Aeration
HOW DO I TELL IF MY LAWN NEEDS AN AERATION?
Is your grass thinning out, weakening, or growing less despite proper watering? Drought, disease, and pests can all be detrimental to weakened root structures. Healthy roots and grass blades that result from the aeration process may just be what you require if any of these problems sound familiar.
BENEFITS TO YOUR LANDSCAPE
Aeration involves perforating the soil with small holes to allow air, water, and nutrients to penetrate the roots of the grass. The aeration machines will pull 2-3” inch cores over your entire yard. This helps the roots grow deep and produce a stronger, more vigorous lawn. Over the course of our Utah winter, the wet soil gets weighed down with snow and ice. This will put pressure on your lawn’s root structure and crowns of the grass. Stressing the roots like this leads to less efficient watering as well as poor nutrient
uptake. This type of environment is not very friendly to beneficial microorganisms either. These beneficial microorganisms help with the breaking down of nutrients as well as water retention.
AERATION TIMING
Experts on Utah lawn care agree that your grass should be aerated at least once every year, usually in the early-mid spring. For a stellar lawn, and great roots, aerate again in the fall to break up the high
density of our native Utah clay-based Soil.
AERATION PROCESS
One of the most crucial turf-care activities you can do for your grass is aeration. We will efficiently aerate your lawn to reduce thatch and enhance soil structure. This in turn will aid in the formation of new growth pockets for strong roots and make it possible for water and fertilizer to reach the root zone of your grass. For best results, please leave the 2-3” dirt clods in your yard to allow them to re-incorporate back into the soil.
Tree Trimming and Pruning
Trimming is a process of removing dead or damaged branches, removing unhealthy growth, rubbing branches, or weak limbs. The benefits of trimming and pruning your trees are that it is good for the tree’s health, not only that but it makes your trees look great. Tree diseases or fungal infection will spread quickly in trees, pruning allows disease prevention or diseased parts to be removed.
Proper trimming of fruit trees allows the tree to provide better nutrients to the remaining branches, increasing the health of the tree and the size of the fruit. Pruning on fruit trees should be done in the early spring or late fall to ensure better fruit production. Other benefits of tree trimming are:
- Removes unwanted growth
- Helps shape your trees
- Protect trees from storms
- Prevents safety Hazards
Our experts at Greenland Lawn Care & Landscaping know how, when, and where to cut the tree, so you know your
tree trimming will be done properly to ensure the health of your trees.

Utah County Sod Installation
Sod is already grown grass with a layer of soil held together by the root system of the grass. Sod is great to use when seeds would blow away or when seeding a lawn would be expensive. It is a quick solution to make your Utah landscape design look fresh and new.
Sod has many benefits such as improving the cooling of your yard, it can also improve your water and air quality around your home. If you have erosion or flooding in the area, sod will improve the water drainage by diverting the water to the ground of the area instead of into the drainage system.
