🌿 Dethatching vs. Aerating: What Your Lawn Needs - Spring Lawn Care in Caledon and Surrounding Areas

Is your lawn struggling after winter? In Orangeville, Caledon, Erin, and surrounding areas, dethatching and aerating are key spring lawn care and mowing services.

As spring rolls in, your lawn may look patchy, dull, or compacted. That’s where dethatching and aerating come into play. But which one does your lawn really need?

Dethatching removes the layer of dead grass (thatch) that blocks water and nutrients. If your lawn feels spongy or you see a thick mat at the soil surface, it’s time to dethatch.

Aerating, on the other hand, helps loosen compacted soil. This allows better air, water, and fertilizer penetration to the grassroots—essential after a harsh Ontario winter!

✅ Pro tip: Many lawns benefit from both services in early spring for best results. Heritage Hollow Property Maintenance assesses your lawn’s condition and creates a customized care plan, including mowing, dethatching, and aeration.
