Overseeding

What is overseeding?

Overseeding is the planting of grass seed directly into existing turf, without tearing up the turf or the soil. It’s an easy way to fill in bare spots, improve the density of turf, establish improved grass varieties and enhance lawn color.

When's the best time to overseed?

Late summer or early fall is the best time to overseed lawns. Soil and temperatures are most favorable for the best seed germination and growth.

What are the benefits?

Overseeding newer turfgrass varieties into an older lawn can help it better withstand…

insects
disease
drought
shady conditions
heavy traffic

The investment in overseeding pays off by reducing the amount of fertilizer, water and pesticides required. Most importantly, a renovated lawn stays greener and looks thicker and healthier!
