Similarly to core aeration and overseeding, dethatching is performed mid-Spring and mid-Fall. This time is ideal for dethatching as it allows the grass to recover quickly and allows new grass to fill in under the best conditions.

You should check your lawns thatch layer at least twice a year. Detaching services should be performed when the thatch is greater than 1/4 inch thick. We recommend at least once every other season, in conjunction with your lawn aeration and overseeding program. The average home typically requires this service once every other year.

Yes, while a technician is navigating the power rake, we have other crew members behind the machine cleaning up and hauling away any debris.

The service itself removes any dead grass from the lawn, which can result in more visible dirt; thus your lawn appearing barer. Seeing the exposed dirt proves that the dead thatch underneath was removed.  Now the soil will be ready to soak up the sun, rain, fertilizer and new seed it needs to keep it healthy and flourishing.

Our recommended routine includes dethatching, core aeration and then a general overseed of the lawn.

The order of these services won’t make a difference if appropriately performed using commercial equipment.

Dethatching is the process of removing the dead layer of grass at the soil’s surface. Core aeration is the process of pulling up plugs of compacted soil to allow for optimal saturation of light, water, and nutrients.

The grass should be less than 4 inches tall when performing this service. You should mow before detaching if your lawn is greater than 4 inches in length.
