Yes, soil compaction is a frequent issue here due to heavy clay soils and foot traffic. We use core aeration to relieve compaction, allowing air, water, and nutrients to reach grass roots. For severe cases, we may recommend tilling and amending soil with organic matter. As general contractors, we can also regrade areas to improve drainage and prevent future compaction, ensuring a healthier lawn long-term.
