How Does Aeration Work?

Aeration works by removing small plugs of soil from your lawn to reduce compaction and allow air, water, and nutrients to reach the roots more easily. This process helps your grass grow deeper, stronger roots—leading to a healthier, thicker lawn over time. At Just Right Lawns, we use professional aeration equipment and follow a proven process designed for Texas soil and seasonal needs. Here's a more detailed look:

  • Core plugs are removed using specialized equipment, creating small holes across your lawn’s surface.
  • Soil compaction is relieved, making it easier for roots to expand and absorb nutrients.
  • Air and water flow improves, helping your grass recover from stress and grow more evenly.
  • Thatch is broken up, preventing buildup that can block moisture and nutrients.
  • The removed plugs naturally break down, returning organic matter to the soil.

Our spring aeration service is designed to give your lawn the best start to the growing season. Whether your yard needs a refresh after winter or consistent care as part of your lawn program, we’re here to help.

Frequently Asked Questions

Do I need to water my lawn before or after aeration?

Yes, it is very important to water 24 hours before if conditions are dry to soften the soil, and again after to help roots recover and plugs decompose.

How do I know if my lawn needs aeration?

If your lawn has clay soil, foot traffic, or feels compacted, aeration allows air, water, and nutrients to reach the grassroots, resulting in healthier, more resilient turf.

How long does it take to aerate my lawn?

Time varies depending on size and conditions. Usually 2 hours.

How often should I aerate my lawn?

Once a year, ideally in the spring or fall.

Will aeration make my lawn look messy?

Temporarily, yes. Aeration leaves small soil plugs on the lawn, but they break down naturally in 2–3 weeks and return nutrients to the soil.
