POWER RAKING

DESCRIPTION

Power raking and dethatching services are essential components of a comprehensive lawn care regimen, especially as your lawn transitions from winter dormancy to spring growth. These services involve removing dead debris, crust, and excess thatch that can accumulate on the surface of your lawn over time. By utilizing specialized equipment with fixed knife-type blades set at the appropriate height, power raking and dethatching gently slice through the surface layer of debris, opening up the lawn surface and promoting better air circulation, moisture penetration, and seed-to-soil contact. This process stimulates new growth, encourages thicker, healthier turf, and enhances the effectiveness of fertilizers and watering. As a result, your lawn can recover rapidly from winter dormancy, achieving lush, vibrant greenery that enhances the beauty and curb appeal of your property.
