Overseeding

If you're a homeowner whose lawn has suffered from drought stress, insect or disease damage, or shows signs of decline such as thin, sparse grass, bare patches, or lack of color, then lawn overseeding is a must. It's the best way to thicken your lawn, improve its health and appearance, and ensure it can resist damage from drought, diseases, and lawn-damaging insects.

The best time to overseed your lawn is in late summer to early fall. This period is perfect for germination because the soil is warm enough to support it, but the temperatures aren't too extreme for the tender new grass to develop before winter sets in. Soil moisture needed for germination is also more favorable during this time. If not completed in fall, spring is an alternate time, but it's recommended to do it as early as possible to allow seedlings enough time to establish before the summer heat begins.

At Lawnica, we highly recommend pairing this service with dethatching and aeration to get the best possible results for the summer season. Trust us, your lawn will thank you.
