“Aerating your lawn can increase fertilizer uptake by 50% — a secret weapon for healthier grass!”

If your lawn looks tired, patchy, or compacted, aeration combined with top dressing is exactly what it needs. In Oakville, Burlington, Mississauga, Milton, and Hamilton, these treatments revive your turf, improve soil health, and prepare it for new growth.

What is Lawn Aeration?

Aeration means creating small holes in your lawn to allow air, water, and nutrients to reach the roots. This reduces soil compaction, encourages root growth, and helps your lawn recover from heavy use.

Why Top Dressing Matters

Top dressing is the application of a thin layer of nutrient-rich soil mix on your lawn. It helps smooth uneven spots, improves drainage, and adds organic matter to boost soil fertility.

When to Aerate and Top Dress

In Ontario’s climate, the best time is spring or early fall. Sodfather recommends scheduling these treatments seasonally for maximum effect.
