is early Fall between mid August and October or in the Spring during April and May. Temperatures during these periods allow cool season grass to recover quickly and develop stronger root systems.
Most residential lawns should be aerated once per year. Lawns with heavy foot traffic, compacted soil, or thinning grass may benefit from annual aeration and overseeding.
Overseeding with cool season grass seed after aerating is recommended as part of a regular lawn care program. Overseeding annually maintains a thicker, healthier lawn that naturally blocks out invasive weeds.
Lawn aeration in Massachusetts typically costs between $20 and $30 per 1,000 square feet with a professional core aeration machine.
