Lawn Aeration in the Seattle Area 2007
November 2006 was one of rainiest months on record. Then December hit with severe cold weather and freezing temperatures. Over 200,000 residences lost power. After the freezing temperatures, the windstorms hit. January was cold and it snowed, turned to ice, and just hung around.
Lawn aeration calls started in early February, with clients and new customers requesting priority placement in my Spring lawn aeration program. Aerating-Thatching Company is located in Seattle and can be found on the web at www.aerating-thatching.com.
Seattle Spring lawn aeration works best when combined with a starter fertilizer and a higher quality seed mix. We combine all three services for $119.99 for up to 3,500 sq.ft of lawn. This really helps speed repair of winter-damaged lawns. The average cost of lawn aeration in Seattle is $39.99 for up to 3,500 sq.ft.
I have extensive education in turf management in Western Washington. The first turf class I attended was Golf Course Construction and Design in 1981, taught by Jerry Mackie at Bellevue Community College. In 1994 I majored in turf management at South Seattle Community College, taught by Steve Nord. After several years, I advanced to Clover Park Technical College and studied under a local golf course superintendent, John Ford. This class was for people employed in the golf course trade. I took the course twice during consecutive Springs. We toured many local golf courses and consistently had the best superintendents in the area for lectures and Q and A.
For several years I attended local seed and fertilizer suppliers’ seminars to continue my education. Then in 2004 I had the chance to study turf under Brian Skinner, President of Washington Association of Landscape Professionals (WALP). The classes were well organized, involved both seed and sod, and are currently available to those in the horticulture industry. All seed and fertilizer that is applied by Aerating-Thatching Company is golf course quality and purchased by the ton to help keep prices low. We have over 750 lawn aerating clients in the Seattle area.
