Professional De-Thatching

De-thatching is a lawn care service that removes built-up layers of dead grass, roots, and organic material that collect between the soil and the living turf. When that layer becomes too thick, it can interfere with healthy growth by blocking essential resources from reaching the root zone.

Bison Lawn Care provides professional de-thatching services for residential lawns. Removing excess thatch helps improve soil contact, supports stronger root development, and allows lawns to respond better to watering and seasonal lawn care.

Why De-Thatching Matters

A thick thatch layer acts as a barrier between grass and soil. This can lead to shallow root growth, poor drainage, and uneven lawn performance over time.

De-thatching restores proper contact between grass and soil, allowing water and nutrients to move where they are needed most. When done at the right time, it supports more consistent growth and improved overall lawn health.
