Hiatt's Lawn Service | Certified Landscapers in Rochester, IN

In our area, moss and dead spots are often caused by compacted soil, poor drainage, shade, and acidic conditions. Hiatt's helps by first diagnosing the specific cause on your property. We then implement solutions like core aeration to relieve compaction, adjust soil pH, improve drainage, and recommend appropriate grass varieties for shady areas to restore a thick, healthy lawn.

It depends on the extent of the damage. For isolated moss, targeted treatment and cultural practices often suffice. For larger dead areas, overseeding or sodding as part of a renovation may be necessary for a uniform result. We'll provide a clear, honest assessment and a plan tailored to your lawn's needs and your budget.

Prevention is key. We recommend a yearly program including core aeration to reduce soil compaction, proper seasonal fertilization to strengthen grass, and consistent mowing at the right height. For shady lawns, we may suggest pruning to increase sunlight. Our ongoing maintenance plans are designed to address Rochester's specific challenges proactively.
