Core Aeration in Georgetown, TX
Give Your Lawn Room to Breathe and Grow
If your lawn feels hard, patchy, or just won’t green up the way it should, compacted soil may be the problem. Our lawn care & maintenance company in Georgetown, TX offers core aeration to break up that compaction and help your grass thrive—especially in our tough Central Texas clay soil.
We’ve helped plenty of Georgetown homeowners bring their lawns back to life by simply giving the roots what they need: room to breathe and better access to water and nutrients.
What Is Core Aeration—and Why Does It Matter?
Core aeration is the process of pulling small plugs of soil from your lawn to relieve compaction and promote deeper root growth. It might sound simple, but it makes a big difference.
Loosens Soil and Improves Drainage
Over time, Texas heat and foot traffic pack your soil down. Aeration loosens things up, allowing water to reach the roots where it belongs.
Helps Roots Absorb Nutrients
Once the soil opens up, your lawn can better absorb sunlight, fertilizer, and rainwater—all essential for thick, healthy grass.
Reduces Thatch Buildup
Aeration helps break down thatch (the layer of dead grass and debris that builds up on the surface), which can block nutrients and trap moisture.
Pairs Perfectly With Top Dressing
For even better results, we often recommend following core aeration with top dressing. The compost settles into the holes, feeding the roots right where they need it.
When Should You Schedule Aeration in Central Texas?
The best time for core aeration is between March 1 and September 1—when your lawn is actively growing and can quickly recover.
This is also the prime season for pairing aeration with our top dressing service, which boosts nutrients and encourages lush, even growth.

Core Aeration FAQ
How do I know if my lawn needs aeration?
If your soil feels hard underfoot, water pools on the surface, or grass isn’t growing well, aeration is a good first step.
Will this damage my irrigation system?
If unmarked irrigation is damaged, we can certainly repair the irrigation or recommend a provider that can.
Do I need to water before or after?
Watering lightly a day or two before helps the tines penetrate better. We’ll give you clear prep instructions before we schedule your service.
Do I need to mow beforehand?
It’s best to mow 1–2 days before your appointment. That makes it easier for our crew to do thorough work.
