🌱 Core Aeration vs. Aerovation 🌱

What’s the Difference?

We often get asked whether a lawn needs traditional core aeration or Aerovation. While both services help improve lawn health, they work in different ways.

🔹 Core Aeration
Core aeration removes small plugs of soil from the lawn, creating openings that allow air, water, and nutrients to reach the root zone.

✅ Removes soil plugs
✅ Relieves compaction
✅ Good for overseeding projects
✅ Allows for water and nutrient infiltration

🔹 Aerovation
Aerovation uses vibrating tines to fracture and loosen the soil without removing plugs. This creates channels for water, oxygen, and nutrients while leaving the lawn looking cleaner and causing less surface disruption.

✅ No messy soil plugs
✅ Relieves soil compaction, even severe compaction
✅ Improves water infiltration
✅ Excellent for sandy soils
✅ GREAT for renovations and overseeding projects
✅ Faster recovery and a cleaner appearance

🌿 Which is better??

Here in Sussex County, many lawns have sandy or sandy-loam soils, making Aerovation an OUTSTANDING option for improving root growth, water infiltration and seed to soil contact to ensure proper germination, all while keeping your lawn looking great.

We’re happy to help evaluate your property and recommend the best solution for healthier, stronger turf.
