Remove the Layer That’s Holding Your Lawn Back
Thatch is a dense layer of dead grass, roots, and organic material that accumulates between your lawn’s soil and living grass. While a thin layer of thatch can be beneficial, excessive buildup prevents water, nutrients, and air from reaching the roots, which can weaken your lawn and make it more susceptible to disease, pests, and drought.
Kampmeier Lawn Care offers professional thatching services to remove this barrier and give your grass the foundation it needs to grow healthy, strong, and vibrant.
Why Thatching Is Important
Removing excess thatch helps your lawn in multiple ways.
Our professional crews use specialized dethatching equipment that carefully removes the excess layer without damaging healthy grass, leaving your lawn ready to thrive.

When to Dethatch
The best time to dethatch depends on your grass type:
- Cool-season grasses (fescue, bluegrass, ryegrass): Early fall or early spring.
- Warm-season grasses (zoysia, Bermuda): Late spring or early summer.
Dethatching at the proper time ensures minimal stress on your lawn while maximizing recovery and growth. After dethatching, we often recommend aeration and overseeding to further enhance your lawn’s health and thickness.
