Lawn Aeration / Coring
Aeration is one of the best things you can do for your lawn.
It involves removing small plugs of soil to relieve compaction, allowing oxygen, water, and nutrients to reach the roots more effectively. This helps your lawn develop stronger roots, grow thicker, and stay greener for longer.
Why Aeration Matters
Over time, soil becomes compacted from foot traffic, mowing, and Adelaide’s clay soils. Aeration creates channels so air and water can penetrate deeper, leading to:
We choose the right aeration method based on the season and condition of your lawn:
Hollow-Tine (Cored) Aeration
Aeration is included in our AAA Signature and AAA Advanced 12-month programs, or available as a one-off service.
BEST RESULTS: For the healthiest lawn possible, we recommend hollow-tine aeration at least once per year combined with our fertilising program.
Your lawn may look a little rough for 1–2 weeks after hollow tine aeration, but it will bounce back thicker and stronger.
Solid and hollow tine aeration should be combined with other lawn management practices. These include integration with fertilisation, weed control, top soil and mowing.
