Expert Lawn Dethatching in New Braunfels

Common signs include a spongy or springy feel when you walk on your grass, visible layers of dead material at the soil surface, poor water absorption, thinning or patchy grass, and increased weed or pest problems.

Most lawns benefit from dethatching every 2 to 3 years. However, the frequency depends on your grass type, soil conditions, and maintenance practices. Our experts can assess your lawn and recommend the best schedule for you.

Timing depends on your grass type. For warm-season grasses like Bermuda or Zoysia, late spring to early summer is ideal. Cool-season grasses should be dethatched in early spring or early fall. We’ll help you schedule the best time to minimize lawn stress.

When you partner with The Grounds Guys of New Braunfels, you’re getting more than just a service—you’re getting a customized lawn care solution. Here’s what to expect with our dethatching service:

• Lawn Assessment: We begin with a detailed evaluation of your lawn’s condition, thatch layer, grass type, and overall health. This helps us determine the best timing and method for dethatching.
• Thatch Removal: Using specialized dethatching equipment, we remove the excess layer of thatch from your lawn. This process opens up the soil surface, allowing air, water, and nutrients to reach the roots more effectively.
• Lawn Cleanup: After dethatching, we remove the thatch debris and clean up your lawn to ensure it’s neat and ready for recovery.
• Post-Dethatching Care: We recommend follow-up treatments such as aeration, overseeding, or fertilization—depending on your lawn’s condition—to maximize the benefits of dethatching.

In New Braunfels, timing dethatching properly is key to minimizing stress on your lawn. For warm-season grasses like Bermuda or Zoysia, dethatching is most effective in late spring or early summer, when grass is actively growing. Cool-season grasses should be dethatched in early fall or early spring.
