Aerating Services in Seattle

Aerating your lawn is a crucial step in maintaining a healthy, vibrant yard, especially in Seattle’s unique climate. Lawn aeration involves perforating the soil with holes to allow air, water, and nutrients to penetrate deep into the roots. This process helps alleviate soil compaction, promotes root growth, and improves overall lawn health. If you’ve noticed that your lawn isn’t as lush as it used to be, or if your grass struggles to grow, aeration might be the answer.


Our Approach

At Neat & Tidy, we believe in a straightforward, effective approach to lawn care that prioritizes your yard’s health and your peace of mind. Here’s how we do it:

  • Assessment: We start with a thorough assessment of your lawn’s current condition. Understanding the specific needs of your yard allows us to tailor our aeration services effectively.
  • Aeration Technique: We use a core aerator that removes small plugs of soil, creating openings that benefit your lawn. This technique is more effective than spike aeration, which can further compact the soil.
  • Follow-Up Care: After aeration, we provide guidance on watering and fertilization to maximize the benefits of the service.
  • Ongoing Maintenance: We recommend a regular maintenance schedule to keep your lawn in top shape, ensuring it remains healthy and vibrant year-round.

We’re a low-maintenance landscaping crew. Our goal is fewer problems between visits and less work for you.


Service Cadences

To keep your lawn looking its best, we offer flexible service cadences:

  • Quarterly: This includes a spring and fall deep clean, along with two tune-ups to keep your lawn healthy and thriving.
  • Bi-Monthly: Ideal for most yards, this schedule provides balanced care, ensuring your lawn receives the attention it needs without overwhelming maintenance.
  • Monthly: Perfect for high-visibility properties and rentals, this option keeps your lawn in pristine condition, ready to impress any visitors or potential tenants.

What’s Included

When you choose our aerating service, you can expect:

  • Core Aeration: We use professional-grade equipment to effectively aerate your lawn.
  • Soil Testing: An optional service to analyze soil health and nutrient levels, ensuring you receive tailored recommendations.
  • Fertilization Options: After aeration, we can apply a high-quality fertilizer to encourage robust growth.
  • Weed and Pest Control: We can also address any existing weed or pest issues during the aeration service.
  • Post-Service Guidelines: We provide you with simple care tips to help your lawn recover and thrive after aeration.

Why It Matters

Aerating your lawn offers numerous benefits:

  • Improved Soil Health: By reducing compaction, aeration enhances soil structure, allowing better water and nutrient absorption.
  • Enhanced Grass Growth: Your grass will have better access to air, water, and nutrients, leading to a thicker, healthier lawn.
  • Reduced Thatch Build-Up: Aeration helps break down thatch, the layer of dead grass and roots that can suffocate your lawn.
  • Increased Resilience: A well-aerated lawn is more resilient to drought, disease, and pests, making it easier to maintain.
  • Curb Appeal: A lush, green lawn not only enhances your property’s appearance but can also increase its value.

How It Works

Our aeration process is simple and efficient:

  1. Quick Estimate: We provide a clear, upfront pricing estimate through a photo/video assessment or an onsite visit.
  2. Set Your Schedule: Choose from quarterly, bi-monthly, or monthly service options that fit your needs.
  3. Service Day: On the scheduled day, our team will arrive to aerate your lawn, along with any additional services like pruning and edging if requested.
  4. Follow-Up: After the service, we’ll share care tips to help you maintain your lawn’s health and offer easy add-on services as needed.
