Why Lawn Dethatching Matters
Thatch is the layer of dead grass, roots, and organic material that naturally accumulates between the soil surface and live grass blades. A thin layer is normal and even beneficial, but when it thickens beyond ½ inch, it begins to choke out your lawn by blocking water, nutrients, and air from reaching the soil. That’s where professional dethatching comes in.
At Paul’s Landscaping, we remove this excessive thatch buildup using specialized equipment, restoring your lawn’s ability to breathe and absorb nutrients. Regular dethatching enhances root development, boosts grass density, and helps prevent lawn diseases, making it a foundational element of sustainable lawn care.
