A beautiful lawn starts below the surface. At Preme Landscaping & Lawn Care, our aeration and overseeding service is designed to bring life back to tired, compacted yards. By loosening the soil and introducing fresh, high-quality seed, we give your lawn the boost it needs to grow thick, resilient, and green.
Many homeowners ask, “Is aeration and overseeding worth it?” The short answer: absolutely. This simple seasonal treatment helps your lawn breathe, improves water and nutrient absorption, and fills bare spots naturally, without relying only on fertilizers.
Why Aeration & Overseeding Matters
When your soil becomes compacted, grass roots struggle to absorb water, oxygen, and nutrients. Overseeding alone won’t fix that. That’s why pairing it with aeration is so effective, it creates small channels in the soil where seeds can settle and thrive.
- ✅ Stronger Roots – Deep root growth for long-term health.
- ✅ Thicker Grass – Overseeding fills thin, patchy areas.
- ✅ Better Nutrient Flow – Aeration opens the soil for water and fertilizer to reach roots.
- ✅ Weed Resistance – A thick lawn naturally crowds out weeds.
- ✅ Improved Appearance – A denser, greener lawn that looks professionally cared for.
When is the Best Time for Lawn Aeration & Overseeding?
Timing is everything. For most Kenosha lawns, fall aeration and overseeding delivers the best results, cooler temperatures and consistent moisture create the perfect conditions for new grass seed to thrive. Spring can also be effective if overseeding is combined with proper care and fertilization.
Aeration & Overseeding Cost – What to Expect
Homeowners often wonder about the aeration and overseeding cost. While pricing depends on lawn size and condition, the value is clear, this single service reduces the need for expensive weed treatments and patch repairs later on. Think of it as an investment in your lawn’s long-term health.

How We Do Aeration and Overseeding
At Preme Landscaping, we follow a proven step-by-step approach to make sure your lawn gets the full benefits of aeration and overseeding. We begin by inspecting your yard to identify compacted areas and thinning spots. Using professional core aerators, we pull small plugs of soil to open pathways for air, water, and nutrients. Right after aerating, we spread premium grass seed evenly across your lawn so the seed settles into those fresh openings and makes direct contact with the soil. To maximize growth, we can also apply a starter fertilizer that nourishes new seedlings. Finally, we provide you with simple watering and care instructions to ensure your new grass establishes quickly and blends seamlessly into your existing turf.
- Soil inspection – Identify compacted areas and problem spots.
- Core aeration – Pull out soil plugs to allow oxygen, water, and nutrients to penetrate.
- Seed application – Distribute high-quality grass seed directly into aeration holes.

- Customized seed blend – Match grass type to local climate and soil for lasting results.

Aftercare checklist
- Immediate (first 2 weeks):
- Keep soil consistently moist, light watering 1–2x daily (morning + evening) until seeds germinate.
- Avoid heavy foot traffic on seeded areas.
- After germination (2–6 weeks):
- Water less frequently but deeper to encourage roots (2–3x/week depending on weather).
- First mow when new grass reaches ~3–3.5″ — set mower high.
- Ongoing (6+ weeks):
- Wait 6–8 weeks before heavy use; avoid dethatching and other aggressive work for a month.
- Follow recommended fertilization schedule (we can provide a plan).
- Monitor for weeds; thin turf can be spot-seeded next season.
- Quick tips:
- Don’t bag clippings the first few mows — leave light clippings to return nutrients.
- Keep pets off seeded areas when possible for 2–3 weeks.
- If you have an irrigation system, set shorter, more frequent cycles initially; we can help program it.
