The Works – Lawn Restoration Package

The Works combines lawn thatching, core aeration, overseeding, and fertilization into one streamlined service designed to improve turf health, density, and long-term performance.

We begin by mechanically dethatching the lawn using single, overlapping passes to ensure thorough and even coverage. This process removes built-up thatch, dead grass, and moss while minimizing unnecessary stress to the turf. Opening the surface in this way allows the lawn to breathe and prepares it for new growth. All debris is thoroughly raked and placed in your yard waste container, compost bin, or paper lawn bags. Paper lawn bags are available for purchase if needed. Upon request, debris can also be piled in a designated location for homeowner disposal.

Next, we perform core aeration using a commercial-grade aerator. This process removes small plugs of soil and turf to relieve compaction and improve the movement of air, water, and nutrients into the root zone. The cores are left on the lawn to naturally break down over the following week. Aeration is a critical step, as it creates ideal openings for strong seed-to-soil contact.

Following aeration, we overseed at approximately 3 lbs per 1,000 square feet using a professional broadcast spreader. Applying seed immediately after aeration allows it to settle into the newly created holes, significantly improving germination and overall establishment.

The final step is the application of a commercial-grade starter fertilizer, formulated to support germination and encourage strong, healthy root development during the establishment phase.

Proper watering and care after service are essential to achieving the best results. Please review our Aftercare Page for detailed watering guidelines and post-service instructions.
