What the job involves
Lawn aeration and lawn coring from North Brisbane and Moreton Bay to the Sunshine Coast, to open up compacted soil so water, air and nutrients can reach the roots.
From Aaron:
We offer two kinds of lawn aeration. Core aeration lifts a plug of soil out of the ground so amendments can get into it. Spike tines make holes without lifting soil out, for when you do not want the surface disturbed much.

Before you book lawn aeration in Bracken Ridge
What lawn coring does
Core aeration takes a plug of soil out of the lawn. Lawn Solutions Australia explains that this makes more space in the soil for the lawn to breathe and take up nutrients, and makes the soil more permeable.
With the plugs out, amendments can get down into the soil instead of sitting on top.
After coring
Lawn Solutions Australia suggests top dressing with washed river sand once the lawn has been cored. The sand fills the holes, and its open, free-draining structure lets air and water keep moving through.
Getting a quote
Lawn coring is quoted on the site conditions, including whether it is one big area or a lot of small ones. The total area counts, but it is only part of the price, so every lawn gets its own assessed quote.
Send photos of the lawn through the quote form, with the suburb and how wide the access is. You get a same-day response.
Common questions
Why aerate a compacted lawn?
The Queensland Government explains that compacted soil loses the air spaces that water, gases and plant roots need to move through it, and that less rain and irrigation water gets into the ground. Lawn Solutions Australia notes that compaction limits how much water and nutrient reach a lawn's roots, and that coring makes more space in the soil for the lawn to breathe.
Should I choose coring tines or spike tines?
It depends on the lawn. Spike tines do not remove any soil, and Lawn Solutions Australia recommends core aeration where the ground is particularly hard and compacted. We offer both: coring when the soil needs opening up, and spike tines when you do not want the surface disturbed much.
