Topdressing & Composting: The Key to a Healthier Lawn

At MSG Lawn Care, we combine two powerful techniques—topdressing and composting—to promote a greener, healthier lawn. These methods work together to enrich your soil, boost grass growth, and create a sustainable lawn care routine that’s better for the environment. We focus on delivering excellence and sustainability in all that we do. That’s why we proudly use WeCare Bulk Compost, a premium product from WeCare Denali, for our lawn renovation service

What is Topdressing?

Topdressing involves applying a thin layer of organic material, like Biosolid compost, across the surface of your lawn. This process improves soil structure, enhances nutrient availability, and helps your lawn recover from issues like thinning grass, bare spots, and poor drainage.

Why Combine Topdressing with Composting?

Topdressing with Biosolid compost is a highly effective method for lawn care. Here’s why:

Nutrient-rich soil: Biosolid compost is packed with essential nutrients like nitrogen, phosphorus, and potassium, which are vital for healthy grass growth. When applied as a topdressing, these nutrients seep into the soil, feeding the roots and improving overall lawn health.
Enhanced Soil Structure: Topdressing with Biosolid compost improves soil texture, helping with drainage in clay soils and moisture retention in sandy soils. This creates the ideal conditions for grass to thrive.
Boosts Microbial Activity: Biosolid compost encourages beneficial microorganisms in the soil, which break down organic material and help plants absorb nutrients more effectively.
Reduces Compaction: Over time, lawn soil can become compacted, making it difficult for air, water, and nutrients to reach the grassroots. Applying Biosolid compost as topdressing loosens compacted soil, enhancing air circulation and promoting root growth.
Promotes Sustainable Lawn Care: By using Biosolid compost in topdressing, you’re supporting eco-friendly lawn care practices that reduce the need for chemical fertilizers and pesticides.

The Topdressing & Composting Process

Assessment: We evaluate your lawn to determine its specific needs, such as soil type, compaction level, and nutrient deficiencies.

Soil Preparation: If necessary, we perform aeration or dethatching to ensure the Biosolid compost topdressing can deeply penetrate the soil.

Application: We evenly spread a thin layer of high-quality Biosolid compost across your lawn, allowing it to naturally integrate into the soil over time.

Watering: We follow up with proper watering to help the Biosolid compost break down and deliver its nutrients to the grassroots.

As a landscaper committed to quality, we ensure the Biosolid compost we use meets the rigorous Seal of Testing Assurance (STA) standards. STA testing is the gold standard in the composting industry, providing a thorough analysis of Biosolid compost quality and safety. This ensures you receive the best product for your lawn and garden.

Here’s how STA testing benefits your lawn:

Nutrient Content: STA tests measure vital nutrients like Nitrogen (N), Phosphorus (P), and Potassium (K)—just like fertilizer labels. These values guide how our Biosolid compost enriches your soil and promotes healthy plant growth.
Organic Matter: High organic matter content is key for improving soil structure, water retention, and aeration. STA testing ensures our Biosolid compost has the ideal balance to boost your lawn’s vitality.
pH Levels: The Biosolid compost’s pH is tested to guarantee it’s within the optimal range for plant health, ensuring it won’t disrupt soil chemistry.
Moisture Content: Biosolid compost with the right moisture content spreads evenly and integrates smoothly into your soil. STA testing checks for balanced moisture levels.
Stability and Maturity: Biosolid compost must be fully matured to deliver the best results. STA testing ensures that our Biosolid compost is stable, meaning it’s fully decomposed and ready to provide maximum benefits to your lawn and plants.
Contaminants: STA testing screens for contaminants, ensuring that our Biosolid compost is free of pathogens, weed seeds, or harmful substances that could affect your garden’s health.

Topdressing and composting are simple yet highly effective ways to restore and maintain your lawn’s health. At MSG Lawn Care, we’re dedicated to using natural, sustainable methods to give you a beautiful, thriving lawn that’s as good for the environment as it is for your home.

What is Loop?

Loop is an eco-friendly fertilizer made by cleaning, recycling, and transforming 100% of the waste and food that goes down drains and toilets. This sustainable process is what we proudly call the “Poop Loop.” Just like nature, our aim is to waste nothing! Loop is used by commercial customers on farms and forests to boost the growth of crops and trees. Before 2020, Loop was also made into Biosolid compost for urban areas and home gardens.

Loop improves soil health and productivity, benefiting people, plants, and the planet—both now and in the future. Unlike chemical fertilizers, Loop is environmentally sustainable and protects fish and wildlife by preventing nutrient runoff into water bodies. It also helps soil retain rainwater and runoff, acting like a sponge to prevent polluted water from entering Puget Sound, rivers, and streams.
