Aeration and Seeding

Aeration & Seeding

Customized Aerating and Seeding Care For Michigan Lawns

Does your grass look brown, downtrodden, or weary? Then it might benefit from aeration. Aeration helps loosen the soil, letting your grass breathe, while seeding and overseeding help keep your lawn green and growing well into fall. Both are crucial to the health of your grass.

Two Common Aeration Methods In Southeast Michigan

Activities like playing, running, driving, and mowing can compact the soil over time, making it difficult for grass to grow. Aeration solves this problem. The catch? No two yards are alike, so Visionary Fertilization provides two aeration techniques based on your specific needs.

Core Aeration

Our team uses a machine to punch small holes in your turf, pull up plugs, and loosen thatch buildup to allow water and air to get in.

Liquid Aeration

Liquid aeration is less invasive for those with sprinkler systems or other buried devices. Our crews spray safe chemicals on the grass that soak into the soil, loosening it and breaking up thatch buildup. 

Signs You Might Need to Aerate:

  • Pooling Water
  • Brown Patches
  • Water Runoff

Overseeding Versus Seeding For Local Lawns


Seeding is done when there are patches of dead or missing grass, whereas overseeding helps make the grass thicker by adding seeds to an already full turf. Overseeding may seem like you’re going overboard, but it helps repair the damage you can’t see. 


Your yard takes a beating from compaction and pests, causing your turf to thin out and get taken over by weeds. Using several types of seeds that are resistant to insects, disease, and cool weather, Visionary Fertilization can keep your lawn healthy and green well into the cold months.
