Lawn Aeration, Thatching & Fertilization

Lawn Aeration, Thatching & Fertilization Service in Reno, NV

Why Your Reno Lawn Needs Aeration.


Reno's dense, compacted soil is brutal on grass. Years of foot traffic, mowing, and our dry high-desert climate pack the soil down until water, air, and nutrients can't reach the roots. The result: thin, patchy grass no matter how much you water.

Core aeration fixes that. We pull thousands of small plugs from your lawn, opening channels that let water, oxygen, and fertilizer get straight to the root zone. Within weeks, you'll see thicker, greener, healthier grass — it's the single most effective thing you can do for a struggling Reno lawn.

Enhance your lawn's health with our expert fertilization services. Committed to keeping our community green and gorgeous.

Our Aeration Process


1. Core aeration. We run a commercial core aerator across your entire lawn, pulling 2–3 inch plugs to relieve compaction.

2. Dethatching (when needed). If your lawn has a thick layer of dead thatch choking new growth, we power-rake it out so your grass can breathe.

3. Overseeding & fertilizing. We seed bare and thin spots and apply fertilizer so the open soil fills in with fresh, healthy growth.When to Aerate in RenoThe best times are spring (April–May) and fall (September–October), when cooler temperatures help new growth take hold. Most Reno lawns benefit from aeration once a year; heavily used or compacted lawns may need it twice.Why Choose MWV Lawn CareWe're a 5-star rated local company with 20 years of experience, and aeration is one of our most requested services — just ask our customers.
