Improve your lawn’s health and vitality with Professional Lawn Thatching Services from Lee’s General Landscaping and Yard Clean-Up. Thatching removes layers of dead grass and debris (thatch) that accumulate on the soil’s surface, allowing nutrients, water, and air to penetrate the roots and promote lush, healthy grass growth.


Service Overview

Lawn thatching is an essential process for maintaining a vibrant, thriving lawn. Over time, thatch buildup can choke your grass, preventing proper absorption of nutrients and water. Our expert thatching service clears the way for a greener, healthier lawn.

  • Removal of excess thatch using specialized equipment.
  • Disposal of thatch and debris.
  • Lawn raking to ensure an even and clean finish.

Best Practices:

  • Conducting thatching during optimal seasons (spring or early fall) to minimize stress on the lawn.
  • Using professional-grade dethatching tools to remove debris effectively.
  • Adjusting dethatching depth to suit grass type and lawn condition.
