Thin lawn? Bare spots? Overseeding fills in weak areas and thickens up your turf for a yard that looks full and healthy. Best results when paired with aeration.

Aurora lawns thin out over time from heat stress, heavy foot traffic, drought, and just natural aging. Overseeding every few years keeps your lawn dense enough to naturally fight off weeds and stay green through Colorado's tough summers.
Overseeding after core aeration dramatically improves germination rates. The aeration holes give new seed direct soil contact instead of sitting on top of thatch. We recommend doing both services together in the fall for the best outcome.
We mow the lawn down before seeding so seed can reach the soil instead of getting stuck in tall grass.
Core aeration creates seed pockets and loosens the soil for better germination. Strongly recommended as a combo.
We spread quality grass seed appropriate for Aurora's climate in multiple passes for even coverage.
You'll water lightly 2-3 times daily for the first two to three weeks to keep the seedbed moist. We'll walk you through the schedule.
Pricing is based on your lawn's square footage. Most Aurora yards fall between $260 and $750 for overseeding alone. Aeration and overseeding combined is priced separately.
We use seed blends suited for Colorado's climate and soil, not whatever's cheapest.
We schedule overseeding at the right time. Fall is the window that gives new seed the best shot.
We walk you through exactly how to water and care for the new seed so it actually grows in.
We overseed lawns throughout Aurora, Centennial, and Foxfield. Call (720) 446-5303 or use our quote tool to get started.
Late summer through early fall is the ideal window, roughly late August through early October. Soil is still warm enough for germination, and cooler air temps reduce heat stress on new seedlings. Fall also means less competition from weeds compared to spring.
New grass typically germinates in 10-21 days. You'll see green fuzz appearing across the lawn within two to three weeks if watered consistently. Full establishment takes about 6-8 weeks.
Wait until the new grass is at least 3-4 inches tall before mowing, usually 4-6 weeks after seeding. Mowing too early can pull seedlings out before they've rooted.
