Core Aeration in Fort Worth
North Texas clay compacts hard, choking roots and causing runoff. Core aeration pulls thousands of small plugs so air, water, and nutrients reach the root zone — the best single thing you can do for a struggling lawn before the growing season.
What's included
- Core (plug) aeration pass
- Best paired with overseeding/feeding
- Improves drainage on clay soil
- Timed to your grass's growth window
