Aeration & Overseeding
Revitalize Your Lawn with Aeration & Overseeding
A thick, green lawn starts beneath the surface. Aeration and overseeding are essential for improving soil health, enhancing turf density, and ensuring long-term resilience. Simply Turf’s advanced core aeration techniques relieve compaction and allow water, nutrients, and oxygen to reach your lawn’s roots, while premium overseeding fills in bare spots and strengthens your turf.
Why Aeration & Overseeding?
✅ Breaks up compacted soil by pulling 2-3 inch plugs, opening pathways for air, water, and nutrients.
✅ Encourages stronger roots by helping turf absorb essential nutrients for deeper, healthier growth.
✅ Enhances lawn density by filling bare spots and thickening existing grass.
✅ Boosts disease and drought resistance with newly seeded grass that improves color, strength, and resilience.
✅ Ideal for Northern Virginia lawns by repairing damage caused by foot traffic, stress, and seasonal changes.

Everything you need to know at a glance
Most clients choose to aerate and overseed every year to maintain optimal lawn health and appearance. However, some opt to do it every other year depending on their lawn's condition and specific needs.
Before the service, ensure your lawn is free of leaves and other debris and water the lawn if the soil is dry. After the service, we recommend watering daily for 10-14 days to keep the soil moist and help the new seed germinate. Avoid mowing for about two weeks or until the new grass reaches a height of 3 inches.
We perform aeration and overseeding in the fall, from September through October. Fall is ideal because cooler temperatures and increased moisture help the new seed germinate and thrive while minimizing stress on the existing grass.
Overseeding involves spreading high-quality grass seed over your existing lawn to fill in bare spots, increase turf density, and introduce improved grass varieties. This leads to a greener, healthier lawn that’s better at resisting weeds, pests, and diseases.
