Does your lawn have trouble with thatch build up? You may need to remove that material to allow water and nutrients to penetrate. 

Done properly, dethatching helps restore your lawn to a healthy state and helps keep it looking lush and green. 

Why is Dethatching Important?

Regular dethatching improves grass health by removing organic materials that accumulate over time. This layer of material is a combination of living and dead plant matter consisting of crowns, stolons, rhizomes and roots.

The process of dethatching rakes all that matter up so the soil is exposed again. This helps water and fertilizer get to the grass roots more effectively. 

When Should You Dethatch Your Lawn?

Typically dethatching is done in the springtime but can be done in the fall as well.
