Healthier, Greener Grass Starts Here
A thriving, lush lawn requires more than just regular mowing and watering. Over time, soil naturally becomes compacted due to foot traffic, vehicles, and seasonal weather conditions. This prevents air, water, and nutrients from reaching the roots, leading to weak, thinning grass.
At Warrior Landscaping, we specialize in professional core aeration and fertilization for residential, rural, and commercial properties with large lawns. With over 100 five-star Google reviews, our commitment to quality and customer satisfaction has made us a trusted choice for property owners in Caledon, Orangeville, Mono, Grand Valley, and Erin.
Why Lawn Aeration & Fertilization Matter
-
- Reduces soil compaction – Loosens the soil to improve root growth and nutrient absorption.
- Enhances water retention – Allows moisture to penetrate deep into the roots.
- Encourages thick, healthy turf – Promotes new growth for a greener, denser lawn.
- Reduces thatch buildup – Prevents dead grass from suffocating your lawn.
- Strengthens grass against drought and stress – A well-fed lawn is more resilient.
We recommend aerating twice per year, in the spring (April-May) and fall (September-October), followed by a fertilizer application for optimal results.

Questions About Aeration & Fertilizing?
Have questions about lawn aeration and fertilization? You're not alone. Many property owners want to know how these services work, why they’re important, and how often they should be done. Below, we’ve answered the most common questions we receive about aeration and fertilization so you can make an informed decision for your lawn.
We recommend aerating and fertilizing twice per year—once in the spring (April-May) and again in the fall (September-October). This schedule ensures your lawn stays healthy, reduces compaction, and receives the nutrients it needs to thrive.
Aeration loosens compacted soil, allowing air, water, and nutrients to reach the grass roots. Fertilization replenishes essential nutrients, promoting deeper root growth and a thicker, greener lawn. Together, these services improve lawn health, reduce thatch buildup, and increase resistance to drought and disease.
Signs your lawn needs aeration include:
- Water pooling on the surface instead of soaking in
- Grass that looks thin, patchy, or struggles to grow
- A spongy or bouncy feel due to thatch buildup
- Heavy foot traffic, vehicle use, or equipment on the lawn
The soil plugs left behind will naturally break down within a few weeks, returning organic material back into the soil. This process improves soil structure and nutrient availability.
Yes, but it’s best to wait at least 24-48 hours after the service. This gives the fertilizer time to absorb into the soil and prevents disturbing the aeration holes.
Yes, watering helps the fertilizer soak into the soil and encourages root growth. We recommend light watering the day after service and maintaining regular irrigation to keep your lawn hydrated.
Yes, aeration improves water absorption and soil permeability, which can help reduce pooling and improve drainage in areas where water tends to sit.
Absolutely. If your lawn is thin, weak, or struggling, aeration and fertilization can stimulate new growth and strengthen root development over time.
