Why Power Raking, Aeration, and Fertilization Matter for a Healthy Lawn

A beautiful, lush lawn doesn’t happen by chance—it takes regular care, and three of the most important steps in any lawn care routine are power raking, aeration, and fertilization. Each plays a vital role in keeping your grass healthy, strong, and vibrant throughout the seasons.

How often should I aerate my lawn?

For Colorado’s compacted clay-heavy soils, we recommend aerating at least once a year—typically in the spring or fall—for improved soil health and root growth.

What is power raking, and do I need it?

Power raking removes built-up thatch (dead grass, roots, debris) that blocks water and nutrients. It’s especially beneficial in spring to help your lawn recover from winter.

Why is fertilization important?

Fertilization supplies essential nutrients that promote lush, green growth, help control weeds, and build a stronger, disease-resistant lawn.

What areas do you serve?

We proudly serve the Denver Metro area, including Aurora, Castle Rock, Parker, Highlands Ranch, and surrounding communities across Colorado.
