Restore Your Lawn

Summer can be tough on fescue lawns throughout Virginia, Maryland, and the DMV area. Heat, dry conditions, foot traffic, pets, and everyday use can leave your yard compacted, thin, and filled with bare spots. Fescue does not spread across bare areas the way some other grasses do. When sections of your lawn become thin or damaged, new grass seed is needed to fill in bare spots.

That is where PestNow can help. Our core aeration and overseeding service gives your lawn the support it needs to recover. We remove small plugs of soil to loosen compacted areas and create openings where air, water, nutrients, and grass seed can reach the soil more easily.

After aerating, we overseed the lawn to help fill thin and bare areas with new fescue growth. Together, these services help build a fuller, stronger lawn.

Give Your Lawn a
Fresh Start This Fall

Fall is one of the most important times of year for fescue lawn care. Cooler temperatures and warm soil create better conditions for grass seed to germinate and develop roots before winter.

Scheduling your fall aeration and seeding service can help:

  • Loosen compacted soil.
  • Improve airflow and water movement into the root zone.
  • Repair thin and bare areas caused by summer stress.
  • Encourage stronger and deeper root growth.
  • Improve the overall thickness of your lawn.
  • Help your turf better handle future heat, drought, and foot traffic.
  • Create a dense lawn that leaves less room for weeds to grow.

We’ve been using PestNow for over 10 years. We’ve been very happy with them. They employ some of the best people. We use them for bug/pest control, termite inspection/annual policy, and most recently for our lawn fertilizer and they’ve done a great job (we’ve had past company’s burn our lawn with chemicals). Whenever we call to schedule an appointment they are very prompt and always answer the phone. If we ever have ants inside or outside they are quick to come out and take care of it.
