If you’ve lived in Orlando a while, you know how the lawns here seem to have a mind of their own. One week they’re green and soft under your feet, the next week they’re patchy, tired, and begging for rain. Between the blazing heat, the sudden afternoon storms, and soil that drains faster than a theme-park soda, keeping your grass healthy here takes more than luck.
That’s where we come in. At Dr. Jack’s Lawn Care & Termite Control, we’ve spent decades helping Orlando homeowners nurse their lawns back to life. We know the smell of wet soil after a summer storm. We’ve seen St. Augustine grass come roaring back after being nearly fried by the sun.
When your soil gets compacted, and trust us, it will, the grass can’t breathe. The roots suffocate, the water runs off, and the whole lawn starts to feel flat. Core aeration pokes little holes through that barrier so air, water, and nutrients can finally sink in again.
Once the ground can breathe, overseeding fills in those thin, worn spots with fresh, new growth. The difference is visible within weeks: thicker grass, deeper green, and that springy feeling underfoot that makes you want to walk barefoot.
For lawns that have seen a few too many seasons without a break, mechanical aeration digs a little deeper. It pulls up small plugs of soil, opening space for roots to spread and grow. Think of it as a reset button for your lawn’s foundation, a fresh start from the ground up.
Sometimes your yard just needs a little breathing room without all the plugs and mess. That’s where liquid aeration shines. It works below the surface, loosening the soil gently but effectively. You’ll see better drainage, stronger roots, and a healthier color, without disrupting your lawn’s surface.
Orlando lawns are built to handle heat, humidity, and the occasional hurricane. The trick is choosing grasses that love this weather as much as we do.
If you’re not sure what you’ve got, we’ll tell you, and show you how to make it thrive.
St. Augustine Grass: A Florida favorite, wide blades, rich color, and plenty of shade tolerance.
