Nautical Mile Lawn Care | Professional Landscaping in Saint Clair Shores, MI

We specialize in core aeration, a crucial service for our local clay soils. This process removes small plugs of soil, relieving compaction to allow water, nutrients, and air to reach the grass roots. It's the foundational step to reviving a stressed lawn and is often combined with overseeding to fill in thin areas.

For bare patches, we recommend a tailored approach that starts with preparing the soil—often loosening compacted areas and adding quality topsoil or compost. We then use high-quality, region-appropriate grass seed and proper watering guidance to ensure new grass establishes strongly and blends seamlessly with your existing lawn.

Beyond regular mowing and watering, proactive aeration is key. We advise most Saint Clair Shores homeowners to aerate in the early fall. This tackles compaction before winter and gives grass seeds the best chance to germinate and establish deep roots, leading to a thicker, more resilient lawn that can better withstand our seasonal changes.
