DETHATCHING
Lawn Dethatching Services
A healthy lawn needs proper airflow, water penetration, and nutrient absorption; and dethatching is one of the best ways to achieve that.
Dethatching removes the thick layer of dead grass, roots, and organic buildup (called thatch) that accumulates between the soil and your turf. When thatch becomes too dense, it blocks water, oxygen, and fertilizer from reaching the root zone, causing thin, patchy, or discolored grass.
Our dethatching services help restore your lawn’s natural health and create the ideal environment for strong, vibrant growth. It’s one of the most effective early-season services for lawns in Hudson, WI, River Falls, WI, and the St. Croix Valley.
Why Dethatching Is
Important for Your Lawn?
Over time, lawns naturally develop a thatch layer;
but once it exceeds ½ inch, it begins causing real problems.
Signs of excessive thatch include:
-
dry, spongy turf
-
poor color
-
thinning areas
-
increased disease or pest activity
Benefits of Dethatching:
-
Improves water and fertilizer absorption
-
Encourages thicker, healthier turf growth
-
Reduces lawn disease and pest risk
-
Prepares your grass for overseeding or aeration
-
Helps restore color and overall lawn performance
The best time for dethatching cool-season grasses (like the ones common in Wisconsin) is early spring or early fall, when turf is actively growing and can recover quickly.
