Core Aeration Service Pricing
Most lawns in the South Raleigh suburbs sit on tight clay that sheds water and starves roots. A screened 70/30 greens mix top dressing adds organic matter right where it counts, smooths out the bumps, and feeds the soil slowly instead of all at once. We spread it evenly, work it into the surface, and time it with aeration and seeding when your lawn will get the most from it.

South Raleigh’s established neighborhoods sit on dense Piedmont clay that has compacted over decades of mowing and settling, choking off water and air. Core aeration pulls thousands of plugs to reopen the root zone, and combining it with overseeding or top-dressing revives turf that had gone thin and patchy.

Most lawns in the South Raleigh suburbs sit on tight clay that packs down hard and shuts out water, air, and roots. Core aeration pulls thousands of small plugs so the soil can finally breathe — rain soaks in instead of running off, and roots push deeper where it counts. We aerate to real depth, not a surface scratch, and time it with overseeding and top dressing so your lawn gets the most out of every service.
