Affordable Lawn Dethatching for a Lush Landscape
Removing excess thatch improves air, water, and nutrient penetration, leading to a healthier, more resilient lawn.
A thick layer of thatch, yellowing grass, or poor drainage indicates it may be time for dethatching.
Late fall and early winter are optimal for dethatching, especially before winter dormancy or the start of the growing season.
Power rakes and dethatching blades are common tools used to effectively remove thatch buildup.
