Columbia’s neighborhoods are known for their tree-lined streets, community paths, and plenty of outdoor activity. With kids, pets, and constant foot traffic, it’s no surprise that lawns here get worn down and the soil becomes tight. When the ground is packed too hard, grass roots can’t take in enough water or nutrients.
A machine rolls over the lawn and pulls out small plugs of soil, leaving behind holes across the yard. These holes let air, water, and fertilizer go deep into the root zone. The soil plugs left behind break down naturally, returning nutrients back into the ground. Within weeks, most homeowners see thicker grass, greener color, and a lawn that bounces back faster after stress.
Howard County lawns often sit on clay-heavy soil. That, combined with summer humidity and frequent mowing, causes compaction. Add in neighborhood gatherings, sports in the yard, or just everyday traffic, and your grass doesn’t stand a chance without some extra help. Aeration breaks up the compaction so your lawn can thrive.
Fall is best, but spring works too if the lawn is struggling.
Many homeowners choose to seed right after aeration for faster results.
Once a year is enough for most lawns. Busy or compacted yards may need it twice.
No. The plugs disappear within weeks and help enrich the soil.
