Long Island's Dethatching Experts

Thatch is a thick layer of decaying plant material, roots and debris that is in the first 1 inch of the soil. Thatch build up and creates problems for your grass and the soil below by restricting the flow of water and nutrients. Thatch also creates optimal breeding conditions for mosquitoes, fungus and other pests. Improper mowing practices can add to the amount of thatch build up. If too much of the grass blades are cut off at any one time, it will add excessive clippings to the lawn that do not decompose before the next cut, leading to the build up of dead grass.

Mechanical dethatching utilizes a dethatcher or power rake equipped with small blades or tines that slice into the turf and breaks up the thatch layer. Doing this allows air, nutrients, water and fertilizer are now able to reach the soil.
