Frequently Asked Questions

Everything you need to know about Lawn Aeration in your city

What is lawn aeration and why do I need it?

Lawn aeration (core aeration) punctures the soil to relieve compaction, improve water and nutrient uptake, and help grass roots grow deeper. Compacted soil is common and aeration can transform a thin, stressed lawn.

What is core aeration vs spike aeration?

Core aeration removes small plugs of soil and is preferred by pros—it reduces compaction and doesn’t compress soil. Spike aeration pokes holes and is less effective. GreenPal pros typically use core aerators.

Do I need to water before or after aeration?

Watering the lawn a day before makes it easier to pull cores. After aeration, keep the soil moist if you overseed; otherwise normal watering is fine.

How do I pay for my lawn aeration service?

Payment is processed securely through the app after the job is complete and you’ve reviewed the work. You don’t pay until you’re satisfied.

Do I need to be home for lawn aeration?

No. Many customers aren’t home. Ensure access is clear and leave any gate codes or instructions in the app. Pros will complete the job and send photos.

Are lawn aeration and dethatching the same thing?

No. Aeration addresses compacted soil; dethatching removes dead grass and debris from the surface. Both can help your lawn—your pro can recommend what you need.
