New Shoots Landscaping - Cincinnati's Top-Rated Landscaping

The most effective solution is core aeration. Our Cincinnati clay soils are prone to compaction, which chokes out grass roots. We use professional aerators to pull small plugs of soil, creating channels for air, water, and nutrients to reach the root zone. This relieves pressure, reduces runoff, and prepares your lawn for overseeding, leading to a thicker, healthier turf.

Moss thrives in our area due to shade, acidic soil, poor drainage, or thin grass. It's a symptom of lawn stress. We don't just scrape it away; we diagnose the root cause. Our service includes moss treatment, soil testing to correct pH imbalance, and recommendations for improving sunlight or drainage. We then overseed with shade-tolerant grass varieties to outcompete future moss growth.

Absolutely, and we often see this combination in Cincinnati. Our integrated approach starts with core aeration to address the compaction and improve the soil environment. We then apply moss control and, based on a soil test, amend the pH to discourage moss return. Finally, we overseed the newly aerated soil to establish a dense grass cover that naturally resists both moss and future compaction.
